Nova was the child of N, creator of the FNaF games, and V. She had loving parents when she was a child (Worker Drones in this AU), but things took a turn when a strange man named Michael took all of that away in one night. As an adult (disassembly drones in this AU), she continued her father's work, but still has visions and trauma from the fateful night.

Nova suffers from hallucinations of the deomic withered versions of Freddy, Bonnie, Chica and Foxy, and thus keeps a flashlight with her at all times. She doesn't explain her problems with anyone since no one outside her immediate family believes her. Like her dad, Nova is a computer scientist and indie developer trying to keep the FNaF franchise alive.

She wears a croptop sky blue shirt, a leather jacket, jeans and sneakers. She inherited her mother's figure while inheriting her father's messy hair. She tends to take a lot of prescribed medications to chase her hallucinations away, but they do nothing. They did, however, get her addicted to them as if they were her only family now.

Her house is installed with cameras everywhere, inside and outside, proving her paranoia is really high.

Here is Nova's backstory: During the second FNaF anniversary, one in which N, her dad, was excited to have, a man named Michael was taken in by her family. Once 12 AM struck, it seems the sprites came to life because the game animatronics, that being Freddy, Bonnie, Chica and Foxy all in some sort of charred and withered form, attacked their home. Nova barely survived until 6 AM, or at least what her clock said, before being taken away by V, her mother, along with Vince. The three of them left the house, in which it began to burn up moments later. Soon, when 6 AM actually struck, N came out of the house, but instead of him acting as his usual self, he revealed he was possessed by Michael.

Years pass, along the way, V died from the same demons.

More time passes, with Nova being 29 at that point and Vince was 26. Vince was supposed to inherit the house that was burned, only to be killed by those demons too.

N's FNaF game was meant for fun, but it seems the demons feed off of his creations and become the doppelgangers of what he created.

They say what doesn't kills you makes you stronger. That's a lie. A horrendous, mocking lie.

Many people back then used to know my dad, Noah Cawthon, or Serial Designation N as he's known online. N's wife is Val, or Serial Designation V on the internet. I was their first child, with Vince coming out next years later. We lived modestly until my dad made the first Five Nights at Freddy’s game. It feels our family had become famous overnight. The game's second anniversary changed my life forever, but not in a good way, nor in a way you may think.

August 8, 2016, my mom bought and wore a Foxy costume, and we'd play a pretend FNaF scenario of V trying to get us. Dad bought cake, pizza, and other foods that the FNaF universe would have in the pizzeria. I thought this would be the next night ever, until a strange man suddenly entered our home. A man named "Michael." N took him in since the man in since he desperately needed a place to sleep. Bad things happened there since.

I slept with my little brother since he was scared of rainy storms when the man told us about the strange robot animals. I didn't think much of it as the big sister, until they tried to attack us. Freddy through the window, Bonnie from our door, Chica from the closet, and Foxy from under the bed. Ignited, demonic versions of my Dad's characters. Mom barely got us out, but we were saved by her. I can't say the same for Dad, but... I will tell you know Michael is possessing him. I just know it.

My life went down hill since. I was in college when Mom died from the same demons that took Dad away. I thought I'd still have my brother left, and with the earnings N made years ago, Vince bought back our house. That same night, he died, and only I knew how.

But no one will believe me. Not even my own therapist. These demons exist, but I feel censored about my own problems.

Today, I'm 29 and single. Who'd wanna date a woman who downs prescription medications on a daily just to convince herself she's just seeing things when they are all real? My home represents me: an absolute mess. I have cameras installed everywhere in the house. And yet, I can still feel the nightmares.

I used to work at a gaming company until my boss fired me for "being insane." I'm at home, creating and updating games in the FNaF franchise. It's the only thing left of N.

I slam my head against my desk top. Another bug. The code crashed the game. I'm losing my mind. I just cry to myself. When I cry, V is the first one to comfort me, but... she's dead. And so is N, and Vince.

The rest of the world avoided me.

I'm all alone.
