User:MaloMart/My Zelda Game

Hi, this is MaloMart's special page, for my plan for my own Zelda game which everyone will love.

Note: Many ideas in this game are shared in XYZ's game. I felt I should note that we came up with the games independantly, and just happened to end up with a lot of the same ideas.

The Beginnin'
The game will begin on a small mountain village just west of Hyrule. In this village lives Link, a seventeen year-old boy who has a job as a horse wrangler. All is well until a giant flying snake attacks the village. It devours every single child in town, except for Link, who was off collecting a woman's lost monkey. When Link returns, he vows to go after the snake and return the children. He gets a sword from his fencing trainer, a crazy old man with the strength of a thousand crazy old men. Link leaves the mountain, taking his trusty horse Epona, and sets off for adventure.

At the base of the mountain lies the border of Hyrule, where Link meets a kindly old lady who tells him that the very same snake has been swallowing all of Hyrule's children. She says that if Link wants to defeat the snake, he should know where it lives, and only one man knows where. Unfortunately, this man long ago disappeared into the Lost Woods.

Hyrule Castle
On his way to the Lost Woods, Link comes across Hyrule Castle Town, which is in a sorry state. Apparently, something has come over Queen Zelda, and this has caused her to raise taxes, tighten defense, outlaw free speech, and declare war on the neighboring nation. Link, being the hero that he is, goes to the castle to talk some sense into Zelda. He sneaks into the castle, which is the first mini-dungeon of the game. The mini-boss is the captain of the Hyrule Guards, the terrible Captain Kaulker. Link beats him up, and he is allowed to see Zelda.

When Link enters the throne room, the mysterious triangular tattoo on his hand lights up, catching the Queen's attention. She attempts to kill Link, but is soundly defeated. After a final sword strike, Zelda vomits up a little black slug, which runs away as quick as a slug can. Zelda explains that she has been under a curse. She thanks Link for saving her, and gives him the Hero's Clothes to acknowledge him as a true hero.

Potion Factory
After a bit of traveling, Link reaches the Kokiri Forest, which is in trouble. All of the Kokiri have had their fairies stolen by a madman. The Great Deku Tree implores Link to infiltrate the madman's subterranean lair and get back te fairies. He says that if Link does this, he will tell him where to find the man who knows the location of the snake.

Link travels deep into the forest until he finds the first dungeon, the Potion Factory, where fairies are being slaughtered for their healing powers. The boss of the dungeon is the head of the factory, the man who stole the fairies, Tingle. Link shoots him down from his balloons with the bow he found in the dungeon, and Tingle falls into an inconveniently placed vat of acid. The fairies are free!

Stalfos Palace
Link returns to the Great Deku Tree with the fairies. The tree notices the mark on his hand and says that he must be the Hero of Time reborn. To help him on his quest, the tree gives him a quiet but helpful fairy named Ivan, who rarely speaks. The last thing the Great Deku Tree tells Link is that the man who knows the location of the snake was turned into a Stalfos in the Lost Woods, and now resides in Stalfos Palace.

The Palace is on the top of a high cliff, the only entrance guarded by a wall of fire. Link must rind a way to fly to the top, but only the Roc's Feather has that power. The next portion of the game is going to the mini-dungeon Roc's Aerie and gathering a feather from a nest. After Link leaves the aerie with the feather, the Roc attacks and takes back the feather. The following battle involves Link chasing the bird back to the aerie, shooting it down while on horseback. If the bird reaches the aerie before Link makes it drop the feather, he has to get it again and fight the battle again.

Now that he has the feather, Link must climb Death Mountain and use the feather to fly to Stalfos Palace (the feather wokrs alot like the Deku Leaf, except wind isn't an issue). At the top of the mountain, Link meets a Goron who runs a closed Bomb Shop. The Goron, named Boomoron, tells Link that a troublesome band of thieves has stolen all of his bombs and every time he tries to make more, they steal them again. Link ,for the time, doesn't care, and flies off the mountain.

The next dungeon is Stalfos Palace, an undead-themed dungeon. The mini-boss is the Gibdo Lord, the item is the Bone Boomerang, which can split in two and hit multiple targets, and the boss is Staltulla, an undead spider that must be hit in the eyes with the boomerang. After this fight, Link finds the man-turned-Stalfos. They fight, but the man is just as strong as a regular Stalfos. Link collects his remains after being told by Ivan that the best way to get the information he needs is to find a great warlock who can revive the man.

