[[File:Anjus-Mother-Model.png|128px|right]]
{{Main|Anju's Mother}}
The mother to the Stock Pot Inn Innkeeper, Anju, and daughter-in-law to Anju's Grandmother. She is middle-aged and has a rounded appearance. She is protective of her daughter and hates that her daughter's fiance, Kafei, has left without saying a word to Anju. This is evident in how she responds to Link wearing Kafei's Mask when speaking to her. She will become visibly angry and raise a fist at Link, telling him to not speak to her with "that unpleasant mask" on. She believes that the reason behind his disappearance is because he has run off with Cremia whom notably has a crush on the blue-haired man and as Anju's Mother surmises that she will need financial support for running the ranch through Kafei's mother, Madame Aroma. Another reason behind her anger towards Kafei's disappearance maybe be due to her own husband disappearance. She believed that he would return and waited for him, but found that he wasn't coming back. She believes that because of this she passed down her naivety to her daughter.


Anju's Mother doesn't appear very often in the game. In the instances when she does appear it is usually on the second day standing at the desk at Stock Pot Inn (if Anju didn't meet Link with Kafei's mask during the afternoon of the First Day). She also appears in a secret cutscene which is accessible during a certain point in time in which she discusses Kafei's disappearance with Anju. Later on, she, her mother-in-law, and Anju (depending on whether or not she received the Pendant of Memories) seek shelter at Romani Ranch on the night of the third day. Her last appearance is after Link stops the moon from falling and defeats Majora's Mask. She is seen standing along with the others who are attending Kafei's and Anju's wedding. It is unknown if she still harbors the same anger towards her new son-in-law or if she has forgiven him for leaving his daughter for a long amount of time.
=== Bean Seller ===
{{Clear}}
[[File:BeanSalesman.png|128px|right]]
 
{{Main|Bean Seller}}
 
Termina's counterpart to the Bean Seller from Ocarina of Time. He does nearly the same thing as his parallel; selling Magic Beans and eating beans. His Hyrulean self ate beans even after the Magic Beans were sold out, so it is likely that the beans he is seen eating are not the same as those he sells. This strange man makes his home in a secret grotto in the Deku Palace, and his presence is probably unknown to the Deku Royal Family. He says he doesn't get much business, likely due to his location. When they first meet, he gives Link a free Magic Bean pod, but from then on he sells them for 10 Rupees each.
=== Aveil ===
[[File:Aveil-Model.png|128px|right]]
{{Main|Aveil}}
Leader of the Gerudo Pirates, and the Terminian counterpart of the Gerudo left in charge in Ocarina of Time. Like all pirates, she seeks treasure and wealth by stealing it. Her room is full of many treasures that she has stolen, including one of the Zora Eggs and the Hookshot. She is lied to by the Skull Kid and told that the Zora Eggs laid by Lulu will help them get past the dragon cloud floating over Great Bay, and also that the Great Bay Temple holds a great treasure. All of her efforts from then on are concentrated on getting that treasure. Her pirates steal the Zora Eggs from Lulu's room in Zora Hall before she has the opportunity to take them to the Marine Research Laboratory. However, several of the eggs were taken when the pirates were attacked by Deep Pythons near Pinnacle Rock. Furious at this failure, Aveil is found yelling at her subordinate and ordering her to find the rest of the eggs before it's too late. When Link shot a beehive in Aveil's chamber in the Pirates' Fortress, the bees chased Aveil and the other pirates outside so Link could retrieve the Hookshot that she stole from the Fisherman and one of the eggs.

=== Banker ===
[[File:Banker-Model.png|128px|right]]
{{Main|Banker}}
The Terminian counterpart of a man in Ocarina of Time who buys bottled items. The Banker runs the Clock Town Bank in West Clock Town, sitting on a desk in front of the vault. He is very enthusiastic, patting the ground constantly and exclaiming when large amounts of money are deposited. He seems to be a strong advocate of banking, criticizing people for not depositing rupees and constantly suggesting that people spend their money wisely.
 
When Link meets the Banker during the events of Majora's Mask, he tells Link about a special deal he's doing for a limited time to promote depositing in which people will receive gifts depending on how many rupees they desposit, awarding Link several items for depositing large amounts of rupees throughout the game. He stamps Link with his special, invisible ink to remember him, somehow recognizing Link and the amount he has deposited even after multiple trips through time. The Banker also charges Link for night-time withdrawals, but does award him interest when he collects large amounts of rupees.

=== Beaver Brothers ===
[[File:Beaver-Brothers.png|128px|right]]
{{Main|Beaver Brothers}}
These are two strange creatures who swim around their home, the Waterfall Rapids, located at the top of the waterfall that feeds into Great Bay. Mikau tried to race them for an Empty Bottle that he could use to retrieve the Zora Eggs, but failed. When Link later comes wearing the Zora Mask, the orange-colored little brother recognizes him as Mikau and gladly accepts another challenge. The following race involves following the Beaver through the water and swimming through rings. When the little brother loses, he calls his yellow-colored big brother. Since the Beaver Brothers consider Empty Bottles to be a valuable treasure, he will not let Link have one just because he beat his little brother. Link races the elder of the two in a more difficult challenge with more rings, but ultimately wins the Empty Bottle, while the Beaver Brothers admit they underestimated Link. He can then race them a third time in a race with a shorter time limit. When he wins they desperately want him to leave them alone, so they give him a Heart Piece and hope that it's over.

Later on, Link discovers Captain Keeta in his slumber next to Dampé's home in the Ikana Graveyard. Link plays the Sonata of Awakening and wakens him causing him to break the walls around him and proceed to walk away from Link. Link must chase after him and fight him in order to prevent him from reaching the end of the path. While fending off the StalChildren, members of his army in their undead form, that he summons, Link must makes sure that he does not get hit by the walls of flame that shoot out to stop his progress. Link can stun Captain Keeta with an arrow which will allow him to slice at him with his sword. After hitting him with the sword a few times, Skull Keeta will proceed to jump up into the air and try to slam down onto Link. Link can avoid this by watching for a shadow to appear on the ground after Skull Keeta has jumped and moving out of the way before he makes contact with ground. After a couple more hits, Skull Keeta finally gives up and admits his defeat. He tells Link who he once was and that he has been waiting for someone to come and wake him due to his failure at winning a battle for his kingdom. He asks Link to take the mask he gives him, which is found directly behind him surrounded by flames (Link can reach this by means of the Hookshot or by climbing onto the ledge of the wall and jumping across), and to tell his men that the war is over, only then can he move on. Link salutes him which grants Skull Keeta permission to move on knowing that Link will take care of his request.

=== Darmani ===
[[File:Darmani-Model.png|128px|right]]
{{Main|Darmani}}
Darmani III was a Goron hero who loved to race in the Goron races and who tragically died trying to find and defeat the one who was causing the devasting winter that was harming his people. On his way there, he was unfortunately blown off of the narrow pathway leading to Snowhead Temple by the invisible Biggoron and fell to his death. After he died, his ghost lingered on in Goron Village because of the sadness and regret he was feeling by not being able to help his people. He encountered Kaepora Gaebora who told him that someone with powerful magic would be able to help him.
Sometime afterward, he saw Link as he was crossing a gorge using the Lens of Truth that he had just found. Using the item, Link could see Darmani's spirit and the goron hero realized that this was the person that Kaepora Gaebora was referring to. He told Link to follow him and he led the young Hero to his grave where spoke to him of how he died and that he regretted that it happened. He asked Link to use his magic to either bring him alive or ease his sorrows. Answering his request, Link played for him the Song of Healing which released Darmani's regrets and allowed him to move on in peace. In exchange for helping him to move on, Link was able to obtain the Goron's Mask which allowed him to use Darmani's abilities and change into a Goron when he put it on.

=== Fisherman ===
[[File:Fisherman-Model.png|128px|right]]
{{Main|Fisherman (Majora's Mask)}}
The Terminian counterpart of the Hyrule Market Treasure Chest Game Owner. He is a man living in a hut on the Great Bay Coast. He claims to be the greatest fisherman, even better than the Zoras, but is now having trouble catching fish because the water has become warm. The Fisherman used to own the Hookshot which he used to snatch fish right out of the water. He also claims the Hookshot is a legendary treasure, but that it was stolen from him by the Gerudo Pirates. He owns a picture of one of the pirate women, but is dissatisfied with its quality. He seems very interested in the women, and asks Link to bring him a good pictograph of one of the pirates in exchange for the rare seahorse he caught.
After Link returns the seas to normal by defeating Gyorg, the Fisherman decides to start up a new business for tourists called the Fisherman's Jumping Game. Located in a different area of the Great Bay Coast than his hut, the game takes place on a series of tiny islands only reachable by boat and Hookshot. The mini-game involves jumping to each island when its torch lights. When Link wins the game, the Fisherman complains about making the game too easy, saying he was trying to save up for a big ship and now might go bankrupt.

