In Battle for Dream Island, Marker was one of the 30 recommended characters that had a chance to join the show in "The Reveal". The votes for the debut were revealed in "Reveal Novum" and he only got 9 votes which was not enough to join, placing him 12th to join the season.
In Battle for Dream Island Again, Marker had the chance to join at the start of the season but he only received 109 votes which wasn't enough, placing 41st to join the season and so he was sent to the Tiny Loser Chamber.

In Battle for Dream Island: The Power of Two, Marker competed on Death P.A.C.T. Again until the team swap in "What's Up Bell's String?" where he was instead put on Death P.A.C.T. Yet Again by One.

Personality[]
BFDI & BFDIA[]
Marker appeared to have more of a tough guy, bully like personality, similar to those of Blocky, Eraser, or Snowball. He would show off tattoos in "The Reveal," and call Cake “wide” when he blocked the menu for dinner in "Well, Look Who It Is!".
BFB[]
Marker is a humorous and cheerful character who likes playing weird games such as toss the dirt and eat the dirt (Stapy would refuse to play Eat the Dirt with him). He doesn't seem to be very intelligent, as he didn't know how to play rock paper scissors until Foldy taught him in "Today's Very Special Episode". While not very knowledgeable, Marker has shown to be a level-headed, rational thinker and problem solver on multiple occasions, such as when he deduced that Four would be satisfied with fake emeralds in "Don't Dig Straight Down".
TPOT[]
Marker can also be a bit of a devious trickster sometimes, as seen in "You Know Those Buttons Don't Do Anything, Right?" when he presses the "up" button and keeps running up to get in The Strongest Team on Earth's way. He has been shown to get mad, as shown when he partakes in attacking Two at the end of TPOT 1 for they did not explain the rules. He is shown to be extremely loyal to his team and is determined to help them out in anyway possible, as shown in "Gardening Zero" where, even after he's set on fire, he crawls his way towards his bracelet to save Ice Cube to properly preserve his team's mantra of preventing death.
Perhaps due to not being very knowledgeable, Marker's solutions can often have glaring issues, such as in "Fishes and Dishes", when he neglected to consider that he and his teammates could not hold their breath forever because he was instead concerned with how they would communicate, as well as in "Outbreak at Stake", when his solution for saving Tree was to attempt to dig him up and move him by hand. He also attempts to hold Tree in "What's Up Bell's String?", not knowing Tree is significantly heavier than him, leading to him (and Fanny) getting crushed by his corpse.
Official Character Guide biography[]
Marker is a purple washable marker. He likes to write messages on his arms such as "IMMUNITY GOES TO ME!"
Marker is good-natured and cheerful. He also loves to play games! His favorite is Toss the Dirt, but he's willing to play plenty of other games with his friends Foldy and Stapy. He's not so good at Rock-Paper-Scissors, though, because he keeps getting his fingers twisted into house-shapes. And 4-shapes. And hecatonicosahedroid-shapes.
Did You Know?: Another thing Marker likes to write on his arms is "GAMER."
Abilities[]
- Malleability: Marker can make shapes from his hands that are normally impossible, such as a house, Four, and a hecatonicosahedroid. However, according to the Character Guide, this was not on purpose.

Battle for Dream Island[]
In "A Leg Up in the Race", there are two Markers: a purple marker recommended by AlphaZaver and an orange marker recommended by alexlion0511. Both of them have patterns including curly lines on their bodies. Both were seen running around along with some other recommended characters after Firey set them on fire.
In "Half a Loaf Is Better Than None", a Marker runs into a vat of hydrochloric acid.
In "Vomitaco", Marker appears as a background character.
In "The Reveal", Marker reveals his tattoo in his audition to join the game. The tattoo read "Immunity goes to ME!". However, Marker didn't make it into the game, as he only got 9 votes in "Reveal Novum", along with Taco and Dora, and was sent flying into the Locker of Losers.
