Dominic Sorkisto

\*Well, if you have completed them, then you can read, ribbit.

**Dominic Sorkisto** (Russian: Доминик Соркисто) is an alcoholic locksmith living in the workshop of King Froggold II’s palace. He is the one who controls the toys and it was he who programmed them to kill. His real name and true motives were revealed in one of the seventh night endings in Five Nights with Froggy 2.

## Appearance

Dominic looks like an elderly man in a red sweater and dark waistcoat. He has long gray hair and some stubble on his face. It is not very well made in the game and many people confuse it with a package.

## Description in the Bestiary

*The philosopher has been living in the Royal Palace for several years. Once Froggold II took pity on the unfortunate man and allocated him a place to live in the palace. The philosopher constantly sits in his studio and does not show himself to anyone. Who knows what he does.*

*The philosopher is inventive and skillful, but he has a strong alcoholism. The whole room is hung with bottles that are constantly in motion.*

*After a raid by vandals, he stayed to live in the palace. The philosopher agreed to help the staff of the Royal Theater, if only they would leave him alone.*

## History

One day, Froggold II met the Philosopher, sheltered him and gave him a place to live in the palace. He has been living in the palace for several years. After Froggold closed the Fairytale Kingdom, the Philosopher and Alexander Osipov were left to look after the palace.

On Monday, Bertin found a man on camera 27. After the shift, Bertin wanted to find out who was in the workshop. The Philosopher opened the door, looked silently, and closed the door. On Tuesday, the Philosopher repaired the toys that were brought by Osipov. After Tuesday, Bertin snuck into the workshop and the Philosopher kicked him out. After Sunday, the Philosopher called Bertin.

Next come the endings.

### Leaving forever

The philosopher threatened Bertin about his survival. After the conversation, Bertin leaves the Theater forever.

### Bertin's folly

The philosopher threatened Bertin about his survival. Despite Dominic's threats, the guard decided to remain in the Theater. As a result, the Philosopher sent all the toys to Bertin at once.

### The end of the palace and Interrupeted arrest

Dominic expressed surprise that Bertin was able to survive. Then, the Philosopher burns (explodes) the palace. As a result, Bertin, Philosopher, and police (the latter only in the second ending) died. Osipov is seen in the hospital at the end.

## Trivia

* Dominic first appeared in Five Nights with Froggy, on the sixth night. He looks out the window into Thomas's hut and leaves immediately.
* In the credits of the 4.0 version of Five Nights with Froggy, his name is covered with "???".
* Dominic is a complete alcoholic. He drank so much that he could no longer speak clearly.
* Dominic knows Bertin and despises him. Why, it's unknown.
* He calls himself *Philosopher*.
* In Five Nights with Froggy 2, the Philosopher is dedicated to two whole events of Bertin, in which Bertin tries to enter his room. In version 1.3.7 and earlier, this was a mini-quest to skip the night called "Visit the Philosopher".
* In the Bottles mini-game, four finds can be found in his room: a handwritten map of the toys' paths, a book of dark magic, a letter from his father, and a concept drawing of Froggy's implanted mechanism.
* In the endings "The End of the Palace" and "Interrupted Arrest", the Philosopher calls us and expresses his surprise that we were able to survive, saying: "WHAT ON EARTH ARE YOU THAT EVEN THE TOYS ON THEIR MAXIMAL LEVEL OF AGRESSION CAN'T REACH YOU! **Crying and coughing**". Then the ceiling falls on us, and we are shown a burning palace, a few meters from which stands the Philosopher with a detonator.
* Since version 2.1, when performing the task "Inspect all the cameras", we will stumble upon a camera looking into the Philosopher's room, and if we wait, we can see how the Philosopher is standing at the table and making something. Apparently, we are witnessing the process of programming toys for the property of killing. When we try to get through to the Philosopher, he says: "Now I will deal with you, hooliganism!" , opens the door and silently looks at us. Only then toys try to kill us. It seems that the Philosopher was just programming plush toys, and he had not yet had time to aim them at someone, but we, having disturbed the Philosopher (on his next drunken night), became his first target to eliminate.
* The philosopher is possibly the organizer of an adult performance called "Alcohol and Philosophy". About this newspaper clipping show in Five Nights with Froggy 2.
* The game Mystery Chamber 2015 Deluxe has a Philosopher clothing skin.
* In the game Simple Battle, there is a chance that the name of the player or bot will be Dominic.
* He is voiced by Artyom Shekhurdin. In older versions, Artyom had pitched down his voice.
* After the endings "Interrupted arrest" and "End of the palace", he died because a fragment of building hit his head when the building exploded. This is confirmed in the newspaper and in the picture which shows a blood puddle on the same exact location Dominic stood.
* The Philosopher's image was taken from a video Gleb made.