=== Flat ===
[[File:Flat-Medium.png|128px|right]]
{{Main|Flat}}
The Terminian version of the Flat from Ocarina of Time. This version of Flat was a servant of the Ikana Royal Family in life, when he and his older brother Sharp composed many songs for them. After selling his soul to the devil, Sharp locked Flat up in a grave where the songs connected to the Royal Family are kept. He remains in the grave until Link enters it and frees Flat. Flat then teaches Link the Song of Storms, a song he composed that will set his brother's soul free, as it blows away curses. He makes his final request of Link, asking him to play the song for his brother and cleanse his soul. Flat's final words to Link are "And if you ever meet my brother, I'd like you to inform him... The thousand years of raindrops summoned by my song are my tears. The thunder that strikes the earth is my anger! ...I have made my request."

=== Four Giants ===
[[File:Majoras-Mask-Giants.jpg|128px|right]]
{{Main|Four Giants}}
The guardian gods and creators of Termina. Long before the story of Majora's Mask, the people all lived together, and the Giants lived with them as they protected them. On the day of the harvest festival (later known as the Carnival of Time) where the people wore masks of the Giants to honor them, the Four Giants told the people that they shall continue to protect the people from their slumber. They then departed from the location where the Clock Tower would later be built, each walking 100 steps in each of the compass directions, where they slept. They told the people that if they had need of them, to loudly call and declare their plight, so that their voice may carry to the sleeping giants.
One day every year, atop the Clock Tower during the Carnival of Time, and ancient song is sung in a ceremony to call the gods. Whether this is a tribute to the Giants or the way the people actually called for their help is unclear.
One person was very shocked and sad that the Giants had chosen to sleep. That person was a little imp, the Skull Kid, who had been friends with the giants since before they created the four worlds. Feeling neglected, the Skull Kid was angry and repeatedly wronged the people. Eventually they were overcome and called out to the Giants. They awoke and confronted the Skull Kid, roaring out, warning him that if he does not stop hurting the people they will destroy him. The Skull Kid left, sad that he had lost his old friends.
During the events of Majora's Mask, the Four Giants have been sealed away by the Skull Kid to prevent them from trying to stop him. They each were each sealed within a mask, worn by four monsters guarding the Woodfall, Snowhead, Great Bay, and Stone Tower Temples. Upon confronting the Skull Kid atop the Clock Tower, Tael tells Link about the four locations, saying "The four who are there...Bring them here..."
After freeing the first Giant in Woodfall, Link is taught the Oath to Order (likely the song sung for the Giants atop the Clock Tower), and the Giant tells Link to call them. Without knowing the true nature of the Giants, Link frees the other three, gradually learning about their true nature as protective gods and then receiving a request to help their friend, the Skull Kid. Finally they Giants tell them they should forgive the Skull Kid before once more telling Link to call them.
Atop the Clock Tower after midnight on the Third Day, Link plays the Oath to Order, causing the Four Giants to let out their cries and then appear to stop the moon from colliding with Termina. Once Majora's Mask discards the Skull Kid and enters the moon, the Four Giants are no longer enough to stop it but manage to hold it off until Link is victorious against Majora.
After the battle is over the Four Giants tell the liberated Skull Kid that they never forgot about him, that they always considered him their friend. Afterwards, the Four Giants cry out the Oath to Order as they return to sleep in the four regions once more.

=== Giant Turtle ===
[[File:Turtle.png|128px|right]]
{{Main|Giant Turtle}}
On the edge of Zora's Cape, right next to the Owl Stone, Lulu can be found looking out to the sea. After Link learns the New Wave Bossa Nova, he is able to help her and her spent voice. But once Link plays the song for Lulu something unexpected happens. The inconspicuous island out in the sea rises up to reveal a Giant Turtle! Not much is known about the turtle who lives off of Zora Cape, but he seems to have a guardian role for the Zora people. He is also the only means of transportation to get to the Great Bay Temple. Once awakened, the turtle will tell Link to jump on his back to hitch a ride to the Temple. Link can get onto him by using the Hookshot on one of the trees growing out of his back.
After Link clears the temple, the turtle will thank him for his effort, and tell Link that he must resume his slumber. He also comments that he can only do so much to reverse the coming doom of Termina, due to the bidding of the gods.

=== Goron Elder ===
[[File:Goron-Elder-Model.png|128px|right]]
{{Main|Goron Elder (Majora's Mask)}}
The Goron Elder is the leader of the Gorons who live in Goron Village located in the Snowhead area. He is an older Goron and has a son who can be found in the Goron Shrine in the village crying due to him missing his father greatly. After realizing that the only thing that can calm the crying Goron down is his father, Link goes to try and find him. He finally finds the Elder encased in a giant snow boulder and covered in ice. Depending on which day Link finds him he can be found either near the entrance to Goron Village on Day 1, near the ramp in the Spectacle Rock(the area in Snowhead where two hills are surrounded by water) area on Day 2, and on the Third Day next to the Owl Statue in Mountain Village. By the way his location changes this shows that he is headed to Snowhead, possibly to find out the cause of the snow covering the area and to probably try and stop it. When Link obtains some Hot Spring Water (found either in the cave where Darmani's Grave is or in the hole that has ice over it on one of the islands in the Spectacle Rock area) and uses it on the ice surrounding the Elder, he unfreezes and is shocked to find Darmani (Goron Link) in front of him. He convinces himself that Goron Link is an illusion that is being created by Snowhead's magic and proceeds to walk away from him.
Upon hearing from Goron Link that his son is upset and is missing him, he attempts to teach him the Goron's Lullaby but he finds himself unable to remember all the notes to the song. He then teaches Goron Link the six notes of the song that he does remember. Upon playing those notes to his son, the young Goron teaches Goron Link the rest of it. After the Elder has taught the song to Goron Link he will begin to walk again obviously intent on reaching his destination. He will become frozen again shortly afterwards and there is nothing that Link can do to prevent it from occurring as it will keep happening. It will only stop once Link has defeated the boss from Snowhead and restored spring to the area. After Link has beaten Snowhead Temple he will find the Elder in the Goron Shrine surrounded by fellow Gorons. He will then announce that since he is getting old it is time for him to choose a successor. He tells Goron Link that he has chosen him (thinking he is Darmani) to be his successor. He believes that everyone will be happy with Darmani being the patriarch of Goron Village.

=== Goron Elder's Son ===
[[File:Goron-Elders-Son-2.png|128px|right]]
{{Main|Goron Elder's Son}}
Inside the Throne Room of Goron Shrine, an infant-sized goron in a cloth diaper sits on the throne. Day and night, he bawls his eyes out, filling the entire shrine with his wails. Because of this noise, all the gorons in Goron Shrine have been driven to the point of exhaustion from the shrieks of a crying baby goron. They plug their ears with their fingers and jump up and down, desperately trying to block out the noise.
When Link speaks to the goron elder's son, Link finds out that he is crying over three things: the extreme cold, his fatigue, and the fact that has father has now gone missing. In order to help the infant, and indirectly the rest of the gorons, Link must find and unfreeze the Goron Elder in the pathway between Mountain Village and Goron Village. When the Goron Elder is unfrozen, he will try to teach you the Goron Lullaby, but in the end he forgets the second part, and can only teach Link the first part. When Link (with the goron mask on) plays the first part of the Goron Lullaby in front of the elder's son, he will recognize the song immediately. He will then stand up, and help Link finish the song by teaching Link the second part of the lullaby. After Link plays it correctly, the goron elder's son becomes sleepy, and stops crying. He finally curls up and falls asleep right on the throne. In a moment of relief, all the gorons will curl up and begin to catch up on their much needed rest. He will sleep for as long as Snowhead Temple is left untouched.
After Link clears Snowhead Temple, the goron elder's son can be found next to the entrance to the Goron Racetrack. He waits outside the boulder, because this year, the Goron Elder sent his son to run the races in his stead. To destroy the boulder, Link can go to Medigoron in Goron Village to learn how to use Powder Kegs. The initiation to be able to gain a powder keg license is to bring a keg from Medigoron's house to the the Goron Racetrack's entrance. As soon as the track is open, the elder's son will walk in and begin the races. Goron Link can enter the race by talking to the son. If Link wins the race, he will give him a bottle of gold dust. The goron elder's son is key in the journey to Snowhead, and his attatchment to Darmani is a melancholy reminder of the consequences of Link walking around with the Goron Mask equipped.