In "The Glistening", Marker appeared orange. Marker was also recommended by TheRyanExperiment and was one of the RC's to vote for Ice Cube.
In "Return of the Hang Glider", Marker variants watch the final Cake at Stake.
Battle for Dream Island Again[]
In "Yeah, Who? I Wanna Know", Marker only received 109 votes and placed 41st, which wasn't enough to join the game and he was flung to the LOL once again.
In "Well, Look Who It Is!", everyone turns to look at the menu on TV's screen to see what's for dinner, but Cake blocks the view, much to Marker's annoyance. He comments that he doesn't remember Cake being so wide, and Cake protests that he's not wide. Later, Dora's stomach grumbles, and she complains that she's really hungry. Marker points out that there's so much bread to eat and asks why she can't just eat that. Pie informs him that Dora is allergic to all non-island foods.
In "PointyPointyPointy ♫" Marker is shown in the LOL. However, he does not have lines.
IDFB[]
In "Welcome Back", Marker is given a chance to join the game, along with the other characters in the TLC. Although the season is currently on hiatus, he ended up getting 110 votes, placing 23rd (to see spoiler texts, hover over it or highlight it with your cursor).
Battle for BFDI[]
In "Getting Teardrop to Talk", Lightning asks Marker (along with Stapy) if they want to be friends. Marker declines and then asks Stapy if he wants to play toss the dirt with him. They both start digging up dirt. During team picking, Marker follows Stapy and joins Free Food. During the challenge, Bell is concerned about their chances of winning when Foldy dies, stating no one else could get up to the basket. Marker then tells Bell to turn around to an angry Puffball.
In "Lick Your Way to Freedom", Marker yells at Four demanding Foldy be recovered. Later, Marker and Stapy "punish" Lollipop to death due to her not being Foldy.
In "Why Would You Do This on a Swingset", Marker asks Puffball if she wanted to play Toss the Dirt with him. Puffball agrees after calling the game "dirty". This, however, does not happen as Fries tells Puffball to do the challenge instead.
In "Today's Very Special Episode", Marker asks to play rock paper scissors with Foldy and Stapy. He says he doesn't know how to play, but Foldy teaches him. He's told that whoever farts the most gas wins. He doesn't think that's how it works, but Stapy gets him to play anyway. Marker points his finger, which is an illegal move. He then plays a house, then a hecatonicosahedroid. He then plays 4 which Foldy and Stapy freak out about. The 4 grows out of Marker's hand and turns into Four. In the challenge, Marker presents the year's hottest look, which caused Four to shoot out some hearts at his team. They get first place.
In "Fortunate Ben", Marker gets trapped inside his team's paper plane by Stapy which causes them to fall out of the sky. As they fall, Marker tells his teammates that they have to slow their plane down. His team manages to win thanks to Stapy using his staples to break the landscape.
In "Four Goes Too Far", Marker (along with the rest of Free Food) looks away from Pen when he has the Twinkle of Contagion. Pen nearly managed to get Marker to turn around when he says he has some very tossable dirt, but Fries stops him. Marker was avoiding Pen at the start, but got tricked into looking at him when started running the other way. He loses the twinkle when looks at him from space.
In "The Liar Ball You Don't Want", Marker is in the group of characters who greet Loser at the beginning. when Lightning zooms in on Donut too far with Camera, Marker believes Donut is a vampire. Lightning zooms out and can see him, but Marker says he still has evidence.
In "Questions Answered", Marker can be seen moving from the moon to earth. His team loses the challenge due to Stapy and Puffball's cheating.
In "This Episode Is About Basketball", Marker asks to play "eat the dirt" with Stapy, which Stapy declines. Coiny then offers Marker some dirt to eat, starting the intro. At the start of Cake at Stake, he is seen with Coiny's dirt fully eaten. When X gets "promoted" to host, Marker, along with the other alive members of Free Food affirm with his regular cake choice. During the contest, Marker wins for his team when Yellow Face tells him to play toss the balls, which turns into toss the dirt once the balls are in their team Basket. Fries tells Marker that he can stop digging.
