[edit] Biography
Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.
As Darmani ventured to Snowhead Temple to defeat Goht, he was blown off the narrow path in the valley outside the temple by Biggoron, and perished. His ghost lingered throughout Snowhead and the Goron Village until Kaepora Gaebora visited him and told him he would be helped by one who could see his spirit. This person later turned out to be Link, who could see him with the power of the Lens of Truth.
Upon meeting him, Darmani leads Link to the Goron Graveyard, where Link plays the "Song of Healing" to put Darmani's spirit to rest inside the Goron Mask. When Link puts the Goron's Mask on, Darmani's spirit transforms Link into a Goron - so similar in appearance to Darmani himself, that upon seeing him most Gorons would mistake Link for Darmani. Link also gains all of Darmani's fighting abilities, listed below, and the ability to play the Drums of Sleep.
When Link defeats Goht and brings the perpetual winter to an end, the Goron Elder announces his plans to make Darmani the new Goron Patriarch.
Later in the game, when Link learns and plays the "Elegy of Emptiness", his Goron form it will create a shell that looks like Darmani.

[edit] Grave marking
The Goron hero, Darmani the third rests here.
In honor of a great hero this memorial is inscribed with the knowledge of a great hero.
[edit] Techniques for action
Oh chosen Goron hero!
Your power to lift objects without effort is mightier than the strength of any other.
And your heart is strong too, as it is filled with compassion that is kinder than any other.
Goron heros press A and the control stick so that they may curl up and roll wherever it is that they may need to go.
If Gorons who possess magic power roll swiftly enough, spikes will emerge from their bodies so that they may mow down enemies.
Water is disastrous for Goron heros, for they sink like stones and are rendered motionless in the deep.
Beware.
[edit] Techniques for battle
The powerful punch that Goron heros unleash by pressing B is feared by all.
By repeatedly pressing B Goron heros will deal out a barrage of punches.
After using A to curl up, a Goron can jump with B and land with quaking impact that is so mighty it can flatten enemies.
