The Masked Singer HCs, Season 5

Note: These are strictly for the masks as if they were their own characters, although some are absolutely inspired by the real masks’ secret identities. Because doing HCs for real people is just kinda rude speculation. Tagging @simply-ash-drawing one more time today. ;3

Russian Dolls --Are we really sure there’s three of them? Like, are we really?

--Entirely possible they can fuse and multiply. But it’s just a theory.

--Absolutely can and will pull the twin/triplet switch prank without notice. Not that it’s easy to actually catch them.

--Regardless, there’s only ever one big doll at a time, and this is the only doll without limbs. Similarly, we’ve only ever seen up to four at a time, but when there are four, the big one is strangely still and silent…

--Basically the cryptid(s?) of the Masked Universe

--who are they

Snail --Would fit seamlessly into the Muppetverse he’s too sweet and pure

--Wears his top hat on his shell after several failed positions on his head

--Until Squiggly Monster finds a hat tiny enough to rest between his eyestalks without falling over. They’re hat buddies now.

--Salt is literally like spices for him. And he can’t handle too much of it at once. Seashell --Came out of her shell through the show. Pun intentional.

--Bonded with Unicorn and Jellyfish over relatively similar on-stage stories.

--You will never catch her tongue-tied. She knows all about she who sells seashells by the seashore, after all. Raccoon --Gremlin’s best dumpster-diving buddy. They like finding things they each think the other would like. And they LOVE getting into new snacks together.

--Also has, can, and will eat ANYTHING

--Screechy boi. Doesn’t care. Robopine --WAS Porcupine, once...

--Actually in his 60s, or the porcupine mask equivalent thereof, unlike his secret identity. Not that most people can tell.

--The only mask in this part of the Masked Universe to repeat a song. Peacock was impressed and a lil nostalgic.

--Humble and kind. Often found helping People in Black and other staffers/laborers to do stuff, just because he wants to. Black Swan --People tend to be drawn to her, including other masks.

--She and Swan are practically sisters.

--Knows that you, YES YOU, are one of a kind, too, and loves encouraging others to embrace what’s unique about them. Grandpa Monster --Rivalry with Piglet’s simmered down to a more friendly and mutual pushing each other to keep improving

--The ultimate Grand Dad. It might just be that he’s Monster’s actual grandfather? The Monster family themselves never really confirm or deny.

--Takes the walker around to make sure he has the element of surprise. Remember how you felt when he first threw it aside and started DANCIN?

--The kind of old man who’s out of cares to give and will speak to your FACE if he thinks he must

--Rather stricken by Black Swan… Chameleon --Can change colors at will but definitely has his favorite schemes

--The bioluminescence is for special occasions

--Frequent freestyling with Frog, Whatchamacallit, and Giraffe

--3rd place not-mammal rapper solidarity with Frog. (he will absolutely be Frog’s best man at the wedding…) Phoenix --Actually goes through cycles of disintegration and rebirth--watch her feathers to see where along the cycle she is.

--Voice ain’t gonna change much even between rebirths, tho

--Enjoys making a grand entrance via that sick fire vortex. This also makes her the only mask (so far) capable of teleportation. It is not subtle. Piglet --Had rough luck with love because he thought he had to be a Casanova. Be yourself!

--Adaptable as heck and a quick learner.

--Only realized Grandpa Monster once aimed to topple him specifically after Grandpa was already eliminated. Whoops. They’re friends now, though! Orca --Filled with spark and determination

--Rebellious streak, like Turtle

--Cinnamon roll. Only thing killer about him is his vocals. Crab --Has loved and lost, and you can hear it in his voice.

--Under the hard shell is a soft soul. Do not be afraid to approach.

--How does he function with BIG MEATY CLAWS? Dunno. But one learns after working with them for a lifetime. Bulldog --Like Rottweiler, there’s just something about chasing a flying ball that he can’t completely control...

--Shiny boi. Literal favorite color is gold, especially in contrast with black.

--Cries if something happens to the dog (or other animal companion) in a story, though he’ll just say it’s dust.

--Sweet tooth :3 Yeti --A lonely creature who both literally and metaphorically came out of his cage during the show

--His alone time allowed him to practice multiple talents including dancing and skating.

--Sheds a winter coat for the first time when things warm up in the Masked Universe, much to his own shock

--Sweet and friendly, just wants to love and be loved Cluedle-Doo --Not a routine performer, but the Masked Universe’s first masked detective

--Gallo, of ¿Quién es la Máscara?? Just an Identical Stranger. How that happened is still a mystery.

--Has every other mystery pretty much on lock, though. A veritable Masked Sherlock.

--Also scary good at schemes. Thankfully he only uses these powers for good, gathering information and the occasional prank. Even if it’s just on the live audience and panel.
