[[folder: The Fazbear Technician]]

* PsychopathicWomanchild: Downplayed. While Vanessa in the Retro [=CDs=] in ''Security Breach'' avoids eating candy due to the calories and is remarked to be an exemplary employee, implying maturity, it's also noted in ''Special Delivery'''s unintended emails that some of her more normal orders are [[GlurgeAddict saccharine things]] you'd expect of [[NothingNiceAboutSugarAndSpice a young girl]]. Additionally, Vanny's default walk cycle is a serene skip, and [[FauxAffablyEvil she cheerfully waves through Lost and Found's window]] before coming inside to grab Gregory. She is also shown doing CreepyBallet, and an unused animation has her doing cartwheels. It's heavily implied that she's reasonable for the various graffiti you can see throughout the Pizzaplex.That said, Vanessa is less 'psychopathic' and more a DemonicPossession victim who [[AmbiguousSituation may or may not]] also be an adult child abuse survivor.

* NoNameGiven: Like the last guy, we never get to know his name. [[spoiler:However, given the uncanny similarities his character and story shares to a character from the seventh Literature/FiveNightsAtFreddysFazbearFrights novel, his name ''might'' be Evan. A puzzle in the Logbook also gives "Evan" as an answer.]] [[spoiler:If you go by the movie, Garrett is also a possible name, if Mike’s little brother is supposed to be his counterpart]].

* NoNameGiven: His name is unknown, as [[spoiler:the place burned down before he could receive his paycheck]]. Therefore, he could potentially be any of the previous guards. However, ''Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria Simulator'' implies this guard is [[spoiler:Michael Afton or Henry]], who is on [[spoiler:his quest to stop [[BigBad William]], though it is also possible that alongside Jeremy he is one of two security guards who isn't a false identity. As it stands, it is most likely Michael]]. The [[Literature/FiveNightsAtFreddysFazbearFrights Fazbear Frights]] books also have a character named Hudson as the fright guard, [[spoiler: though since the story featuring him ends with his death, whether he exists in the games is questionable]].

* DecoyProtagonist: Many things point to him being ''not'' the one experiencing the nightmares that make up the main gameplay. It could be [[spoiler:his guilt-ridden brother (who, if the ''Survival Logbook'' and a red-ink sketch of Nightmare within is anything to go by, might be Michael Afton)]] that's suffering them instead.

** Cassie ends up trapped in the ruins of the Pizza Place [[spoiler:in a falling elevator or is implied to go insane if she wears her Vanni mask at the freadbear cutout.]]
