Masks/Bottles - Guide for The Legend Of Zelda: Majora's Mask

-*- TRANSFORMATION MASKS -*-

DEKU MASK
RECEIVED FROM: HAPPY MASK SALESMAN
HOW TO GET IT: After recovering the Ocarina of Time, visit the Happy Mask
salesman to learn the Song of Healing, which will turn you into a human and put
the spirit of the Deku Butler's Son into the Deku Mask.
USE: Transforms you into a deku scrub (see CHARACTERS, MAIN section for
details).

GORON MASK
RECEIVED FROM: SPIRIT OF DARMANI
HOW TO GET IT: After recieving the Lens of Truth from the Goron Village cave,
use it to look at the Spirit of Darmani (above the shadow). Follow Darmani to
the Hot Spring cave, then play the Song of Healing to receive the Goron Mask.
USE: Transforms you into Darmani (see CHARACTERS, MAIN section for details).

ZORA MASK
RECEIVED FROM: MIKAU
HOW TO GET IT: Out in Great Bay floats Mikau, on the verge of death, with the
seagulls about to eat him. Spoil their dinner (or breakfast, or lunch) by
grabbing onto the Zora and pushing him to shore. After singing his last, he
will leave you his guitar, along with his spirit, sealed in the Zora mask.
USE: Transforms you into Mikau (see CHARACTERS, MAIN section for details).

FIERCE DEITY'S MASK
RECEIVED FROM: MAJORA CHILD
HOW TO GET IT: Give away all 20 masks to the children on the moon, then talk to
the child wearing Majora's Mask. Since you have no more masks, he'll give you
the Fierce Deity's Mask.
USE: This frightening mask can only be used in battle against bosses. It will
transform you into a large armored version of Link carrying a bigger sword
which can send out fireballs. You may see this character referred to as Oni
Link, but this isn't in the English version. The word "oni" is the Japanese
word for a demon, but the English version wouldn't sound very good as "Demon
Link," so I'm assuming they didn't name him. I just call him "Fierce Diety
Link" since that's what the mask is called. Some people acall him "FD Link."

-*- NON-TRANSFORMATION MASKS -*-

Remember: Even though many of these masks may seem to be not very useful
*coughcircusleader'smaskcough* and difficult to get *coughcouple'smaskcough*,
you need to get all twenty of them to get the coveted Fierce Diety's Mask. I
don't care if you think it makes the final battle too easy, it's an awesome
mask to have even if you never use it much (plus it just seems kinda silly to
have 23 masks). If you don't think it's worth it to get all 24 masks, then
please do not complain to me about this game being shorter than OoT.

POSTMAN'S HAT
RECEIVED FROM: POSTMAN
HOW TO GET IT: Go through the Kafei side quest. When you get the Express Mail
to Mama from the Curiosity Shop owner, take it to the post office and give it
to the postman. He'll be so happy that he'll deliver it to Kafei's Mama. Talk
to the postman outside the Milk Bar to get the Postman's Hat.
USE: Check the mailbox once to find a Piece of Heart. Use it again to find a
green rupee (trust me, your time would be better spent killing Takkuri if you
want lots of rupees). Ka-ching!

ALL-NIGHT MASK
RECEIVED FROM: CURIOSITY SHOP
HOW TO GET IT: At midnight on the first day, stake out North Clock Town with
your sword ready. Sakon the thief will attack the old lady from the Bomb shop,
so hit him with your sword to make him drop her pack. Now make sure you have
500 rupees (you must have the giant's wallet by finding all 30 skulltulas in
the Great Bay Skulltula House on the first day). After 10 pm on the Final Day,
visit the Curiosity Shop to find the All Night Mask on sale for 500 rupees. Buy
it!
USE: Visit the Old Lady in the Stock Pot Inn and listen to her two stories
while wearing the mask to stay awake the whole time. You'll win a piece of
heart for each story, but only if you answer the questions correctly. For the
first story, the answer is "The Carnival of Time." For the other story, the
answer is "I dunno." Trust me.

BLAST MASK
RECEIVED FROM: OLD LADY FROM BOMB SHOP
HOW TO GET IT: At midnight on the first day, stake out North Clock Town with
your sword ready. Sakon the thief will attack the old lady from the Bomb shop,
so hit him with your sword to make him drop her pack. Once he takes off, the
old lady will reward you with the Blast Mask.
USE: If you're out of Bombs, don this mask and press B to blast yourself. It
hurts, and it has to recharge between uses, but it's worth it if you're out of
Bombs. You can also prevent yourself from getting hurt by raising your shield
as you use it.

