Scott DJ

Scott is never seen on screen, however it can be determined from the in-game phone calls that he is a middle-aged male with an American accent. He worked for an unnamed company which specialized in robotics and animatronics until an accident which resulted in the death of his wife and child. It can therefore be inferred that he is very intelligent and capable as an engineer. Most of Scott's backstory is revealed through the collectible Notes found throughout Aurora Police Department. He frequented an unknown pizza restaurant as a child in 1977 which used animatronics as performers, which he remembers fondly. The animatronics were stationary on their stage and children were not permitted to approach the robots. This spurred Scott's interest in engineering and prompted his original design of a fully mobile animatronic. Scott attended university from 1981-1985 in which he met his spouse Emma and they bonded over their love of the animatronics at the family restaurant.

In October 1985, during a Halloween competition, Scott drew up the first sketches of what would eventually become his own original animatronics, based off the design of the animatronics at the family diner. In December Scott attempted to revisit the family restaurant with Emma only to find that the restaurant had been closed due to an incident presumed to be a springlock failure, and also because an unnamed competitor had driven it out of business. Scott approached the owner of the new restaurant and signed a deal which would allow Scott's technology to be used in the new animatronics so that they could be fully mobile. Scott was also approached by other companies looking to use his technology, however he could not agree to this due to the contract he had with the restaurant. At some point he also married Emma.

On a currently unknown date a serial killer broke into Scott's house and threatened him, Emma and their child. John Bishop was sent to deal with the situation as his first call, however Scott's wife Emma and their child were killed in the confrontation and Scott himself was injured. The gunman managed to escape, leaving John will psychological wounds that resulted in him developing amnesia and forgetting all events around the attack.

Scott himself spent two months in a coma, during which time John repeatedly attempted to contact Scott by breaking into the hospital in which Scott was being held. After recovering he refused to work with Aurora Police Department or the company who manufactured the animatronics, instead he sought revenge against John as he blames him for the death of his family. Scott created the four animatronics encountered in game, The Wolf, The Cat, The Owl and The Bear, and traps John inside the police department with him in a murder attempt. This was done while John was sleeping in his office due to him being overworked. Scott leads John around the building in an attempt to force him to remember and confront the actions that resulted in Scott's family's demise.

Scott begins by waking John up and then cutting the power. Scott reveals more of his motivations after the player gains access to the Director's Office, after which point Scott tasks John with surviving until 3AM. He also turns off the ventilation to the building at this point to make survival more difficult. It is not necessary to restart the ventilation however the screen will warp if the temperature is too high so it is advantageous to reset the ventilation before continuing.

After John picks the lock to the Archive Scott will call him for the last time. He laments that the animatronics were not enough to kill John and that he will increase their power. This then cuts the power to the whole building and momentarily deactivates all three animatronics. The player then has a short amount of time to find each animatronics and check their backs to see if they are carrying a keycard for the front door in the Lobby. The first keycard collected will always fail and is removed from the player's inventory after attempts to use it. The second keycard will then spawn on one of the remaining two animatronics who did not have the first card, and this keycard will successfully unlock the front door and grant the player the Ending.

(John Bishop does not appear on screen but his picture can be found at the Lobby next to the logo of the Aurora Police Department. Unfortunately his picture is covered with a batman's mask, however it can be deduced that he is a middle aged male with a Southern American accent. He is employed as a detective by Aurora Police Department in the City of Aurora, Colorado. He is the brother of Jack Bishop from the second game. John gets very anxious when near the animatronics, causing him to hyperventilate and hear his heart pound. John also possesses knowledge on how to use lockpicks.John Bishop graduated from an unnamed police academy and was subsequently employed by Aurora Police Department. His first case was a call to intervene in an incident in which a gunman had broke into the house of Scott and was threatening him, his wife and child. Both Scott's wife and child were killed and Scott himself was injured. John was not able to prevent the gunman from escaping and suffered psychological damage as a result, which resulting in John developing amnesia and losing all memory of the incident. As Scott was recovering in hospital in a coma, John attempted repeatedly to gain access to his ward in order to question him. After Scott recovered John had to be forcefully ejected from the hospital after trying once more to interrogate him. The hospital intended on suing Aurora Police Department and having John dismissed, however the results of the lawsuit are unknown although it is clear that John was not fired. Unknown to him, Scott had developed a revenge against John as he blamed him for the death of his family. John begins in his office where he is woken from sleep by a loud noise. He ventures to the Control Room in order to restore the power to the building, at which point he is attacked by an animatronics. He then wakes for real by Scott calling him on the phone in the office. Scott informs the player that they have been locked inside the building by Scott as revenge as Scott was involved in one of John's old cases. He has locked the player in with his animatronics that will attempt to kill the player if they can. The player is tasked with putting together the relationship between Scott and John and escaping the building alive. John is able to use the Tablet to access the security cameras around the building which can be used to track the locations as any roaming animatronics, along with a flashlight. The Tablet can run out of power, and will need to be recharged using the charger in Ben's Study. He is able to sprint, crouch to hide under desks, and use lockers or closets to hide in.)