=== Great Fairy ===
[[File:Great Fairy MM.png|128px|right]]
{{Main|Great Fairy}}
Five Great Fairies inhabit the land of Termina, spread equally across the world. However, Skull Kid has divided these great fairies into a large amount of smaller fairies. While the majority of the fairies have kept their residence in the Fairy Fountains, some have strayed from the fountain and have trapped themselves in either a temple or random corners of Clock Town.
It is Tatl who first suggests seeking out the Great Fairy, thinking that the Great Fairy will be able to stop Skull Kid dead in his tracks. But as Link first enters the fountain in North Clock Town, Tatl finds a Great Fairy shattered into a group of smaller fairies. The smaller fairies beg Link to go find the only fairy missing from the mass. Link can find this fairy flying over the Laundry pool during the day, or in East Clock Town at night. Once Link brings back the fairy, all the smaller fairies will spin and form into the Great Fairy of Magic, the fairy Link is likely to have the most interaction with. As a gift, Link will get the ability to blow bubbles and shoot them as projectiles. After the first three days, if Link restores the Great Fairy of Magic again, she will give Link the Great Fairy's mask. When Link wears the mask in a dungeon, If there is a fairy in the room, its hair will shimmer. Also, any Fairy released from a bubble or in the air will float over to Link while he wears the mask.
If Link gathers 15 fairies from one dungeon, he will be able to rescue the Great Fairies from other parts of the world. The Great Fairy of Power lives in a cave on the rim of Woodfall, and will teach Link a supercharged spin attack. The Great Fairy of Wisdom lives in a cave below the entrance to Snowhead Temple, and will double the length of Link's magic meter if released. In Great Bay, The Great Fairy of Courage lives a number of ledges away from the seashore near Zora Cape, and will give Link the power of double life. Finally, the Great Fairy of Kindness lives in Ikana, is gives the Great Fairy's Sword to anyone who manages to gather all the fairies from Stone Tower Temple. The hair color of the Great Fairies will correspond to the color of their smaller fairy forms.

=== Igos du Ikana ===
[[File:Igos-Du-Ikana.png|128px|right]]
{{Main|Igos du Ikana}}
Igos du Ikana is the undead king of Ikana. His throne room is in Ikana Castle, in the room farthest to the north. At all times during the 3 day cycle he sits waiting, with two guards by his side.
Igos is the tragic king of Ikana. Long before the events of the game, Ikana was a great nation, a bastion of military prowess and prosperity. Little is known about Ikana's history, but at some point Ikana went to war with another nation. The war was long and bloody, and at the end of the war, Ikana was destroyed beyond repair, and Igos du Ikana locked himself in his castle.
When Link enters the throne room of Igos, he will tell Link that he has trespassed on a cursed land, and sends his guards to attack. Using light from the windows (use a fire arrow to burn the shades), Link can stun, and eventually kill his henchmen. After his guards fall, Igos rises from his throne and draws his sword.
At this point, Igos is an enemy which Link must defeat in order to exit the room and continue with the game. Igos can be stunned if he Link shines light on him while he is preparing an attack. After he is stunned, slash him with the sword until he comes to. Igos has to special attacks which his servants lacked. One, he can breathe ice, and freeze Link if he gets too close. Two, he has the ability to decapitate himself and have his head chase you around the room. In order to avoid this one, Link should run continuously around the room, avoiding sharp turns or stopping. A couple of good hits and Igos should be down in a handful of minutes.
Once Igos goes down, his servants will start to bicker and fight as floating heads. Igos intervenes, and questions if that fighting attitude was what ruined Ikana in the first place. Being released from his curse, he thanks Link, and begs him to vanquish the evil inside Stone Tower. Igos teaches Link the Elegy of Emptiness to help him climb Stone Tower.
Igos appears in the credits wavering with his servants. Also, if Link wears the Captain's Hat before Igos attacks, Igos will get confused for a moment, before realizing that he is being tricked. His servants also have a comedic reaction to the Bremen's Mask.

=== Kaepora Gaebora ===
[[File:Kaepora-Gaebora.png|128px|right]]
{{Main|Kaepora Gaebora}}
Like his Hyrulean counterpart, Kaepora Gaebora is a giant owl that appears at several points to give Link advice and guide him on his journey. He has no explanation or backstory, unlike the Kaepora Gaebora from Hyrule. The Owl Statues throughout Termina that look like Kaepora Gaebora were left by him to aid one with the power to change Termina's destiny. Kaepora Gaebora seems strangely aware of Termina's impending fate and is actively seeking someone who can change that fate.
He first appears in the Southern Swamp when Link is on his way to Woodfall Temple, recognizing Link as a fairy child, a rare sight, and asks what business he has in the poisoned swamp. He tells Link he wouldn't blame him if he turned back, and suggests that Link head back to town. During this encounter he informs Link that Woodfall has lost its guardian deity, one of the Four Giants, but that it was destined to fade anyway as was the rest of the land. He tells Link that if he has courage enough to press on in the face of destiny, then he will teach him the Song of Soaring, allowing Link to transport to any of his Owl Statues. He tells Link that from the moment he first plays the song, Link and him will become eternal friends, transcending time and place. Kaepora Gaebora then flies off.
He later reappears in Goron Village. After greeting Link, he tells him he may have the strength to change Termina's destiny like he expected. He warns Link that the trials ahead will only become more challenging, also requesting of Link to watch over the Gorons. The land of the Gorons is doomed to be smothered in snow and ice, and become a land where nothing can survive. Kaepora Gaebora tells Link that without courage and determination he will succumb to the extreme conditions, but if he has both then it is another story. He asks Link if he intends to press on, responding to his answer of yes by saying that perhaps he does have the strength to change the fate of the mountain after all. The owl then leads Link across a chasm to the Lens of Truth. Once Link makes it there, Kaepora Gaebora is assured of Link's resolve. His final advice to Link is that from here on out he should not be fooled by appearances and instead rely on his feelings. Kaepora Gaebora then flies off, never appearing again.

=== Kotake ===
[[File:Kotake.png|128px|right]]
{{Main|Kotake}}
Kotake is the witch who runs the Southern Swamp Potion Shop. She is always open, and can sell Link red and green potions during the daytime. She is the cheery old witch who has a tendency to fall asleep on the job. Her potion shop lies east of the Southern Swamp tourist center, where her sister works.
Link must speak to Kotake in order to save her sister, Koume, from inside the Mystery Woods. Before he can do so, he must find Koume at the end of the Woods of Mystery. Otherwise, Kotake won't find out that her sister is missing. Kotake will give Link his first bottle, full of red potion. If Link brings this bottle back to Koume, she will thank him, and head back to the tourist center. If Link does not save Koume before nightfall, Kotake will temporarily leave the shop to find her sister.
After Link receives the Mask of Scents, Link can help out Kotake with her potion-making. With the Mask of Scents, Link can find the Magic Mushrooms which Kotake has been searching for. When Link gives her the mushrooms, she will whip up a batch of a previously-unavailable potion; blue potion. For his effort, she will give Link a bottle full of the first batch.
Kotake, along with her sister, Koume, made an earlier appearance in Ocarina of Time. Kotake was an Ice Witch who guarded the Spirit Temple with her fiery sister, Koume. Kotake and Koume seems to be the only two characters which have changed from enemies to friends between the two games.

=== Koume ===
[[File:Koume.png|128px|right]]
{{Main|Koume}}
Before Link arrives to Termina, Koume, the kindly old witch of the swamp has the misfortune of running into Skull Kid. With her power sapped, she is trapped inside of the Woods of Mystery, and in need of Link's help. To find her, Link must enter the Woods of Mystery in Southern Swamp, behind her sister's potion shop.
Link can find Koume by following the monkey at the beginning of the woods. He will lead Link through the passages of the Woods of Mystery, and bring him to Koume, along with a group of his monkey friends. When Link speaks to Koume, she'll beg Link for something to restore her energy. In order to help her, Link must exit the Woods of Mystery and enter Kotake's potion shop. When Kotake, the identical twin sister of Koume, finds out about her sister's plight for help she will tell Link to go save her. She will also give Link a bottle full of red potion to do the job. If Link navigates the forest again, he can give the potion to Koume, restoring her energy.
Restored and replenished, Koume will thank you and fly back to her job running the Southern Swamp Boat Cruise. For helping her, Koume will give Link his first ride on the house. Also, Koume will give Link the Pictograph for free, because of the pictograph contest also working out of the Swamp Tourist Center. Her cruise leads to Deku Palace, and is the only way to navigate the poison swamp. After his first ride, Koume will make Link pay 10 rupees for each subsequent ride. After Woodfall Temple is cleared, and the waters of the swamp are cleared along with it, Koume will offer Link something more than a tour. For 10 rupees, Link can play a game in which Link can pelt Koume with arrows while on the boat cruise. In the game, Koume will follow along in front of the Swamp tour boat, and hold a target right below her. If Link can hit the target 25 times before Koume returns to the tourist center, She will give him a piece of heart. But be careful, Koume doesn't take kindly to being shot, and she will cancel the game prematurely if Link hits her too many times. But this number is pretty high, so firing the bow as many times as possible is still Link's best bet to win. From the old lady in need of help to allowing Link to shoot his bow near her, Koume is one of those 360 degree characters. For more information of Koume, read up on her twin sister, Kotake.