STONE MASK
RECEIVED FROM: SHIRO
HOW TO GET IT: In Ikana Valley, across from the entrance to the graveyard,
there is a circle of stones. In the middle sits Shiro, an unknown soldier who
has sat there like a rock for years, but nobody has seen him. Use the Lens of
Truth to find him, then give him a red or blue potion. He'll give you the
very useful Stone Mask.
USE: Basically makes you invisible. Very few enemies will be able to see you,
but you can still see yourself (obviously). Most Gerudo guards (female pirates)
won't notice you, either (there are a couple of guards who can see you). Use
this to get the perfect picture for the fisherman (a good shot is to hop onto
the Bow of a boat and face the guard in the boat, then take a pictograph). I'm
not sure, but this may make you invisible to Sakon, the thief, on day three.
Also, the Stone Mask is the ticket to fast and easy rupees! (uh oh, I'm start-
ing to sound like some kind of spam mail). Put on the Stone Mask and shoot down
Takkuri (the vulture bird near Milk Road). With the Stone Mask on, he won't
steal from you since he can't see you.

GREAT FAIRY'S MASK
RECEIVED FROM: GREAT FAIRY
HOW TO GET IT: Complete the Great Fairy in Clock Town as Link to receive this
mask. 
USE: Wear it to attract the lost fairies in the duneons. Return all 15 of the
lost fairies to the nearby Great Fairy to get a new ability or item....

KEATON'S MASK
RECEIVED FROM: CURIOSITY SHOP OWNER
HOW TO GET IT: Go through the Kafei sequence to enter the back door to the
Curiosity Shop on day two after about 1 pm. The shop owner will give you
Kafei's Keaton Mask and the Express Mail to Mama.
USE: Wear it, then chop up some of the moving shrubs (like in North Clock Town
or the Milk Road). Keaton will appear. If you answer his questions, he'll give
you a prize.

BREMEN MASK
RECEIVED FROM: GURU-GURU
HOW TO GET IT: Visit Guru-Guru at night by the Laundry Pool to listen to his
story. He'll give you the Bremen Mask.
USE: Press AND HOLD the B button to march around playing a marching song on
your Ocarina (where are those drum sounds coming from?). Only logical use: in
the chicken coop on Romani Ranch, march around and get all the chicks to follow
you. Once all of them are in line, they'll grow into chickens. Grog the chicken
keeper will be so happy, he'll give you the Bunny Hood.

BUNNY HOOD
RECEIVED FROM: GROG
HOW TO GET IT: Use the Bremen Mask on the many chicks at Romani Ranch to make
them grow older. The chicken keeper will be so happy, he'll give you the Bunny
Hood.
USE: Wear it as link to run really fast. It also allows you to jump as far as
Mikau can jump (for you Zora dummies, you can jump farthur as Mikau than Link).
Another random use is the postman's 10-second game. While wearing the bunny
hood, you will be able to see the timer the whole time. I actually hit ten
seconds on the nose the first time I used the bunny hood. Maybe this is because
the postman is the running guy from Ocarina of Time, who buys the bunny hood
from you.... Maybe this also explains the mysterious white bunny logo seen on
the Postman's Hat.... What is it with this man and bunnies? Yah!

DON GERO'S MASK
RECEIVED FROM: HUNGRY GORON
HOW TO GET IT: Calm the baby Goron, then light all the torches in the Goron
Shrine to make the chandelier start rotating. Start rolling in the baby's room,
then jump off the ramp to break the pots on the chandelier. The Top Sirloin
Rock is in one of these. Grab it, then take it to the hungry goron in the
Mountain Village. Throw it up to him to receive Don Gero's frog mask.
USE: Show it to all five frogs (after defeating Snowhead), then return to the
pond where the icebergs used to be. The five frogs will be sitting on lily pads
waiting to sing you a song....

