==Biography==
==={{MM|-}}===
In {{MM}}, Gorman is the middle brother of the [[Gorman Brothers]] and is the leader of the [[Gorman Troupe]],<ref>{{Cite|Gorman, leader of a traveling troupe / Has fine clothes, but a frightful face|Bombers' Notebook|MM}}</ref> a traveling group of performers scheduled to perform at the [[Carnival of Time]].<ref>{{Cite|Madame Aroma, I am Gorman.

==Appearances==
After finding out about their canceled performance, Gorman begins to regret his decision of abandoning farm life in order to enter the world of show business. He left his brothers and the ranch since he could not handle horses like his older brother, and could not take care of horses like his younger brother.<ref>{{Cite|Anyway, I'm just the despised second son!

===''Majora's Mask''===
[[File:Gorman.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Gorman at the Milk Bar]]
In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]'', Gorman has [[Gorman Brothers|two brothers]] that run a [[Gorman Track|racing track]] near [[Milk Road]]. On the night of the second day, Gorman is seen playing cards with the [[Twin Jugglers]], and informs that he will leave town together with the troupe since he can't expect anyone to attend their show anyway.<ref>{{cite|I have decided we will leave the town tomorrow. We can't expect anyone to attend our show.|Gorman|Majora's Mask}}</ref> Gorman shows to be more kind-hearted and benevolent than his brothers, despite seeming a bit frightful and rude when Link first talks to him.

When [[Link]] gets up on stage and plays the "[[Ballad of the Wind Fish#Majora's Mask|Ballad of the Wind Fish]]," Gorman is brought to tears, for it was that same song that he had heard at the Carnival of Time long ago and motivated him to enter the show business. By so doing, he had hoped to meet the [[Lulu's Mother|singers]] of the song.<ref>{{Cite|I entered show business because I heard this song at the Carnival of Time long ago... By doing performances, I thought maybe I'd get to meet the singers of that song...|Gorman|MM}}</ref> He apologizes to Link for booing and gives him the [[Troupe Leader's Mask]]. In {{MM3D}}, repeating this will result in Gorman giving him a [[Fishing Hole Pass]].<ref>{{Cite|Hey...I'm sorry I heckled you.

After finding out about their canceled performance, Gorman begins to regret his decision of abandoning farm life in order to enter the world of show business. He left his brothers and the ranch since he couldn't handle horses like his older brother, and couldn't take care of horses like his younger brother;<ref>{{cite|Anyway, I'm just the despised second son!

If Link performs the "Ballad of the Wind Fish" for Gorman the night before, on the night of the [[Second Day]] Gorman is seen playing cards with the [[Twin Jugglers]], and informs Link that he and the troupe will leave town the next day since they cannot expect anyone to attend their show anyway.<ref>{{Cite|I have decided we will leave the town tomorrow. We can't expect anyone to attend our show.|Gorman|MM}}</ref> He even offers Link a place to stay with his older brother, who he says is a nice guy, at the [[Gorman Track]].<ref>{{Cite|Aren't you going to flee? If you have nowhere else to go, you should seek refuge at the Gorman Track in the south. That is my brothers' ranch. My older brother...He's a nice guy.|Gorman|MM}}</ref>


Gorman becomes cheery after [[Link]] gets up on stage and plays the [[Ballad of the Wind Fish]] as a [[Hylian]], [[Deku Link|Deku]], [[Zora Link|Zora]], and [[Goron Link|Goron]]. Gorman is brought to tears, for it was that same song that he had heard at the Carnival of Time long ago and motivated him to enter the show business and have a chance to meet the singers of the Ballad of the Wind Fish.<ref>{{cite|I entered show business because I heard this song at the Carnival of Time long ago... By doing performances, I thought maybe I'd get to meet the singers of that song...|Gorman|Majora's Mask}}</ref> He apologizes for booing to Link and gives him the [[Circus Leader's Mask]]. 
In {{MM3D|-}}, starting at Dawn on the Second Day, if Link wears the Troupe Leader's Mask and talks to Gorman while he is sleeping in the [[Stock Pot Inn]]'s bunk room, Gorman requests Link to bring [[Mystery Milk]] from his brothers at their ranch in [[Milk Road]].  Link can proceed to talk to the brothers in the afternoon while again wearing the mask to obtain the Mystery Milk from them. The Mystery Milk spoils after 2 minutes, but if Link successfully delivers it to Gorman, he will let Link keep the [[Bottle]]. Link cannot play the "[[Song of Soaring]]" while delivering the milk, as Tatl says it will spill in the process.<ref>{{Cite|If you fly while carrying that, you'll spill it all over the place and make a huge mess! Nobody wants that!|Tatl|MM3D}}</ref> Delivering the milk to him again in a different cycle will yield a Fishing Hole Pass.<ref>{{Cite|Here, take this. It's just a small token of my gratitude. Go have some fun if you ever have the time to spare. It's relaxing.|Gorman|MM3D}}</ref>


Gorman's equivalent character from ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'' is [[Ingo]].

