Please define mascot... The root word of mascot being mask....

Oxford: "a person or thing that is supposed to bring good luck or that is used to symbolize a particular event or organization."

Also has absolutely nothing to do with the word mask. "late 19th century: from French mascotte, from modern Provençal mascotto, feminine diminutive of masco ‘witch’."

You're welcome.
