Talk:Skull Kid

I think that the Skull Kid from Majora's Mask is the same Skull Kid as the one Link gave the Skull Mask to, in Ocarina of Time. Maybe Skull Kid attacked the Happy Mask Salesman because he wanted one the masks he was carrying and was then drawn to the power of the Majora's Mask. Link of Vey 3/7/08


 * First off, use four tildes ( ~ ) to sign your posts. Yes I think that they are the same too. A lot of people do. But, unfortunately, there is no way to prove this. However, the statements in Majora's Mask made by the Skull Kid strongly suggest that they are one and the same. We may never know for sure, unless one of the developers comes out and says it. 14:25, July 3, 2008 (UTC)


 * I thought that it was pretty cut-and-dry, really. I mean, what more can you want? For him to just straight up say "You taught me Saria's Song :D :D :D"? Many things in the Zelda games are implied and accepted, and this is easily one of the most heavily-implied and impossible to disprove things I've seen yet. 20:08, 3 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Way back when, I took part in a debate on this issue on the Gamewinners.com Zelda forum. Just about everyone there was thoroughly convinced that the Majora's Mask Skull Kid was not the same one in Ocarina of Time. At the time, uh, my debating skills were not up to par with how they are today. The debate dragged on for about two years. The few of us that thought that they were the same Skull Kid were beaten. Not by the other's sides logic, which was lacking, but because of the overwhelming number of people against us. Therefore, my side just fled from the battle, defeated. That debate made our little one here about "Midna Art" look like child's play in comparison. It was truly epic. 20:32, July 3, 2008 (UTC)

What the...? What, were they using logic like "He might not have been talking about Saria's Song" or something equally... not... good (I'm tired and lacking a proper vocabulary)? That's a pretty crazy argument, I wish I could have seen it. But I think that nowadays we pretty much all know that they're one and the same, yeah? 20:40, 3 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Pretty much. Link looking for Navi or not in the beginning of Majora's Mask cropped up a few times in the debate too. The side opposing me had the same view of that as they did for the Skull Kid. Even though the in-game evidence strongly suggested that both of those theories were true, they failed to use their brains and look at the logic. Dumb people. I didn't say much on Navi then because I felt that the Skull Kid being the same was the stronger of the two theories. I don't think that the debate even exists anymore. I don't think that Gamewinners keeps their old forum topics that long. It has been... five years since the debate ended, I think. 20:49, July 3, 2008 (UTC)</sp


 * I've read the manga, and skullkid (or rather stalkid) acts a bit different. He has severe moodswings, more like MM stlkid than Oot stalkid... And it would make sense that navi was the one that he was looking for. After all, if a guilt-filled ball of light flew out the window but all else was well, "Hmm...I'm bored. I think I'll go looking for one of my friends...". Oh god, how could I be so stupid?? It could have been Saria, Kaepora Gaebora, even the cow that Malon put in front of his house...just as likely.--Claire 21:29, 13 December 2008 (UTC)

I'm almost certain he is one of the OoT Skull Kids because at the beginning of the game cutscene, he looks at you and says; "Huh, this guy. Well it shouldn't be a problem." That right there implies that he knows you kinda... I guess.NintenJoe231 03:09, 4 January 2009 (UTC)

Is it possible that the "fairy kid" the Skull Kid was referring to was actually the Termanian counterpart to Link, or even a Termanian Koriri? Granny's story makes it pretty clear that this Skull Kid is from Termina and has probably been there for a long time. Jimbo Jambo 17:17, 8 January 2009 (UTC)


 * True as that is, you've gotta remember that Skull Kid knows how to move between Hyrule and Termina. I mean, you technically START the game in Hyrule before falling into the portal to Termina. So I would say that while there may very well be a Terminan counterpart to Link that we don't know of, it's also still possible that Skull Kid visited the Lost Woods using the Termina / Hyrule portal. 22:33, 8 January 2009 (UTC)


 * I has assumed the power of the mask allowed him to do that, but for all I know the portal had already been there for a long long. Jimbo Jambo 15:32, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

Get lost, become....
I thought the quote was that lost people would become a Stalfos. "You a stalfos, me a stalfos, everybody a stalfos..." that's from memory tho. 02:50, 4 February 2009 (UTC)


 * I remember...actually, I think one of the Gossip Stones in the woods says that people who enter the woods without the guidance of a fairy turn into monsters. So I think the logic is if you don't have a fairy, you'll get lost, and then you'll turn into a monster. I can only imagine how that mushroom potion might have helped Grog avoid becoming a Stalfos - at least, that's what I gather it did, or was doing. Article needs more citations in any case.