Volcanic Shaft
The warlock lives in Kakariko Village, in a secret house in the graveyard. When Link reaches his house, he finds that the man is being tormented by a ReDead. Link slays the ReDead and saves the warlock. As a gift, the warlock plays a song on his ocarina and makes the ReDead's body disappear, except for the mask. He gives the mask to Link along with the ocarina, and tells him that when he wears the mask, he will have the power of a ReDead. Though enemies will still attack Link, he can freeze them with a paralyzing scream, which will unfortunately deplete one-third of his magic meter. The warlock also gives Link the ocarina, and teaches him the Song of Passing. Link asks him to reanimate the Stalfos, but the warlock says it is impossible without the three potion ingredients. The first, Dodongo scale, is hidden in Death Mountain. The second, Shinestone, is in a cave in the Gerudo Desert. The third, Sparkling Ooze, is in the Water Temple at the bottom of Lake Hylia. Link sets off to find the ingredients.

At Death Mountain, Link inquires to the Goron patriarch as to the location of a Dodongo Scale. The patriarch says that a scale can be found in the Volcanic Shaft, but, unfortunately, a rockslide has made this cavern unreachable. This is especially bad because the chief's son was in the shaft when it collapsed, and now he is trapped. In earlier days, bombs could blow up the obstruction, but the only maker of bombs has been robbed.

Link travels to the Thieves' Camp in Hyrule Field. The next mini-dungeon is stealth based. Link must avoid being seen by the thieves, or he will be imprisoned. At the end of the dungeon, Link fights the Bandit Chief and makes away with the bombs. The Bandit Chief admires Link's ability and makes him an honorary thief.

At this point, Link can return the bombs to Boomoron, and he will begin selling them again. However, it is advisable to blow up the rockslide first, to make use of the free bombs.

The next dungeon is the volcanic shaft. The mini-boss is a flaming ghost who can only be defeated with bombs. The item is a Hookshot, and the boss is a fiery lava worm. Link must Hookshot to its back, and then run to its head and drop a bomb in its blowhole before it dives back into the lava.

Desert Cavern
Link travels to the Gerudo Desert to look for the Shinestone. He meets up with a Gerudo Camp and learns that this is impossible, as the cave that holds the Shinestone can only be entered by a hole on top of an island in the middle of a vast river. Unfortunately, the river has dried up and the island is inaccessible. Link goes to Zora's Domain, the river's source, to get to the bottom of the issue.

In Zora's domain, King Zora tells Link that the river is dry because the Water Sage who long played a magical song to make the river run has disappeared on the eve of the River Festival, when the song is played to make the river run another year. Without the magical song, the river ran dry. The King says that the Sage was last seen on the snowy mountain next to Link's hometown.

Link climbs this mountain, only to find a Zora living at the top. The Zora commands him to go away, saying she doesn't feel like playing the song this year. When link refuses to leave, she attacks him with the power of ice. Link defeats her, and she, like Zelda, vomits up a black slug. The slug quickly burrows under the snow and is gone. As a thanks, the Zora teaches Link the Song of Storms, which will refill the river. However, Zoras cannot survive in cold areas, and the only reason she has survived until now is the slug. Before she dies, she gives Link the Zora Armor.

On his return to Zora's Domain, Link plays the Song of Storms and the river runs again, allowing Link to reach the island, where the fourth dungeon is located. The Desert Cavern is a quickand-filled dungeon in the beginning. Later on, however, it becomes deep enough to be flooded by the river, forcing Link to use his new armor. The mini-boss is a water goblin, the item is the Iron Boots, and the boss is a mass of flying insects that can from into one great beast. After the dungeon, Link acquires the Shinestone.

Water Temple
With his Zora Armor and Iron Boots, Link descends into Lake Hylia. He is told by a Zora in the lake that the temple is the very same as the ancient Temple that the Hero of Time went to, but mining underneath the lake has combined it with the Lakebed Temple, so that both temples are now one. To keep trespassers out, the Zoras have locked every single door in the dungeon, and hidden the keys in faraway rooms.

When Link reaches the entryway he finds the young Goron he rescued earlier standing in front of the temple. He tells Link that he went into the temple himself and got the Sparkling Ooze. Link thankfully takes the Ooze and leaves the lake.

Within the Snake
Link goes to the warlock in Kakariko Village with the potion ingredients. The warlock turns the Stalfos back into a human. Ivan asks the human where the snake lurks. Still in a daze, the man says that the snake lives in the Haunted Plains, ands gives Link a key to the giant gate that guards the plains.