{{Main|Lulu}}
Lulu is the lead singer for the legendary all Zora band The Indigo-Go's. She can be found on the outside ledge of Zora Cape, near the Owl Stone. Lulu wears a blue dress, and is unable to speak to Link or anyone else... for now.
Lulu has lost her voice under tragic circumstances. Before the three day cycle, Lulu had given birth to seven Zora eggs, fathered by Mikau, the guitarist from the Indigo-Go's. With the birth of her eggs, Evan, the bandleader, suggested sending her eggs to the Marine Laboratory near the coast for safe keeping. These eggs were captured by the Gerudo pirates en route to the laboratory. The Gerudo, tricked by Skull Kid into believing the eggs were the key to gaining access to the Great Bay Temple, stole all 7 eggs, but only were able to bring four back to the base. With all her eggs kidnapped, Lulu falls into a depression, and the loss of her voice ensues.
In order for Link to help Lulu, he must first retrieve all 7 of her eggs. Link can find the first four in Gerudo Fortress, and the last three are underwater at Pinnacle Rock being guarded by gigantic eels. Lulu's eggs fit into bottles, and can be released safely into the giant tank in the Marine Research Lab. When all seven eggs are found, the eggs will hatch, and teach Link the New Wave Bossa Nova. But, although the eggs are safe, Lulu will still be unable to sing. Link must defeat Gyorg, and clear the Great Bay Temple in order to bring Lulu's voice back.
The reason for Lulu's loss of voice is directly tied to the Great Bay Temple. Lulu seems to be in a lineage of guardians of the Temple, and their fates are intertwined. Also a guardian of the Great Bay Temple, Lulu's mom, also named Lulu, was previously the guardian, along with the previous singer for the Indigo-Go's. When Link wears the Zora Mask, Lulu will see him as Mikau, her lover and fellow musician.

=== Medigoron ===
[[File:Medigoron-Model.png|128px|right]]
{{Main|Medigoron}}
The 2nd largest goron, Medigoron sells Powder Kegs out of his cave in Goron Village. However, the endless winter has put him out of business, due to a giant block of ice covering the entrance to his cave. Inside, he will wait until spring.
After Link defeats Goht and the spell cast over Snowhead dissipates, he will be able to go visit Medigoron. Along with selling Powder Kegs, Medigoron is in charge of training new users of the bomb as well. Wearing the Goron Mask, Link will be able to take the powder keg license test, the assignment being clearing the boulder in front of the Goron Racetrack. Link will be given a powder keg with a very long fuse, and will be asked to transport the bomb out of the cave and across the village. When Link succeeds in doing so, he can return to Medigoron for his first powder keg which is on the house.
After Link is powder keg trained, he can return to Medigoron in springtime (or winter with fire arrows) to buy a powder keg off of Medigoron for 100 rupees. Even though Medigoron seems to be the authority on these large explosives, his asking price is inflated. With the ability to carry powder kegs, Link can locate the goron in Clock Town's bomb shop to buy powder kegs for 50 rupees. Medigoron may be the chief, but the price isn't right as long as he can be outdone by the more accessible and cheaper goron in the Bomb Shop.

=== Mikau ===
[[File:Mikau-Model.png|128px|right]]
{{Main|Mikau}}
Descended from ancient Zora heroes, Mikau was the guitarist for the famous Zora band, the Indigo-Go's. He was roommates with Tijo, the drummer, and he had jam sessions with Japas, the bassist. He had a close relationship with Lulu, the band's singer, and was angry when he was told by Evan that the eggs she had laid were stolen by the Gerudo Pirates. Evan told him to go find the eggs before the concert they were to have at the Carnival of Time, but before he left, Evan told him where to get bottles in order to hold the eggs when he found them. Mikau went to race the Beaver Brothers to get the bottle they had, but unfortunately he lost against them and didn't get the bottle.
He then went and infiltrated the Pirates Fortress, but unfortunately did not succeed in getting the eggs back. The pirates left him floating in the waters of Great Bay and near death. After Link finds him and helps bring him back to shore, he manages to summon enough strength to tell Link what happened in the form of a song. He asks Link to heal his soul to which he obliges. After seeing an image of himself with Lulu and his band, his body fades away and in it's place is the Zora mask which allows Link to turn into a Zora and use Mikau's abilities.

=== Monkey ===
[[File:Monkey-Model.png|128px|right]]
{{Main|Monkey}}
This particular monkey is found tied up in the Deku Palace being falsely accused by the King of kidnapping the princess. He begs and pleads with the Deku people to go and help the princess who is being held at Woodfall Temple before it's too late, but they ignore him. It isn't until after some of his brothers ask Link after they see him help Koume by telling him about their brother's plight.
Link reaches the Monkey by sneaking around the palace guards that are in the garden surrounding the palace. Once he goes and talks to the monkey and learns that he went with the Princess to try and discover the reason for the swamp's poisoned water and that the princess was then taken by the boss of the temple during their search, he is convinced that it's innocent and Link shall learn the Sonata of Awakening from him. The King, the Butler, and the guards overhear the tune being played on Link's instrument which instantly makes the monkey look more guilty since the song he taught Link is one that the Deku only knew. Due to this, the King commences the monkey's punishment by lowering him repeatedly into a pot of boiling water while the guards and the king dance.
The monkey is later freed by the orders of the Princess when she is rescued and returned to the palace via Link's bottle. He forgives the King for his hastiness and is grateful to Link for helping the princess. At the end of the game during the credits, he is found standing with the Deku Royal Family and their guards in the Deku Palace.

=== Pamela ===
[[File:Pamela.png|128px|right]]
{{Main|Pamela}}
Pamela is a little girl who lives in the Music Box House in Ikana Canyon. Her father is a paranormal researcher, so they moved from their home in Clock Town to live in Ikana Canyon. Nothing is known about her mother, but she seems very mature for her age and constantly looks after her father while he conducts his dangerous research on ghosts. When her father investigates the Gibdo-infested well and comes back cursed, Pamela tries to look after him. She locks him in the closet in their basement to hide him from the Gibdos who start patrolling outside, telling her to bring him. Whenever someone tries to open the door, Pamela screams at them to leave them alone, mistaking them for a Gibdo.
Once Link's restored the river and the waterwheel-powered music box begins to play once more, the Gibdos are driven away. Pamela will run from Link if he tries to approach the house, but he can trick her into leaving the house for a brief time (during which she will peer into the well) and sneak inside the house. If he tries to hurt Pamela's Father, she will stop him and ask him to leave them alone, but if Link cures her father with the Song of Healing, she will run to hug her father as he's turned back to normal. Unable to remember what happened to him while cursed, he asks what he's been doing, to which Pamela simply tells him he was having a nightmare.
Later if Link comes back to visit, Pamela thanks him for helping them, but tells him to keep it a secret from her father. She's also worried that if her father sees Link's strange power, he will surely want to research it, so she doesn't want Link to meet her father. She immediately apologizes for saying such a thing. She says once her father's calmed down, she'll try to convince him to stop researching dangerous Ikana Canyon and come back to Clock Town.

=== Pamela's Father ===
[[File:Pamelas-Father.png|128px|right]]
{{Main|Pamela's Father}}
Pamela's Father is a supposedly famous paranormal researcher who is found living in the Music Box House in Ikana Canyon with his daughter Pamela during the events of Majora's Mask. He studies supernatural phenomena like fairies and ghosts, and even asks Link if he can conduct research on Tatl. He and his daughter used to live in Clock Town before moving to Ikana to research ghosts. Pamela's Father considers himself to be the expert on ghosts and claims no one in the world knows more than he does. He is somewhat reckless, much to his daughter's worry, and occasionally gets into trouble.
When Link first arrives in Ikana Valley, the scientist is actually cursed, transforming into a mummified Gibdo. He had attempted to investigate the Gibdo-infested well and as a result was afflicted with his current condition. His frightened daughter keeps him in a closet in the basement and locks the door to the house in an attempt to keep him away from the Gibdos who roam outside the house claiming that her father is one of them. When Link restores the river flow, the water-wheel on the Music Box House begins to spin and play its song once more. The song itself is called Farewell to Gibdos, and was discovered by Pamela's Father during his research. The song drives away Gibdos, as the name implies, and when it begins to play the Gibdos surrounding the house retreat into the earth. With the Gibdos gone, Pamela occasionally leaves the Music Box House, and while she's gone he can sneak into the basement and encounter Pamela's Father in his cursed form. Pamela will come and stop Link from attacking him, but if Link plays the Song of Healing, it will cure him of the curse and revert him back to a human. Link leaves him and Pamela alone as they share a heartwarming hug, gaining the Gibdo Mask created from the curse for his efforts.
Unable to remember what happened to him during the time of his curse, Pamela's Father continues with his research. Link can ask him about the pictures of a Gibdo and Garo Robe on his wall and he will tell him about those creatures. If Link speaks to him wearing one of the transformation masks, he will say his "Ghost Radar" is reacting fiercely and ask if Link will stay so he can research him.

