The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask/Characters

Link


The Hero of Time that saved Hyrule in the previous game. He went into the Lost Woods to search for his fairy Navi. While searching, he was attacked by the Skull Kid with his fairy friends Tatl and Tael and lost his Ocarina of Time as well as his horse Epona. He then follows the Skull Kid into the land of Termina, where he has to summon the Four Giants to stop the moon from being dropped onto the land.

The tropes below only apply to this Link in this game. For more information on this Link, see the character sheet for Ocarina of Time.


 * Badass Adorable: He's still a kid, but he's definitely more badass now. He can use adult equipment (Bow, Hookshot) and does fancy flips and acrobatics when he jumps across platforms.
 * Baleful Polymorph: The first time he transforms into each of his forms, he will be seen writhing in pain while he morphs into the person whose soul the mask contains.
 * Be the Ball: One of Link's powers in his Goron form.
 * BFS: The Great Fairy's Sword.
 * Blade Below the Shoulder: Zora Link can use his arm-fins as weapons, or even as boomerangs.
 * Covert Pervert: Link could get used to this.
 * Cute Shotaro Boy: Link's base form is one of these. While he's not quite as much of a ladies man as he was in Ocarina, characters in game still find him cute.
 * Dead Person Impersonation: Each of the masks contain the soul of a dead person whom Link can take the form of when he wears the mask.
 * Deku Mask: (Hinted to be) Deku Butler's son
 * Goron Mask: Darmani, a famed warrior.
 * Zora Mask: Mikau, the guitarist of the Indigo-gos.
 * Elemental Punch: Goron Link's fire punches.
 * Infinity+1 Sword: The Great Fairy Sword.
 * The Ishmael: The game's focus is mainly on the many, many side characters, and not on Link himself. Link's own role in the game is more of a supporting character to all these side characters to move their own plots forward. Link is still The Hero in that it is eventually him who saves the whole world, and the main plot itself doesn't specifically focus on any certain characters aside from the main villain and Link, but the main focus of the game is on the sidequests, so he qualifies for this trope mainly due to this fact.
 * Morphic Resonance: The Deku form, Goron form, and Zora form all still wear Link's green hat and green skirt, boots and gauntlets, despite not acquiring the gloves until he's older...
 * Deku-Link also has Link's bangs.
 * Not Quite Flight: Link's Deku form lets him glide for short distances after being fired out of a flower.
 * Screw the Rules, I Have Supernatural Powers: Uses the power of Time Travel to commit bank fraud by saving his money up from previous timelines. As the Versus strategy guide puts it "the whole 'I'm going to stamp your bank balance on your forehead' system is just begging to be abused."
 * Super Drowning Skills: While in Goron form, who sinks like... well, a rock.
 * Super Not-Drowning Skills: Link's Zora form has this thanks to its gills.
 * Took a Level In Badass: He can use the Bow and Hookshot as a child now which could only be used as an adult in Ocarina of Time, does fancy flips when jumping across platforms, and he braves the dark, twisted land that is Termina. Even though he's still a kid. Link didn't smile much in Ocarina of Time, not even in the game's artwork. In most of the artwork for this game, the style of which is slightly shifted to reflect the game's dark nature, Link has an overconfident smirk on his face.
 * Voluntary Shapeshifting: Link has three forms he can shift into, Deku, Zora, and Goron.
 * Voluntary Shapeshifting: Link has three forms he can shift into, Deku, Zora, and Goron.

Tatl


The resident Exposition Fairy. Although she serves the same purpose as Navi, their personalities are Different As Night and Day. Tatl only reluctantly joins Link, and initially doesn't even care what happens to him. She interrupts gameplay a little less often than Navi did, and with a muted bell ringing sound instead of Navi's "Listen!" sound.


 * Aloof Ally: She at first only joins you because a door slammed in her face, and she frequently tells you that you should already know Ocarina of Time-era enemies' weaknesses. Because this was one of Navi's most useful features, it came across as a little annoying.
 * Anti-Heroine: Type II
 * Deadpan Snarker
 * Exposition Fairy: She's much less talkative than Navi.
 * Expy: Of Navi.
 * Fairy Companion
 * Lampshade Hanging: She frequently tells you should already know the weaknesses of a lot of the game's enemies. That's because this Link should.
 * Never My Fault: Tatl stops Link from following the Skull Kid, and as a result gets left behind by him. She blames Link.
 * Punny Name: Her brother's name is Tael. Put the two together and you get Tattle-tale.
 * Tsundere

Tael
Tatl's more kindhearted younger brother. He is forced to stay with the Skull Kid for the three remaining days but he still provides Link and Tatl with clues about how to stop the moon from crashing and, possibly, save the Skull Kid from Majora's Mask's control.


 * Dark Is Not Evil
 * Punny Name: His sister's name is Tatl. Put the two together and you get Tattle-tale.
 * Wide-Eyed Idealist: It says something that he still forgives Skull Kid for everything that's happened. Granted, he was right, but still.

