== Charactah Account ==
Mark is known for his various playthroughs (Let's Plays) of games, usually in the horror genre, such as Amnesia: The Dark Descent, Five Nights at Freddy's and Slender, but his main focus is on indie games of varying genres, for the purposes of giving them more attention. He is also known to have played games outside of horror, such as Minecraft (in his popular and long-running series Drunk Minecraft), as well as Happy Wheels (in his series Happy Wheels Highlights) and other projects in which he collaborates with his good friends Bob Muyskens (Muyskerm) and Wade Barnes (LordMinion777). Of the three, Mark is the second eldest/youngest, but he acts as the group's firm leader.
During the course of his channel's run, Mark has released several sketch comedy videos (one of which his trademark alter ego, Wilford Warfstache, was born from), commonly collaborating with fellow sketch comedian Cyndago. He formerly resided in Cincinnati before moving to Los Angeles on March 4, 2014. Since then, he has made numerous visits to his hometown on various occasions, usually in the case of setting up a live streaming event with Bob and Wade. One of these home visits was unexpectedly extended, when, on March 22, 2015, he had to go to the hospital for treatment of an intestinal blockage; he informed his fans via video. After several progress updates, he announced on March 24 that he was finally returning home.

== Trivia ==
* On a live stream on January 22, 2017, Mark stated his favorite color is red, instead of it originally being green.
* As of 2017, Mark is an aspiring musician and singer.
* Mark, as shown in his pole dancing video with siennaspaldingtv, can turn his feet near 180 degrees.
* In one of his videos, Mark said that some of his videos can be found on Pornhub, with a title which describes him as a sexy interracial man.
* Mark has had several memes based around him, one of the most popular was the E meme. The E meme refers to an image of the face of Mark photoshopped onto the head of Lord Farquaad from Shrek with the letter "E" overlaying the image. The meme has had several other variations and templates such as M and C and represents the absurdity of modern memes.
* Mark has stated in a live stream that his middle name is Edward.
* Mark's older brother, named Jason Thomas Fischbach, is the author of the popular webcomic TwoKinds.
* Mark has said that he has worked as a bartender and a carpenter.
* He loves Pentatonix and watches them frequently according to a video he made during his Your Welcome tour.
* Mark has automatonophobia, specifically towards mannequins. He hates them with a passion and often times when he encounters one in a game he usually responds with cutting himself off and going silent, then speaking very negatively towards the mannequin, usually threatening it if it moves. He also shows distaste for animatronics in Five Nights at Freddy's because of their mannequin-esque traits. Coupled with the fact that he knows that they move doesn't help very much.
* Despite his various alcohol-related videos such as Drunk Minecraft or Drunk GTA, he claims he is very sensitive to alcohol due to a gene common among people of Asian ancestry and does not generally drink to excess. When doing videos such as this, he takes medication to avoid the reaction.
** This led to him having a mini-stroke caused by his heart not being able to pump blood to his brain properly after drinking alcohol while visiting his family in Cincinnati. In the hospital he was taken, he was told that his heart was fine, but he couldn't drink any more alcohol, a fact that Mark is fine with. This, however, means that Drunk Minecraft is officially over. This was explained in Reading Your Comments #4.
* He is a big fan of "Whose Line Is It Anyway?".
* In his vlog, "Moving to LA!!", he said he had plans to move to LA in a few months so he will be able to be closer to "the heart of YouTube" and be able to collaborate with fellow YouTubers more often.
* He is addicted to Cookie Clicker, and in his vlog "Moving to LA!!," he said he has reset twice. By contrast, he didn't play Flappy Bird, since he knew he was going to get addicted to the app. The only other version of Flappy Bird he has played is FlapBound, an EarthBound-styled game.
* For whatever reason, no matter how many times he tries, Mark simply couldn't beat the game Vanish. When he did finally beat it, he had made possibly one the most excited/happy reactions on the Internet to beating a game.
* Some of Mark's diction includes:
** disposition
** ergo
** morbid
** room (pronounced as ruhm)
** coupon (pronounced as koo-pin)
** human (pronounced as hoo-man)
** Bowser (pronounced as Boe-ser)
* Mark has been in some of Bart Baker's parodies like his Lips are Moving PARODY, when appears at the end when Meghan delivers the presents, and Wiggle PARODY, in which he is one of the Wiggles trying to stop Jason's song.
* Mark has ADHD, as often stated in live streams.
* Mark was ranked third in WatchMojo's Top Ten Let's play YouTube Channels.
* On several occasions, he has stated that his favorite game is Earthbound. Despite this, he has never done a let's play of the game.
* Mark apparently almost had Doom as a surname.
* In Part 1 of Dream Daddy: A Dad Dating Simulator, Mark implies that his favorite musical artist is Ed Sheeran.
* Mark had a love for Cheese-Its, as stated in early live streams.
** A picture of Mark with a box of Cheese-Its on his head was featured on the Cheese-Its Facebook page.
** In a Prop Hunt video, Mark said he got sick of Cheese-Its after they sent him 10 boxes of Cheese-Its.
* In later live streams, Mark has said that his favorite snack is Takis.
** How Mark eats the Takis is he sucks the powder off the chip and then spits the chip out. He has desperately tried to recreate the Takis powder, his favorite part, but has had no luck.
* After his first channel was shut down in 2012, a late-night conversation on a balcony with Wade convinced him to make a new channel.
* Mark said in a Reading Your Comments video that his first subscriber was a friend named Michelle.
* Mark's favorite things to watch on YouTube are YouTube Poops and MLG Compilation Parodies.
** His favorite YouTube Poop is a Dragonball Z edit from the early days of YTP.
* Mark is a big fan of the dystopian Sci-Fi universe Warhammer 40k. This is confirmed from the fact that he has partook in a couple of podcasts on channels that mainly focus on producing lore videos concerning 40k where he clearly expressed his love and fascination of it.
** He also dedicates a lot of his free time on reading 40k books/novels, especially when traveling which he often does. In total he has confirmed to have read over 50 novels, a feat which not even some loremasters (admittedly self-proclaimed) could hope to match.
* Mark was born at 5:36 A.M. on June 28, 1989.
* Mark reached 24 million subscribers on his 30th birthday.
* He is currently dating Amy Nelson (born: May 21, 1994 [age 28]), known online as Peebles.
* Mark once broke a man's rib with one punch.
* On September 3, 2020 Markiplier received his first ever channel strike for Violent and Graphic content after in Try Not to Laugh #2, showed a staged video of a Russian man being mock-jumped by Spongebob, Scrat from Ice Age, Mickey Mouse and a purple bunny. This was in response to a tweet Mark posted where he demanded he be given a strike for showing the video in question as it had been removed for being deemed Violent and Graphic which in turn was fueled by Cr1tikal's AnswerUsYouTube hashtag.
* Mark has two dogs named Chica and Henry.
** For the longest time, People have speculated that Mark named Chica after the animatronic from Five Nights At Freddy's. However, Mark actually named Chica after he uses the name as a placeholder but kept the name after seeing how well she responded to it.
*** Chica was originally named Sephora by her previous caretakers at the shelter, Mark decided to rename his dog to something more appropriate, as he felt that a brand name didn't suit her. He was advised to give her a name that ended in the same vowel as her last one.
* Mark has Thalassophobia, the fear of the ocean.
* There is a running joke in the fandom that Mark should acquire a sponsorship from Del Monte Foods.
* Mark coincidentally ended his drunk minecraft series at episode 69.