MASK OF SCENTS
RECEIVED FROM: DEKU BUTLER
HOW TO GET IT: After rescuing the Deku Princess from Woodfall Temple, enter the
cave to the left of the Deku Palace (to the left while facing the palace).
Follow the Butler through the cave all the way to the end to receive the Mask
of Scents. If you have the Bunny Hood, transform back to your human form and
put on the hood to make it much easier. Make sure you're human once you reach
the fire maze. Touching the flames will scorch your little deku body, sending
you back to the beginning. For the jumping parts, also make sure you use Link,
since he can jump farthur.
USE: Use it in the Woods of Mystery, the Southern Swamp, and the Stock Pot Inn
to find purple mushrooms. Put the shrooms in a bottle and sell them to Kotake.

ROMANI'S MASK
RECEIVED FROM: CREMIA
HOW TO GET IT: Save the ranch from "Them," then wait until the middle of the
night on the Second Day to hitch a ride with Cremia, Romani's older sister. The
wagon has to take a detour through the Gorman Track, so either shoot the Gorman
Brothers with your Bow to save the wagon, or wear the Gorman Mask to prevent
the brothers from attacking. You'll win the mask, and possibly a hug, from
Cremia.
USE: Lets you into the milk bar at night.

CIRCUS LEADER'S MASK
RECEIVED FROM: GORMAN
HOW TO GET IT: Use the Romani Mask to enter the Milk Bar at night. Use your
Ocarina, Deku Pipes, Drums, and Guitar to play the Ballad of the Wind Fish. The
nearby Circus Leader will hear it and give you his sad mask.
USE: Use it on the Gorman Brothers.... They won't attack the Milk Wagon! They
will also be too sad to race you if you wear it in front of them.

KAFEI'S MASK
RECEIVED FROM: MADAME AROMA
HOW TO GET IT: Talk to Madame Aroma in the Boarding Room of the Mayor's Office
on the first day to be hired by Madame Aroma. She asks you to find her son,
Kafei. She'll give you this mask that looks like him.
USE: Use it to ask the townsfolk if they've seen him. This is a very long
sequence that takes up all three days.

COUPLE'S MASK
RECEIVED FROM: KAFEI AND ANJU
HOW TO GET IT: Follow the Anju / Kafei sequence described in the SIDE MISSIONS
section to get it from Anju and Kafei.
USE: Put it on, then use it to end the Mayor's meeting to win a Piece of Heart.

MASK OF TRUTH
RECEIVED FROM: SKULLTULA MAN
HOW TO GET IT: Enter the Woodfall Skulltula house and capture all 30 skulltula
spirits (see SIDE MISSIONS section for details).
USE: Wear this mask to get secrets from the Gossip Stones (the rocks with the
one eye just like the Mask of Truth). You can also read the thoughts of dogs
by picking them up while wearing the mask. Dogs that say "Ruff!" run very fast,
dogs that say "Rrr-ruff!" run kind of fast, and dogs that say "Ho-whine!" won't
run fast. Use this to win the Piece of Heart from the doggy races (bet 80 ru-
pees and get first or second to win).

KAMARO'S MASK
RECEIVED FROM: KAMARO
HOW TO GET IT: Between the hours of 12:00 am (midnight) and 6:00 am, visit
Kamaro, dancing on one of the gigantic mushroom-shaped rocks north-west of
Clock Town in Termina Field (you should be able to hear his music as he
dances). Jump over and learn the dance from him in the form of a mask. Now,
go make it popular!
USE: Press AND HOLD B to dance like Kamaro. Dance in front of the Rosa Twins as
they dance in west clock town every night to teach them how to dance. You'll be
rewarded with a Piece of Heart.

GIBDO'S MASK
RECEIVED FROM: PAMELA'S FATHER
HOW TO GET IT: Play the Song of Storms in the cave up above in Ikana to restore
the river. If Pamela runs inside her house, place a Bomb on her step and run
around the south corner. She'll come out and head to the well, so run inside
her house. Go downstairs and open the cabinet. Quickly play the Song of Healing
for Pamela's dad to heal him. He'll turn back into a human and leave you the
Gibdo Mask.
USE: When you wear this, the Gibdo's will ignore you. You can even talk to
them....

GARO'S MASK
RECEIVED FROM: GORMAN BROTHERS
HOW TO GET IT: Once you get Epona, race the Gorman Brothers at their race track
to win this mask. You must beat both of them in order to win this mask. A good
strategy is to get in front of one or both of them and prevent them from pass-
ing you. This buys you precious seconds. Use carrots slowly, since they regen-
erate faster if you use less of them. Use a few, though, to jump over the
fences that the Gorman Bros. have to go around. It's tough, but possible.
USE: Allows you to enter Ikana Canyon. The Garos will pop out of the ground
in certain places. Beat them to get a hint.

