| - The Six Medallions are quest items from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. These symbols of power, representing the elements of six of the Seven Sages, are given to the Hero of Time, Link, after he awakens a new Sage by eliminating the boss found in each Dungeon, excluding the Light Medallion, which is given by Rauru when Link is an adult. Princess Zelda, leader of the Sages, does not have a medallion. Rauru says "I Add my power to yours" because Medallions could be used for executing special spells, but it was later removed.
- The medallions are given to Link in the Chamber of Sages within the Temple of Light. The medallions serve no purpose in regular gameplay, and are collectively kept in the Quest Status Subscreens, surrounding an icon of the Triforce, serving as a reference to the number of Sages freed. When Link is about to enter Ganon's Castle, he finds it floating over a pool of lava and impenetrable. However, if he has all the Medallions with him, the Sages will gather their power to create a bridge over the gorge, allowing Link access to the castle.

| - The medallions are given to Link in the Chamber of Sages within the Temple of Light. The medallions serve no purpose in regular gameplay, and are collectively kept in the Quest Status Subscreens, surrounding an icon of the Triforce, serving as a reference to the number of Sages freed. When Link is about to enter Ganon's Castle, he finds it floating over a pool of lava and impenetrable. However, if he has all the Medallions with him, the Sages will gather their power to create a bridge over the gorge, allowing Link access to the castle. However within according to their in-game descriptions, within each Medallion rests the power of the Sage it represents and it is implied by Rauru that each medallion links their spirits to the Hero of Time, adding their might to his own. Thus from a plot standpoint, this may explain how the Sages are able to aid Link, despite them seemingly remaining within Sages' chamber within the Temple of Light. The Medallions' symbols reappear throughout Ocarina of Time, as they are visible in warp points for teleport songs, surrounding the Pedestal of Time, the pedestal where each Sage stands in the Chamber of Sages, as well as in the top of the barrier doors in Ganon's Castle. On the back of each medallion is the ever present Triforce symbol. The Light Medallion is the first medallion; the order for collecting the other five medallions is somewhat personal, due to the fact that dungeons such as the Water Temple can be finished before the Fire Temple, or the Spirit Temple before the Shadow Temple. Also, by entering in a temple and acquiring the main item and, without finishing it, Link can use the equipment to move on in other dungeons. However it should be noted that the Water Medallion is required to access the Shadow Temple and Shadow Medallion (without the use of cheats) as completing the Water Temple causes the cutscene in Kakariko Village leading to Link learning the Nocturne of Shadow from Sheik.

During the development of Ocarina of Time, the Six Medallions were early items for Link to use. Even a few pictures released at Nintendo Power magazine show Link with the Forest Medallion equipped as an item, but he is never seen using it.It is believed that they were replaced by the teleporting songs taught by Sheik Rauru says "I Add my power to yours" because Medallions could be used for executing special spells, but it was later removed.