{{Figurines|TMC}}
After finding a tenant to his existing house, Gorman will have [[Mutoh]] and the [[carpenters]] construct a new house. Link can choose between [[Din (Oracle)|Din]], [[Farore (Oracle)|Farore]], or [[Nayru (Oracle)|Nayru]] for both houses. The girls that move into Gorman's properties will prepare for Link their respective [[Oracle Charms|Charm]]s. Though Gorman mentions a possible third house, it doesn't come to fruition. This means that Link must choose which two of the three girls he will help, and will only have access to these two charms. Gorman disappears when [[Vaati]] takes over [[Hyrule Castle]].
{{Term|TMC|Gorman}} appears in {{TMC}} as an aspiring real estate investor in {{Term|TMC|Hyrule Town|link}} and the author of ''{{Term|TMC|Gorman's Guide to Good Grub|link}}''.<ref>{{Cite|This week's top titles:<br/>#3 Learn to Like Your Like Like: A Good Guide to a Bad Pet<br/>#2 Gorman's Guide to Good Grub<br/>#1 Married to the Moblin|Sign|TMC}}</ref> When {{Term|TMC|Link|link}} {{Term|TMC|Kinstone Fusion|link|display=Fuses}} a {{Term|TMC|Red Kinstone|link}} with {{Term|TMC|Farore (Oracle)|link}} at the {{Term|TMC|Happy Hearth Inn|link}}, {{Term|TMC|Gorman}} gets the idea to rent his house in southeastern {{Term|TMC|Hyrule Town}} for extra money.<ref name="TMC Guide 102">{{Cite Guide|quote= |game= TMC|publisher= Nintendo|page= 102}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|Wow... I just had the best idea! I can rent out my house for some extra cash!|Gorman|TMC}}</ref> He asks {{Term|TMC|Link}} to broker for him, as he has strict criteria and cannot be bothered to search for a tenant himself.<ref>{{Cite|I'm trying my hand at real estate. Turns out, it's a total pain. Like right now, I'm looking for a tenant, you see? But the thing is, I can only rent to a woman, single occupancy. Too many tenants would make the place dirty. And they'd be loud. I like things nice and quiet, see? And this is all just too much hassle. If you find anyone who can rent this place, would you let me know?|Gorman|TMC}}</ref> {{Term|TMC|Link}} can show the house to either {{Term|TMC|Farore (Oracle)}}, {{Term|TMC|Din (Oracle)|link}}, or {{Term|TMC|Nayru (Oracle)|link}}.

After obtaining a tenant for his current house, {{Term|TMC|Gorman}} plans to build a second house one on the west side of {{Term|TMC|Hyrule Town|display=Town}}.<ref>{{Cite|I'll build here, I think...|Gorman|TMC}}</ref> {{Term|TMC|Mutoh|link}} and the {{Plural|TMC|Carpenter|link}} construct it for him after {{Term|TMC|Link}} {{Term|TMC|Kinstone Fusion|display=Fuses}} another {{Term|TMC|Red Kinstone}} with the {{Term|TMC|Carpenter}} {{Term|TMC|Bremor|link}}.<ref name="TMC Guide 102"/><ref>{{Cite|I'm feeling really motivated now! I could probably build a good-sized house in a matter of minutes!|Mutoh|TMC}}</ref> {{Term|TMC|Link}} can then have one of the remaining two {{Plural|TMC|Oracle|link}} rent that house. Afterwards, {{Term|TMC|Gorman}} can be seen standing south of the {{Term|TMC|Royal Hyrule Library|link}}, near an enclosure containing two {{Plural|TMC|Cat|link}}. He considers breeding pets with the money he made from his rental properties.<ref>{{Cite|I've lined up a sizable pile of cash from my rental properties... Maybe I should start breeding pets next.

==Trivia==
*In the European version of {{TMC|-}}, {{Term|TMC|Gorman}} mentions he is considering building a third house over the cat enclosure in town,<ref>{{Cite|I'm sure I could build a new place here if I could get rid of these cats... Moohahaha!|Gorman|TMC}}</ref> though he never does. This comment was replaced in the American version, which was released two months after the original Japanese and European versions.
*In {{MM3D}}, if {{Term|MM3D|Link|link}} does the {{Term|MM3D|Mystery Milk|link}} sidequest on the {{Term|MM3D|Second Day|link}}, then does the sound check at the {{Term|MM3D|Milk Bar|link}} that night, {{Term|MM3D|Gorman}}'s remarks to the sound check will be different.<ref>{{Cite|Oy, you! Zora! Let us drink in peace tonight!|Gorman|MM3D}}.</ref> He will also be kinder when {{Term|MM3D|Link}} talks to him.<ref>{{Cite|...Oh, it's you. Thanks to you I was able to tell everyone the truth. I feel better with all that off my chest. Everyone was very understanding. I'm sure they'll each be spending some alone time tonight. We're travelling entertainers. That means tomorrow we'll be heading off to the next town. Guess I'd better not go overboard and tire myself out tonight...|Gorman|MM3D}}</ref>
*{{E}} claims erroneously that {{Term|MM|Gorman}} is the eldest of the brothers.<ref>{{Cite Book|quote=|book=E|publisher=|page=142}}</ref>