Link goes through the gate, which is located at the south side of the Gerudo Desert. Beyond the gate is the Haunted Plains, which are filled with Poes and other ghosts. At the end of the plains is a cave in which the snake lives. when Link approaches it, it opens its mouth wide and swallows him whole.

The inside of the snake serves as the fifth dungeon. The mini-boss is a gelatinous blob. After defeating the blob, Link gains the Hammer. With the hammer, Link journeys into the very stomach of the snake, where the children of Hyrule can be found. As soon as Link enters the room, a parasitic octopus leaps out of the stomach acid. Link defeats the boss by striking all of its tentacles with the hammer. After this, the children are free to sneak into the snake's intestines and get out.

Just before Link can follow them, something calls to him. He turns and sees the black slug that had possessed Zelda and the Zora Sage. The slug tells him that Link has the Triforce of Courage, Zelda has the Triforce of Wisdom, and the slug itself has the Triforce of Power. Then, the slug begins to take a great, terrible form. Just before it takes a recognizable shape, it is shot from behind by an arrow of light. The pieces of the slug shatter, revealing the man that had once been a Stalfos holding a bow. The man grabs Link's hand and leads him out through the snake's mouth.

Outisde it is found that the snake has been tied down with ropes seemingly made of light. Next to it is the warlock, playing a song that is keeping the ropes in existence. The man who led Link out tells him to warp everyone to safety, then teaches him the Song of Soaring on his ocarina. Link plays it, and he, the mysterious man, the warlock and all of the children are transported to Kakariko Graveyard.

The Master Sword
The mysterious man now tells Link his story. Long ago, he saved Hyrule from an evil man named Ganondorf, with the help of an imp named Midna. For this battle he had used the great Master Sword. After Ganondorf's defeat, he placed the Master Sword back in the Sacred Grove. However, many years later, he heard that Ganondorf had been sighted. He traveled into the Lost Woods to find the Master Sword, but he became lost and turned into a Stalfos. He tells Link the story of Ganondorf, the Triforce and the Master Sword. The old Link believes that the mysterious slug-creature found in the snake is Ganondorf, too weak to take a form stronger than a slug, but when he gets the full Triforce, nothing will stop him. TP Link tells the new Link that he must find the Master Sword in the Sacred Grove, as it alone can defeat Ganondorf.

Link journeys into the Lost Woods. They act the same as a larger, more difficult version of the OoT Lost Woods, except that there is a time limit. In the woods a Skull Kid can be found. It serves as a mini-boss. After it is defeated, it tells Link the location of a Great Fairy Fountain. In this fountain, Link is given the Fire Arrows. With these, he can open the doorway to the Forest Temple.

Need I say more about the Forest Temple? It's just like every other Forest Temple, except more difficult because it comes later on. The mini-boss is Mega Baba, a giant Deku Baba. Its stem is burned with Fire Arrows. After its defeat, Link gains the Ice Arrows. He can use these arrows to repel the fire surrounding the Door of Time, and enter the Temple of Time.

The boss in the Temple of Time is an enormous robotic warrior made by the gods to protect the Master Sword. It fights like a very strong Darknut. After it is defeated, it lets Link into the room where the Master Sword lies. Link enters and takes the sword, becoming the true hero.

Yeah, that was three dungeons in a row. Got a problem with that?

Darknut Castle
Upon his return to Kakariko Village, Link is informed that he needs one more thing to combat Ganondorf, the mythical Light Arrows. Unfortunately, they are being heavily guarded in the world's most protected fortress, Darknut Castle. The door to this castle is guarded by two Red Darknuts, which cannot ever be defeated. To enter the castle, Link needs the Darknut Armor. This begins a lengthy trading quest, a description of which can be found below.

Did you read it? I'm not telling the next part until you read it.

Seriously, I'm not telling.

Okay, here it is. The next dungeon is Darknut Castle. Link cannot wear his armor for the entire time, as it is so heavy he will die if he wears it for too long. The Armor is only used when Link needs to sneak past a Red Darknut. The mini-boss is the Darknut Sisters, four female Darknuts who are incredibly agile as well as strong. After they are defeated, Link gains the Light Arrows.

After the Light Arrows are obtained, an alarm goes off. The fourth sister, who was not dead, alerts every other Darknut to Link's presence. The next portion of the dungeon is all about speed. Link must get out of the dungeon before the Red Darknuts catch him. Light Arrows can slow these enemies down.

