The mask is one of many recurring devices in the Legend of Zelda series. Wearing a mask may alter certain actions or change the user in some way, shape, or form.
'''Masks''' are one of many recurring devices in [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda'' series]]. Wearing a mask may alter certain actions or change [[Link]] in some way, shape, or form. However, some masks are just for decoration. In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]'', masks are an integral part of the gameplay, with a total of 24 masks in the game, some of which allow Link to grow in size, change form, etc.


==Ocarina of Time==
==''Ocarina of Time''==
There were only a few masks in this game, some of which needed to be traded in order to unlock the rest. This made up one of the simple [[sidequest]]s found in this game.
There are 8 masks in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'', half of which need to be traded in order to unlock the rest. This makes up one of the simple side quests found in this game, called the [[Happy Mask Side Quest]]. These masks must be sold to certain people throughout [[Hyrule]]. Once all the masks are sold to the many denizens, the [[Happy Mask Salesman]] gives [[Link (Ocarina of Time)|Link]] the [[Mask of Truth]] as a reward and also lets him borrow three new masks: the [[Gerudo Mask]], [[Goron Mask]], and [[Zora Mask]]. Though the Deku, Goron, and Zora Masks do nothing besides different comments from people, the Mask of Truth allows Link to speak to [[Gossip Stone]]s found throughout Hyrule. Additionally, the [[Deku Scrub]]s in the [[Forest Stage]] react differently depending on the mask shown. This is necessary in order to obtain item upgrades.


==Majora's Mask==
==''Majora's Mask''==
The mask played an enormous role in Majora's Mask, with the addition of masks that allow the user to become a [[Deku]], [[Goron]], or [[Zora]]. There is also the Giant's mask that is sometimes considered a transformation mask.
