'''Gorons''' are rock-like creatures that made their first appearance in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]''. They are brown/gold mountain dwelling creatures that are made out of rock and feed on rock. They haven't changed much throughout the series and appear to be the same mountain-dwelling race in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword|Skyward Sword]]'' as they have been before.

They haven't changed much throughout the series and appear to be the same mountain-dwelling race throughout all titles. All Gorons refer to themselves and each other as male; many Gorons have mention having brothers, fathers and sons, but no mothers or sisters.

[[Darunia]], the leader of the Gorons, is very angry because his people are starving thanks to [[Ganon|Ganondorf]], who blocked the entrance to [[Dodongo's Cavern]], the Gorons main source of food, after the Gorons wouldn't give him their Ruby. Link goes into Dodongo's Cavern, defeats the monster ([[King Dodongo]]), reverses Ganondorf's curse and retrieves the Goron's Ruby. Darunia then makes Link a Sworn Brother and later names his son after Link.

Aside from all the normal Gorons, there are a few notable ones who differ in color and status, two of which are the [[Graceful Goron]]s of the Past and Present. In each era, there is a Graceful Goron who Link can dance with. If Link does well enough during the dance, he is rewarded with a prize. The first generation Graceful Goron of the Past, notable for his red-colored skin, gives Link the [[Mermaid Key]] once he shows him the Letter of Introduction. The fifth generation Graceful Goron of the Present, whose skin is blue, rewards Link with the [[Brother Emblem]] if he dances well enough. This item allows Link to access additional areas throughout Rolling Ridge.

A third different-colored Goron is known as the [[Goron Prophet]], who has a distinctive green color to his skin. This Goron can be found in both the Past and Present in the [[Goron Dance Hall]], even though it seems that they are different generations of Goron Prophet. They can apparently predict the future, and does so for Link if he talks with them.

===The Minish Cap===
In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap|The Minish Cap]]'', the Gorons seem almost extinct and very few are encountered throughout Link's journey. A Goron can be found in [[Lon Lon Ranch]] working on digging up a cave. Link is able to fuse a [[Blue Kinstone]] with this Goron, which causes the [[Goron Merchant]] to appear in [[Hyrule Town]]. Later on in the quest, Link is able to fuse Kinstones with strange walls, found within caves. Doing so causes additional Gorons to appear by the cave in Lon Lon Ranch. When Link has successfully fused Kinstones with all strange walls, a total of six Gorons appear and it ultimately leads to acquiring a [[Bottle]].

In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]'', Gorons live in Goron City on Death Mountain. When Link gets there in order to free [[Divine Beast]] [[Vah Rudania]] and the Spirit of [[Daruk|Goron Champion]], he meets [[Bludo]], the Goron Boss, who tells him he needs to find [[Yunobo]], a descendent of Daruk. Once Link does this, he discovers that Yunobo can, as a descendant of Daruk, use [[Daruk's Protection]]. He and Yunobo go to drive back Vah Rudania, and Link goes inside to free the Divine Beast.