When Link exits the dungeon, he is surprised to find the entire tribe of bandits waiting for him. These bandits then attack the pursusing Darknuts and give Epona to Link. Link tries to escape, but something happens. The fourth sister rides out from the castle on an enormous armored hound, the Dognut. Link then participates in a horseback boss battle, in the area just beyond the thieves/Darknuts battle. The hound must be struck with Light Arrows to strip its armor. The battle is longer than that, but the full description can be found in the Bosses section. After the dog is defeated, the Darknut Army retreats, running off to the Haunted Plains.

Ice Temple
Link returns to Kakariko, where the Hero of Light is waiting. He congratulates Link, then tells him the full story of Ganondorf in the Child Timeline. He says that the Master Sword's power alone cannot defeat Ganondorf. In all history, only one has had the power to defeat Ganondorf for good, the legendary Hero of Time, who destroyed Ganondorf in an alternate universe. The hero is said to be buried on the tall mountain next to Link's hometown. If Link can gather the remains, the warlock will use the remaining rejuvenation potion to bring the Hero back to life. Once he returns to life, he can be asked how he defeated Ganondorf for good.

Link returns to his mountain village to find that it is being terrorized by the Roc. Link fights it a second time to gain a bottle full of Blue Fire from the crazy old man who trained him. With this shield, Link can melt the Red Ice blocking the entrance to the temple at the top of the nearby snowy mountain (the very same mountain where Link battled the Zora Sage).

The next dungeon is the Ice Temple. Everyone hates an ice level, and this is no exception. The mini-boss is the Big Freezard. The item is the Mirror Shield. At the end of the dungeon, Link comes across a large room. In the center is a coffin. A voice tells Link that to awaken the legendary hero, he must face his true equal. With that, Dark Link appears in the room.

The battle is like the one in OoT, except Dark Link has every item Link has. To defeat him, Link must use his most clever and advanced tactics, as well as the newfound Mirror Shield. Once the shadow is dispelled, Link gains the Hero's Skeleton.

Hero of Time
Following this, Link has his ocarina stolen by the Roc. He must bring the skeleton to Kakariko Graveyard on horseback. this proves a difficult task, as enemies on mounts chase him the whole way. Also, the Roc is constantly following, trying to swipe the Skeleton. When Link gets to Kakariko Graveyard, the enemies flee. The Roc alone continues to attack. Its defeat yields the ocarina.

Link learns from the warlock that the enemies who pursued him have been sacking Hyrule during Link's voyage to the mountain. They have kidnapped Princess Zelda, King Zora, the Gerudo Chief and the Goron Patriarch and brought all these rulers to the Haunted Plains. A final attack by the evil forces is imminent. With no time to lose, the warlock reanimates the Hero of Time.

Long emotional cutscene. The Hero tells his story, and is told of the current events. He has Link warp everyone to Castle Town so that he may address the people. The town is in disarray. The Hero stands in the town square and introduces himself. The people are silent. The Hero tells them not to panic, as that is what Ganondorf wants. He suggests that all the races combine their forces and march on the Haunted Plains. However, this will take true leader, someone who can unite people and command them in battle. Someone like a king.

A voice calls out "My boy! I'm your man!" The beggar who believes himself to be the king rushes into the square. He is given command of the army.

The Time Hero addresses Link and the Light Hero. He says that the three of them must work together to rescue the monarchs from the belly of the snake, while the army distracts Ganon's forces. Link warps the three of them to the Haunted Plains.

Tower of Darkness
The cave where the snake lived is now empty. The snake itself is flying around at the top of the mountain that holds the cave. Behind where the snake once lay are three doors. The Hero of Time teaches Link a special song that allows him to transefer consciousness to himself or the Hero of Light. The three Links enter the three doors and the first multi-player dungeon begins.

The three sections of the dungeon are explored by the three heroes. The song learned earlier can transfer who is playable. Each character has the majority of their items from their respective games, though some are entirely useless (such as the Dominion Rod and the Hover Boots). Switches and puzzles in one section can lead to a chest appearing or a door opening in another, casuing all three Links to be necessary to play as. In the first section, explored by the Hero of Time, the Gerudo Chief can be found and rescued. In the second, explored by the Hero of Light, King Zora is captured and released. In the third can be found the Goron Patriarch. Each ruler is guarded by a mini-boss. The first mini-boss is an Iron Knuckle, the second is a shadowy phantom that plays Dead Man's Volley, and the third, fought on a ledge outside the mountain, is the Roc for the final time. This time, it dies for good. At the end, all three Heroes reach the top of the mountain, where they see what they never expected.

