{{Term/Store|Majora's Mask|Majora's Masks|Series, MM, MM3D, BotW}} is a recurring {{Term|Series|Item|link}}, {{Term|Series|Object|link}}, and {{Term|Series|Boss|link}} in {{TLoZ|Series}}.<ref>{{Cite Book|quote= |book= A&A |publisher= |page= 191 {{Exp Game|MM3D}}}}</ref><ref name="BotW Inventory">{{Cite|{{Big|Majora's Mask}}<br/>An eerie mask passed down from ancient times.

After the {{Plural|MM3D|Guardian Deity|link}} are called, {{Term|MM3D|Majora's Mask (Item)}} abandons {{Term|MM3D|Skull Kid}} and enters the {{Term|MM3D|Moon}} so that it can push it through the {{Plural|MM3D|Guardian Deity}}' blockade and complete its destructive path.<ref>{{Cite|A puppet that can no longer be used is mere garbage. This puppet's role has just ended...|Majora's Mask (Item)|MM}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|I...I shall consume. Consume...Consume everything.|Moon|MM}}</ref> {{Term|MM3D|Link}} then proceeds to follow {{Term|MM3D|Majora's Mask (Item)}} into the {{Term|MM3D|Moon}}.<ref>{{Cite|Well? You're going in, aren't you? ...We can't do anything down here. Let's go!|Tatl|MM}}</ref> Once inside, he finds four {{Term|MM3D|Moon Children|link}} wearing the {{Term|MM3D|Boss|link}} remains and one lonely child under a {{Term|MM3D|Tree|link}} wearing {{Term|MM3D|Majora's Mask (Item)}} itself. If {{Term|MM3D|Link}} gives all his non-transformation {{Plural|MM3D|Mask|link}} to the four children, the child wearing {{Term|MM3D|Majora's Mask (Item)}} will give him the {{Term|MM3D|Fierce Deity's Mask|link}}. He will then take {{Term|MM3D|Link}} to the Final {{Term|MM3D|Boss}} room. It will come in three increasingly powerful forms.

In {{BotW}}, {{Term|BotW|Majora's Mask (Item)}} appears as {{Term|BotW|Armor|link}} in {{TMT}} DLC Pack. Obtaining {{Term|BotW|Majora's Mask (Item)}} is the objective of the {{Term|BotW|Side Quest|link}} "{{Term|BotW|EX Treasure: Ancient Mask|link}}". {{Term|BotW|Majora's Mask (Item)}} is mentioned in {{Term|BotW|Misko's EX Journal|link}} in the {{Term|BotW|Outpost Ruins|link}}, while {{Term|BotW|Majora's Mask (Item)}} itself is hidden in a {{Term|BotW|Treasure Chest|link}} at the {{Term|BotW|Kolomo Garrison Ruins|link}}. After obtaining the {{Term|BotW|Mask}}, {{Term|BotW|Granté|link}} will begin selling it for 50 {{Plural|BotW|Rupee|link}}.{{Note|Prior to the [[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild#Updates|Version 1.3.3 Update]], {{Term|BotW|Granté}} would not sell any {{Term|BotW|Armor}} that is exclusive to the Expansion Pass or {{TMT}} DLC Pack. This meant that {{Term|BotW|Majora's Mask (Item)}} could not be replaced if sold, which was noted in the description of the {{Term|BotW|Item}}.<ref>{{Cite|{{Big|Majora's Mask}}<br/>An eerie mask passed down from ancient times. Wearing it makes it harder for certain enemies to spot you. If sold, this rare find can't be replaced.|Inventory|BotW}}</ref> The description of {{Term|BotW|Majora's Mask (Item)}} was changed in the Version 1.3.3 Update as it could now be replaced.<ref name="BotW Inventory"/>}} The {{Term|BotW|Mask}} only offers 1 defense, but allows {{Term|BotW|Link}} to approach multiple enemies, including {{Plural|BotW|Bokoblin|link}}, {{Plural|BotW|Moblin|link}}, and {{Plural|BotW|Lizalfos|link}} without provoking them to attack.<ref name="BotW Inventory" /> {{Plural|BotW|Lynel|link}} are also affected in this manner, but will attack after a short amount of time. As a result, it basically has the power of {{Term|BotW|Kilton|link}}'s {{Term|BotW|Bokoblin Mask|link}}, {{Term|BotW|Moblin Mask|link}}, {{Term|BotW|Lizalfos Mask|link}}, and {{Term|BotW|Lynel Mask|link}} disguises all roled into one.

Though {{Term|TotK|Majora's Mask (Item)}} does not appear directly in {{TotK|-}}, {{Term|TotK|Link|link}} can obtain a new {{Term|TotK|Paraglider|link}} fabric that resembles {{Term|TotK|Majora's Mask (Item)}} by scanning the {{TLoZ|-}} series Link [[amiibo]]. Like {{Term|BotW|Majora's Mask (Item)}} from {{BotW}}, the eye patterns on the {{Term|TotK|Paraglider}} emit a glow that can be seen in the dark.

*{{TP|-}} concept artwork of {{Term|TPHD|Ganondorf|link}} in {{HH}} bears what appears to be an effigy of {{Term|Series|Majora's Mask (Item)}} on his armor.<ref>[http://zeldawiki.org/File:TP_Ganondorf_Concept.png ''Hyrule Historia'', pg. 177]</ref>

*In the original Japanese text, the {{Term|MM3D|Happy Mask Salesman}} states that the race that used the mask was destroyed.<ref>{{Cite|What power does the mask hold? The race spoken of in the legend was destroyed, so we do not know.|Happy Mask Salesman|MM|[http://forums.legendsalliance.com/topic/14202-translation-of-japanese-game-texts/page-34]}}</ref> He also refers to the ones who sealed the mask away as "our ancestors", suggesting that the ones who sealed the mask away were {{Term|MM3D|Hylian|link}} and a separate party from the ones who used {{Term|MM3D|Majora's Mask (Item)}} in their rituals.<ref>{{Cite|The calamity brought about by Mujura’s Mask was so great that our ancestors who feared this sealed it within the eternal darkness so that it would not be misused.|Happy Mask Salesman|MM|[http://forums.legendsalliance.com/topic/14202-translation-of-japanese-game-texts/page-34]}}</ref>

''Mujura'', the Japanese name for Majora, was created by Takaya Imamura, designer of the {{Term|Series|Mask}} and art director for the original game. He created the word by combining Imamura, his last name, with {{Wp|Jumanji}}.<ref>{{Cite Person|quote= Imamura, who made the design for Majora’s Mask, invented the word by combining characters from the movie title Jumanji and from his name Imamura.
