Creed Rowland Bratton, also known as "William Charles Schneider" (claims to have been born November 1, 1925) is a fictional character from the U.S. television series "The Office".
 Confusion may arise from the fact that the character is played by the musician of the same name, Creed Bratton.
 The fictional Creed is partially based on the experiences and former flower child lifestyle of the real one; however, the character is an embellished version of the real person.
 Unlike most characters of this version of "The Office", he has no equivalent in the original BBC series despite sharing similar lines in the pilot episode with the character of Ryan Howard.
 Series writer B. J. Novak has said that the actual Creed Bratton is exactly like the character he plays, except that the real Creed is a good-hearted and likable person, while his fictional alter ego has a very dark side to him.
 His resourcefulness and duplicity are his defining traits along with his senile behavior and ignorance of the modern world.