Ganondorf is there, but not in the way they expected. He is chained up by his wrists, hanging from a wooden post of some sort. Underneath him is a pile of sticks. He looks up and sees the heroes, then scowls.

Ganondorf: So you've come to finish me off, have you? I knew you'd return, but I didn't expect your two little friends. Wait a moment, don't I know you? You're that prissy Kokiri that spoiled my plans and got me imprisoned! Well, well, well. You're both here to get your revenge, and you've brought some little newcomer who dresses like you. Aww, how sweet. Well, kill me then. I don't wish to remain.

HoL: What are you talking about?

Ganondorf: You heard I was chained up, and you came to kill me, didn't you? You wanted revenge because I killed Midna.

HoL: Midna didn't die. Yes, we did come to kill you, but you're not supposed to be chained up!

Ganondorf: You're trying to confuse me. I have no time for this. Kill me or let me live. I no longer care.

HoT: Are you saying you didn't kidnap the children, and the rulers of the races?

Ganondorf: They were kidnapped? Really? So it got Zelda, did it?

HoL: What is "it?" Tell us what you know!

Ganondorf: I like seeing you sweat. I think I'll keep you in the dark for a bit longer.

Suddenly, a voice calls out to Link. It is Zelda's voice. She is on the other side of the tower, chained up on a similar post. There is one more of these posts, empty. The three of them form a triangle.

Zelda: Link! Get out of here! It wants you!

Ganondorf: I suppose that is Zelda's voice. I haven't been able to turn my head for a while.

Zelda: It's after the Triforce, Link! That's why it captured me and Ganondorf!

HoL: What is "it?"

Zelda: A demon from another world. A monstrous creature that wants all of Hyrule to be destroyed! No the entire world to die!

Ganondorf: Hmmm, now they know. It's still funny to see their faces.

HoL: What is it, Queen? What could want to destroy the whole world?

At this moment, the Hero of Time suddenly looks up as if he had a revelation.

Zelda: Link! You hold the Triforce of Courage! Get out of here, or it will win!

Ganondorf: No! Stay here! If you go, that will just be more time for me to be alive.

Zelda: Silence! Link, I don't know what it is or why it wants so much destruction, but you need to get out of here!

HoT: I know what it is.

Everyone looks to the Hero of Time. Even Ganondorf seems interested.

HoT: I get it now. A creature that changes shape, that possesses people, that wants everything to die. I know only one thing this could be. A demon I once fought and defeated. It must have survived somehow. Its name is... Majora.

The Fantastic Finale
The Hero of Time explains his past with Majora to all those in the area. After he is done, lightning crackles and a small cloud of smoke drifts down onto the top of the tower. The smoke bears two familiar eyes.

Majora: It's been a long time, O hero...

HoT: Indeed it has. I see you have not changed.

Majora: My ambitions are still the same, yes, but I cannot take corporeal form at the moment. So, I would say something has changed about me, wouldn't you? I'm also free from that irritating mask. I'm also in a different world. A somewhat, drab, world if I do say so. Still, it's full of pesky life.

All the Links pull out their swords.

Majora: Excuse me, I'm seeing triple. Wait, no, there's just three of you. Oh, that's a familiar one!

Majora looks at Link (from this game).

Majora: Now I get it. Mr. Hero didn't want to risk his own sorry hide, so he sent a look-a-like to do the job! I almost fell for it, but now I see the truth. To think that this one would bear the Triforce of Courage!

The heroes look at each other, confused.

Majora: I get it, I get it. You thought I would take this one instead of you. Thought I would try to get the final triangle fron him, when really, you had it. Tried to stop my plans while using a dummy instead of yourself! Clever and deceitful. I've gained more respect for you.

Ivan speaks to Link.

Ivan: Link! It thinks that the Hero of time has the Triforce of Courage, not you!

Majora: I've been waiting centuries for this. Ever since I was banished to this sorry world and heard the legends of the mythical Triforce, I've been looking for the pieces so I could unite the relic and finally rid myself of the irritating noises of other life. I never thought until just recently that they would dwell within people! That's why I possessed Zelda, you see. I thought I could take her piece. Unfortunately, I found out that it didn't work like that. I couldn't take it from her while she lived, and I didn't have the power to kill her while I couldn't take form! I thougth about possessing another to kill her, but then the Triforce piece would go to them and I would be back where I started. The only way I could get it is if someone killed her while I dwelled within her. Fine print of the gods. The only thing I could do was be an awful ruler and hope someone would assasinate her. Finally, when someone did come, I couldn't just let them kill her! It was this one, the puppet I thought held the Triforce of Courage! I figured it would be best if I killed him as Zelda, took the other Triforce, then waited to be assassinated and gain two at once! Too bad I underestimated the kid's power. No matter. I found another way. When I expose all the bearers at once to the sacred flames, the pieces will reform and I will claim them. Mr. Hero, it's time.

