When John was a young detective hired straight out of the academy, his first assignment was to investigate an armed break-in at Scott's house. However, if you decide to hide in the closet or locker while an animatronic is following close behind, they won't be fooled. If you run long enough while an animatronic is running at you, it is possible for them to lose you and return to their normal walking pace.
However, the few visible features indicate him to be a middle-aged, Caucasian male. Featureless Protagonist: Subverted with Bishop-his picture is seen in the lobby, but his face is covered by a drawn-on Batman mask (possibly by Scott).The Bear was initially based off of Freddy Fazbear, but ended up being partially removed from the game to avoid legal issues.She is also similar to Chica from FNAF, as they are both avians. The Owl is based off SCP-174 from SCP Containment Breach, as both have to be continuously stared at to keep them from attacking.The Cat's appearance (right down to the missing eye) is based off of Old Candy from Five Nights at Candy's, which itself is an official FNAF fan game.The Wolf is based off the Big Bad wolf from the Little Red Riding Hood.
Big Bad: DJ Scott is this to John, whom he tries to kill with the animatronics.The game's Wiki now currently lists The Bear's gender as unknown. Ambiguous Gender: Before The Bear's partial removal from the game, the bear was possibly male due to being inspired by Freddy Fazbear.The mobile version of the game subverts this by showing a cutscene of John getting into his car, only to be greeted by Scott sitting in the backseat who proceeds to throw a bag over John's head, presumably kidnapping him. Aside from the knowledge that John escapes the station, we're given no explanation as to what happens to him or Scott afterwards.
