Link is the hero and main protagonist of ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]'' and starts off looking for who is inferred to be [[Navi]] in the Lost Woods. A [[Skull Kid]] wearing a mysterious mask and his fairies [[Tatl]] and [[Tael]] scare Epona and Link is knocked off, unconsious. Skull Kid steals Epona and the Ocarina of Time from Link and rides into the woods. Link follows, and learns Epona has run off, but Skull Kid still has the Ocarina of Time. The Skull Kid turns Link into a [[Deku Link|Deku Scrub]] and leaves him and, accidentally, Tatl, behind after leaving. Deku Link and Tatl go on to follow them into a clock tower. They meet the [[Happy Mask Salesman]], who tells them that if they can get the Ocarina back in 3 days, before he has to leave, he can turn Link back into a Hylian, as long as he gets the Skull Kid's mask he stole. Link learns the Skull Kid has caused mischief across the new world he's entered called [[Termina]], and that he is trying to get the Moon to crash into Clock Town and destroy the world at the end of Day 3. Link gets the Ocarina of Time back and uses the [[Song of Time]] to transport him and Tatl back to the beginning of Day 1. The Happy Mask Salesman turns Link back to a Hylian, leaving a mask behind that will allow him to turn back to the Deku Scrub whenever he wants. Link now must awaken the 4 Giants in the 4 compass directions to prevent the Moon from falling, and must repeat the same 3 days over and over until he can awaken them. After saving the Deku Princess and removing the poison from the [[Southern Swamp]], bringing [[Snowpeak]] to spring, saving the Zora eggs and clearing the fog from [[Great Bay]], and bringing peace to souls in [[Ikana Canyon]]. Link stops the Moon from crashing into Termina, but the mask the Skull Kid was wearing, called [[Majora's Mask]] and harnessing dark evil powers, takes over the Moon itself. Link lands on the moon through the portal left from Majora's Mask dark powers, and defeats Majora in his Mask, Wrath, and Incarnate forms. Link then leaves to return to Hyrule and continue his search for Navi.

Link ventures to Hyrule Castle and visits the Triforce in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons|Oracle of Seasons]]''. While there, he is knocked unconcious and falls into the world of [[Holodrum]]. He is discovered by a dancer named [[Din (Oracle)|Din]] who cares for him until he awakens. He discovers Din with her troupe and talks to everyone, then Din asks him to dance. While dancing, the troupe is attacked by [[Onox]], General of Darkness, who reveals that Din is none other than the Oracle of Seasons and controls the seasons in Holodrum. He causes a tornado that sends the members of the troupe flying and attacks Link while he tries to protect Din. He tries saving her again and ends up blown away and knocked unconscious. Onox imprisons Din and sinks the [[Temple of Seasons]] into the land of [[Subrosia]], throwing the seasons into chaos. [[Impa]], the troupe's cook, wakes him up and explains that she is actually the nursemaid of Princess Zelda and Link is a hero with a special fate. She tells him to go see the Maku Tree in Horon Village in order to help save Din. A weakened Maku Tree explains that Link must go find the eight Essences of Nature in order to restore him to his former state. Eventually, Link has to find the Temple of Seasons in Subrosia and obtain the [[Rod of Seasons]] which he can use to control the seasons manually in order to save Din. However, he has to visit the spirits of each season to gain their powers. Once equipped with all four seasons and all eight Essences, the Maku Tree gives Link a [[Maku Seed]], which can be used to get rid of the darkness surrounding Onox's castle. Link fights Onox and defeats him, but it is revealed later that Onox and [[Veran]] were just pawns to [[Twinrova]], who is trying to revive [[Ganon]]. The defeat of Onox lights the Flame of Destruction, and Twinrova kidnaps Zelda to sacrifice her. Link ventures forth into the [[Room of Rites]] and fights Twinrova, defeating her.Twinrova then sacrifices herself and Ganon is revived as a mindless beast, and defeated by Link. Afterwards, he returns with Zelda and the game ends with him on a raft heading for an unknown location.

===Four Swords Adventures===
Strange occurences have happened recently in a fearful Hyrule. Zelda and the six maidens have reasons to believe that the cause of this forboding air is the weakening seal on Vaati, the Wind Mage. To verify their presumptions, the maidens open the portal to the Four Sword Sanctuary, the sealing place of Vaati. When they are successful, Shadow Link emerges from the portal and kidnaps the maidens. Link follows him back into the portal and finds the Four Sword waiting in its resting place. He draws it and in doing so splits into four. However, Vaati is released from his prison and starts to cover the world in darkness. It is now up to Link once again to stop Vaati from terrorizing Hyrule. But there seems to be a bigger threat behind the evil Wind Mage that is pulling all the strings...

The Picori Festival has begun, and Zelda snuck out of the castle in order to go to the festival with Link. Grandfather Smith, the finest Smith in all of Hyrule, gives Link the task to give Smith's Sword to the winner of a Swordsman competition. At the Festival, after winning the first prize in a lottery, Zelda chooses a shield and gives it to Link. This soon comes to use when Link protects Zelda from a Bussiness Scrub. However, at the award cermony, the winner [[Vaati]] breaks open the cermonial chest with the legendary Picori Blade stuck in it in search for the legendary Light Force. Angered when it turns out that the chest contained nothing but monsters, Vaati casts a spell on Zelda. Link tries to block it but is pushed away, and Zelda turns into stone. After a talk with the King of Hyrule, Link is given Smith's Sword and sets out to the Minish Wood. And thus Link's quest to save Zelda and defeat Vaati begins.

The Minish Wood is where the legendary [[Minish|Picori]] are said to reside. On the way he encounters the strange talking cap [[Ezlo]]. After saving the cap from some Octorocks, Ezlo declares that the two can help each other and jump up on Link's head. And thus, with his trademark cap on his head (altough a living one) Link's quest starts for real. With Ezlo's help, Link can switch from normal size to Picori size. The two venture out to reforge the broken Picroi Blade and infuse it with the four elements. After this is done and the Four Sword has been created from the Picori Blade, Link enters the final dungeon, Dark Hyrule Castle. At last he saves Princess Zelda. However, Vaati has absorbed a good deal of the legendary Light Force that was residing in none other than Zelda, and transforms into the Wind Mage Vaati. Link manages to seal Vaati away.

It so happens that the cap Vaati was wearing was Ezlo's invention, a cap able to grant wishes. The cap is purified by Zelda and she uses it to purify the lands of Hyrule. Ezlo, who was cursed by Vaati, returned into what he really was... a Picori. This year was special, as the door between the Picori and the big world was opened. But the door would soon close, and Ezlo must hurry if he wants to return to his people. However, before he left he created a parting gift for Link, a green cap. After remarking that it looked good on Link, Ezlo left.
