Skull Kids first appeared in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time]]'' as minor characters, with one in particular who befriends Link once he plays Saria's Song to him and rewards Link with a piece of heart. In ''{{iw|zeldawiki|The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask}}'', a Skull kid becomes a central character. Lonely and depressed due to a lack of friends, he is shunned and downtrodden by the people of {{iw|zeldawiki|Termina}} because of his many tricks and pranks. Still, he managed to find companionship in {{iw|zeldawiki|Tatl}} and {{iw|zeldawiki|Tael}}. One day, he manages to steal a mask from the {{iw|zeldawiki|Happy mask salesman}} and put it on. This mask was [[Majora's Mask]], which corrupted his mind and turned him evil. He now wished to destroy all of Termina by striking it with the [[Moon]]. He crosses Link during this time, which sets the events of the game into motion. This Skull Kid is the basis for ''Super Smash Bros. 4'''s Assist Trophy. A Skull Kid also appears as a minor character in ''{{s|zeldawiki|The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess}}'', who plays hide and seek as a form of guidance towards the Master Sword and the Temple of Time and as a miniboss who sends shadow puppets to attack Link.
Skull Kids first appeared in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time]]'' as minor characters, but one returns (specifically, the one who befriends Link once he plays Saria's Song to him) in ''Majora's Mask'' as the main antagonist in the game under the control of [[Majora's Mask]]. This Skull Kid is the basis for ''Super Smash Bros. 4'''s Assist Trophy. A Skull Kid (thought to be the same one as he knows Saria's Song) also appears as a minor character in ''{{s|zeldawiki|The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess}}'' as a miniboss.


The Skull Kid's attack as an Assist Trophy is not based on any known ability of Majora's Mask itself, although Skull Kid has been seen using the power of the mask to curse people for his own amusement. Two of his attacks, however, have a mechanic that makes reference to the {{s|zeldawiki|Stone Tower}} and its [[zeldawiki:Stone Tower Temple|respective temple]], which must be inverted for Link to progress.
