The son of the Goron Chief, but never the heir, Dorzuma never lived under the expectation that he would one day lead Hyrule's Goron Tribe. His older, adopted brother Dormagoro, was the Chief's heir.

So what did Dorzuma do with his life? Went on to travel Hyrule as a bard. Writing songs and experiencing adventure throughout Hyrule without a care. But things changed when his eldest brother was killed while protecting Hyrule from the forces of darkness. When his father was later greatly injured during this same war, eyes began to fall on Dorzuma to lead.

This is a mantle that Dorzuma has yet to accept, as he does not feel ready and does not know if he even wants the position. So he continues to travel Hyrule, in search of answers.