Ivan: Link! Zelda is trying to contact you telepathically! She says, "Link...I'm going to transfer my Triforce to you. Get out of here, and we'll be able to foil the demon's plans!"

The snake swoops down from the sky, sprouting a thousand arms as it goes. In one move it grabs the Hero of Time and sticks him on the final stake. Ivan gets another message, this one from the Hero of Time.

Ivan: He says, "Link, get out of here!"

The snake begins to fly around just below the top of the tower. Ivan suggests that Link jump to it, and then he can use the Roc's Feather to escape the Plains when the snake flies in the air again. Link turns to the Hero of Light.

HoL: I'll stay here and keep it at bay. Just go! You're Hyrule's last hope!

Ivan: But...

HoL: I'll get Zelda back. Just go!

Ivan: But...

HoL: Go!

The Hero of Light pushes Link off the tower. He lands on the back of the snake, who begins to fly higher. On the tower, the cloud that is Majora begins to turn golden. With an otherworldly yell, it summons golden flames to leap up from the piles of tinder under each stake. The flames do not burn. Majora yells with joy, when it realizes that something is wrong. Ganondorf's Triforce is glowing, but the other two are nowhere to be seen. It realizes that it has been tricked.

Majora: CURSES! YOU WILL NOT GET AWAY WITH THIS!

The bonds on the HoT, Zelda and Ganondorf break. The three of them, plus HoL: of them get up and face Majora. The heroes pull out their swords. Ganondorf summons a sword from midair. Majora cackles evilly and zooms at Ganondorf. The Gerudo King tries to resist, but is overcome, and possessed. He turns to the heroes and the princess, and raises his sword.

Link is still on the back of the snake, unaware to what is going on below. The serpent climbs higher and higher into the clouds. Ivan yells to take out the Roc's Feather. Link tries to do this, but the feather is suddenly blasted away by magic. The serpent stops in midair, and Ganondorf, his eyes now replaced with the evil eyes of Majora, lands on its back.

More to come....

Enemy Masks
In this game, Link can purchase enemy-themed masks from the Sad Mask Saleswoman in Kakariko Village. Like in Ocarina of time, he can only borrow one at a time.


 * ReDead Mask- lets Link stun all enemies in the room at the expense of one-third his magic power.


 * Like Like Mask- allows Link to swallow an enemy whole, depleting half his magic power


 * Wallmaster Gloves- allows Link to take all enemies in a room and place them in another room at the expense of all magic power.


 * ChuChu Mask- causes Link to turn into a mass of gelatin, which allows him to enter small holes by turning into puddle form


 * Darknut Armor- causes enemies to act friendly to him. It cannot be worn for long because of its weight.


 * Octo Mask- gives Link the ability to shoot rocks underwater at far away foes. It also doubles his swimming speed, making it useful for the race against Zoria.


 * Pols Mask- gives Link the ability to jump high and run twice his regular speed. Useful for racing Gorion.

If you have any ideas for more masks, please put them on the talk page.

 * Bandit Chief- chief of the bandits.


 * Mongrolo- an incredibly obese man living in a small house in Castle Town. He will pay big money for any item Link has, and then will promptly eat it. If it is a bottled item, Link will never get it back. If it is anything else, Link can get it back from the house the next day. He will even eat swords and shields. He will give a Piece of Heart if he is fed Blue Fire.


 * Gibba- a woman in Link's hometown with a pet monkey that gets lost in the game's beginning.


 * Dorsa- the crazy old man who teaches Link how to use a sword.


 * Malor, Maless, Maling and Malot- four shopkeepers who run Malo Marts all over Hyrule. In this game, all general stores are Malo Marts, despite Malo having died one hundred years ago.

 * Shooting Gallery Owner- a man who owns a shooting gallery in Kakariko Village that is supposedly impossible to win, yet is extremely expensive. Rewards from the Shooting Gallery include two Pieces of Heart. He also runs a Horseback Shooting Gallery in the back of his store. winning this will result in another Piece of Heart.


