Marshmallow fondant can crack for several reasons, including incorrect moisture levels, overworking the fondant, or applying it when it's too cold. If the fondant is too dry, it may need a bit of water or shortening added to improve its elasticity. Additionally, ensure that the surface you're rolling it on is adequately dusted with cornstarch or powdered sugar to prevent sticking and tearing. Lastly, if the fondant is applied to a cake that is still warm or not properly cooled, it can lead to cracking as it sets.
