In Dalish stories Dirthamen gave the elves the gift of knowledge and taught them loyalty and faith in family. It was also speculated that he and Falon'din were twins, however, it is revealed that Dirthamen and Falon'Din were "twin souls" with no family connection. Their bond was not romantic, beyond even the strongest friendship. The oldest elven stories never even name them directly, referring to Falon'Din as "Dirthamen’s shadow," and Dirthamen as "Falon'Din's reflection." Together the twins accompanied the elders who would enter uthenera and walk the shifting paths in search of the secrets of dreams. Dirthamen provided such elves with counsel.
Other than this there is little told about Dirthamen, and while there isn't mention of him going mad or being blood-thirsty for followers, there is little doubt that he would have followed Falon'din with utmost loyalty, even if that meant murdering Mythal.
