==Biography==
Before the events of the manga took place, Darpa lived in a city that guarded the border of a desert. He and the other boys would practice sword fighting so they could one day defend Hyrule's borders.
Darpa confronts Link after he tells Zeu and Rioma that he will drive away the desert thieves left handed. Darpa says one of the thieves is a demon thief and tells Link not to get cocky with his sword skills. Rioma asks what Darpa plans to do. The boy says he has a plan to get a sword stronger than magic. This sword turns out to be the Gaurof Sword. Darpa, followed by Link, Zeu, and Rioma, enter the building where the Gaurof Sword is kept. Rioma reminds Darpa that they are not allowed near the weapon. Darpa says if he is scared of getting in trouble to go back. Link tells Darpa that thousands have tried to pull the sword from its stone but failed. Darpa says he heard it has the power to drive off a god and it is the right sword for him. Insults are thrown at Darpa as he tries to pull out the sword but fails. He tells Link to give it a try. When Link hesitates, Darpa says that if he pulls it out, he will be a hero. Link steps forward and successfully draws out the blade. However, the stone sucks the boys and the entire city into it, with Link as the only survivor.
In the manga's second volume, Wolf Link has a flashback showing Darpa with Rioma and Zeu, feeling despair that they were unable to protect Princess Zelda like they had trained to do.
