Majora's Mask

Majora's Mask is an evil mask that takes control of the Skull Kid in The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask. It was used in an ancient tribe's hexing rituals and was later sealed away because of its evil magic.

History
Majora's Mask is an accursed item from legend that is said to have been used by an ancient tribe in its hexing rituals. The legend goes on to say that an evil and wicked power comes upon the one who wears the mask. The troubles caused by Majora's Mask were so great that the people of old hid the mask forever, preventing its misuse. The tribe eventually died out, and the true nature of the mask was no longer known.

Story
The Happy Mask Salesman sets out on a quest to find the mask. He goes to great lengths to find the legendary mask and eventually obtains it. As the he continues his travels across the world, Skull Kid, who enjoys playing pranks, knocked out the salesman and began looking at his bag of masks. He eventually found Majora's Mask and began wearing it. His personality changed from a child's to a madman's. The mask eventually consumed him entirely, making him evil.

Majora's Mask forces Skull Kid to manipulate the moon. The moon is taken out of its orbit and is set to crash into Termina. Link manages to save the moon from crashing into the world by calling the Four Giants. At this, the mask abandons Skull Kid and brings Link and Navi into the moon for a battle.

Majora's Mask
The first form is the mask itself, which alights from a place on the wall. The spikes on either side of the mask begin to move, and what appear to be tentacles grow in a similar fashion to hair. After taking a certain amount of damage, it summons the four boss masks to help it in the battle.


 * To defeat it, Link must stun it with some projectile weapon to make it collapse to the ground, allowing him to strike it with his sword. However, it must be a strike to the back to stun it; and after the Mask has taken enough damage, it will shoot beam fire at Link. The beam can be deflected with his Mirror Shield to reflect it back at the mask. Majora's Mask has tentacles in this form and can use a whirling attack.

Majora's Incarnation
The second form, is a tall, humanoid creature with a single eyeball for a head and the mask for its body. The boss rarely attacks; it mostly runs around the room, occasionally pausing to do a random dance move, including a ballerina pose, a moonwalk, and the can-can. While dancing it is vulnerable to attack.


 * To defeat it, Link must shoot it with a Light Arrow or other weapon to stun it, and then strike it with his sword. Majora's Incarnation is very fast and unpredictable, but takes very few hits to defeat.

Majora's Wrath
The final form is a much more menacing version of Majora's Incarnation. It grows an actual head for the battle, its appendages are adorned with muscles, and it vomits two large, tentacle-like weapons that it uses as whips in the fight. This form possesses astounding agility; it is able to jump across the room in one leap and can dash around the perimeter in a matter of seconds. The tentacles make it capable of attacking from a great distance; it also has an unlimited supply of spinning blades in its arsenal.


 * To defeat it, Link must use a projectile weapon to stun it while its paused, then strike it with a Light Arrow or his sword. This process must repeated until it is defeated. Majora's Wrath can inflict very heavy damage and jump from one side of the arena to the other. Because it is slow to attack, it can however, be easily defeated.
