You may have stopped the moon from crashing into Termina, but that doesn't mean your adventure is complete. To fully reverse the evil power of Majora's Mask, you have to solve the many problems plaguing the citizens of Termina. This is the only way to add all 20 Happy Masks to your collection, which allows you to earn the fourth and final transformation mask.

Working alone, this task could eat up your social life for years. With a little help from the pros at Nintendo Power Magazine (and a little editing from Hirohiigo Togashi), you'll be hoarding disguises like you own a costume shop. For every mask you earn, you'll unlock one cinema scene in the game's ending sequence. Pick a mask, and let the hunt begin!

Necessary Transformation Masks

Deku Mask



The Deku Mask is the first mask that you [involuntarily] get in the game. You remain in Link's Deku form until you complete the first 3 days. Being in Deku Form will allow you to shoot bubbles, fly for a short period of time with the help of a Deku Flower, and hop for a limited amount of hops on top of water. However, you will be extremely vulnerable to fire and cannot swim in Deku form. The ocarina in this form takes the shape of Deku Horns.


Goron Mask



The Goron Mask is the second transformation mask, and is obtained in Snowhead from Darmani's memorial. In Goron form you will be able to deliver hard punches, curl into a ball and roll around, and pound the ground with shocking force. However, you are unable to swim and are fairly slow in this form (unless you're rolling around). The ocarina in this form takes the shape of Goron Drums.


Zora Mask



The Zora Mask is the third and last necessary transformation mask in the game, and is obtained from the Great Bay. In Zora form you can swim for an unlimited amount of time, walk on the bottom of the water, throw your fins as boomerangs, and create an electric shield around yourself underwater. However, you will be extremely vulnerable to fire and ice. The ocarina in this form takes the shape of a Zora Guitar, made from the bones of a giant fish.
