Background
Darbus was a a large and boisterous Goron who became the patriarch of Death Mountain's Goron tribe after Gor Coron stepped down to join the council of elders. He was known for his great pride, which caused him to become particularly ignorant about humans, but he still had a strong sense of moral duty. Darbus led the Goron Elders in investigating the Fire Temple due to strange occurrences. They checked on the Fused Shadow which had been entrusted to them by the spirits, but when Darbus touched it, he was possessed and transformed into the grotesque monster known as Fyrus. The Goron Elders had no choice but to seal him within an area of the temple to prevent him form wreaking havoc.
The hero Link eventually found Fyrus and defeated him in battle. This caused the Fused Shadow to separate from Darbus and returned him to his normal state. He was soon returned to the Goron tribe, but he had lost all his memory of the time that he was possessed. Gor Coron decided not to tell him what had happened, since he knew that Darbus would not like to know that he had been rescued by a human. Darbus had no idea who Link was upon their further encounters and actually teased him for humans' helplessness compared to Gorons. Darbus later helped Link by breaking through the rockslide which blocked the path to the Hidden Village, and he briefed Link about the enemies he would find there.
