Skull Kid

The legend of Skull Kid
In the Lost Woods of Ocarina of Time, Skull Kid stands atop a cut tree trunk, playing his flute. In Ocarina of Time, it is said that skull kids are people that have ventured into the Lost Woods and become lost. They despise adults and throw stuff at them if they come near, although they love children. They are rather shy and frail but are very mysterious at the same time. While they are called "skull kids", in Ocarina of Time, it is mentioned that they simply "have no face". This is what prompts you to give one particular skull kid the Skull Mask from the Happy Mask Shop.

In Majora's Mask, one particular Skull Kid finds the owner of the Happy Mask Shop. He goes through the owner's belongings. Soon, Skull Kid is possessed by the incredible power of Majora's Mask. His fairy friends, Tatl and Tael, begin to realize that the friend they knew is no longer controlling his own actions. Skull Kid seems to be involved in the moon falling towards Termina. However, when he is freed from the mask, he is just an innocent, wondering if his friends were still there for him.

Skull Kid is also in Twilight Princess, though his role is still unclear.
