This page is still under construction.
Check back later for more updates.

The Legend of Zelda is a videogame series created by Nintendo. Many elements found within Johnisdead and Ben Drowned are based off of The Legend of Zelda. While it's not required for one to have played any Zelda games to understand or participate in Johnisdead, it is recommended that one has a base understanding of the games - The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask specifically. This page will cover the basics needed to understand Johnisdead and Ben Drowned.

This page contains spoilers for all the games listed. If you haven't played peak vidya yet then go fix that.

Overview

The Legend of Zelda is a videogame series created by Nintendo. The games follow a protagonist named Link who is usually tasked with liberating the kingdom of Hyrule from the malicious Ganondorf. In the process, he will rescue the princess of Hyrule, Zelda. One of Ganondorf's main goals is to obtain the Triforce - a sacred item within Hyrule made up of three golden triangles. Each piece of the Triforce represents a different aspect - Power, Courage, and Wisdom. These are associated with Ganondorf, Link, and Zelda respectively. Sometimes the different pieces of the Triforce are imbued in their respective owners, requiring all three to congregate in order for the relic to physically manifest.

Most Zelda games follow a completely different incarnation of Link and Zelda at a different point in Hyrule's history. It is implied that there is some degree of reincarnation taking place between the two characters. The series also sports a fairly long timeline that splits into three different concurrent timelines. Sometimes Link will travel to other lands and face unique enemies separate from Ganondorf.

Games

Below are specific games whose elements are related to Johnisdead.

Majora's Mask

The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask holds the greatest influence over Johnisdead and Ben Drowned compared to any other Zelda game. This game is a sequel to The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and it follows Link entering into a strange parallel version of Hyrule called Termina. Here, Link must face Skull Kid - a small forest creature who's been possessed by the evil Majora's Mask. Majora's Mask originally belonged to the enigmatic Happy Mask Salesman - a strange salesman who initially sets Link on his quest after stepping foot into Termina. Under the influence of Majora's Mask, Skull Kid has caused a variety of problems for the citizens of Termina. Above all else, he's cast a spell over the moon, causing it to slowly descend towards the planet. Link has only three days to defeat Majora's Mask and stop the moon from destroying the planet.

To do this, Link must travel to four different key locations in Termina - the Southern Swamp, the Snowhead mountains, the Great Bay, and Ikana Valley. In each location, Link must defeat a malicious creature and free that area's associated Giant. Once all Four Giants are freed, Link can summon them to stop the moon's descent. Link is accompanied by Tatl - a small fairy guide. Link also has a variety of transformation masks that transform him into a variety of species. These include Dekus, Gorons, and Zoras. Link obtains these transformation masks by soothing the spirits of deceased / dying individuals, transforming their spirits into the masks themselves.

Upon finally stopping the moon's descent, Link enters the mouth of the moon itself, warping him to an idyllic, dream-like field. Here, five Moon Children can be found frolicking around a large tree. Four of the children are wearing masks representative of the four bosses defeated to free the four giants. The final one is wearing Majora's Mask. Speaking with him will initiate the final boss fight against Majora. Defeating Majora will finally free the Skull Kid and end Termina's woes, allowing the land to finally enter into a fourth day.

Songs

Link is also armed with a magical instrument called the Ocarina of Time. By playing specific songs on his Ocarina, Link can achieve a variety of different effects:

JID Connections

The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask contains the most connections with Johnisdead. A large plot point within both Johnisdead and Ben Drowned is a college student named Alex coming across a haunted copy of Majora's Mask. Within Johnisdead, it's implied that evil spirit within this haunted cartridge was influenced by the game itself, leading to many different aspects of the ARG having similar names and properties to those found within Majora's Mask. Examples of this are certain main characters being referred to as "Links", special individuals who have undergone a process known as "Transcendence" being called the Four Giants, and the prominent use of masks.

The complete number of connections between Johnisdead and Ben Drowned and Majora's Mask are too numerous to list. However, it should be noted that the the players of the ARG possess a special ability known as the "Ocarina". This power allows them to submit images and videos of various songs, items, and objects listed in the sections above. Once submitted, the songs and items used will have effects in the ARG similar to what they had in the original game. This power can also be used with items and songs from other Zelda games as well - though to a lesser extent. More information regarding this power can be found here.

Ocarina of Time

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time holds some significance to Johnisdead and Ben Drowned. It is a prequel to The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask and the first 3D Zelda title ever created. Because of this, the two games share many assets. The game follows Link - a young boy who was raised by the Kokiri - a race of children living in the woods who never age into adults. Despite being a young child, Link is thrust out of his home and set on a quest to save Hyrule. On his quest, he learns that he himself is not a Kokiri but instead a Hylian. Accompanying Link is a fairy named Navi.

Link meets Princess Zelda and the two begin conspiring against Ganondorf - a man belonging to the Gerudo race from the desert. Though he is seemingly pledging his loyalty to Hyrule, Link and Zelda both sense a degree of malice and evil within Ganondorf. Link sets off and obtains the three Spiritual Stones - magical jewels that act as keys to open the enigmatic Temple of Time. However, before Link can regroup with Zelda, Ganondorf attacks Hyrule Castle, causing her to flee - though not before entrusting Link with a magical ocarina called the Ocarina of Time. Using this instrument along with the Spiritual Stones, link gains access to the Temple of Time's inner chamber where he finds the Master Sword.

Upon obtaining the Master Sword, Link is placed into a seven years stasis so that he can become old enough to properly wield it. During this time, Ganondorf takes advantage of the newly opened Temple of Time to enter a magical realm known as the Sacred Realm. Here, he gains control of Hyrule, positioning himself as king. Upon waking up seven years later, Link, now an adult, sets off across Hyrule to awaken the Seven Sages and defeat Ganondorf.

When all Seven Sages are awakened, Link gains access to Ganondorf's Castle and confronts him. With the help of the Seven Sages, Link defeats Ganondorf and seals him away. Feeling pity of Link's lost childhood, Zelda proceeds to use the Ocarina of Time to send Link back in time. This action causes a split in the timeline.

  • Link, now a child, returns the Master Sword to the Temple of Time. He then teams up with Zelda and warns Hyrule about Ganondorf, leading to Ganondorf's imprisonment. Zelda then once again gifts Link the Ocarina of Time. Navi also departs for unknown reasons. This results in Link heading off into the Lost Woods to search for her, leading into The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask.
  • Zelda, having just sent Link back in time, is now tasked with rebuilding a Hyrule that was left devastated by Ganondorf. However, over time, Ganondorf eventually manages to break free from his seal. With Link absent from this version of Hyrule, no one arises to stop Ganondorf. The Goddesses of Hyrule eventually flood the land, sealing Ganondorf away underwater. This leads into the events of The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker.

There is also a third timeline that exists that covered what would have happened had Link failed during his final battle with Ganondorf. In this timeline, the Seven Sages work to defeat Ganondorf themselves in an event known as "The Imprisoning War". This leads into The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past.
