How is Barten anything like Talon outside of his character model? Ascended Extra example makes no sense if they\'re different characters. Early Bird Cameo is about remakes and reimaginings.


The Hero of Time that saved Hyrule in the [[TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime previous game]]. He went into the Lost Woods to search for an unidentified lost friend. 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 [[Characters/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime character sheet]] for ''OcarinaOfTime''.

[[quoteright:250:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/s_Mask_1893.png]]

The Hero of Time that saved Hyrule in the [[TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime previous game]]. He went into the Lost Woods to search for an unidentified lost friend. 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 [[Characters/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime character page]] for ''OcarinaOfTime''.

* BadassAdorable: 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.
* BalefulPolymorph: 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.
* BeTheBall: One of Link's powers in his Goron form.
* {{BFS}}: The Great Fairy's Sword. [[spoiler:As well as the Double Helix Sword.]]
* BladeBelowTheShoulder: Zora Link can use his arm-fins as weapons, or even as boomerangs.
* CovertPervert: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cGyHJqrXcSo&feature=related Link could get used to this.]]
* CuteShotaroBoy: 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.
* DeadPersonImpersonation: 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.
* ElementalPunch: Goron Link's fire punches.
* InfinityPlusOneSword: The Great Fairy Sword. [[spoiler:As well as the Double Helix Sword.]]
* TheIshmael: The game's focus is mainly on the many, many side characters, and not on Link himself.

* NotQuiteFlight: Link's Deku form lets him glide for short distances after being fired out of a flower.
* ShapeshifterVisualCue: 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...
* SuperDrowningSkills: While in Goron form, who sinks like... well, a rock.
* SuperNotDrowningSkills: Link's Zora form has this thanks to its gills.
* TookALevelInBadass: He can use the Bow and Hookshot as a child now which could only be used as an adult in'' Ocarina of Time'', he does fancy flips when jumping across platforms, and he braves the [[CrapsackWorld 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''.
* VoluntaryShapeshifting: Link has three forms he can shift into, Deku, Zora, and Goron. [[spoiler:If you collected all the masks in the game and gave them all away (except for the Deku, Goron, and Zora Masks) to the kids you find running around in the field in/on the Moon, then the kid who takes you to the fight with Majora will give you an extra transformation mask, the Fierce Deity's Mask. Could its dark powers be as evil as those of Majora?]]

!!Tatl

[[quoteright:113:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Tatl.jpg]]

The resident ExpositionFairy. Although she serves the same purpose as Navi, their personalities are DifferentAsNightAndDay. 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.

* AloofAlly: She at first only joins you because a door slammed in her face, and she frequently tells you that she couldn't care less about enemy weaknesses. Because this was one of Navi's most useful features, it came across as a little annoying.

* EscortMission: 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.

** IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: Nevertheless, she attends their wedding, possibly indicating she's happy for them.

* {{Expy}}: These Great Fairies have distinct hair colors, unlike their ''OcarinaOfTime'' counterparts.
* GettingCrapPastTheRadar: Just like in ''OcarinaOfTime'', every single Great Fairy in this game wears nothing but leaves[[hottip:*:And a pair of boots, to be more precise.]] which, due to graphics, are completely and utterly see through, though nothing explicit is drawn.

!!Zelda

The Princess of Hyrule, and Link's friend from [[OcarinaOfTime his previous adventure there]]. She's the one who gave him the Ocarina of Time, and taught him the crucial Song of Time.

Anju is Termina's counterpart to Hyrule's [[FanNickname Cucco Lady]], and the owner of the Stock Pot Inn. Best friends with Cremia. Was to get married to Kafei on the day of the Carnival of Time, until he went missing.

Kafei is the son of Clock Town's Mayor, and Anju's fiancé. Mysteriously disappeared a few days before his marriage. As it turns out, he was cursed into the body of a child by the Skull Kid, and when he went to ask the Great Fairy to cure his condition, [[ItGotWorse things only took a turn for the worse]]. Now he feels he can't show himself to Anju before fixing things.

