The '''Keaton Mask Soldier''' is the [[guard]] at the gate to the [[Death Mountain Trail]] in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]''.  He is one of three Hyrulean Soldiers assigned to guard [[Kakariko Village]] when [[Link]] ia a child. He will not allow anyone to go to [[Death Mountain]] unless they are given permission from the [[Royal Family|Royal Family of Hyrule]].

==Biography==

Once Link reaches Kakariko Village after meeting [[Princess Zelda|Zelda]], the Keaton Mask Soldier teases Link about how he can not pass through the gate unless given permission by the Royal Family. Once Link gives [[Zelda's Letter]] to the Keaton Mask Soldier, he allows Link to go to the Death Mountain Trail by opening the gate. After this, the Keaton Mask Soldier will become more freindly towards Link leading him to worry about Link's safety on Death Mountain. He will even give Link a discount on a [[Hylian Shield]] at the [[Bazaar]] in [[Castle Town]] making the Shield 50 [[Rupee]]s instead of 80 Rupees.

After giving all of his advice towards Link, the Keaton Mask Soldier ask Link a favor. His [[Boy in the Graveyard|Son]] wants the [[Keaton Mask]] that the [[Happy Mask Shop]] is selling. However, he hs no time to leave his post and go to the Happy Mask Shop. He then asks Link to give him the mask. Once Link returns with the Keaton Mask, the guard will pay 15 Rupees for it. However, if Link refuses to sell the mask to him, the guard will be angered and will close the gate until Link sells it to him, but once Link leaves Kakariko Village or enters and exits a building, the gate will be opened. After buying the Keaton Mask, the guard will wear the mask even though is for his son.

After returning to Kakariko Village seven years later, the guard is no where to be found most likely due to the fall of the Royal Family.
