William Afton | 45 | He/Him


William has always been an eccentric person, never quite fitting in.

He can come across as quite frantic and wild but he's just very enthusiastic, speaking more with his hands than anything. He's always been fascinated by making machines that appeared 'alive', as a kid he loved to take apart motorised toys and then put them back together. Anyone who knew him would be surprised to find out he ended up being a restaurant owner of all things.

William loves all his kids dearly and is a pretty good dad just a bit forgetful. He avoids his ex-wife like the plague, always immediately handing the phone to one of the kids whenever she rings or standing in the furthest corner of the room away from her when she visits.

He tries not the think about the previous restaurants very much. He often dodges around the subject and becomes very tense whenever they are brought up. He feels just as guilty as Henry, he just doesn't like showing it.

fun fact: I forgot to colour his badge in.

William tries his best to be a friendly and charming host to customers but he very quickly gets caught up in rambling about the animatronics that it weirds people out and they end up waving him off with what they hope is a placating smile. He's just very excitable and it bleeds through into everything he does; even when he is by himself, he'll be mumbling about whats on his mind or pacing around the room. Like I said, He's actually a pretty chill dude, wanting to make friends with people, he just isn't very good at it.

He has alot of sharp features which doesn't help his slightly intimidating presence. He tends to move in very exaggerated movements aswell. He does have springlock scars along most of his body besides his head. He isn't ashamed of them and does not care about others seeing them. He will often have his sleeves rolled up whenever he's doing something. He has a matching bracelet with CC and Lizzy that's purple but it's hidden under his sleeves.