In "Enter the Exit", Marker played the number four claiming that he knew how to bring Four back. However, this did not work (since Four was dead). Firey Jr. noticed this and called Marker an idiot after he had no proof that this had worked "last time", due to Stapy and Foldy being absent.
In "What Do You Think of Roleplay?", Marker was seen smiling at Foldy with Yellow Face. Ruby then came and unfolded her, shocking Marker.
In "Return of the Rocket Ship", after Yellow Face started to advertise the Fork Attractant, Marker was intrigued, along with Bell and Lollipop, stating that he wished nothing more than to watch it.
In "Don't Dig Straight Down", Marker's only role is explaining to Fries (while using his body to draw a simple diagram) that Four once said "You don't need frills to make a feast for the eyes," encouraging Fries to give fake emeralds to Four.
In "The Four is Lava", Marker is recovered, as he died offscreen between the events of the previous episode.
In "The Escape from Four", Marker is first seen walking with everyone else to watch Four struggle at sucking up Spongy. Marker can also be seen helping with pulling the eliminated contestants out of Four. He later switches to Two's show, TPOT, after seeing them turn the sun into a spiky ball so that they could hit Four with it.
Battle for BFB[]
In "X Marks the Spot", Marker is in the crowd of characters who gasp when X is snatched away by the Four-Colored Team.
Battle for Dream Island: The Power of Two[]
In "You Know Those Buttons Don't Do Anything, Right?", Marker is seen asking about what's wrong with prime numbers. He later tries joining Foldy's team, but is flung away by Bell. He lands next to Lightning and teams up with him, with Lightning being bothered with how he now wants to be friends after rejecting his offer in BFB 1. They both join Death P.A.C.T. Again.
During the challenge, he informs the team they can't use the elevator after it breaks. He also suggests using Fanny to propel themselves onto the building, but she's not strong enough for that. Remote gets an idea and uses him to visualize her plan. When Pie says that she's vandalizing the wall, Marker says she isn't and that his ink is washable. As Remote carries her team up the stairs, Marker gets dropped, and he presses a button on the elevator before running back up. This causes the elevator with The Strongest Team on Earth. to stop at that floor, but they still beat Death P.A.C.T. Again, meaning Marker and the rest of the team are up for elimination. He stomps on Two when the contestants start attacking them.
In "The Worst Day of Black Hole's Life", Marker receives a paper clip from Robot Flower, which he can be seen playing with as his team tries to get a battery. During Cake at Stake, he is in the bottom two with Pie, and is the last one safe, receiving 6,095 votes. He goes off to play video games while Two begins the intro sequence. During the challenge, when Black Hole asks how he can help, Marker says "You suck, don't you?", which Black Hole takes offense to. Fanny clarifies that he meant that he could use his suction ability to help. This backfires when Black Hole accidentally sucks up all of Death P.A.C.T. Again's blocks. Marker agrees with Tree's idea to steal other team's blocks, and he and Fanny take Rocky from The S! when they see him vomit blocks. Marker panics when he sees Remote get killed in a puddle of battery acid, and leaves Rocky behind at the Recovery Center after he kills Remote by vomiting acid onto her. Marker and Tree then stay behind to build their team's stack.
When Teardrop destroys one of their blocks, Marker attempts to use his paper clip to keep the stack from collapsing. This fails, and the paper clip ends up getting launched into the back of Robot Flower's head. Marker suggests targeting Teardrop as an act of revenge, leaving Tree as the only member to rebuild their stack. Teardrop starts firing at his team, killing Fanny first, forcing the rest to take cover behind a fence. Lightning saves Marker from Teardrop by pushing him down, and Marker avenges Lightning's death by wrestling the laser gun from her and taking it by biting her arm. Teardrop then fires a laser from her finger, knocking Marker over, allowing her to take back the laser gun and finish him off. Tree recovers Marker before the challenge ends, and their team places 4th overall, with five blocks stacked.
