**Goldie** is one of the many animatronics in the cast of *Endless Nights at Freddy's*. She is the only female variant of Freddy, who is her older brother. Goldie is a classic animatronic working under Fazbear Entertainment at the Fazbear’s Ultimate Pizzaplex. Goldie works as the host in Fazbear Frights along with Springtrap.

Originally, Goldie was a ghost-like entity known as **Golden Freddy** possessed by a girl named **Cassidy** who was killed in 1985. Cassidy took on the form of Freddy with a yellow color hence known as Golden Freddy. Since then, Golden Freddy was considered an urban legend spoken between employees at Fazbear Entertainment. During the development of the classics for the Ultimate Pizzaplex, Golden Freddy was made to be a female counterpart of Freddy and name was changed to Goldie. Despite Cassidy no longer controlling Golden Freddy, Goldie has retained all of Cassidy’s memories as Golden Freddy and due to her remnant, still is capable of using powers akin to Golden Freddy’s.

## Appearance

Goldie is a yellow anthropomorphic grizzly bear animatronic with light yellow coloring on her upper snout, inner ears, stomach, palms, and bottom feet. Differing from Freddy and other Freddy variants, Goldie's body is more feminine and has a curvy build. Unlike Freddy, Goldie's eyes are completely black with glowing white pupils though the pupils can sometimes be gone completely but commonly, it’s only her left eye with no light similar to Lefty. Some of the tufts on her head is curled. She has a set of three freckles on the sides of her snout. Sometimes black oil like tears drip from her eyes and her face is often shadowed.

Normally, Goldie wears a dark purple long coat that ruffles at the end similar to a dress with a sleeveless vest with gold buttons with matching bowtie and hat with a white bow on the center.

## Personality

Unlike her family members, other Classics and the majority of the animatronics, Goldie is quiet and mysterious very much due to how she’s based on the urban legend of Golden Freddy. She's an introvert who sometimes is never seen even after hours, preferring to stay in Fazbear Frights or being around her family. Her presence is so unknown that when she appears or speaks after being quiet, she sometimes scares both people and animatronics alike. When she does make an appearance, she is often blunt and straight to the point to people. Her brutal honesty often comes off as antagonistic but she is never purely malicious.

Despite her standoffishness and dark demeanor, Goldie does not oppose having fun or enjoying herself. She plays games and does duets with her brothers, prank and mess with guards, and scaring people for her entertainment. In recent portrayals, Goldie liked to taunt or trick others in a comical way often making her the foil to Springtrap, the more jaded half of the Fright's hosts. When she sees William, she remembers everything he has done and decides, for the fun of it, to let Springtrap handle him, knowing he's far more cruel to William.

Like all animatronics, Goldie is friendly and passive towards people under 18, especially children however, she's more wary to adults, even if they don't pose a threat to children. She likes to get the adult alone where no one can find them and kill without leaving any evidence.

## Functions

Goldie has a very unique change to her functions that is not found in the majority of animatronics. While she does have an universal-endo, completely new to her animatronic creation, Goldie has so much dark remnant due to Cassidy that she is capable of various powers. Her functions and abilities include:

* **Illusion Creation:** Different than the illusion disks, Goldie can create hallucination-like illusions to trick or scare participants.
* **Electronic Manipulation:** Goldie's powers of illusions extends to electronic devices like cameras and phones, this is also another way for her to send fear and jumpscares. These illusions tend to include glitched words of "ITS ME" and her face completely void of light.
* **Teleportation and Vanishing:** Goldie can use remnant herself to vanish from sight and reappear again.

## Trivia

* In the description of her backstory, Goldie’s biological mother is named Honey.
* Goldie is the only classic animatronic who never appeared in *Freddy and Friends: On Tour!* or *Freddy and Friends: The Movie!*. This is because Goldie never was a character in the fictional media of Fazbear Entertainment in *Endless Nights at Freddy's* canon.
	+ Goldie's first debut is in *Freddy and Friends: The Adventure Show* that establishes her as Freddy's little sister and her animatronic appeared for the first time.
* Goldie is one of the several characters who’s gender was altered in ENAF. The others include Spring Bonnie, Toy Bonnie, Mangle, Puppet, Shadow Bonnie, Phantom Mangle, Phantom Puppet, Nightmare Mangle, Nightmarionne, Funtime Foxy, Lolbit, Security Puppet, and Lefty.
	+ The reason to why Goldie was designed to be female in ENAF was because the creators enjoyed seeing other female versions of the characters as well as the fact that original Golden Freddy was the ghost of Cassidy, a young girl.
* Goldie is the only Freddy variant who identifies as female.
	+ Flora, one of the Freddles belonging to Nightmare Freddy, is female but isn't considered a Freddy variant.
* Goldie and Springtrap’s roles as hosts are based on the Ghost Host of Disney’s ride, The Haunted Mansion.
* Cosmi describes Goldie’s voice as a southern belle but low and rough sounding without going too quiet like Lefty.
* Goldie knows Japanese, which she learned from Renee.
	+ Other parts of Goldie’s interests includes Japanese horror.
	+ Renee called Cassidy a *onryō* or vengeful spirit.
* Despite her eyes being completely void of color, Goldie’s eyes are green when she is using a human illusion disk and whenever Fredbear describes her. This is probably because she inherited the green eyes from Fredbear but thanks to remnant, she makes her eyes physically black.
* The reason to why only Goldie’s right eye commonly has a white pupil present is because Cosmi owns a poster where Withered Golden Freddy’s right eye has the pupil lit up.
* Goldie is jokingly called a Goth Girl because of her more darker clothing. Cosmi states that besides appearance, Goldie wouldn't match the trope of a goth.
* Originally Goldie’s design was more similar to Freddy but in current art, she was given a curl in her hair tuft, the purple on her clothes was slightly lighter, her top hat had a white band with a bow on it, and her eyelids became darker.
