The Happy Mask Salesman is a character who has appeared several times as a jovial seller of masks. But despite his friendly appearances, he has a darker and sinister side. He particularly becomes quite angry whenever things don't go right for him.

Background

Original Appearances

The Happy Mask Salesman first appeared in Ocarina of Time. He ran the Happy Mask shop in Hyrule Castle Town and enlisted Link as a salesman to sell masks for him. After Link had sold enough masks, the Happy Mask Salesman allowed Link to borrow a mask whenever he wanted.

The same salesman (or his Terminan counterpart) appears in Majora's Mask. The Happy Mask Salesman had gone to great lengths to find Majora's Mask, but it was later stolen from him by a mischievous Skull Kid. This led him to pursue Link, whom had been turned into a Deku Scrub by the Skull Kid. They met in the clock tower of Clock Town in Termina.

The Happy Mask Salesman seemed to be aware of the Skull Kid's plans to destroy Termina, as he gave Link three days to find Majora's Mask and recover his stolen Ocarina of Time, as the Happy Mask Salesman said he could use it to restore Link to his normal form. Link returned with the Ocarina, and Happy Mask Salesman taught him the Song of Healing, which turned Link's Deku Scrub form in the Deku Mask. However, he then became angry when he discovered that Link had not yet recovered Majora's Mask. After Link defeated Majora's Mask at the end of the game, the Happy Mask Salesman collected it and went along on his way.

The Moon Children

One mysterious detail of Majora's Mask is the masked children who appear on the moon in the climax of Majora's Mask. Each asks Link to become a mask salesman for them. Whenever Link finds them in hide-and-seek, they have taken on humanoid forms. Familiar red hair peeks out from their masks, suggesting some type of relation to the Happy Mask Salesman.

Other Games

The Happy Mask Salesman also appeared in Oracle of Ages, where he ran a shop on the outskirts of Lynna City. If Link brings him some Tasty Meat to satisfy his hunger, then the salesman will give him a Doggie Mask in exchange.

Trivia

  • His eyes are almost always closed. He only opens them when he gets angry.