In "Getting Puffball To Think About Rollercoasters", Marker agrees his team should take the backseat for the challenge to focus on preventing death. In the challenge, Marker and his team follows Are You Okay after hearing the words hammers and factories to prevent any possible death. When Eraser calls Death P.A.C.T. Again cool, Marker says that he always knew he was cool.
Marker grabs a random sheet lying on the ground for the landing pad they make for in case someone falls off Are You Okay's rollercoaster. Marker can be seen later building the structure of the landing pad. When the team sees Are You Okay's dangerous roller coaster, Black Hole says that they made the right choice preventing death, with Marker replying that he knew it. Marker's team ends up getting 1st place, with Two rating theirs a 10/10, treating it as a trampoline.
During the rating, Eraser chases Teardrop with a Zap Ray while accidentally killing numerous people, which disappoints Marker as they weren't able to prevent it. When Two announces two teams are up for elimination, Marker thinks it's because they're "Two". In the stinger, when Eggy rejects the cheesecake covered in glass shards used for Cake at Stake, Marker volunteers to eat it for her. The episode ends as Marker screams in pain.
In "Gardening Zero", Marker's team is sent to the jungle to protect their Funny Plant. When Lightning accidentally electrocutes it, the team agrees that they'd be better off without him and Marker pulls off his bracelet to send him away. Later, Puffball shows up with Lightning’s bracelet, intent on killing Death P.A.C.T. Again’s plant. Marker's team took precautions and built a castle around the plant meant to thwart all dangers to it. However, Puffball simply flies over the castle walls, gaining access to plant. Puffball is then reminded that her team would lose, even if she killed another team’s plant and she leaves. She arrives back with Ice Cube and puts Marker's team in a tough position of having to choose if they should kill their plant and lose or allow the plant to slowly absorb Ice Cube until she dies. After all attempts at saving Ice Cube and the plant fail, the team decides they should save Ice Cube. Marker gets the idea to grab Two's scissors to snip the plant and removes his bracelet to retrieve them. After he grabs the scissors, a burning Grassy suddenly appears out of nowhere, and Marker runs right through him, setting himself on fire. He manages to crawl his way back to the bracelet and gets the scissors to his team. Tree snips the plant, saving Ice Cube, while also putting their team up for elimination. Marker's burning body then proceeds to set the entire jungle on fire.
In "Fishes and Dishes", Marker is first shown dancing next to a Funny Plant when Yellow Face is doing his advertisement. During Cake at Stake, Marker is the first one safe on his team with 10,484 votes. For the challenge, Marker says that they can just hold their breaths, walk into the canal, and look for the plates. When asked how they'll communicate, Marker says that he took a Yoyle Dance class that allows one to communicate through dance. In the Goiky Canal, Marker, Tree, and Fanny search for their plates while putting their Yoyle dancing lessons to use. Fanny ends up dying due to losing their breath after spotting the dead bodies of the FreeSmarters. Marker suggests that he and Tree stay closer to the surface and continue holding their breath. Later, Marker and Tree spot Pen and Eraser with plates. They snatch the plates from them and then kick them down into the depths of the Goiky Canal. They aren't able to reach the surface due to the water being frozen. Lightning melts the ice by zapping it and gives the plate they found to Two, making them safe.
