Name: Darunia
Age: Unknown
Nickname/Alias: None
Gender: Male
Race: Goron
Affliation: Good
Unique Traits: Sage
Personality: Is usually rough, but has a nice side to him. Is a big fan of dancing when played the right song by the Ocrinana. Is a very kind Goron.
Likes: Link and all the Gorons
Dislikes: Gannodorf, Gannon, Subterranean Lava Dragon, Volvagia
Weapons: Legendary Goron Hammer
Home Town: Goron City
History: King Darunia (dä'roo-nç'ä) is the leader of the Goron race and resides in Goron City. When Link first meets Darunia, he is upset because the cavern containing the Goron's food source is overrun by Dodongos and has been sealed off by Ganondorf as punishment for refusing to turn over the Goron Ruby (also known as the Spiritual Stone of Fire). Once he is cheered up by Link's rousing rendition of 'Saria's Song', a song he continues to enjoy for the rest of the game, his demeanour softens. He gives Link the Goron's Bracelet, allowing him to use bombs, and asks him to clear the Dodongos from Dodongo's Cavern. If Link completes this task, Darunia rewards him with the Spiritual Stone of Fire (Goron Ruby) and makes him his "Sworn Brother". (After amusingly trying to pat Link's shoulder but instead slams him into the ground.) After Ganondorf conquers Hyrule he threatens to feed the Goron race to the dragon Volvagia, who was killed long ago by a Goron hero, but has been resurrected by Ganondorf. When Link completes the Fire Temple as an adult, Darunia is awakened as the Fire Sage, and gives Link the Fire Medallion. Darunia also named his son after Link. Darunia, like many of the characters in Ocarina of Time, takes his name from a town in Zelda II: Adventure of Link; as this game precedes that one in the Zelda timeline, it may be more accurate to say, in Zelda canon, that the town takes its name from him.