 * Anji- a bizarre man who runs a ranch in Hyrule Field. It is here that Link can compete in a horse race, an obstacle course, a cow-herding game and a Cucco-catching game, which can reward him with a bottle. The other games result in Pieces of Heart.


 * Gorion- a Goron who prides himself on his speed. He will race Link from Goron Village on the top of Death Mountain to Kakriko Village at the base. If Link wins, he will get a Bottle the first time, and a Piece of Heart the second. It is impossible to win by simply running.


 * Zoria- a Zora much like Gorion, who will challenge Link to a swimming race from Zora's Domain to the Gerudo Fortress. He will also give Link a bottle (this game will have six bottles instead of the usual four).


 * Mini-game monkey- a monkey in the Lost Woods who will play a mini-game with Link. The mini-game involves swinging from vines in high trees.

And others.

Bosses

 * Tingle- must be shot down from his balloons with the Bow.


 * Staltulla- has eight eyes that must all be hit at once with the Bone Boomerang.


 * Moldfrya- lava worm with a Hookshottable body. In the first phase, it simply sits in one place and breathes fire. Link must Hookshot to its head and drop a bomb in its blowhole. In the second phase, it dives in and out of the lava. Link must Hookshot to various ledges above the lava pit, and throw a bomb when the worm's head comes close. If he is too late, he will be knocked into the lava. Sometimes the worm will attack with its tail and not its head. In these cases, Link must quickly Hookshot to another ledge.


 * Gohmii- a swarm of large flying beetles that can form into one enormous insect. The super-bug has the ability to summon gale-force winds.


 * Parocto- a giant octopus. The battle arena will be full of holes, one giant one and many small ones. Tentacles will come out of the small holes one at a time and try to sneak up on Link and grab him. There will be ten of them. Once they have all been hit once, Parocto's head will pop out of the larger hole and spray poisonous gases. Once it is done, it will take a breath, allowing Link to hit it with his sword or the hammer. After this, the head will retreat and the tentacles will begin to come out in groups instead of one at a time. After they have each been hit twice, the head will return, spray poison, and allow itself to be hit. After that, all the tentacles will come out at once. After three hits to each, the head will return. After it is hit again by Link, the entire creature will leap out of the floor and crawl at Link. One hammer hit and it will begin to run around wildly. Another hit will make it go faster. One more will kill it.


 * Gohknight- a mechanical knight. Ice Arrows can stun him, and then he can be attacked.


 * Dognut- a horseback battle. The giant armored hound's armor is held on by ropes of darkness. Each rope must be cut with a Light Arrow, and then a Bomb Arrow will remove a piece of armor. With each piece of armor removed, the dog grows faster. The exposed hide must be hit with a fire arrow. Eventually, the dog will be entirely consumed with flames except for its helmet. When this happens, it must be stunned by an Ice Arrow, which will freeze the fire, imprisoning the dog. At this point, Link must Hookshot to its back and kill the Darknut Sister on top. The Dognut's attacks are charges, arrows from the Darknut Sister, and, occasionally, enormous blasts of fire from its mouth. These are heavily damaging, but easy to avoid, allowing Link to attack the weak spot.


 * Dark Link- has all of Link's items and skills. As Link's reflection, any of his arrows that hit the Mirror Shield will bounce back and hurt him. However, he is fast and can easily dodge one of his own arrows. If he ever openly slashes at Link while the Mirror shield is up, a copy of his own arm will come from the shield and slash him back. This same rule applies when he uses his hammer. Unfortunately, he's not that stupid. He will often move quickly and do a Back Slice, which will not bounce back. When Link openly attacks him, he will block it with his own shield. Link must use clever sword tactics to strike him this way. He will use a lot of bombs, bomb arrows, and throws of the Bone Boomerang, as these cannot be shielded. The room will have many ledges around it that Link can climb or Hookshot to to get the jump on Dark Link. It is advised to use unblockable items like bombs and the Bone Boomerang. If Link uses his Hookshot on Dark Link, Dark Link will use it at the same time. Both will be pulled into each other. Which one recovers first and has time to slash at the other is a matter of pure chance, so this is not recommended, even though it can do heavy damage to Dark Link. After the evil shadow has taken enough damage, he will jump to a faraway corner of the room and attempt to shoot a Light Arrow at Link. No matter where Link moves at this point, Dark Link will move so as to have a clear shot at him. Link must hold up the Mirror Shield and reflect the Light Arrow, which will disintegrate Dark Link once and for all.

