 A '''Transformation Mask''' can only be obtained with the passing of an individual of a given race, who has sorrows left in this world.  When the [[Song of Healing]] is played in memory of the being, the soul is healed and what is left behind is a mask corresponding to that being's particular race.  For example, a {{r|Goron}}'s soul would leave behind a "Goron Mask."  While this is the traditional means by which a Transformation Mask is created, it can also be inherited or obtained from someone else who first obtained the mask.  Donning this mask bends and morphs the wearer into that race so long as it is worn, often keeping some aspects of the wearer's own appearance alongside the one who has passed.
-Depending on the mask and the one who wears it, some psychological aspects and personality traits of the original body may rub off on whoever is transformed by the mask while they are transformed.  For example, even if a {{r|Deku Scrub}} is normally both a coward and deathly afraid of water, donning the mask of a brave [[Zora]] warrior likely grants him more courage and relative comfort while submerging himself in water.  More specific traits, such as fondness for specific animals, pet peeves, or biases against certain topics, can also be passed along.  In rare instances, the user's personality might completely change while he is transformed.

 The user's [[PWC]] does not change in gaining or wearing the mask.  Donning the mask causes him to temporarily loses any [[racial perk]]s which are ''innate'' or ''distinct'' to his race.  Simultaneously, he gains any racial perks which are ''innate'' to the new race.  This is reversed when he transforms back to normal.

+* A [[Curse]] of Changed Race, or [[Great Ascension]], can be used to permanently transform into a new race for a lower cost.
