Lore

Fierce Deity

Hand the twenty ordinary masks to the Moon Children and the child under the tree gives you the Fierce Deity's Mask. It fires sword beams. It has no shield. Boss rooms only, plus the 3DS fishing holes.

Zelda Wiki and Zelda Central describe the same trade and the same limit. The mask is not a fifth transformation you wear in town. The 3DS additionally allows it in the two fishing holes, without the sword. The beam is described as the strongest attack in the game and as something that shortens Majora's three forms. Exact damage depends on the attack and target; the guide focuses on obtaining and using the mask.

Who the Fierce Deity is remains unstated by Nintendo in the sources I read. The Himekawa manga, one volume, offers an origin for the mask itself: a traveler, a beast, three days of music, and a mask carved from the hide. That chapter is the artist's speculation. Read that story as the separate manga adaptation rather than the game’s confirmed origin.