In "The Great Goikian Bake-Off", Marker is first seen with his team, with Black Hole saying that they should make a simple meal for Two. Marker, and the rest of his team, runs to an abandoned Gelatin's Steakhouse restaurant. While at the restaurant, Lightning accidentally burns Marker with the stove, leading Black Hole to suck up the fire, to Lightning's annoyance. Lightning then throws a dead fish to Marker, but he's sad to find out that it's dead, saying that they can't use it. Black Hole states that they can still use it because it's already dead. Marker says that the fish is long gone and says that they can honor its memory by making it a fish roll. Marker, and his team finish the fish roll, but he is still sad that the fish is dead. Black Hole and Lightning say that they can bring it back to life. The team runs to Golf Ball's Underground Factory. Tree accidently trips on a chocolate ball, leading Marker to ask if Tree is okay. Tree then finds a time reversal ray and uses it on Marker. Marker, after his transformation, is back to when he wasn't burned. Marker and his team use the time reversal ray to recover the dead fish. The team then wastes time dancing, leading Fanny to get upset and to say that they should show the fish roll to Two. Marker gets bitten by the fish, to his annoyance. The team runs to Two, ready to show Two the fish roll. Marker then presents the team's food. Two realizes that the fish is alive, and they got eaten multiple times. Two gives the team a 2/10, to Marker's surprise, and leading the team to be up for elimination. In the stinger, Marker gets mutilated by Four after attempting to steal their food.
In "The Seven Wonders of Goiky", Marker is the second contestant safe on his team and gets to jump into the Yoyle pit. Marker is then zapped by Lightning when he starts to rampage over his elimination. For the challenge, Marker's team is assigned with fixing the World's Largest Oven. As soon as they arrive there, Marker says that they need to smash it because of how deadly it is. Fanny stops her teammates from doing this however because it would just cost them the challenge, leading her to say that she hates the Pact, to everyone's shock. Black Hole and Fanny start to argue, so Marker tries to lighten the mood by telling Black Hole that Fanny loves the pact, which she immediately denies. Fanny attempts to change things up by causing death and gets Tree killed, along with Pillow and Black Hole. Later, as Fanny and Black Hole continue to fight, Just Not approaches them and offers to trade them a glass panel. They trade Tree's dead body for it and have Two install the panel into the oven, making Death P.A.C.T. Again the first team safe. Marker realizes that they only won the challenge because they caused a death, which Black Hole has a hard time accepting.
In "Balancing P.A.C.T.", Marker Tries recovering Tree using his 'special touch', but it doesn't work after many tries. During the challenge, he tells Black Hole and Fanny to stop fighting and that they're both right. Shortly after, he compliments Donut after he sees Tree's condition and says that it makes losing his arms look pretty good. Later, Black Hole asks Death P.A.C.T Again to help Tree as Puffball and Golf Ball are hurting him. Marker dives into the water and swims to Tree. Near the end, Are You Okay loses and Two instructs the viewer to vote before Marker interrupts them and clarifies that all his team had to either die or fall into the water to be up for elimination. Two acknowledges that and Marker explains that Fanny didn't die, she just got split in two while her mouth remains on the beam. Two says that it's seems like a technicality, but Marker along with Black Hole refuses to accept that and says that it's unfair. Two finally agrees and asks the other contestants to continue.
In "Outbreak At Stake", Marker is seen at the start off the episode with everyone else about the Barf Bag situation, and was seen running off with Fanny and Black Hole. When Two announces the challenge, Marker is the one to tell them his team was with Tree. During the challenge, he is seen taunting Fanny, telling her she can't argue without her mouth, and presented the solution they should move Tree. He and Fanny both jumped down and started digging. He asked Black Hole for more time, and he was dead set on moving Tree for a lot of the contest. The strategy helped form a crack in the ground, helping Pin get out of the underwater cave. After the zombie situation was solved, Teardrop was confirmed to be dead, visibly upsetting and shocking Marker. He also seemed interested when Teardrop opened her mouth, thinking she was going to speak.
In "Oneirophobe's Nightmare", Marker recovers Just Not after they died last episode. He is also seen arguing after Cake at Stake. In Black Hole's nightmare, Marker is killed by Black Hole when he tries to stop Black Hole from killing everything. Later, Tree recovers him with an HPRC, but he gets killed again shortly after. After the nightmare ends, Marker is seen in the boat with Fanny while she cuts down Tree, reminding him that the problem is gonna get worse before it gets better.