CAPTAIN'S HAT
RECEIVED FROM: GIANT SKELETON
HOW TO GET IT: In the graveyard, play the Sonata of Awakening to wake up the
giant skeleton. Shoot him with a few arrows, then fight him with your sword.
Once you defeat him, run up the trail to talk to him. He'll turn off the fire,
so use your hookshot to reach the chest. Open it to receive the Captain's Hat.
USE: Use it to get useful and funny reactions from the Stalchildren. If you
wear it during the battle against Igos du Ikana, you'll get an even funnier
reaction.

GIANT'S MASK
RECEIVED FROM: EYEGORE
HOW TO GET IT: In Stone Tower Temple, just before fighting Twinmold, beat the
Eyegore to get this mask. To beat Eyegore, run up to him, let him raise his
arms, run away a bit, then shoot him with the hookshot or an arrow when his
eye turns yellow.
USE: Use it only during the battle with Twinmold in the Stone Tower Temple.
Obviously, this mask makes you huge. It also consumes magic power. Make sure
you have some magic-refilling potions and the magic upgrade, or the Chateau
Romani from the Milk Bar.

Bottles

LOCATION: SOUTHERN SWAMP
HOW TO GET IT: Visit Kotake in the Teapot House to get a free bottle filled
with a red potion.

LOCATION: ROMANI RANCH
HOW TO GET IT: Use a Powder Keg to blast open the large rock on the first day.
Talk to Romani to make a promise to protect the ranch from "them." "They"
always come a few days before the festival, then "they" visit the cow barn and
steal the cows. Practice a few times, then wait form "them" to come. Once
"they" arrive, shoot arrows to prevent "them" from reaching the cow barn. The
best ambush spot is on top of the house. There's a laddar behind the house.
From the roof, you can shoot any of "them" that try to approach the barn. If
you run out of arrows, you can take some "left behind" by "them," or you can
break open the crate in front of the house. Once dawn arrives, "they" will
leave. If you're successful, Romani will give you a bottle filled with milk.

LOCATION: GORON RACE TRACK
HOW TO GET IT: After beating Snowhead Temple, visit the Powder Keg shop in
Goron Village to get a test keg. Take it to the Goron Race track (above Goron
Pond) by throwing it up the ramp, then rolling up to it. Carry it up to the
large rock, then BOOM. Win the race to receive a bottle with some gold powder
in it.... Maybe the Zubora the Sword Smith could use this stuff....

LOCATION: BEAVER'S GAME
HOW TO GET IT: In the area with Zora Hall, hike up the river towards the water-
fall. Use the hookshot to pull yourself up to the ledges on the cliffs (shoot
the trees). Make your way over to the cave above the waterfall. Inside lives a
pair of beaver brothers. As Mikau, follow the smaller beaver through all 20
rings. Now, follow the big brother through all 25 rings. If you complete it
both times, they'll give you their very special empty bottle.

LOCATION: MILK BAR
HOW TO GET IT: First, get Romani's mask, then follow the Kafei sequence until
you get the Express Mail to Mama. On the final day, after 6 pm, give the mail
to Madame Aroma in the Milk Bar. She'll give you a bottle full of Chateau
Romani milk.

LOCATION: GRAVEYARD
HOW TO GET IT: At night, 3rd Day, put on the Captain's Hat and talk to the
three stalchildren around the grave and order them to open the grave. Enter the
hole, then talk to Dampé. Lead him around to the dirt piles and tell him to dig
them up. For the two up higher, lead him to the squares on the ground, then run
up to the upper platforms. Lead him to those dirt piles and tell him to dig.
Once all three blue flames have been found, Dampé will run away and a giant Poe
will appear. Wait until it hits your shield, then shoot it with an arrow. After
about five shots, it will die and a treasure chest will appear. Open it to
receive the bottle. This may take a while, so I highly recommend playing the
Inverted Song of Time first. You only have 12 hours of game time to do this,
since it only works on Day 3. Also, to make this MUCH easier, Z-Target Dampé
and slowly walk in the direction you want him to go. As long as you have a tar-
get lock on him, he'll follow you. If you get too far away from him, the lock
will break and he'll be lost.