=== Poe Collector ===
[[File:Poe-Collector-MM.png|128px|right]]
{{Main|Poe Collector}}
This mysterious character is the Terminian counterpart to the Poe Collector found in the house right of the gate to the Market in Hyrule during Link's adult years. The Poe Collector first appears at the top of the ledge leading to Ikana. He tells Link that he will not let him pass until he brings a certain mask. That mask is the Garo's Mask, which Link can get from the Gorman Brothers if he races against them and wins. Once he sees that Link has the mask, he believes that Link may be able to save the lost souls that are found in Ikana. He allows him to pass and summons a tree next to him that Link can use his Hookshot on to get on top of the ledge. Afterwards he disappears and he reappears later on in two different places.
One of the places is at the Spirit House which is located on the top of Ikana Canyon and near the dried-up river bed(or river depending on whether or not Link brought the water back). There he hosts a mini-game where Link must fight and defeat the four Poe Sisters during a set time. After completing the task, Link will obtain a Piece of Heart. The second place he is found can be located after Link obtains the Light Arrows and this place would be the Secret Shrine which is found at the foot of Ikana Canyon's water source. This time around he has Link facing the four mini-bosses from the dungeons he entered who all wish to have a rematch with him. In order to get to fight all of the mini-bosses, Link must have a certain amount of hearts which varies for each individual one. Once Link has beaten them all, he is given another Piece of Heart and thanks to Link's efforts, the Poe Collector can finally move on.

{{Main|Sharp}}
Sharp is the Terminian counterpart of the Sharp that haunts Kakariko Village's graveyard in Hyrule. He is found in the cave that is the source of the water that used to run next to the Music Box House, but due to his curse, the river has dried up and made the Gibdo-ridding music stop playing. When Link enters the cave for the fist time, he appears and asks him what business does he have in a land like Ikana. Sharp decides that Link's reason for being here is to die and begins to play the Melody of Darkness that he composed. The song slowly drains Link of his life force as the notes are being played. Link attempts to play the Song of Healing, but he finds that it is unable to make Sharp stop playing the music.
It isn't until Link goes to the Ikana Graveyard and finds Sharp's brother, Flat, being guarded by an Iron Knuckle. Upon defeating the warrior, Flat's spirit appears and tells Link how he ended up there. After Sharp sold his soul to the devil, Sharp imprisoned Flat under the Ikana Graveyard and had him guarded. Flat teaches Link the melody of the Song of Storms, the only song that can soothe Sharp's spirit.
Link returns to the cave and once again meets Sharp. Link plays the Song of Storms on his ocarina and upon hearing it, Sharp realizes that this brother had wrote this song to help him. He reveals that he wished to revive the Royal Family, which he and Flat were composers for. This wish may be the reason why he sold his soul. The song breaks the curse upon him and in thanks, he tells Link of a way to enter the Stone Tower Temple by means of visiting the King of the Royal Family of Ikana. He moves onto the afterlife after telling Link this information which effectively removes the curse that was on the water in the cave and allows Ikana River to flow once more and cleanses the area of the Gibdos by means of the Music Box House.

[[File:Anjus-Mother-Model.png|128px|right]]
{{Main|Anju's Mother}}
The mother to the Stock Pot Inn Innkeeper, Anju, and daughter-in-law to Anju's Grandmother. She is middle-aged and has a rounded appearance. She is protective of her daughter and hates that her daughter's fiance, Kafei, has left without saying a word to Anju. This is evident in how she responds to Link wearing Kafei's Mask when speaking to her. She will become visibly angry and raise a fist at Link, telling him to not speak to her with "that unpleasant mask" on. She believes that the reason behind his disappearance is because he has run off with Cremia whom notably has a crush on the blue-haired man and as Anju's Mother surmises that she will need financial support for running the ranch through Kafei's mother, Madame Aroma. Another reason behind her anger towards Kafei's disappearance maybe be due to her own husband disappearance. She believed that he would return and waited for him, but found that he wasn't coming back. She believes that because of this she passed down her naivety to her daughter.
Anju's Mother doesn't appear very often in the game. In the instances when she does appear it is usually on the second day standing at the desk at Stock Pot Inn (if Anju didn't meet Link with Kafei's mask during the afternoon of the First Day). She also appears in a secret cutscene which is accessible during a certain point in time in which she discusses Kafei's disappearance with Anju. Later on, she, her mother-in-law, and Anju (depending on whether or not she received the Pendant of Memories) seek shelter at Romani Ranch on the night of the third day. Her last appearance is after Link stops the moon from falling and defeats Majora's Mask. She is seen standing along with the others who are attending Kafei's and Anju's wedding. It is unknown if she still harbors the same anger towards her new son-in-law or if she has forgiven him for leaving his daughter for a long amount of time.

When Link meets the Banker during the events of Majora's Mask, he tells Link about a special deal he's doing for a limited time to promote depositing in which people will receive gifts depending on how many rupees they desposit, awarding Link several items for depositing large amounts of rupees throughout the game. He stamps Link with his special, invisible ink to remember him, somehow recognizing Link and the amount he has deposited even after multiple trips through time.

{{Main|Beaver Brothers}}
These are two strange creatures who swim around their home, the Waterfall Rapids, located at the top of the waterfall that feeds into Great Bay. Mikau tried to race them for an Empty Bottle that he could use to retrieve the Zora Eggs, but failed. When Link later comes wearing the Zora Mask, the orange-colored little brother recognizes him as Mikau and gladly accepts another challenge. The following race involves following the Beaver through the water and swimming through rings. When the little brother loses, he calls his yellow-colored big brother. Since the Beaver Brothers consider Empty Bottles to be a valuable treasure, he will not let Link have one just because he beat his little brother. Link races the elder of the two in a more difficult challenge with more rings, but ultimately wins the Empty Bottle, while the Beaver Brothers admit they underestimated Link. He can then race them a third time in a race with a shorter time limit. When he wins they desperately want him to leave them alone, so they give him a Heart Piece and hope that it's over.

The Terminian counterpart of the Hyrule Market Treasure Chest Game Owner. He is a man living in a hut on the Great Bay Coast. He claims to be the greatest fisherman, even better than the Zoras, but is now having trouble catching fish because the water has become warm. The Fisherman used to own the Hookshot which he used to snatch fish right out of the water. He also claims the Hookshot is a legendary treasure, but that it was stolen from him by the Gerudo Pirates.

He seems very interested in the women, and asks Link to bring him a good pictograph of one of the pirates in exchange for the rare seahorse he caught.
After Link returns the seas to normal by defeating Gyorg, the Fisherman decides to start up a new business for tourists called the Fisherman's Jumping Game. Located in a different area of the Great Bay Coast than his hut, the game takes place on a series of tiny islands only reachable by boat and Hookshot.

=== Four Giants ===
[[File:Majoras-Mask-Giants.jpg|128px|right]]
{{Main|Four Giants}}
The guardian gods and creators of Termina. Long before the story of Majora's Mask, the people all lived together, and the Giants lived with them as they protected them. On the day of the harvest festival (later known as the Carnival of Time) where the people wore masks of the Giants to honor them, the Four Giants told the people that they shall continue to protect the people from their slumber. They then departed from the location where the Clock Tower would later be built, each walking 100 steps in each of the compass directions, where they slept. They told the people that if they had need of them, to loudly call and declare their plight, so that their voice may carry to the sleeping giants.
One day every year, atop the Clock Tower during the Carnival of Time, and ancient song is sung in a ceremony to call the gods. Whether this is a tribute to the Giants or the way the people actually called for their help is unclear.
One person was very shocked and sad that the Giants had chosen to sleep. That person was a little imp, the Skull Kid, who had been friends with the giants since before they created the four worlds. Feeling neglected, the Skull Kid was angry and repeatedly wronged the people. Eventually they were overcome and called out to the Giants. They awoke and confronted the Skull Kid, roaring out, warning him that if he does not stop hurting the people they will destroy him. The Skull Kid left, sad that he had lost his old friends.
During the events of Majora's Mask, the Four Giants have been sealed away by the Skull Kid to prevent them from trying to stop him. They each were each sealed within a mask, worn by four monsters guarding the Woodfall, Snowhead, Great Bay, and Stone Tower Temples. Upon confronting the Skull Kid atop the Clock Tower, Tael tells Link about the four locations, saying "The four who are there...Bring them here..."
After freeing the first Giant in Woodfall, Link is taught the Oath to Order (likely the song sung for the Giants atop the Clock Tower), and the Giant tells Link to call them. Without knowing the true nature of the Giants, Link frees the other three, gradually learning about their true nature as protective gods and then receiving a request to help their friend, the Skull Kid. Finally they Giants tell them they should forgive the Skull Kid before once more telling Link to call them.
Atop the Clock Tower after midnight on the Third Day, Link plays the Oath to Order, causing the Four Giants to let out their cries and then appear to stop the moon from colliding with Termina. Once Majora's Mask discards the Skull Kid and enters the moon, the Four Giants are no longer enough to stop it but manage to hold it off until Link is victorious against Majora.
After the battle is over the Four Giants tell the liberated Skull Kid that they never forgot about him, that they always considered him their friend. Afterwards, the Four Giants cry out the Oath to Order as they return to sleep in the four regions once more.

