Darunia is a character from ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time]]''. He is the [[Goron Patriarch|patriarch]] of the [[Goron]] tribe living in [[Goron City]] on [[Death Mountain]]. A tough ruler, he can often be perceived as rude; however, his responsibilities seem to be much of the cause of this. He is hesitant to accept outside help from [[Link]], but later on accepts him as his "brother" and bequeaths unto him the [[Spiritual Stones#Goron's Ruby|Goron's Ruby]].

{{Cat|Ocarina of Time Characters}}
Seeking the Spiritual Stone of Fire, better known as the Goron's Ruby, the [[Gerudo]] mystic [[Ganondorf]] demanded Darunia hand over the stone to him. Darunia refused and took the Goron Ruby away from its altar in the center of Goron City, and as a result, Ganondorf blocked the entrance to [[Dodongo's Cavern]], the Goron's main supply of food, with a huge boulder and filled the cavern with [[Dodongo]]s to deter the Gorons from obtaining food from the cave should they be able to dispatch of the boulder. As food was getting more and more scarce, Darunia feared for the survival of his people, and sealed himself and the Goron's Ruby within his throne room.

On a quest to obtain the Spiritual Stones in order to stop Ganondorf, the hero Link manages to open the way to Darunia's throne room by playing "[[Zelda's Lullaby]]" on his [[Fairy Ocarina|ocarina]]. The only ones with knowledge of the song are ones who represent the [[Royal Family of Hyrule]], and upon hearing it, Darunia thought his troubles were at an end. However, upon seeing that a child was all that the Royal Family had sent to his aid, he quickly brushes him off and refuses to help him. However, when Link plays "[[Saria's Song]]" for him, he begins dancing happily. He says weird things and tells you can play that "hot beat" any time. He gives Link the [[Goron's Bracelet]] to help him in his quest, and tells him that should Link be able to open the way to Dodongo's Cavern and wipe out the Dodongos inside, he will give him the Goron's Ruby. Link successfully manages to complete this task, and the impressed Darunia makes Link his "sworn brother", gifting Link with the Goron's Ruby as a symbol of their newfound connection. Darunia then summons two Gorons, who attempt to give Link a hug, causing him to run.
 
Shortly thereafter, Link inadvertently allows Ganondorf to touch the [[Triforce]], allowing him to use the power of the Triforce of Power to wreak havoc over [[Hyrule]]. Ganondorf revives the ancient [[dragon]] [[Volvagia]], a creature that was once vanquished by the [[Hero of the Gorons]] wielding a [[Megaton Hammer|hammer]]. The evil creatures of the [[Fire Temple (Ocarina of Time)|Fire Temple]] kidnap the Gorons, in order to feed them to Volvagia. Darunia travels to the Fire Temple to stop Volvagia. After waking up from a seven-year long sleep, Link travels to Death Mountain to find Goron City empty. He eventually talks to Darunia's son, [[Link of the Gorons]], who tells him about the situation. Link travels to the Fire Temple, and meets up with Darunia, who tells him that he is going to battle Volvagia, however, he does not have the legendary hammer. Link eventually recovers the Megaton Hammer and encounters Volvagia in the heart of the temple. Link defeats the evil dragon with the hammer, and after the last fragments of the dragon disappears, a bright light appears. Link is transported to the [[Chamber of Sages]], where it is revealed that Darunia has been awakened as the [[Seven Sages#Darunia, Sage of Fire|Sage of Fire]]. The Goron presents Link with the [[Six Medallions#Fire Medallions|Fire Medallion]] to aid him in his quest to defeat Ganondorf and save Hyrule.
