Tim Wright is one of the main characters in the MarbleHornets ARG and was a friend of Brian, one of the missing cast members, and also the personae Masky. He appears frequently and to date is one of the most mysterious characters in the series. Because of a chain of events that occur later in the series, Tim eventually becomes the central point of view.

Masky is notable for being one of the major driving plot devices in the series and being a recurring character. Masky's actions and the theories surrounding him have lead to the concept of proxies being created, although Masky himself (nor Hoody), have ever been stated to be proxies. It is also worth noting that Masky actively works against The Operator meaning he would usually not be considered a proxy. Masky is generally regarded as a mysterious antagonist; however, his actions in saving Jay and Jessica from being murdered by Alex in Entry #52 might suggest otherwise.

If Entry #55 is to be believed, then Tim may have been stalked by the Operator for years, and everyone else got roped in due to involvement with him. If Entry #59 is to be believed, Tim has had no recollection of any of the events as Masky [due to the blackouts], nor any knowledge of the Operator until this entry. Entry #60.5 even hints Tim may have been stalked by the Operator since his childhood.

In Entry #85, Alex infiltrates Tim's apartment and sprays lighter fuel all over the house while Tim watches in hiding. Alex challenges Tim to face him should he survive the burning of the house. Tim escapes the house with his car keys and his pill bottle as Alex sets the house alight. Tim declares that now that Alex has taken everything from him, he has no restraints and will go after Alex.

In Entry #86, Tim confronts Alex at Benedict Hall and they start fighting, only to encounter the Operator, who interrupts by teleporting them to various locations before sending them back. Tim eventually gains the upper hand in the battle and fatally wounds Alex by stabbing him in the neck. Tim leaves Alex to die from his wounds offscreen and drops his camera as he collapses at the end of the video.

Entry #87 explains that Tim is still alive and plans to leave the area. He uploads the words "Everything is fine" along with a 5 minute video.

Personality

Entry #59 gives the best display of Tim's personality. He appears to be very distressed and extremely upset over his condition, having huge blackouts and being unable to awaken for large periods of time with no recollection. Although he is a calm individual on the exterior, his true personality is that of a scared man who wants to be normal and escape the hell that chases him.

Appearances

Tim is first mentioned in Entry 5, while Alex and Jay are doing some location scouting.

In Entry 7 Alex feeds Brian Lines, which would be the lines of Tim. (Alex's 2006 footage)

He is first seen in Entry 9. He is trying to film a scene with fellow actress Sarah, but it get more and more difficult due to Alex behavior. (Alex's 2006 footage)

Tim is named at the end of Entry 12, noting that he has just arrived. (Alex's 2006 Footage)

In Entry 15, three years after Marble Hornets' filming, Jay contacts Tim and arranges an interview, claiming to want to finish the movie. Instead, he begins to ask Tim about Alex and the circumstances surrounding the shooting. Tim divulges little information, though he explained that he was Brian's friend and next-door neighbor, and that he didn't know Alex very well (although Alex and Brian were close friends).

In Entry 17 Tim is running lines with Jay and Alex.

In Entry 35, the Masked Man attacks Jay and Alex and, upon Jay's removal of the mask, it is confirmed that The Masked Man is in fact Tim. After Alex is stabbed by Tim in the leg and is denied the knife by Jay, he smashes and subsequently breaks Tim's leg. This is believed to explain the Masked Man's limp in Entry 33.