[[File:Goron-Elder-Model.png|128px|right]]
{{Main|Goron Elder (Majora's Mask)}}
The Goron Elder is the leader of the Gorons who live in Goron Village located in the Snowhead area. He is an older Goron and has a son who can be found in the Goron Shrine in the village crying due to him missing his father greatly. After realizing that the only thing that can calm the crying Goron down is his father, Link goes to try and find him. He finally finds the Elder encased in a giant snow boulder and covered in ice. Depending on which day Link finds him he can be found either near the entrance to Goron Village on Day 1, near the ramp in the Spectacle Rock(the area in Snowhead where two hills are surrounded by water) area on Day 2, and on the Third Day next to the Owl Statue in Mountain Village. By the way his location changes this shows that he is headed to Snowhead, possibly to find out the cause of the snow covering the area and to probably try and stop it. When Link obtains some Hot Spring Water (found either in the cave where Darmani's Grave is or in the hole that has ice over it on one of the islands in the Spectacle Rock area) and uses it on the ice surrounding the Elder, he unfreezes and is shocked to find Darmani (Goron Link) in front of him. He convinces himself that Goron Link is an illusion that is being created by Snowhead's magic and proceeds to walk away from him.
Upon hearing from Goron Link that his son is upset and is missing him, he attempts to teach him the Goron's Lullaby but he finds himself unable to remember all the notes to the song. He then teaches Goron Link the six notes of the song that he does remember. Upon playing those notes to his son, the young Goron teaches Goron Link the rest of it. After the Elder has taught the song to Goron Link he will begin to walk again obviously intent on reaching his destination. He will become frozen again shortly afterwards and there is nothing that Link can do to prevent it from occurring as it will keep happening. It will only stop once Link has defeated the boss from Snowhead and restored spring to the area. After Link has beaten Snowhead Temple he will find the Elder in the Goron Shrine surrounded by fellow Gorons. He will then announce that since he is getting old it is time for him to choose a successor. He tells Goron Link that he has chosen him (thinking he is Darmani) to be his successor. He believes that everyone will be happy with Darmani being the patriarch of Goron Village.

Because of this noise, all the gorons in Goron Shrine have been driven to the point of exhaustion from the shrieks of a crying baby goron. They plug their ears with their fingers and jump up and down, desperately trying to block out the noise.
When Link speaks to the goron elder's son, Link finds out that he is crying over three things: the extreme cold, his fatigue, and the fact that has father has now gone missing. In order to help the infant, and indirectly the rest of the gorons, Link must find and unfreeze the Goron Elder in the pathway between Mountain Village and Goron Village. When the Goron Elder is unfrozen, he will try to teach you the Goron Lullaby, but in the end he forgets the second part, and can only teach Link the first part. When Link (with the goron mask on) plays the first part of the Goron Lullaby in front of the elder's son, he will recognize the song immediately. He will then stand up, and help Link finish the song by teaching Link the second part of the lullaby. After Link plays it correctly, the goron elder's son becomes sleepy, and stops crying. He finally curls up and falls asleep right on the throne. In a moment of relief, all the gorons will curl up and begin to catch up on their much needed rest. He will sleep for as long as Snowhead Temple is left untouched.
After Link clears Snowhead Temple, the goron elder's son can be found next to the entrance to the Goron Racetrack. He waits outside the boulder, because this year, the Goron Elder sent his son to run the races in his stead. To destroy the boulder, Link can go to Medigoron in Goron Village to learn how to use Powder Kegs. The initiation to be able to gain a powder keg license is to bring a keg from Medigoron's house to the the Goron Racetrack's entrance. As soon as the track is open, the elder's son will walk in and begin the races. Goron Link can enter the race by talking to the son. If Link wins the race, he will give him a bottle of gold dust. The goron elder's son is key in the journey to Snowhead, and his attatchment to Darmani is a melancholy reminder of the consequences of Link walking around with the Goron Mask equipped.

=== Great Fairy ===
[[File:Great Fairy MM.png|128px|right]]
{{Main|Great Fairy}}
Five Great Fairies inhabit the land of Termina, spread equally across the world. However, Skull Kid has divided these great fairies into a large amount of smaller fairies. While the majority of the fairies have kept their residence in the Fairy Fountains, some have strayed from the fountain and have trapped themselves in either a temple or random corners of Clock Town.
It is Tatl who first suggests seeking out the Great Fairy, thinking that the Great Fairy will be able to stop Skull Kid dead in his tracks. But as Link first enters the fountain in North Clock Town, Tatl finds a Great Fairy shattered into a group of smaller fairies. The smaller fairies beg Link to go find the only fairy missing from the mass. Link can find this fairy flying over the Laundry pool during the day, or in East Clock Town at night. Once Link brings back the fairy, all the smaller fairies will spin and form into the Great Fairy of Magic, the fairy Link is likely to have the most interaction with. As a gift, Link will get the ability to blow bubbles and shoot them as projectiles. After the first three days, if Link restores the Great Fairy of Magic again, she will give Link the Great Fairy's mask. When Link wears the mask in a dungeon, If there is a fairy in the room, its hair will shimmer. Also, any Fairy released from a bubble or in the air will float over to Link while he wears the mask.
If Link gathers 15 fairies from one dungeon, he will be able to rescue the Great Fairies from other parts of the world. The Great Fairy of Power lives in a cave on the rim of Woodfall, and will teach Link a supercharged spin attack. The Great Fairy of Wisdom lives in a cave below the entrance to Snowhead Temple, and will double the length of Link's magic meter if released. In Great Bay, The Great Fairy of Courage lives a number of ledges away from the seashore near Zora Cape, and will give Link the power of double life. Finally, the Great Fairy of Kindness lives in Ikana, is gives the Great Fairy's Sword to anyone who manages to gather all the fairies from Stone Tower Temple. The hair color of the Great Fairies will correspond to the color of their smaller fairy forms.

=== Igos du Ikana ===
[[File:Igos-Du-Ikana.png|128px|right]]
{{Main|Igos du Ikana}}
Igos du Ikana is the undead king of Ikana. His throne room is in Ikana Castle, in the room farthest to the north. At all times during the 3 day cycle he sits waiting, with two guards by his side.
Igos is the tragic king of Ikana. Long before the events of the game, Ikana was a great nation, a bastion of military prowess and prosperity. Little is known about Ikana's history, but at some point Ikana went to war with another nation. The war was long and bloody, and at the end of the war, Ikana was destroyed beyond repair, and Igos du Ikana locked himself in his castle.
When Link enters the throne room of Igos, he will tell Link that he has trespassed on a cursed land, and sends his guards to attack. Using light from the windows (use a fire arrow to burn the shades), Link can stun, and eventually kill his henchmen. After his guards fall, Igos rises from his throne and draws his sword.
At this point, Igos is an enemy which Link must defeat in order to exit the room and continue with the game. Igos can be stunned if he Link shines light on him while he is preparing an attack. After he is stunned, slash him with the sword until he comes to. Igos has to special attacks which his servants lacked. One, he can breathe ice, and freeze Link if he gets too close. Two, he has the ability to decapitate himself and have his head chase you around the room. In order to avoid this one, Link should run continuously around the room, avoiding sharp turns or stopping. A couple of good hits and Igos should be down in a handful of minutes.
Once Igos goes down, his servants will start to bicker and fight as floating heads. Igos intervenes, and questions if that fighting attitude was what ruined Ikana in the first place. Being released from his curse, he thanks Link, and begs him to vanquish the evil inside Stone Tower. Igos teaches Link the Elegy of Emptiness to help him climb Stone Tower.
Igos appears in the credits wavering with his servants. Also, if Link wears the Captain's Hat before Igos attacks, Igos will get confused for a moment, before realizing that he is being tricked. His servants also have a comedic reaction to the Bremen's Mask.

{{Main|Kaepora Gaebora}}
Like his Hyrulean counterpart, Kaepora Gaebora is a giant owl that appears at several points to give Link advice and guide him on his journey. He has no explanation or backstory, unlike the Kaepora Gaebora from Hyrule. The Owl Statues throughout Termina that look like Kaepora Gaebora were left by him to aid one with the power to change Termina's destiny. Kaepora Gaebora seems strangely aware of Termina's impending fate and is actively seeking someone who can change that fate.
He first appears in the Southern Swamp when Link is on his way to Woodfall Temple, recognizing Link as a fairy child, a rare sight, and asks what business he has in the poisoned swamp. He tells Link he wouldn't blame him if he turned back, and suggests that Link head back to town. During this encounter he informs Link that Woodfall has lost its guardian deity, one of the Four Giants, but that it was destined to fade anyway as was the rest of the land. He tells Link that if he has courage enough to press on in the face of destiny, then he will teach him the Song of Soaring, allowing Link to transport to any of his Owl Statues. He tells Link that from the moment he first plays the song, Link and him will become eternal friends, transcending time and place. Kaepora Gaebora then flies off.
He later reappears in Goron Village. After greeting Link, he tells him he may have the strength to change Termina's destiny like he expected. He warns Link that the trials ahead will only become more challenging, also requesting of Link to watch over the Gorons. The land of the Gorons is doomed to be smothered in snow and ice, and become a land where nothing can survive. Kaepora Gaebora tells Link that without courage and determination he will succumb to the extreme conditions, but if he has both then it is another story. He asks Link if he intends to press on, responding to his answer of yes by saying that perhaps he does have the strength to change the fate of the mountain after all. The owl then leads Link across a chasm to the Lens of Truth. Once Link makes it there, Kaepora Gaebora is assured of Link's resolve. His final advice to Link is that from here on out he should not be fooled by appearances and instead rely on his feelings. Kaepora Gaebora then flies off, never appearing again.