In "What's Up Bell's String?", Marker and Fanny are working to cut down Tree, who is still in his canal-bound state. As they near completion, Marker holds Tree up, assuring him that they're almost done. Just then, Black Hole arrives and warns Marker to let go of Tree because he is about to fall. Before Black Hole can finish his sentence, however, Tree dies and lands on Marker.
Later, Two announces a team swap, instructing them to form four teams of six. Marker comments that this was exactly what he was thinking. After the team formation, Marker welcomes Pin and Gaty to the team and supports Pin's idea of her becoming the new team leader. They later name their new team Death P.A.C.T. Yet Again. During the challenge, Pin throws Marker at Black Hole and orders them to find items for their pit. Marker assures Pin that they'll find something and then ushers Black Hole in the opposite direction to begin their search. As they are leaving, Tennis Ball spots them, and orders someone on to follow them.
Marker and Black Hole visit several venues and struggle to pick something for their pit until Black Hole reminds Marker that they only have three minutes to complete the challenge, and must bring back the next thing they see. They enter Davidland, where Black Hole picks up one of the Davids. This provokes the David, whose sound waves cause Black Hole to drop Marker. He lands between Pen and Needle in the evil forest, who are throwing a tree back and forth at each other. Marker gets up and tells them to cut it out, but Needle throws the tree back at Pen, which ends up landing on Marker.
Later, Pen and Needle are still arguing over the tree while Black Hole searches for Marker. He eventually finds Marker, who begs him to stop Pen and Needle from fighting. Black Hole successfully provokes David, whose sound waves send Marker, Pen, and Needle flying towards Black Hole, who catches them all. Marker thanks Black Hole for saving him, and Black Hole tells him to pipe down to avoid provoking David again.
They arrive at the pit, and Pen and Needle continue to fight over the tree. Marker tells them to stop, adding that they would be unstoppable together, which eventually convinces Pen and Needle to cooperate and carry the tree to their pit. Fanny gets mad at Marker for helping other teams, and Marker apologizes. Eventually, the contest ends, and Marker's team wins the challenge due to having the most items in their pit. They are rewarded with Robot Flower. When Robot Flower arrives, she pushes Marker to the ground, commenting that they were lucky.
In "Category One," the challenge requires teams to protect the hotel from their respective creatures and prevent them from reaching Two's room, with Death P.A.C.T Yet Again being assigned to handle the rapidly approaching bugs. With the instructions clear, the team heads to the ground floor to brainstorm. There, Robot Flower proposes killing all the bugs for safety, but Fanny and Black Hole surprise everyone by announcing a slight change to their pact. Robot Flower ignores them and continues her bug-killing spree, leaving Marker and Tree puzzled about the pact's revision.
Black Hole explains that they are prioritizing life first, while Fanny emphasizes the need to make compromises to adapt to the situation. In a fit of rage, Robot Flower picks up Marker and slams him against the wall, crushing several bugs in the process, which disturbs Marker as he realizes he inadvertently caused death. They urge her to stop, but Robot Flower challenges them, asking who will stop her. The scene then shifts to the rest of her team surrounding Robot Flower, resolute in their determination to put an end to her reckless actions once and for all.
Later, Robot Flower kicks Roboty away, shocking the rest of the team, and she lets out a menacing laugh. Frustrated, Marker, Tree, and Fanny all lunge at her, but she effortlessly dodges their attacks. In a brutal turn of events, Robot Flower ultimately kills Tree. Marker, feeling the weight of loss, retaliates by kicking her and biting her arm. She pushes him off, prompting Marker to chase her upstairs, where he is unexpectedly sprayed with foam water. The fight continues, escalating as Marker strikes Robot Flower with a nearby painting. He removes his cap and tells her to play nice before hurling a ceiling lamp at her, resulting in an electric shock that leaves her momentarily stunned. Curiosity getting the better of him, Marker leans in to touch her, but he too is electrocuted, leading to his demise.
