In ''Ocarina of Time'', the Poe Collector lives in the [[Castle Town]] inside his [[Ghost Shop]]. Link first encounters him as an adult, and sees him as a Poe Collector, as the name suggests. He collects poes in a cage that are angry spirits that hates life. After [[Ganon|Ganondorf]] demolished [[Castle Town]], the Poe Collector thought that it was a perfect time to start a shop there. If Link brings him a [[Big Poe]] that is found outside in [[Hyrule Field]], he will put 100 points on his card and grant him with 50 [[Rupee]]s.

The Poe Collector is a character from Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask.

Ocarina of Time

In Ocarina of Time, the Poe Collector operates the Ghost Shop, which was formerly the Guard House, located just next to the broken moat of the ruins of what was once Hyrule Castle Town. He takes delight in the maliciousness of the Big Poes in Hyrule Field, and will give Link 50 Rupees and 100 Points for each Big Poe he gives the Poe Collector. If all 10 Big Poes are retrieved and Link reaches 1,000 points, the Poe Collector will give him an Empty Bottle.

Majora's Mask

In Majora's Mask, Link encounters the Poe Collector occasionally throughout the game. Unlike his Ocarina of Time counterpart, he appears more often in the game, giving Link information about certain things. The first time Link encounters the Poe Collector is on the Road to Ikana sitting atop the hill that leads to Ikana Canyon, where he tells him about the ghosts of Ikana.[2] However, he does not allow Link to enter Ikana Canyon yet,[3] but if he wears the Garo's Mask while speaking to him,[4] he will summon a withered tree near the ledge of the hill, which allows him to enter Ikana Canyon by latching on to it with the Hookshot. He also explains that Ikana Canyon is where regretful spirits without serenity reside. Link can then enter Ikana Canyon and participate in his mini-game.

He also runs a mini-game inside the Spirit House in Ikana Canyon. The objective is to defeat all Poe Sisters to be awarded with a Piece of Heart. Link encounters him again in the Secret Shrine, which is found behind the waterfall in Ikana Canyon. He informs Link that he succeeded to dispatch the spirits in Ikana into serenity and that the creatures in the Secret Shrine have been awaiting him for a long time.[5] After Link defeats all four mini-bosses in the Secret Shrine, he once again encounters the Poe Collector.[6] After speaking to him, he disappears, leaving behind a Treasure Chest containing a Piece of Heart.[7]
