Majora/Majora's Mask
Majora (ムジュラ Mujura?) is the assumed name of the main antagonist of the action-adventure video game The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask developed by Nintendo. It is an evil being that inhabits the eponymous "Majora's Mask", once used once used by a nameless tribe for hexing and torture. The mask is primarily seen being worn over the face of "Skull Kid", the game's secondary antagonist, who is corrupted by Majora's influences and uses the mask's dark magic to wreak havoc across the land of Termina. It is up to the game's protagonist, Link, to stop the entity.
Majora is the assumed name of the main antagonist of The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask. An evil being inhabiting Majora's Mask, it is arguably the The Legend of Zelda series' most depraved and bizarre villain. Despite appearing as an inanimate object, and using the Skull Kid as its puppet, the mask carries obvious sentience and the ability to speak coherently, through its wearer or of its own power. The gender of Majora is disputed, as neither the game nor any supplementary material states it.
The true form of Majora is arguably never seen. During Link's final battle with the spirit, it transforms into three different forms. It is possible that the appearance of Majora's Mask may somehow resemble the true appearance of Majora, if it ever even had one; however, this cannot be confirmed, but it is widely considered to be a likely possibility.
A long time ago, a mysterious tribe used Majora's Mask in its hexing rituals. However, the troubles caused by the mask were so great that the ancient ones, fearing catastrophe, sealed the mask in shadow to prevent its misuse. The tribe has since vanished, but the mask was eventually tracked down and uncovered by the mysterious Happy Mask Salesman, a purported trader and collector of rare and powerful masks.
Upon his travels, the Happy Mask Salesman was eventually robbed by a small forest creature, known as the Skull Kid, and his two fairy companions. The Skull Kid proceeded to search through the man's belongings and found Majora's Mask. The evil power in the mask magnified the Skull Kid's penchant for malice, and soon the Skull Kid's petty practical jokes turned into something much more sinister. Using its power, the Skull Kid sealed away the Four Giants, the guardian deities of Termina, and directed the Moon on a collision course with the land so as to destroy Termina completely.
