## Personality

Bree comes across as an eccentric and quirky individual, detached from the outside world after years of living in the Pizzaplex. However, beneath her eccentricities lies a person with a warm and outgoing personality. Her upbringing within the Pizzaplex has left her struggling with typical human social cues, but her heart is genuinely filled with kindness and empathy for those close to her.

She has a genuine fondness for animatronics, treating them with the same care and consideration as if they were living beings. She serves as a conduit for fulfilling the animatronics' needs, whether it's playing music tailored to their preferences or procuring items for their respective locations. Bree's life within the Pizzaplex has made her a big fan of Fazbear Entertainment media, possessing an encyclopedic knowledge of the animatronics' characters due to her exposure to various forms of media. Her deep respect and protective nature toward the animatronics is evident in her interactions with official Fazbear employees. She strongly dislikes seeing the animatronics harmed, particularly by control shocks, which she knows they find painful and becomes fiercely defensive when people dismisses them as simply robots.

Bree's intelligence shines through in her expertise in engineering and her proficiency in creative pursuits such as drawing and concept art. She takes on responsibilities like overseeing the Emily Function Program servers and updating Character Programs for all the animatronics. Her childhood fascination with blueprints, manuals, and production notes for the animatronics laid the foundation for her skills. She also takes charge of repairing the Glamrocks.

Bree's caring nature extends to kids shown by her warm reception of Gregory when they first meet. She involves him in filling in parts of Glamrock Freddy's Character Program and reassures him that everything will be alright. Her responsible side emerges when she provides him with a map of the Pizzaplex and an "Ultimate Passcard" for complimentary food. Her protective instincts resurface when she learns of the events at the Mega Pizzaplex, leading her to confront and attack Vanny.

As a child, Bree was notably excitable and profoundly curious about her surroundings, occasionally wandering off when captivated by something intriguing. Her interactions with animatronics, even those like Springtrap and the Nightmares, reveals she sees the them from a completely different perspective that doesn’t scare her. Her childhood fascination with animatronics and their inner workings is evident, with Freddy remembering a time where her drawing of an endoskeleton didn't scare her, despite other kids reacting with fear.

## Trivia

* Bree's character initially started as a direct self-insert based on CosmiisChillin, with her name being a shortened version of Cosmi's real name, Gabrielle. However, as the development of the character progressed, Bree evolved into a distinct and original character separate from Cosmi.
	+ Bree's initial concept was a security guard who sketched the animatronics during night shifts, serving as a caricature of Cosmi. She was revised to avoid the portrayal of an overtly meta and pop culture-spouting self-insert character, a depiction that felt too reminiscent of Mindy Kaling's portrayal of Velma.
* When it comes to Bree's voice, both ENAF creators sees entertainers like Keke Palmer, Quinta Brunson, or Amber Ruffin as inspiration. They believe that this choice complements her upbringing in an entertainment-filled environment, leading to a more dynamic and energetic voice portrayal.
	+ Quinta Brunson was inspired by her roles in *Abbott Elementary* and *A Black Lady Sketch Show*, as well as her performance of "Levitating" on The Tonight Show.
	+ Cosmi chose Amber Ruffin because she enjoys Amber’s sketches and humor in her titled show, *The Amber Ruffin Show*.
	+ When Cosmi does Bree's voice, she puts more inflection into her tone sounding like she has more energy.
* Bree is a polyglot, meaning she knows various languages thanks to interactions with various animatronics within the Pizzaplex.
	+ Japanese from Renee Tanuki.
	+ Spanish from El Chip and Hunnie.
	+ Italian from Funtime Foxy and Lolbit.
	+ French from Stella Bat.
	+ German from Funtime Freddy but is not fluent.
* Bree's middle name is "Teddy," resulting in her full name being **Bree Teddy Fazbear**.
	+ This choice is likely a playful reference to her adopted family, who happen to be bears with the exception of Misty and Renee.
	+ Coincidentally, this with her last name sounds like Teddy Bear, a nickname Freddy often gives to her and is her penname.
	+ In a fictional context, Freddy and Misty's daughter in the Hurricane Night's comic series is named Teddie though it is spelled with -ie instead of -y like Bree.
* Originally, Bree's color motif was warm sage, but it was later changed to orange. This alteration was made in recognition of the mirroring relationship between Bree and Vanessa, akin to William Afton and Henry Emily, both of whom share color motifs of purple and orange.
* The idea of Bree's bear ear afro puffs was inspired by a childhood memory of Cosmi's mother referring to afro puffs as "Minnie Mouse ears."
* Bree shares some traits with her creator, including ADHD and Autism. She experiences moments of hyperfocus, possesses special interests in drawing and animatronics, faces sensory issues, and engages in physical stims like hand smacks and rocking.
	+ Cosmi states that Bree is not a savant, emphasizing that her mastery of skills is a result of her time spent around animatronics rather than an innate, extraordinary talent.
* Bree identifies as aceflux, a term indicating that her sexuality fluctuates between asexual and allosexual.
	+ This places her as the only human character in the Endless Nights at Freddy's universe who falls within the asexual spectrum.
* While Bree is adept at operating Go-Karts and golf carts, she doesn't know how to drive actual cars.
	+ This is a humorous contrast to her proficiency with animatronics and engineering.
* Bree's adoption by the animatronics serves as a narrative tool to discourage proshipping and NSFW art involving her and the animatronics. It establishes that all of the animatronics see Bree as family and all but the glamrocks have know her since she was a minor.