=== Link the Goron ===
[[File:Kotake.png|128px|right]]
{{Main|Kotake}}
Kotake is the witch who runs the Southern Swamp Potion Shop. She is always open, and can sell Link red and green potions during the daytime. She is the cheery old witch who has a tendency to fall asleep on the job. Her potion shop lies east of the Southern Swamp tourist center, where her sister works.
 
Link must speak to Kotake in order to save her sister, Koume, from inside the Mystery Woods. Before he can do so, he must find Koume at the end of the Woods of Mystery. Otherwise, Kotake won't find out that her sister is missing. Kotake will give Link his first bottle, full of red potion. If Link brings this bottle back to Koume, she will thank him, and head back to the tourist center. If Link does not save Koume before nightfall, Kotake will temporarily leave the shop to find her sister.
 
After Link receives the Mask of Scents, Link can help out Kotake with her potion-making. With the Mask of Scents, Link can find the Magic Mushrooms which Kotake has been searching for. When Link gives her the mushrooms, she will whip up a batch of a previously-unavailable potion; blue potion. For his effort, she will give Link a bottle full of the first batch.
 
Kotake, along with her sister, Koume, made an earlier appearance in Ocarina of Time. Kotake was an Ice Witch who guarded the Spirit Temple with her fiery sister, Koume. Kotake and Koume seems to be the only two characters which have changed from enemies to friends between the two games.

=== Koume ===
[[File:Koume.png|128px|right]]
{{Main|Koume}}
Before Link arrives to Termina, Koume, the kindly old witch of the swamp has the misfortune of running into Skull Kid. With her power sapped, she is trapped inside of the Woods of Mystery, and in need of Link's help. To find her, Link must enter the Woods of Mystery in Southern Swamp, behind her sister's potion shop.
 
Link can find Koume by following the monkey at the beginning of the woods. He will lead Link through the passages of the Woods of Mystery, and bring him to Koume, along with a group of his monkey friends. When Link speaks to Koume, she'll beg Link for something to restore her energy. In order to help her, Link must exit the Woods of Mystery and enter Kotake's potion shop. When Kotake, the identical twin sister of Koume, finds out about her sister's plight for help she will tell Link to go save her. She will also give Link a bottle full of red potion to do the job. If Link navigates the forest again, he can give the potion to Koume, restoring her energy.
 
Restored and replenished, Koume will thank you and fly back to her job running the Southern Swamp Boat Cruise. For helping her, Koume will give Link his first ride on the house. Also, Koume will give Link the Pictograph for free, because of the pictograph contest also working out of the Swamp Tourist Center. Her cruise leads to Deku Palace, and is the only way to navigate the poison swamp. After his first ride, Koume will make Link pay 10 rupees for each subsequent ride. After Woodfall Temple is cleared, and the waters of the swamp are cleared along with it, Koume will offer Link something more than a tour. For 10 rupees, Link can play a game in which Link can pelt Koume with arrows while on the boat cruise. In the game, Koume will follow along in front of the Swamp tour boat, and hold a target right below her. If Link can hit the target 25 times before Koume returns to the tourist center, She will give him a piece of heart. But be careful, Koume doesn't take kindly to being shot, and she will cancel the game prematurely if Link hits her too many times. But this number is pretty high, so firing the bow as many times as possible is still Link's best bet to win. From the old lady in need of help to allowing Link to shoot his bow near her, Koume is one of those 360 degree characters. For more information of Koume, read up on her twin sister, Kotake.

[[File:Lulu.png|128px|right]]
{{Main|Lulu}}
Lulu is the lead singer for the legendary all Zora band The Indigo-Go's. She can be found on the outside ledge of Zora Cape, near the Owl Stone. Lulu wears a blue dress, and is unable to speak to Link or anyone else... for now.
Lulu has lost her voice under tragic circumstances. Before the three day cycle, Lulu had given birth to seven Zora eggs, fathered by Mikau, the guitarist from the Indigo-Go's. With the birth of her eggs, Evan, the bandleader, suggested sending her eggs to the Marine Laboratory near the coast for safe keeping. These eggs were captured by the Gerudo pirates en route to the laboratory. The Gerudo, tricked by Skull Kid into believing the eggs were the key to gaining access to the Great Bay Temple, stole all 7 eggs, but only were able to bring four back to the base. With all her eggs kidnapped, Lulu falls into a depression, and the loss of her voice ensues.
In order for Link to help Lulu, he must first retrieve all 7 of her eggs. Link can find the first four in Gerudo Fortress, and the last three are underwater at Pinnacle Rock being guarded by gigantic eels. Lulu's eggs fit into bottles, and can be released safely into the giant tank in the Marine Research Lab. When all seven eggs are found, the eggs will hatch, and teach Link the New Wave Bossa Nova. But, although the eggs are safe, Lulu will still be unable to sing. Link must defeat Gyorg, and clear the Great Bay Temple in order to bring Lulu's voice back.
The reason for Lulu's loss of voice is directly tied to the Great Bay Temple. Lulu seems to be in a lineage of guardians of the Temple, and their fates are intertwined. Also a guardian of the Great Bay Temple, Lulu's mom, also named Lulu, was previously the guardian, along with the previous singer for the Indigo-Go's. When Link wears the Zora Mask, Lulu will see him as Mikau, her lover and fellow musician.

This strange man makes his home in a secret grotto in the Deku Palace, and his presence is probably unknown to the Deku Royal Family. He says he doesn't get much business, likely due to his location.

He is also given the duty of containing and caring for Lulu's eggs, a job made difficult by the disappearance of them.
One of his prime concerns is the retrieval of Lulu's eggs. Link must empty all of the eggs into one of his holding tanks, and it is left to the researcher to figure out their ailment. After all 7 are collected, these eggs hatch, and develop into zora tadpoles. These tadpoles then float to specific depths, to give the appearance of musical notes on a staff. The researcher is astonished by this development, and asks Link what it could possibly mean. Not much else is explained about the researcher, just that he is a crazy old guy who is really interested in water and what lives in it.

The 2nd largest goron, Medigoron sells Powder Kegs out of his cave in Goron Village. However, the endless winter has put him out of business, due to a giant block of ice covering the entrance to his cave. Inside, he will wait until spring.
After Link defeats Goht and the spell cast over Snowhead dissipates, he will be able to go visit Medigoron. Along with selling Powder Kegs, Medigoron is in charge of training new users of the bomb as well. Wearing the Goron Mask, Link will be able to take the powder keg license test, the assignment being clearing the boulder in front of the Goron Racetrack. Link will be given a powder keg with a very long fuse, and will be asked to transport the bomb out of the cave and across the village. When Link succeeds in doing so, he can return to Medigoron for his first powder keg which is on the house.
After Link is powder keg trained, he can return to Medigoron in springtime (or winter with fire arrows) to buy a powder keg off of Medigoron for 100 rupees. Even though Medigoron seems to be the authority on these large explosives, his asking price is inflated. With the ability to carry powder kegs, Link can locate the goron in Clock Town's bomb shop to buy powder kegs for 50 rupees. Medigoron may be the chief, but the price isn't right as long as he can be outdone by the more accessible and cheaper goron in the Bomb Shop.

He had a close relationship with Lulu, the band's singer, and was angry when he was told by Evan that the eggs she had laid were stolen by the Gerudo Pirates. Evan told him to go find the eggs before the concert they were to have at the Carnival of Time, but before he left, Evan told him where to get bottles in order to hold the eggs when he found them. Mikau went to race the Beaver Brothers to get the bottle they had, but unfortunately he lost against them and didn't get the bottle.
He then went and infiltrated the Pirates Fortress, but unfortunately did not succeed in getting the eggs back. The pirates left him floating in the waters of Great Bay and near death. After Link finds him and helps bring him back to shore, he manages to summon enough strength to tell Link what happened in the form of a song. He asks Link to heal his soul to which he obliges. After seeing an image of himself with Lulu and his band, his body fades away and in it's place is the Zora mask which allows Link to turn into a Zora and use Mikau's abilities.

This particular monkey is found tied up in the Deku Palace being falsely accused by the King of kidnapping the princess.

It isn't until after some of his brothers ask Link after they see him help Koume by telling him about their brother's plight.
Link reaches the Monkey by sneaking around the palace guards that are in the garden surrounding the palace. Once he goes and talks to the monkey and learns that he went with the Princess to try and discover the reason for the swamp's poisoned water and that the princess was then taken by the boss of the temple during their search, he is convinced that it's innocent and Link shall learn the Sonata of Awakening from him. The King, the Butler, and the guards overhear the tune being played on Link's instrument which instantly makes the monkey look more guilty since the song he taught Link is one that the Deku only knew. Due to this, the King commences the monkey's punishment by lowering him repeatedly into a pot of boiling water while the guards and the king dance.
The monkey is later freed by the orders of the Princess when she is rescued and returned to the palace via Link's bottle. He forgives the King for his hastiness and is grateful to Link for helping the princess. At the end of the game during the credits, he is found standing with the Deku Royal Family and their guards in the Deku Palace.

