Appearances
Ocarina of Time
Never named in Ocarina of Time, this old man lives in Castle Town walking around during the day. Shikashi tells Link a story about the Legend of the Shadow Folk, the Sheikahs who swore allegiance to the King of Hyrule and protected the Royal Family of Hyrule.[1] Furthermore, when Ganondorf's subjugation of Hyrule and the devastated Castle Town take place, he moves in to Kakariko Village to live in. When Link talks to him there, Shikashi tells Link a story about the man who could see the truth who lived at the exact same spot where the well is.[2] During the night, he can be found in Mamamu Yan's house, and there he tells Link about the Cursed Rich Family, who got cursed due to their greed.[3]
Majora's Mask
In Majora's Mask, Professor Shikashi maintains the Astral Observatory in the Termina Field. In there, he possesses a Moon's Tear kept in a glassed case on a stand. He tells Link that the menacing Skull Kid has been messing with him and threatened him by saying that he will break his instruments and steal his Moon's Tear.[4][5]
