Fredbear

**Fredbear** and **Fredbear 2.0** are the second and third animatronic bears that William Afton and Henry Emily constructed together for their restaurant, based on the likeness of Ferdinand Von Bernard. Despite seemingly being separate machines, they are treated as a single entity, suggesting they may be a single AI shared between two bodies.

## Appearance

Fredbear is a bulky animatronic made to resemble an anthropomorphic golden grizzly. He has blue eyes and wears a purple tophat with a black bow, matching bowtie and two black buttons.

Fredbear 2.0 appears identical to 1.0.

## Story

After Ferdinand was accidentally given sentience and cosmic powers through illusion discs in 1983, William Afton and Henry Emily built Fredbear as a replacement, simply based on Ferdinand's likeness. He was considered a downgrade to the bear that came before him, being both simpler and lass advanced intellectually, but despite this his creators still loved him.

Since the duo didn't actually have any property to display Fredbear on, they put him in the Hurricane Dump. This attempt was amusing enough to Hurricanians, to earn them enough money to buy a recantly vacated diner space. They set up to renovate the building and make Fredbear a star.

Alongside the renovations, Fredbear was given an artificial intelligence. This decision quickly turned sour as on February 31st, his first real stage performance caused him to spontaneously combust from a nervous breakdown. In an attempt to ease his and other future animatronics' nerves, as well as keep them from their legally required breaks, the newly built Fredbear 2.0 was given a hybrid springlock endo-exo-skeleton, designed to make it possible to wear him as if a costume, as well as rubber teeth. For extra safety, Fredbear was also given a new partner, Springbonnie. The springlock mechanisms, however, were made out of paperclips, making it so that the lightest sneeze could set them off, causing the metal to snap into robot mode, crushing and mangling whoever was inside. It also appears Fredbear's original body was fixed up, as he appears both as he seems to be in two places at once.

After a few months going by with Fredbear's Family Diner being an absolute success, Fredbear and Springbonnie became beloved stars among the Mormons of Utah. William even got a low budget cartoon show to be made about the, titled *Fredbear and Friends*. However, one day Fredbear was caught smoking in the back room by ??? Afton. His blatant nonchalance about his respitory health traumatized the young boy. A few days after, Fredbear and ??? met again, this time while Fredbear was being worn by Trevor Rovert. The child, upset with being shown a Flo's Glossy Floss, purposefully ran into Tervor in order to make Fredbear's springlocks kill him.

This brief saga of Fredbear's problems with ??? concluded when Michael Afton and his pals, wanting to punish ??? for his evil Uno acts during his birthday party, came up with the idea of shoving him in Fredbear 2.0's mouth. Fredbear, taking notice of of Mike mockingly telling ??? to give him a "big kiss", scared for his career, without thinking decided biting the child would be less damaging to his reputations than being accused of having a zoo-mechano-pedophilic kiss. This turned out to be a good decision on his part, as due to his rubber teeth, the kid escaped undamaged. Soon after, ??? revealed he never existed and everyone forgot about him.

Fredbear's popularity came to a close that same day, after the diner's employees reported Harold Fitzharold's and Trevor's corpses inside Fredbear 1.0 and Springbonnie. The location was shut down and the media blamed it on Fredbear 2.0 biting some none existant third Afton child, dubbing the event "The Bite of '83". This was simply a ploy to end Fredbear's career out of jealousy. Fredbear 2.0 was later seen being escorted in handcuffs by Officer Ooftroop to his trial, where he was sentenced to public execution. His body was buried at the Hurricane cemetery, the gravestone reasoning "R.I.P. Fredbear 1983-1983 "Forgettable"", with his hat placed on top of it. The execution seemingly killed him in both his bodies, as the other suit was retired and put in the safe room of William and Henry's new establishment, Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, remaining in a lifeless state.

When William Afton decided to murder five children at Freddy's, he intended to hide the fifth one's body in Fredbear. When Andrew Miller was thrown into the mix, however, both he and Cassidy Brooks were stuffed into Fredbear together, becoming a powerful oversoul with the apperance of a fusion between Freddy and Fredbear, dubbing themselves Golden Freddy.

## Trivia

* It is ambiguous if the second Fredbear after initial robot's combustion is a fixed up version of him, or a yet another, third animatronic.
