The Skull Kid in ''Majora's Mask'' is known to be the same Skull Kid for whom Link played Saria's Song in ''Ocarina of Time''; this is implied at the end of the game when the Skull Kid says that Link has the same smell as the fairy child that taught him a song in the woods. | The Skull Kid in ''Majora's Mask'' is known to be the same Skull Kid for whom Link played Saria's Song in ''Ocarina of Time''; this is implied at the end of the game when the Skull Kid says that Link has the same smell as the fairy child that taught him a song in the woods. | ||

The Skull Kid first appears in ''Twilight Princess'' when Link enters the Lost Woods. The imp leads Link through the Lost Woods via a game of hide and seek. The game Skull Kid plays is fairly simple: there is always a clue as to where he is, as the orange glow from Skull Kid's lantern can often point Link in the direction he took off in. His horn, which resembles [[Deku Link]]'s pipes in ''Majora's Mask'', also guides Link to him. When Link gets near him, he hears him playing the familiar Saria's Song, which sets the mood perfectly. During the game of hide and seek, Skull Kid repeatedly summons [[Puppet]]s to attack Link as he chases him, while Skull Kid never attacks Link directly. | The Skull Kid first appears in ''Twilight Princess'' when Link enters the Lost Woods.

When Link returns later in the game, Skull Kid once again helps Link navigate the [[Sacred Grove]], although this time, he leads Link to the entrance of the [[Temple of Time]]. This time around, his hiding place is harder to find. Two things give away his location: the light of his lantern and the sound of his instrument playing Saria's Song. Again, the Skull Kid never physically attacks Link, though he summons Puppets to do the job. Every time he is hit in battle, he summons more Puppets, but he can be beaten quickly with the bow and arrows. After defeating him the second time, he tells Link that it was fun and then disappears. | When Link returns later in the game, Skull Kid once again helps Link navigate the [[Sacred Grove]], although this time, he leads Link to the entrance of the [[Temple of Time]].