Happy Mask Salesman


While he first appeared as a minor NPC in Ocarina of Time, the Mask Salesman became a more important character in Majora's Mask. It was he who was carrying the cursed mask when the Skull Kid stole it and he lets Link out of his Deku form in exchange for his promise to find it.


 * Ascended Extra: Compared to his role in Ocarina of Time.
 * Aloof Ally
 * Ambiguously Evil
 * Ambiguously Human: The children on the Moon look oddly like him...
 * Apathetic Citizen: He doesn't seem to care that the moon is crashing, he just wants the mask back. On the other hand though, he does express the concern that something bad will happen if the Skull Kid continues to possess the mask, so maybe he cares a little more than he lets on.
 * Beware the Nice Ones: He's a nice enough guy, but he flips his lid when he learns you didn't get the mask back.
 * Cheshire Cat Grin: Just look at him!
 * Hammerspace: Pulls out a freaking giant piano out of nowhere.
 * Magic Music: He teaches Link the Song of Healing, which allows him to heal troubled souls and turn their remains into masks.
 * Minion Maracas: The Happy Mask Salesman does this to Link, gaining angry eyes.
 * Shout-Out: Some of the masks he is carrying resemble Mario, Elvis, and Darth Maul.

The Four Giants
The guardian deities of Termina.

Mikau
Guitarist of Zora jazz band the Indigo-Gos and allegedly their top warrior. He is killed attempting to rescue bandmate Lulu's kidnapped eggs from the Gerudo pirates; his soul is used to make the Zora Mask.


 * Almost-Dead Guy: And his death scene is a supreme example of Mood Whiplash.
 * Fish Person
 * Hot-Blooded
 * Papa Wolf: As mentioned in Ship Tease, the eggs that he's the father of Lulu's eggs. When some Gerudian pirates steal the eggs, he attempts to rescue them. Unfortunately, it is heavily implied that the Gerudian pirates made sure he didn't recover them by brutally injuring him to the point of death.
 * Posthumous Character
 * Proud Warrior Race Guy: Not so much that the Zoras are a proud warrior race, but that Mikau is descended from a long line of them.
 * Ship Tease: With Lulu - it's all but stated that the eggs are also his.

The Owl


The wise old owl who shows up around Termina. Has a much smaller presence here than in Ocarina of Time, showing up only twice: once to teach you the Song of Soaring, and again to show you the invisible path to reach the Lens of Truth.

Romani and Cremia


Two sisters who run Romani Ranch together. Ever since their father passed away, Cremia has taken care of Romani by herself despite the hard times they have to go through such as dealing with the Gorman Brothers and the mysterious disappearances of their cows.


 * Alien Abduction: If you fail Romani's sidequest, she's abducted by aliens, along with the Cattle, and is returned on the third day traumatized.
 * Escort Mission: If Link saves Romani Ranch from "Them", he can help Cremia deliver some milk to town; and in the process, must drive off the disguised Gorman Brothers attempting to destroy the cart. (This becomes laughably easy if you wear the Gorman Mask... which you can only get after finishing the quest.)

 * Family Business: Both girls run the ranch together though Cremia does more work.
 * Farm Girls

 * I Want My Beloved to Be Happy: Nevertheless, she attends their wedding, possibly indicating she's happy for them.

Two witch sisters who live in Woodfall. Unlike in Ocarina of Time, they're good guys. Before she went missing, Koume ran the boating tour that leads toward the Deku Palace. Kotake owns the potion shop.


 * Dark Is Not Evil: Despite appearances, they're actually fairly nice people, although a bit racist towards Gorons, Dekus, and Zoras.

Meanwhile, Gorman runs the Gorman Troupe (which is composed of himself, the Rosa Sisters, Guru-Guru, and the Twin Jugglers).

Skull Kid


The apparent Big Bad of Majora's Mask, the Skull Kid stole the titular mask from the Happy Mask Salesman. However, Majora took control of him, imprisoned the four Giants of Termina, and called down the moon to destroy the world. On top of that, the Skull Kid went around Termina to cause "mischief" to all four cardinal regions (poison the water in Woodfall, cause an eternal blizzard in Snowhead, warm up the ocean in Great Bay Coast while also tricking the Gerudo Pirates from exploring Great Bay Temple, and curse the living dead in Ikana Canyon) and some other pranks in Clock Town (such as turning Kafei into a child).

 * Ax Crazy: Unlike most villains, Majora wants to kill just for fun.
 * Big Bad

 * Eldritch Abomination: It's also batshit crazy, to boot.
 * Evil Is Not a Toy: Part of it's backstory is that it was a mask used by an ancient tribe for hexing rituals until they figured out what kind of dark force they were messing with and sealed it away.
 * Evil Mask: Hoo boy.
 * Floating Mask
 * For the Evulz: Majora has no motive other than its blatant, sick enjoyment at other people's misery.

 * Mad God: Majora is incredibly powerful and absolutely bonkers.
 * Nightmare Face: Just look at those eyes...
 * Omnicidal Maniac: It wants to crash the moon into Termina and kill everything.


 * Psychopathic Manchild: Extremely apparent during its final boss fight.

 * Scare Chord
 * Sealed Evil in a Can
 * Sequential Boss
 * The Sociopath
