Captain Keeta, also known as Skull Keeta, is a character from The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask. He serves the Ikana Royal Family as a military general for the Kingdom of Ikana. The time came that the doors to Stone Tower Temple were opened, unleashing a dread curse upon Ikana that transformed most of the inhabitants into undead beings; Keeta and his forces were turned into Stalchildren. Interestingly, unlike other Stalchildren, he does not seem to be nocturnal, as he can be woken up during daytime.

==Battle==
Captain Keeta is found in Ikana Graveyard lying dormant under a bridge, and is awakened by Link playing the "Sonata of Awakening". After sustaining enough damage in the ensuing battle, Keeta admits defeat. Impressed with Link's battle prowess, Captain Keeta makes him the new captain of the Ikana Army, and gives him the Captain's Hat, which allows him to command Stalchildren. He asks Link to tell his men that the war is over. As a last request, he asks that Link allow him to take his leave. Link salutes him, acknowledging his request, and Keeta disintegrates into nothing.  
Considering Captain Keeta starts things off by walking away, in a way this battle is also a race, for if Link can't keep up, he'll likely have to wake up the large Stalchild another time and try again. Link should quickly equip the [[Bunny Hood]] to ensure he can keep up with the large Stalchild, and after taking out some lesser Stalchildren and de-activating the fiery force fields that get in his way, he gets close enough to hack away at the skeletal captain's legs. In response, Captain Keeta turns around and begins to swipe at Link and even tries to drop on him from above at times. Link should use the [[bow]] to stun the large Stalchild and then slash at him with the sword.


During the battle with the King of Ikana, Igos du Ikana and his two guards, Link can fool the king into thinking Link is Captain Keeta by wearing the Captain's Hat. However, this "disguise" will not hold over for long, as the King notices Link is too small to be the true Captain Keeta.
Captain Keeta may be really difficult or he can be extremely easy depending on the circumstances of Link's encounter with him.

{{References}}
Once awakened, Keeta begins fleeing from Link, following a large path in the hills. Link must catch up to him before he reaches the end of the path. If he fails, Keeta will vanish into the ground, thinking him weak for failing to even catch up with him, forcing Link to leave and restart the battle after returning. During the chase, Captain Keeta summons Stalchildren to attack Link. He also creates walls of fire to help hold off Link's advance; these obstacles are lowered after after the Stalchildren in their vicinity are all defeated. If Keeta is struck with a projectile, he will be stunned temporarily, gaining Link time to catch up.


Once he has sustained damage from one of Link's close range attacks, Keeta will cease to flee and stand his ground. He has a similar attack pattern to a normal Stalchild, though his larger size allows for greater attack range and often lets him strike Link over his Hylian and Zora form's shields. Keeta also utilizes a "ground pound" attack during which he will jump into the air and attempt to land on top of Link. Link can watch Keeta's shadow in order to dodge the attack.

Captain Keeta, also known as Skull Keeta, is a character that appears in Majora's Mask.[1] Located within the Ikana Graveyard, this large Stalchild is at first seen sleeping soundly and needs to be awoken by Link through the use of the Sonata of Awakening.[2][3] Once Link plays this song and wakes up the sleeping skeleton, Captain Keeta breaks the archway he was previously resting below and begins to walk the other way, and this in turn initiates the battle between him and Link.

Battle

Considering Captain Keeta starts things off by walking away, in a way this battle is also a race, for if Link can't keep up, he'll likely have to wake up the large Stalchild another time and try again. Link should quickly equip the Bunny Hood to ensure he can keep up with the large Stalchild, and after taking out some lesser Stalchildren and de-activating the fiery force fields that get in his way, he gets close enough to hack away at the skeletal captain's legs. In response, Captain Keeta turns around and begins to swipe at Link and even tries to drop on him from above at times. Link should use the bow to stun the large Stalchild and then slash at him with the sword.

Captain Keeta may be really difficult or he can be extremely easy depending on the circumstances of Link's encounter with him. The easiest method in slowing him down, which is the biggest issue with the battle is simply striking him with several ice arrows. The ice arrows slow him down considerably allowing Link to quickly catch up. He attempts to strike Link with his hand, and this attack cannot easily be blocked but only avoided. His other method of attack involves him leaping into the air and attempting to fall down on top of Link. Link can use the sword when his defenses are down or continue striking him with arrows or even bombs; regardless, Link soon gets Captain Keeta to admit defeat.[4][5][6][7][8][9] After this, the captain explains things to Link and before being put to rest rewards him with the Captain's Hat.