* CuteShotaroBoy: Kafei.
* [[spoiler:GuestStarPartyMember: Kafei has the honor of being the first character in the series besides Link for being controllable by the player. The downside is that your control over him is short.]]
* LoveTriangle: Unbeknownst to them, Cremia has a crush on Kafei.
* OlderThanTheyLook: Kafei. Locked into a child's body, it's only natural.
* YouAreWorthHell: Part of their CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming.

Meanwhile, Gorman runs the Gorman Troupe (which is composed of himself, the Rosa Sisters, Guru-Guru, and the Twin Jugglers). He is dismayed to learn that his troupe won't be able to perform in the festival because Lulu of the Indigo-Go's lost her voice due to the mishappenings at Great Bay Temple.

* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: Odolwa has green skin (unless he managed to paint his whole body), and looks human enough to qualify.

!!Skull Kid

[[quoteright:206:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/s_Mask_6605.png]]

The apparent BigBad 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). With the aid of Skull Kid's former companion, Tatl, Link stopped Majora's plot, freed Skull Kid from his control, and gave Skull Kid what he really wanted - a friend.

* AscendedExtra
* [[spoiler:DarkIsNotEvil]]
* DiscOneFinalBoss [[spoiler:though you don't actually fight him.]]
* EarlyBirdCameo: Skull kids (common noun) are a race of enemies in ''Ocarina of Time''. It's implied that ''the'' Skull Kid (proper noun) from ''Majora's Mask'' [[spoiler:is a specific skull kid that Link meets in ''Ocarina'' - you play him Saria's Song, and he gives you a Heart Piece, saying that they are now friends]].
* FairyCompanion: He has two - Tatl, who joins Link, and Tael, who stays with him.

The demon trapped inside Majora's Mask. When the mischievous Skull Kid steals the Mask, it begins to corrupt him, causing the moon to slowly crash into Termina. Not much is said about it.

* AmbiguousGender: It may not even ''have'' a gender.
* ArtifactOfDoom
* AxCrazy: Unlike most villains, Majora wants to kill ''just for fun.''
* BigBad
* CombatTentacles: Majora's Wrath
* DanceBattler: Majora's Incarnation twirls like a ballerina and ''moonwalks'' while fighting you. Some of Majora's Wrath's moves may qualify, but that's a ''lot'' less funny.
* DemonicPossession: It basically had a joyride with the Skull Kid through the majority of the game, with the Skull Kid simply being an unwitting slave to the mask.
* EldritchAbomination: He's also [[MadGod batshit crazy]], to boot.
* EvilMask: Hoo boy.
* FloatingMask
* ForTheEvulz: Majora has no motive other than its blatant, sick enjoyment at other people's misery.
* HeartSymbol - Oddly enough
* IShallTauntYou: Majora's Incarnation ocasionally stops to dance or make some sort of weird movement. If you try to get close then, it'll simply run away.
* LaughingMad: Just fight Majora's Wrath or even Majora's Incarnation and you'll see that it seems to laugh a disturbingly large amount of the time.
* MadGod: Majora is absolutely bonkers.
* NightmareFace: Just look at those eyes...
* OmnicidalManiac: It wants to crash the moon into Termina and kill everything.
-->'''[[spoiler:Majora]]:''' "I will consume. Consume ... Consume everything."
* PsychopathicManchild: Extremely apparent during its final boss fight. It starts off as just the Mask (only bigger and with added tentacles), then turns into a giggling abomination who dances around the room at SuperSpeed - and then, once you've made it mad enough, it sprouts arm-whips and just starts beating the hell out of you.
* ScareChord
* SealedEvilInACan
* SequentialBoss
* WhipItGood: The final form grows whips for arms.
* [[spoiler: YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: Does this to Skull Kid after the Four Giants are summoned, albeit by abandoning him rather than outright killing him.]]
