Darbus was the patriarch of the Goron tribe of Death Mountain. Along with the four elders, he kept order to the tribe. Darbus led the mining program of Death Mountain. One day, he led a mining expedition through the Goron Mines, and laid his hands upon the Fused Shadows, turning him into Twilit Inferno: Fyrus. Upon defeat, Fyrus morphed back into Darbus and became patriarch once again, seemingly remembering nothing of his time as Fyrus. When Link was to go to the Hidden Village, Darbus used his strength to destroy the pile of rocks blocking the entrance from a rockslide in the area.
