Masks are a central plot element in The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask. There are 25 masks which play a role in the story of Majora's Mask, 24 of which are obtainable and usable by the player.

Quest Purpose
Each of the masks is used to give Link a kind of ability, some more drastic than others. The Deku, Goron, and Zora masks each change Link's form into one of these Hylian/Terminian species, with the Fierce Deity's Mask being a fourth transformation mask that seemingly enhances his Hylian form, albeit altering his appearance noticeably. The remaining 20 obtainable masks have less significant effects, having a range of abilities. Some are only necessary for sidequests and are not required to complete the game. The 25th plot-related mask is the titular Majora's Mask, which the player cannot obtain or use.

List of Masks
Below is a list of the 24 obtainable masks detailing their abilities and requirements for collection. They are listed in the order they appear on the Mask subscreen, left to right descending, with the Transformation masks last.

Postman's Hat
The Postman's Hat is bestowed upon Link by the Postman. After Link shows him the Priority Mail, he will pull himself together and quickly deliver Kafei's Letter to Madame Aroma. The Postman will meet up with Link outside the Milk Bar and give him the Postman's Hat, telling him that he has decided to flee Clock Town. He can be found distressed about wanting to flee on the Third Day. If Link shows him the Priority Mail, he will rush to deliver Kafei's Letter to Madame Aroma, then meet Link outside the Milk Bar and give him this mask. While wearing this mask, Link can check inside mailboxes. This will always result in finding a Green Rupee, with the exception of the first time, which will yield a Piece of Heart.

All-Night Mask
This mask can be purchased from the Curiosity Shop on the Night of the Final Day, provided Link protected the Old Lady from Sakon on the Night of the First Day. It will cost 500 Rupees. The wearer of this mask is unable to fall asleep. It's only use in-game is to listen to the stories of Anju's Grandmother, which can yield two Pieces of Heart. It is necessary to give the appropriate answers to her questions at the end of the stories (for the Four Giants, the answer is "I dunno").

Blast Mask
The Blast Mask is given to Link by the Old Lady from the Bomb Shop. To get it, he must save her from Sakon's attack. At midnight on the Night of the First Day, the Old Lady will enter town through the north gate. She will be attacked by Sakon and he will steal her bag. If Link attacks him with his sword, Sakon will drop the stolen goods, and the Old Lady will reward Link with the Blast Mask. While wearing the mask, the player can press B to cause an explosion from the mask, in the same fashion as a Bomb. Unless Link is using the Shield, the explosion will damage him.

Stone Mask
To obtain the Stone Mask, Link must travel to Ikana Canyon once he has found the Lens of Truth. There, it can be used to find Shiro, an invisible soldier. He will tell Link his problem and ask for his help to be cured. Link must then obtain a Red Potion and give it to the soldier. In return, he will receive the Stone Mask. While wearing this mask, Link can travel through Termina unnoticed by most enemies. There are a few, however, who can still see him with the mask on.

Great Fairy Mask
The Great Fairy Mask is often the second mask obtained in the game. It is held by the Great Fairy of Magic in North Clock Town. Link must complete the same task he did to receive magic power, that is, return the missing Stray Fairy from either the Laundry Pool (during the day) or East Clock Town (at night). Upon restoring the Great Fairy, Link will be rewarded with the Great Fairy Mask, so that he may restore the other Great Fairies. This mask causes nearby Stray Fairies to fly towards Link while he wears it (unless it is trapped). It should also be noted that the hair will shimmer if a Stray Fairy is in the room.
