Darmani III

Darmani the Third is a principal Goron character in Majora's Mask.

Biography
In life, Darmani was a renowned Goron hero. He was considered the greatest warrior of his tribe and possible heir to the Goron throne. But he suffered a terrible accident when he ventured to Snowhead to find and stop the culprit that was causing the devastating winter that threatened his people. On his way to the temple, Darmani was knocked off the path and into the deep valley below by the blizzard caused by Biggoron and he lost his life to the jagged rocks below.

In death, he was doomed to haunt his somber grave in the local graveyard. He is full of regrets and feels sorrow for his people, for Darmani died trying to reach Snowhead Mountain. Link must heal his spirit by playing the Song of Healing to free him from his regrets. Darmani sees visions of when he was a renowned hero and the Gorons cheering him on; Link's face then appears and Darmani decides to leave Link his powers in a Goron Mask, allowing Link to transform into "Goron Link".

When spring returns to Snowhead upon the defeat of Goht, the Goron Elder announces to Link his plans to step down as patriarch of the tribe and hand the position over to Goron Link, whom he has mistaken as Darmani.

Trivia

 * Darmani also appeared to enjoy the Goron Races very much, according to the tribe elder's infant son.
 * Darmani resembles Darunia from Ocarina of Time.
 * Darmani has a scar on his stomach that is not featured on Goron Link. This may be a battle scar, or perhaps the wound from when he fell to his death.