Subsequently, Robot Flower is restored to her normal state. Marker is also seen being recovered by Fanny, while Tennis Ball tries to persuade Black Hole to brave the storm and use his gravity to neutralize it. Although initially hesitant, Black Hole eventually agrees and sets off. The rest of the team decides to eliminate the remaining bugs, and during a montage, Marker uses Basketball to take them down one by one. Once the bugs have been defeated, Fanny congratulates everyone for their efforts. However, Marker spots one last bug that hasn’t been dealt with. Determined to finish the job, the group chases it up the stairs, however, Tennis Ball intentionally trips himself, causing everyone to tumble back down to the ground floor. He sarcastically apologizes for his clumsiness, while Robot Flower bolts off in pursuit. However, she arrives too late, and the bug reaches Two's room, biting them. Furious at the breach, Two recalls that the bugs were the responsibility of Death P.A.C.T Yet Again and angrily puts them up for elimination.

General[]
- In BFDI 17, Marker has a tattoo on his arm reading "IMMUNITY GOES TO ME!"
- Marker's OMG phrase is "Oh My Artist" (OMA).
- According to the Official Character Guide, Marker likes to write "GAMER" on his arms.
- Marker was originally going to be voiced by his creator Alexlion0511, but this was changed.
- As stated by Cary Huang on his reaction to BFB 1, they had dropped the idea as it would be easier for the production crew if they knew the voice actor in real life.
- In "The Liar Ball You Don't Want", Marker says that Donut is possibly a vampire too. This could be a reference to Ruby stating that "Donut's blood tastes pretty good" in BFDIA 5a. This can be further proved in BFDIA 13 where Donut orders an island full of blood.
- When Marker had the Twinkle, his body was completely white instead of glowing.
- Marker's voting icon is the only icon drawn on paper.
- Additionally, Marker's icon is also drawn with a purple marker.
- Marker can be seen without his cap in "Don't Dig Straight Down" and "You Know Those Buttons Don't Do Anything, Right?".
- As a recommended character, he had a fine point tip, but now he has a chisel tip.
- Marker's BFB design appears to be based off that of a Crayola marker.
- He has a distinct voice characterized by "exaggerated mouth movements" according to Cary.
- Marker and Basketball are tied for the second oldest recommended characters to participate in a season at some point, as they were both recommended in "A Leg Up in the Race".
- It is revealed in TPOT 1 that his ink is washable.
- The person that recommended Marker went on to make a Roblox game called Find the Markers, which involves the player searching for many variations of Marker.
- Marker used to be orange, and at one point, blue according to the recommender of Marker, "alexlion05".
- The Marker plush made an appearance on BBC Breakfast at 8:53 AM BST (UTC+1) on April 8, 2023, brought to an interview by English writer Aston Smith, the 11-year-old author of Things About Space.[5][6]
- Due to the theme of the interview, the Marker plush was likened to "a space rocket with legs".
- Aston's Marker plush made a second appearance, on ITV News Anglia on April 12, 2023, during the ITV News Regional program at 6:00–6:28 PM BST.[7]
- This makes Marker the first BFDI character to appear in a news program.
- Despite hating purple, Yellow Face is completely fine with him being on his team.
- This might either be because he got over his hatred against the color purple before BFB, or he just enjoys Marker's company.
- In "Balancing P.A.C.T.", Marker's loophole in the rules is similar to when Match played a similar strategy against Free Food in "Questions Answered".
- Interestingly, both scenarios take place in the eighth episode of their respective seasons.
- Marker's design resembles Crayola's markers, only difference being that Marker does not have a logo on his body, and the top of his cap is indented, with a round top on it.
- Marker has a major voice change in Battle for Dream Island Again. While in "Well, Look Who It Is!" he was voiced by Joseph Pak to do his "tough guy" voice, he was voiced by Cary Huang in "Spore Day" onwards.
