Circus Baby is a very large female animatronic with an overall appearance reminiscent of a clown. She has auburn hair in high pigtails on either side of her head, held in place by blue hair elastics. She has bright green eyes, long, blue eyelashes, and short, blue eyebrows. The sides of her eyes are also covered in blue. Her mouth is opened in a wide smile, revealing small, flat endoskeleton teeth, framed by thin, red lips. Her cheeks are large, round, and red, and her squarish nose is red and slightly upturned and pointed. Her midsection is exposed, revealing a metal fan surrounded by an orange triangle with rounded points. Her limbs have silver segments in rectangular shapes, and her hands have red palms. The tips of her fingers, which appear to be ball-jointed, are not sealed, revealing shiny silver underneath, similar to the springlock suits. Her knees have round, shiny, silver caps, and parts of her limbs have what appear to be blue pins sticking out of them. She wears a red crop top with frills on the shoulders, and a matching, frilly, red skirt (which was changed in design for Special Delivery). The toes of her matching red shoes are pointed and curled, white on the bottom, and topped off with shiny, gold orbs (possibly bells); these are the shoes worn by a jester. Under her skirt, she wears red and orange striped panties; this can only be seen through the error of one of her images in the game files. She holds an orange microphone with red accents in her left hand.

Like all the animatronics in game, her body is made of segmented plates, which can move freely or in unison, with a few exceptions; some plates are static and "float". The only known plates that can move are her face and left arm.

Circus Baby is a tragic, sophisticated yet sinister animatronic. The Circus Baby minigame shows that Baby killed William Afton's daughter, Elizabeth, due to Baby and the other Funtime animatronics being built to murder children.

Baby mainly speaks in a soft, calm voice that almost never raises above a sort of hushed tone. She speaks about children in a very happy manner and claims to have enjoyed entertaining them and making them happy, but she seems to be very distraught, confused, and sorrowful due to her situation and hates being trapped in the rental facility and is even deeply traumatized and haunted by her mysterious and dark past. She also often talks about childish things that have little bearings on the current situation like ice cream, birthday cakes, other children, and even playing pretend. This shows that she maintains her childlike mentality that she had as a human; this is especially evident during Night 4 where she compares the scooper to an actual ice cream scooper used at birthday parties.

However Baby is soon revealed to be just like her twisted “father” William. She is manipulative and cunning as she masterminded almost all the events in Sister Location and even acts theatrical as she says one of her tactics to play pretend and act in a certain way to get what she wants and to manipulate people. She was also shown to be very abusive towards her only friends as it’s implied she either manipulated or outright forced the other animatronics to take part in her diabolical plan to fuse their parts to become the animatronic amalgamation hivemind known as Ennard, to escape the facility. Even after accomplishing her goals, she was still shown to be a control freak and, while being part of Ennard, seemingly forced the other animatronics within the amalgamation to abide under her leadership. This subsequently led them to betray and eject her from Ennard.

It's implied that the reason for Baby’s twisted and controlling behavior is because of the time she spent in the underground facility; as being isolated and tortured may have drove Baby beyond the point of insanity and caused her to be emotionally and mentally unstable, although it is hinted she only fully shows this side of herself and raises her voice whenever pushed over the edge.

Baby was also shown to be extremely resilient as even after being ejected from Ennard she was able to rebuild herself out of mere pieces of scrap. Unfortunately her mental state worsened as she became more violent, sadistic and aggressive, accepting her role as a killer, and expresses thrill at the prospect of murder and quote - "doing what I was created to do".

Despite Baby’s insanity there are a few people she truly cared about, the first being her “brother” Michael Afton although she was mainly manipulating him throughout the game. Her dialogue toward him sounded surprisingly sincere and it’s implied that she truly cared about Michael’s well-being as demonstrated during Night 3, when she rescued him off-screen from Funtime Foxy, albeit in a unethical and odd manner by kidnapping him. Ultimately, when it was time for her plan to reach its final stage, she attempted to comfort Michael before she was forced to kill him with the scooper, reassuring him and saying that "it would only hurt for a moment". Afterwards, when using Michael's skin as a suit to hide and blend in with, when Michael’s corpse ultimately decayed and she was forced to abandon it, Baby reassuringly said "You won't die." It’s possible she knew he would survive all along and never wanted to truly kill Michael, although her views towards her brother changed in Pizzeria Simulator as she actively tried to murder him.

She also seems to have a deep admiration and love for her father and creator William, as she vowed to follow in his footsteps and make him proud, and even affectionately calling him "Daddy".

Out of all animatronics in the series, Ballora is likely the most human-like animatronic yet. Resembling an actual ballerina, she wears a blue bikini and a purple tutu decorated with golden orbs. She has pink, rosy cheeks with matching lipstick, blue hair, and blue nails. Her eyebrows are thin and colored in light-blue. She wears golden pearl-shaped earrings, and a pearl tiara atop her head, making her one of the most decorated characters in the series.

In most of her appearances in the game, Ballora stands in a pose with her hands above her head and has her eyes closed. However, her eyes have been shown occasionally. They look smaller than the other animatronic's eyes due to having a metal casing and pink irises, and her eyelids are blue-colored sporting long eyelashes as well.

Ballora is very seductive and deadly, seemingly calm and composed. She also appears to be very talented at singing. Circus Baby says that "Ballora never learns", which might imply that either she does not like to play pretend or is not able to do so as well as Baby does. Ballora also seems to be very sadistic and taunting and is fearless of what the player thinks of her.
