## History

Masquerade was given life with the soul of a Dreamworld Entertainment guest, John. After waking up, he befriended the other animatronics, many of whom were as active and lively as him by that point.

After the building's collapse, Masquerade was infected with the virus, causing him to vengefully seek out any human that he thought was Sara Covetman. Along with his siblings, Melody and Mimic, he followed the orders of the infected LolliPop. Once Wiatt Nicholson and Star Light entered the Arcadescape, he and his brothers were ordered to swarm and attack Wiatt. After having been cornered by the Triplets in a room in the arcade, Wiatt discovered the virus's kill code and used it to free Masquerade and his siblings from the virus.

The Triplets apologized profusely to Wiatt after being cured, after which they trailed Wiatt throughout the facility. Once the group reached Trampoland, they were ambushed by LolliPop and Rex, both infected by the virus. Once the hostile animatronics cleared out and it was revealed that Wiatt had fallen into Seaventure, the Triplets stayed with Star Light and Ribbon Dancer on that level. Eventually, Masquerade along with the rest of the group saw a transmission from LolliPop and Cheer where they revealed that they had taken Oliver Acrimony hostage and would kill him unless "Sara" gave herself up.

Masquerade and his brothers followed Star Light and Ribbon Dancer through the facility on the way to save Oliver. Along the way they encountered Damien Klein, followed soon by the appearance of a Twimblo. Masquerade was surprised to see the creature, wondering how it could possibly get down to the level they were on before he began playing with it alongside his siblings.

With the new additions to their group, Masquerade and the others rejoined Wiatt, Rex, LolliPop, and Oliver in a massive confrontation against Sara. chaos ensued, after which many of the animatronics, including Masquerade, were left to simply wait for Wiatt and Star Light to return. Using one of Wiatt's cameras, Masquerade recorded the relaxing animatronics and people in the room, commenting happily on the romance and budding relationships he saw.

Following the facility's re-opening, Winnie wiped Masquerade's mind in order to ensure that Dreamworld's reintroduction to the public would go smoothly. Masquerade resumed happily interacting with all the new guests and other animatronics, though his memories of his former life have started slowly returning through dreams.

After Wiatt enters the facility after his shift to rescue Celio he ends up in Seaventure, Masquerade showing up to inform him about Star Light's declining mood and how much he misses him.

Masquerade and his brothers show up in the lobby along with all the other animatronics, arguing whether or not Wiatt should stay or go. Once the lights go out and the doors lock Wiatt flees, The Triplets along with LolliPop chasing him through the Madhouse.
