The Mad Batter was a mysterious being of which very little was known. The Mad Batter had slept for years undisturbed in his home/prison beneath the Dwarven Smithies' home during ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]''. This peace was disturbed when Link fell into his cave and awakened the Mad Batter with a bit of magical dust. The Mad Batter was infuriated and overjoyed all at the same time. Intent on getting his revenge for being set free, he 'cursed' Link by doubling the amount on magic he could use. Content that Link would have to suffer in misery, he promptly thanked Link and vanished. | The Mad Batter was a mysterious being of which very little was known.

| − | + | As fate would have it, Link once more encountered the Mad Batter on [[Koholint Island]] during ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening|Link's Awakening]]''. The strange creature was found three different times - now more than ever intent to remain hidden and cursed. Whenever Link would awaken him, he'd force Link to choose his fate and then allow Link to carry more of a particular item (Arrows, Bombs, or Magic Powder). Content that Link was now 'cursed' to have to carry all that stuff around, the Mad Batter vanished again to get back to his sleeping. | |
