Ana is the antagonist of *The Child*. She's depicted as an evil, chaotic child with dangerous psychic powers although Ana is later revealed to have abusive parents that lock her in closets and even try to murder her. After the end of the game and death of her parents, Ana is seen as a lonely outcast in an orphanage before being found and adopted by the game's protagonist and Ana's babysitter: Kiki. Throughout the game, she is seen; shaking the house, transforming toys into monsters and transporting Kiki and herself into their minds so they could play forever but this goes wrong as she is stabbed by her Mother.

## Background

Ana was an outcasted and abused child, her parents locked her in closets and resented her if she used her psychic powers. A young woman named Kiki is later given the job as a babysitter for Ana although on her first day she is attacked by floating knifes, floating dishes and a monsterized version of Ana's teddy bear.

On the second day, Ana attacks Kiki by summoning TV characters and the teddy bear to kill her but Kiki is able to survive this attack and start a friendship with Ana by feeding her treats. After the day, Kiki has a dream of Ana where she is seen in a dark place, Ana uses her magic to attempt an escape from the people there although she fails.

The third day has Ana and Kiki doing various activities, Ana uses her powers in a more harmless way by switching TV channels, playing the violin and changing a radio's channel. Ana brings Kiki to her room, Kiki is introduced to Happy the clown and after seeing that Kiki is scared of clowns Ana is shown using clowns to scare Kiki in specific endings. At the end of the day, Ana tries to play with Kiki more but due to her parents stopping her Ana uses her powers to transport herself and Kiki into their minds forever.

When Ana's wish to play forever is refused, she attacks Kiki with clowns and magic. Ana teleports Kiki into a house full of clowns with a small doll with stitches named Patches, this makes Kiki realize that she has the powers of Ana and learning this allows her to beat Ana in a fight before she is transported into past memories. The memories make Ana jealous and sad before her mother stabs her whilst Kiki wakes up to witness this.

Kiki is chased by Ana's mother before both Ana's mother and father are brutally killed by Ana, Ana's body dissapears. A post-game cutscene shows a teenage Ana meeting Kiki in an orphanage before she is adopted by her.
