| Keaton's characteristics are derived from the mythological Japanese fox creature, [[Wikipedia:Kitsune|kitsune]], and its appearance may also be a reference to [[ssb:Pikachu|Pikachu]], or [[bp:Ninetales (Pokémon)|Ninetales]], both [[bp:Pokémon|Pokémon]] characters. They have yellow fur and three tails with black fur on the tip of each tail; Keatons are said to recognize one another by the sheen of their tails.<ref>{{cite|Hee-hee-ho! Hello, child.

| The [[Keaton Mask]] can be obtained in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'' as part of a trading quest. It is the first mask obtained from the shop in [[Hyrule Castle Town]], and can be sold to the guard at the far end of [[Kakariko Village]] as a gift for his son. Keaton is said to be a popular character.<ref>{{cite|Is that a "Kee...something..." character mask? I heard he's very popular recently? He's my boy's favorite. That "Kee...something..." mask...

| '''Keaton''' is a yellow fox with 3 tails that appears in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]''. To get him to appear, Link needs to obtain and equip the [[Keaton Mask]] and cut some [[Moving Grass]] in [[North Clock Town]], [[Mountain Village]] or along [[Milk Road]].<ref>{{cite|It seems Keaton, the ghost fox, plays tricks in the grass...|[[Gossip Stone]]|MM}}</ref> Keaton will then appear and ask the young hero five questions about things in ''Majora's Mask''.<ref>{{cite|Answer me this...

There are a total of thirty questions that could possibly be asked. If Link does not answer the questions correctly, he can try again, but the Keaton can only be summoned once every three-day period. Choosing to summon the Keaton again and answering the five questions after receiving the Heart Piece will yield a Red [[Rupee]] as a reward. | | {{Main|Keaton's Quiz}} |
| | A single Keaton appears in several locations in {{MM}}, hiding within [[Rustling Grass]] and playing tricks on people.<ref>{{Cite|It seems Keaton, the ghost fox, plays tricks in the grass...|Gossip Stone|MM}}</ref> In order to draw out the Keaton, Link must cut at least one clump of Rustling Grass wear the Keaton Mask a before all of the clumps have been destroyed. Additionally, at least one clump of {{Term|MM3D|Rustling Grass}} must be left remaining in order for the {{Term|MM3D|Keaton}} to show itself. The Keaton will then appear and offer the [[Keaton's Quiz]] minigame, asking the young hero five questions about people and locations in {{MM|-}}.<ref>{{Cite|Answer me this... Pick one of the three choices...|Keaton|MM}}</ref> The Keaton appears in all locations in Termina that contain Rustling Grass, such as [[North Clock Town]], [[Mountain Village]] or along [[Milk Road]], excluding those in the {{Term|MM3D|Lost Woods|link}}. |

| ===''The Minish Cap''=== | | ==Nomenclature== |
| {{Enemy | | Keaton seems to be based on the Japanese word, {{Romanize|狐|{{Wp|Kitsune}}}}. It is possible that the Japanese name, {{Romanize|キータン|Kītan}}, is a combination of the first letter in Kitsune, "Ki" (''き''), and "-tan" (''たん'') a childish suffix often used for mascot characters, as would fit with the Keaton Mask. |

| |
| In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap|The Minish Cap]]'' Keatons appear as enemies. They will charge at [[Link]] and if they hit him they will cause him to lose some of his [[Rupee]]s. The orange ones appear mostly in [[Trilby Highlands]], and the blue ones appear in [[Dark Hyrule Castle]].

| | |
| ==Trivia==
| |
| Enemy Keatons share similar characteristics to [[Tinsuit]]s from ''[[Zelda II: The Adventure of Link|The Adventure of Link]]'': both have a [[Wikipedia:Canidae|canidae]] appearance, are very fast, fairly weak, and steal from Link (be it Rupees or EXP).
| |
| As the keaton mask is in [[ocarina of time]], hyrule must have knowledge or a connection with termina.
