Michael Afton

**Micheal Afton** (sometimes alternatively known as **Foxy Brother** or **Foxy Bro** for short) is the main antagonist of the end-of-night minigames and older sibling of the Evan.

He appears in the post-Night 1 and Night 3 minigames to scare the protagonist at the end of the minigame. He appears again in the Night 5 minigame with his friends to carry the protagonist to Fredbear, causing the Bite of 83'. Afterwards, he apologizes to his younger brother, even though he does not know if he can be heard, before he flatlines in the Night 6 minigame.

## Personality

During his adulthood in *Sister Location*, Michael is shown to have matured greatly and changed as a person, an example being when he returned to his job at Circus Baby's Entertainment and Rental every night of the week despite the danger, which HandUnit mentions, implying that he is extremely brave. This is further shown in the non-canonical **Fake Ending**, when Ennard breaks into his house. In spite of that, he continued to eat his popcorn, unfazed by this revelation. He also seems to have a cultured taste in entertainment, as he enjoys watching soap operas and dramas on television, such as "The Immortal and Restless", as he spent nearly every night watching the program and even made popcorn for the event. He is shown to be a friendly and popular person, as all of his neighbors happily wave to him in the end-of-night minigames.

## Story

### *Five Nights at Freddy's 4*

Micheal and his fellow bullies, wearing the masks of Freddy, Bonnie, Chica, and Foxy, surround the child tormenting him, the one in the Bonnie mask commenting that the child is pathetic. The Brother suddenly gets the idea to force the 2 children to be right next to the Fredbear and Spring Bonnie animatronic, the children screaming and shouting as they are dragged over to them. The Brother decides to force his the kids' head into the animatronic, saying that it's a big kiss to Fredbear. He underestimates the strength of the robotic jaw, only laughing with his friends as his brother's head is stuck. The child's head gets stuck between the front teeth, and the machine injures his jaw, after which the Brother and the bullies stop laughing, though it's unclear if they stopped moving, or if the scene is paused.

### Five Nights at Freddy's 2

In 1987, Jeremy Fitzgerald stops working the night shift at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, after being moved to the dayshift. In his place, Michael Afton, known as Fritz Smith, is hired as the new night guard. He works for the final night of said Pizzeria, where the Toy Animatronics are now possessed and going haywire, due to William Afton committing a series of murders at the new location. Unlike the previous guard, Michael never received a call from Phone Guy. Despite the animatronics being possessed, Michael managed to allegedly tamper with them, likely during the day. Fritz made it through the night, but was given a pink slip and fired for tampering with the animatronics and having a foul odor.

### Five Nights at Freddy's 1

Michael gets the job as a night guard in this location, under the name Mike Schmidt, apparently trying to get free pizza. The animatronics, believing that Michael is William, due to the fact that William is his biological father, mistake Michael for him and try to kill him. Michael then sits in the office surviving with nothing but cameras, lights, and doors for 5 nights until he gets fired after being caught tampering with the animatronics.

### *Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location*

He is the technician of Circus Baby's Entertainment and Rentals and by extension, Circus Baby's Pizza World. He has been revealed to be the player in the final cutscene of Custom Night, where he seems to have a British accent.

In *Sister Location*, Michael is instructed by his father to go to the underground facility and find his sister. This implies that William Afton is aware of the souls of the children staying behind, and knows his daughter's soul is within Circus Baby. Michael trusts his father, and goes to save his sister. On night 1, Michael arrives at Circus Baby's, and HandUnit welcomes him, showing him how to check the animatronics' stages, and if they are not in their proper places, he must shock them to put them back on their stage. Michael successfully shocks Funtime Chica and Funtime Foxy, but fails to shock Baby.

On night 2, Michael checks **Funtime Chica** and **Funtime Foxy,** but when he checks Baby, the controlled shocks do not work, requiring HandUnit to shut down the system. Baby begins to speak to him, and tells him to hide beneath the desk. After surviving Funtime Balloon Boy, Michael crawls through Funtime Gallery, avoiding **Funtime Chica** by listening for her music. He then reaches the Breaker Room, where he restarts all the systems while playing audio to keep Funtime Freddy & Funtime Fredbear from attacking him. Michael then leaves Circus Baby's.

On night 3, Michael returns, checking **Funtime Chica** and **Funtime Foxy**. He then runs through Funtime Auditorium while avoiding **Funtime Foxy**. Michael reaches Parts and Service, where he performs a repair on Funtime Bonnie, and extracts all three power modules. When he returns through Funtime Auditorium, **Funtime Foxy** attacks him, knocking him out.

On night 4, Michael wakes up in a springlock suit. Baby begins talking to him, explaining she kidnapped him. Then, two technicians enter the building, and send **Funtime Chica** to the Scooping Room, where Michael is. He then gets to witness **Funtime Chica** get scooped. He then has to survive an attack of Funtime Puppet and Funtime Balloon Boy.

On night 5, Michael checks the stages, only to see two hanged technicians. He then returns through Funtime Auditorium, and enters Parts and Service, to see a lifeless **Circus Baby**. She explains that she is pretending and something bad happened that day. He then enters a random number sequence into a keypad that flips out of Baby's left central faceplate. After entering the passcode, Michael gets a chip from her upper arm plate so she can communicate with him after she's been scooped.

Michael sends **Baby** to the Scooping Room. She then instructs him to go back into Funtime Auditorium and follow her instructions. Once Michael completes Baby's instructions, he is in the Scooping Room. Baby reveals that her helping him was actually part of a plot so she could use him as a host body for Ennard. As a result, Michael gets scooped and dies.

### Becoming Purple

Michael becomes hunched over and his skin is a dark purple color. His appearance is now very reminiscent of his father's Purple Guy form. Everyone around him has hidden behind their houses in dread. Eventually, his body has a spasm, and he regurgitates the robotic parts belonging to Ennard into the sewer. He lies on the ground, presumably dead. The player then hears Baby's voice repeating "you won't die", and Michael gets back up while all of the Ennard's eyes show up in the sewer. Finally freeing Elizabeth, Michael's only remaining goal is to "find" William, although it's unknown what that means.

### Five Nights at Freddy's 3

Michael was hired prior to opening to monitor the place, but exactly one week prior to opening, was revealed to play the role of the security guard who would receive the clients at the exit. However, paranormal activity began to occur, ranging from hallucinations due to a malfunctioning ventilation system to Springtrap attempting to harm the guard. The attraction never saw the light of day, as Michael burned it down the day before it was supposed to open. Only a few scraps survived the fire, and were soon salvaged and auctioned off.

### Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria Simulator

Henry Emily devised a plan; Have Michael Afton, the brave volunteer, salvage any of the animatronics that fits under "Paragraph Four", then lock them in the labyrinth, once all the animatronics that fit "Paragraph Four" are in the labyrinth, he would turn up the heat to burn down the building and free the spirits inside of Molten Freddy, Springtrap, Lefty, and Righty.