This mysterious character is the Terminian counterpart to the Poe Collector found in the house right of the gate to the Market in Hyrule during Link's adult years. The Poe Collector first appears at the top of the ledge leading to Ikana. He tells Link that he will not let him pass until he brings a certain mask. That mask is the Garo's Mask, which Link can get from the Gorman Brothers if he races against them and wins. Once he sees that Link has the mask, he believes that Link may be able to save the lost souls that are found in Ikana. He allows him to pass and summons a tree next to him that Link can use his Hookshot on to get on top of the ledge. Afterwards he disappears and he reappears later on in two different places.
One of the places is at the Spirit House which is located on the top of Ikana Canyon and near the dried-up river bed(or river depending on whether or not Link brought the water back). There he hosts a mini-game where Link must fight and defeat the four Poe Sisters during a set time. After completing the task, Link will obtain a Piece of Heart. The second place he is found can be located after Link obtains the Light Arrows and this place would be the Secret Shrine which is found at the foot of Ikana Canyon's water source. This time around he has Link facing the four mini-bosses from the dungeons he entered who all wish to have a rematch with him. In order to get to fight all of the mini-bosses, Link must have a certain amount of hearts which varies for each individual one. Once Link has beaten them all, he is given another Piece of Heart and thanks to Link's efforts, the Poe Collector can finally move on.

Nothing is known about her mother, but she seems very mature for her age and constantly looks after her father while he conducts his dangerous research on ghosts. When her father investigates the Gibdo-infested well and comes back cursed, Pamela tries to look after him. She locks him in the closet in their basement to hide him from the Gibdos who start patrolling outside, telling her to bring him. Whenever someone tries to open the door, Pamela screams at them to leave them alone, mistaking them for a Gibdo.
Once Link's restored the river and the waterwheel-powered music box begins to play once more, the Gibdos are driven away. Pamela will run from Link if he tries to approach the house, but he can trick her into leaving the house for a brief time (during which she will peer into the well) and sneak inside the house. If he tries to hurt Pamela's Father, she will stop him and ask him to leave them alone, but if Link cures her father with the Song of Healing, she will run to hug her father as he's turned back to normal. Unable to remember what happened to him while cursed, he asks what he's been doing, to which Pamela simply tells him he was having a nightmare.
Later if Link comes back to visit, Pamela thanks him for helping them, but tells him to keep it a secret from her father. She's also worried that if her father sees Link's strange power, he will surely want to research it, so she doesn't want Link to meet her father. She immediately apologizes for saying such a thing. She says once her father's calmed down, she'll try to convince him to stop researching dangerous Ikana Canyon and come back to Clock Town.

=== Pamela's Father ===
[[File:Pamelas-Father.png|128px|right]]
{{Main|Pamela's Father}}
Pamela's Father is a supposedly famous paranormal researcher who is found living in the Music Box House in Ikana Canyon with his daughter Pamela during the events of Majora's Mask. He studies supernatural phenomena like fairies and ghosts, and even asks Link if he can conduct research on Tatl. He and his daughter used to live in Clock Town before moving to Ikana to research ghosts. Pamela's Father considers himself to be the expert on ghosts and claims no one in the world knows more than he does. He is somewhat reckless, much to his daughter's worry, and occasionally gets into trouble.
When Link first arrives in Ikana Valley, the scientist is actually cursed, transforming into a mummified Gibdo. He had attempted to investigate the Gibdo-infested well and as a result was afflicted with his current condition. His frightened daughter keeps him in a closet in the basement and locks the door to the house in an attempt to keep him away from the Gibdos who roam outside the house claiming that her father is one of them. When Link restores the river flow, the water-wheel on the Music Box House begins to spin and play its song once more. The song itself is called Farewell to Gibdos, and was discovered by Pamela's Father during his research. The song drives away Gibdos, as the name implies, and when it begins to play the Gibdos surrounding the house retreat into the earth. With the Gibdos gone, Pamela occasionally leaves the Music Box House, and while she's gone he can sneak into the basement and encounter Pamela's Father in his cursed form. Pamela will come and stop Link from attacking him, but if Link plays the Song of Healing, it will cure him of the curse and revert him back to a human. Link leaves him and Pamela alone as they share a heartwarming hug, gaining the Gibdo Mask created from the curse for his efforts.
Unable to remember what happened to him during the time of his curse, Pamela's Father continues with his research. Link can ask him about the pictures of a Gibdo and Garo Robe on his wall and he will tell him about those creatures. If Link speaks to him wearing one of the transformation masks, he will say his "Ghost Radar" is reacting fiercely and ask if Link will stay so he can research him.

{{Main|Professor}}
The Princess of Hyrule and the last person Link sees before leaving Hyrule. She only appears in a flashback that Link has once he regains back his Ocarina from the Skull Kid. In that flashback, it shows that gave Link the Ocarina of Time as a memento of their time together and re-taught him the Song of Time stating for him to play that song if anything bad were to happen to him. She believes that she and Link shall meet again.
The Professor spends all his time in his lab, off the coast of Great Bay. There, he has multiple experiments he keeps his eyes on, and overall just is focused on the marine ecosystem of Great Bay. He is also given the duty of containing and caring for Lulu's eggs, a job made difficult by the disappearance of them.
 
One of his prime concerns is the retrieval of Lulu's eggs. Link must empty all of the eggs into one of his holding tanks, and it is left to the researcher to figure out their ailment. After all 7 are collected, these eggs hatch, and develop into zora tadpoles. These tadpoles then float to specific depths, to give the appearance of musical notes on a staff. The researcher is astonished by this development, and asks Link what it could possibly mean. Not much else is explained about the researcher, just that he is a crazy old guy who is really interested in water and what lives in it.

=== Sharp ===
[[File:Sharp-Model.png|128px|right]]
{{Main|Sharp}}
Sharp is the Terminian counterpart of the Sharp that haunts Kakariko Village's graveyard in Hyrule. He is found in the cave that is the source of the water that used to run next to the Music Box House, but due to his curse, the river has dried up and made the Gibdo-ridding music stop playing. When Link enters the cave for the fist time, he appears and asks him what business does he have in a land like Ikana. Sharp decides that Link's reason for being here is to die and begins to play the Melody of Darkness that he composed. The song slowly drains Link of his life force as the notes are being played. Link attempts to play the Song of Healing, but he finds that it is unable to make Sharp stop playing the music.
It isn't until Link goes to the Ikana Graveyard and finds Sharp's brother, Flat, being guarded by an Iron Knuckle. Upon defeating the warrior, Flat's spirit appears and tells Link how he ended up there. After Sharp sold his soul to the devil, Sharp imprisoned Flat under the Ikana Graveyard and had him guarded. Flat teaches Link the melody of the Song of Storms, the only song that can soothe Sharp's spirit.
Link returns to the cave and once again meets Sharp. Link plays the Song of Storms on his ocarina and upon hearing it, Sharp realizes that this brother had wrote this song to help him. He reveals that he wished to revive the Royal Family, which he and Flat were composers for. This wish may be the reason why he sold his soul. The song breaks the curse upon him and in thanks, he tells Link of a way to enter the Stone Tower Temple by means of visiting the King of the Royal Family of Ikana. He moves onto the afterlife after telling Link this information which effectively removes the curse that was on the water in the cave and allows Ikana River to flow once more and cleanses the area of the Gibdos by means of the Music Box House.

{{Main|Turtle}}
On the edge of Zora's Cape, right next to the Owl Stone, Lulu can be found looking out to the sea. After Link learns the New Wave Bossa Nova, he is able to help her and her spent voice. But once Link plays the song for Lulu something unexpected happens. The inconspicuous island out in the sea rises up to reveal a Giant Turtle! Not much is known about the turtle who lives off of Zora Cape, but he seems to have a guardian role for the Zora people. He is also the only means of transportation to get to the Great Bay Temple. Once awakened, the turtle will tell Link to jump on his back to hitch a ride to the Temple. Link can get onto him by using the Hookshot on one of the trees growing out of his back.
After Link clears the temple, the turtle will thank him for his effort, and tell Link that he must resume his slumber. He also comments that he can only do so much to reverse the coming doom of Termina, due to the bidding of the gods.

The razor sword can double Link's attack power, but only for 100 hits. After that, the sword will return to the Kokiri sword, and his attack power will return to normal. If Link wants to make this sword upgrade permanently, he will need a bottle of Gold Dust. After Link defeats Goht, and spring returns to the Snowhead area, Link can win this gold dust as a prize for first place in the Goron races. When Link gives the gold dust along with the Razor Sword, Zubora will agree to reforge the sword again, this time free of charge (Zubora keeps some of the gold dust for himself). The next morning, Link can return for the Gilded sword, a sword well worth the trouble. Zubora is only in it for the business, but the upgrade Link can acquire from him is invaluable.