Trading Quest
Link first goes to the Sad Mask Saleswoman to buy the Darknut Armor. When he gets there, he is informed that the centerpiece of the armor, the Darknut Sword and Shield, is missing, stolen in the night. Without the sword, the Red Darknuts will not let Link pass. Obviously, Link suspects the bandits.

The Bandit Chief, when shown the armor, denies having anything to do with it. He says that if he had it, he would certainly give it to Link, but his people have not stolen it. He does however, have the Darknut Shield, having stolen it from the Traveling Salesman.

Link shows the shield to the Salesman, who denies having stolen it himself. He says that a client sold it to him, but he will not say the client's name unless Link helps him with a few tasks.

The first task is to find a person who will buy an ornate and expensive crown that no one else will buy. Link sells it to "The King" in Castle Town, who exclaims "My boy! This crown is what all true monarchs strive for!"

After this, the Traveling Salesman wants Link to help him convince the Pond Owner to sell his pond to the Icthyologist. To do this, Link must catch the Hylian Loach, which can only be found in the Fishing Pond, and is the source of the Icthyologist's desire. When Link gives the Loach to the Ichthyologist, he finds a way to breed them and sell baby loaches. During the time it takes to breed them, the Ichthyologist gives Link the Invitation, which he must show to all members of the Icthyologist's family, therefore inviting them to the reopening of the soon-to-be-sold pond. After the baby loaches are on the market (which won't happen until the invitation is delivered), the Icthyologist gives Link a baby loach to show to the Pond Owner. After seeing it, the Pond Owner realizes he will go broke, and sells the Pond on the condition that he remain as an employee.

The final task of the Salesman is to deliver a Letter of Challenge to the Postman. This is no easy task, as the Postman is constantly running. Link must catch him while riding Epona. After the letter is delivered, the Postman accepts the Salesman's challenge of a footrace. The Postman wins easily, disgracing the Salesman. The tasks complete, the Salesman tells Link who sold him the Shield. It was the Great Forjono.

Link goes to the swordsmith's shop with the Receipt given to him by the Salesman. Forjono admits he stole the sword, but refuses to return it. He first says that Link must find out what new project Smoth is working on, and then bring that information back to him.

Link goes to Smoth's shop, but is caught while spying. Smoth says that he knows Forjono's plans, and comes up with a strategy to give both Link and himself what they want. He gives Link the Phony Plan, a plan detailing an incredibly inconvenient sword design. Link brings it to the Great Forjono, who gets to work. Link inquires where the sword is, and Forjono laughs and says that he sold it to the Gerudo Chief.

Link brings yet another recipt to the Gerudo tribe. They tell him that they gave the sword to King Zora as a thank you for bringing back the river. Link goes to King Zora, who tells him that the sword was far too heavy for any normal Zora to use, so it was given to Zoron.

Zoron tells Link that he will absolutely not give Link the sword, under any circumstances. The quest ends and the game cannot be finished.

You still here? All right, I'll make more.

Zoron says that he will only help Link if Link helps his father, Humongoron, who is unhappy about constantly being mistaken for a mountain. Link goes to Humongoron, who says that he would be happy if he had something to make himself stand out.

Link visits the Hat Shop in Castle Town, where the Giant Hat is on sale for 3000 rupees. At this point, Link must simply gather this many rupees.

Link gives the Giant Hat to Humongoron, who now stands out. Upon Link's return to Zora's Domain, he is finally given the sword by Zoron.

Phew, it's finally over.

Greatsword Quest
The Darknut Sword is far too heavy for Link to use without having the Darknut Armor on. However, he can upgrade it into something just as powerful, but easy to carry. To do this, he needs to complete another trading quest for Smoth.

To make the sword lighter, Smoth needs to meld it with a special type of stone known for its ability to lighten heavy objects. This stone can be found in Death Mountain.

Link goes to Death Mountain and inquires with the chief, Darboro, about the stone. Darboro says that he cannot give something so valuable away for free. However, he is incredibly itchy and would give the stone to someone who could cure the itch. Before Link goes, Darboro gives him a "useless," inedible rock that was found in the mines. The rock turns out to be a Giant Diamond.

Link delivers the Giant Diamond to Smoth, who will weld it into a Giant Ring. Link gives the ring to Larina, who believes it to be from Humongoron. As a reward, she gives him a beautiful Vase that she made herself. Link gives the vase to the Gardener in Castle Town, who says it is just what he's been looking for. To thank Link, he gives him a Golden Tulip.
