Ruin DLC Theory

[King Sloth]

We all can safely assume that the DLC takes place sometime after the presumed cannon ending. I was wondering about the ending where you leave at 6am. As you could see, Gregory was sleeping in a cardboard box and we saw Vanny's shadow, but she seemed unarmed, so she probably took Gregory back to the Pizzaplex. Why would Vanny not be freed after Burn Trap died? Simple, he did not die. We do not see The Blob actually kill him, just take him away. What if The Blob saved him? This could be because circus baby could be in control of the blob, and circus baby is still very obedient to her father. But how does the cannon ending and the 6am ending connect? Gregory could have lost Freddy at some point. We saw in a different ending how Freddy needs power, and Gregory used a car battery to recharge him. What if after the cannon ending, Freddy ran out of power, and Gregory was in a situation where he had to run. This could be why he is in an alleyway. This all could have happened in the time span of a few months and that is why the Pizzaplex is run down. It was shut down due to the missing children. Afton may still be alive but hiding away during the DLC, or he could appear at the end of the DLC.

Just a thought though.

Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on how you look at it), Tales from the PizzaPlex confirms that Burntrap is not Afton, but rather a new villain called the Mimic. It is an AI that was created in the 1980's for the original Fazbear Entertainment, intended to mimic performances to make programming for new animatronics easier.

However, it takes its programming too far and starts mimicking everything it sees, including William's murders.

I personally think that Burntrap is indeed Afton and the Mimic is The Blob. In the last book, the Mimic had 9 legs and eyes on various locations which kind of hints that the Mimic is the Blob. some people say that the corpse inside of Burntrap is Kelly, but if that was true, Burntrap would look like a blue dog and not like Springbonnie. I feel like the Mimic grabbed Afton because he was the only thing human that his programming could detect, aside from Gregory.

Not exactly sure which ending the Ruin DLC follows after, (if any of them at all), but I have reason to believe that the endings don't connect with one another, just like in FFPS. I noticed in the Ruin DLC trailer that Freddy was in a dumpster which implies that he escaped the underground pizzeria or he was trashed by someone (probably Vanny, however Monty has the desire to throw Freddy in a dumpster as well judging by the Monty Golf ARcade game) in some other ending. Is Vanny under control? I have no idea. Vanessa has a mentality that feels human but Vanny could also be something that isn't human.

Interesting thoughts. Only time can tell who is right and who is wrong.

I'm a bit worried about the mask I saw.(check the trailer footage) Can only guess why that girl has it.

On the other hand, saw that non-violent moment with Faceless Roxy. Maybe that wolf found the true meaning of friendship, despite her pride?

It might mess up the ability for animatronics to notice her in a similar fashion to what Vanny did in Security Breach.

WAIT THE BOOKS ARE CANNON?

[Sonchild]

Probably not? I think the epilogues at the end of the books are canon but I have my own personal theory about the tales before the epilogues. I think someone is writing them in the Fnaf Universe as a propaganda. They are tales after all and tales don't have to be true. The endings are recalling what happened at the Underground Pizzeria, but the tales could just be a means of framing Afton's victims to keep anyone from wanting to rescue them.

[Sonchild]

And no the Mimic is not confirmed to be Burntrap. They don't mention William Afton or Burntrap in any of the books so I don't know who got those ideas. Probably a bunch of people jumping to conclusions way too quickly. Now I'm not saying that Burntrap can't be the Mimic, because it could be, but we can't confirm anything yet because there hasn't been any declaration of the Mimic being Burntrap. I don't really have fun with finding theories but I think this time in particular, I think it's been fun. I personally like to look at all the pieces and figure out the story myself rather than just listening to Game Theory who thinks that Glamrock Freddy and Mr. Hippo are the same animatronic or something like that.

July 14th through July 31st.

Today is July 14th

Also I do not think the books are cannon. If anyone knows marvel they have a series called What If and it basically gives answers to questions, but the content is not cannon. I feel that is how they treat the books. In one of them, Charlie lives meanwhile Henry dies to his own making.

Yeah I agree. I feel like the epilogues would be canon since they have that kind of isolated feeling, but it could just be in another universe. Or it could be that Scott Cawthon wants people to have fun with the lore by grabbing pieces that they want and composing them into theories. But yeah, lots of things in the books don't line up, like Glamrock Chica being yellow and carrying a cupcake, and Gregory being the actual villain. (I think someone framed him by putting GGY on the machines) There are also various inhumane things such as goo people which don't necessarily make sense in a situation like this.

I think if the books had to be canon, I would say that they are actually being written in the Fnaf universe as some form of propaganda, to possibly put the blame off of Vanny and Afton and make them look like good guys, and with these books they could also justify kidnapping Gregory and hurting him. But that is assuming that the books are canon.

[Sonchild]

Also in regards of which ending is canon, I'm not exactly sure yet. We can rule out the car ending, and possibly the Princess quest ending, but I feel like the rest of them could possibly apply. I know there are stars at the end of each ending but I think the stars aren't actually significant to which ending is true. I think they are mean't to signify the wellness of the ending with 1 star being a bad ending, 2 stars being a neutral ending, and 3 stars being a good ending, as the game's achievement describes the Princess quest ending as the good ending.

I would like to ad my two cents in this topic. It is confirm the book are like special ending the true ending is the one where burntrap get burn, there are some new previews about the new dlc ruin that can confirm this and a trailer also from what i can tell burntrap survive and is running a mock in the pizza plex however his body is very damage all that left it his endo form running around for some new prey.

It was so hard to understand that grammar. And also it's "two sense"
