Phil

Phillip, AKA Phil, is a fictional fan-character who's story mainly takes place in the first two games. He was made by (suprisingly) an anon (anonymous user/ wiki contributor) and was first created in the later months of 2014.

Story/Backstory
Phil's family was a simple one. He had a slightly younger brother- with which sibling rivalry was certainly aroused-, an auto mechanic for a father, and a mother that worked at a local grocery store. Money was a bit of an issue at the time- although his father owned his own shop, business could get rather shaky at times. To say that they were poor wouldn't necessarily be true, but comfort was nowhere near the top of their list of priorities. Both Phil and his brother managed to get a decent basic education- courtesy of careful saving-, but college was a bit out of the picture. Still, the family managed to get along well.

Both Phil and his brother took an interest in their father's work at an early age, but soon Phil began to branch off into other areas of mechanical expertise. Frequent visits to the library earned him a basic level of knowledge of not only the mechanics of automobiles, but all sorts of what to him were incredible machines. Soon he was looking into the areas of hydraulics and motors- and for a period of time even found a particularly interesting book on the matter of robotics. That, however, would come to be a significant influence. Soon he was moving on from the simple ideas of machinery to what seemed to hold an even greater wonder- the world of robotics and computers- machines that could act on their own accord; machines that could almost think!... He certainly enjoyed reading, although the library was his main source. He didn't have a library card for the first few years, so he often made a habit of walking there and back weekly in order to access the plethora of information.. After a while, to say that he could manage to get there blindfolded wouldn't necessarily be false.

Now, this seems like a perfectly- or at least, somewhat average story. Unfortunately for Phil, things eventually began to go downhill as he and his brother were late in adolescence. It was a particularly nasty winter- and with medical costs lacking in affordability, a bad fever soon took his father for lack of proper medicinal treatment. This resulted in Phil's brother taking over the auto shop, whereas he went out to find another job- both to supplement what was left of his family and further dreams of college and a job with one of the big industries. This is where Phil came into contact with the Pizzeria known as "Freddy's" (to simplify the name).

Some of his mechanical expertise came into play almost immediately- however, it certainly wasn't in the most conventional way. There were all sorts of odd jobs to be done- and some didn't even have to do with the mechanical. Fixing lighting systems in vents- although why lights were needed in a vent was a matter of great confusion-, fixing the locks on the door to the "parts and service" room (apparently it kept breaking), and other things. Soon, however, he was finally given the main task of repairing and maintaining the animatronics.

Phil approached his work with a good ethic and little complaint, and often made to go above and beyond with his work. His intentions were a mixture of enjoying his job and hopes for a raise. For several years, he took a great level of care of both the restaurant and it's mechanical entertainers. In particular he often found himself re-assembling a dismantled Toy Foxy- recently having been referred to as the "Mangle" by some of the other staff. Phil himself rejected this name for the most part- to him it seemed a bit immature. He also occasionally asked to work on fixing the older models in the parts and service room- a request constantly denied, much to his chagrin.

As content as he was with his current employment, life had another twist to throw at him. It began one day when word had come around that yet another night-guard had disappeared. The manager of the establishment approached him with the possibility of doubling as a guard for extra pay- and seeing as the financial situation for Phil's family was already in a somewhat shaky state, he was in no state to deny.

His first night seemed uneventful at first- then the phone recording began to play. Of course, Phil himself didn't pay it much attention, assuming it to be some sort of strange joke left behind by a former guard. Unfortunately for him, this resulted in himself being caught off guard- and the rest goes without explanation.

After his untimely demise, Phil found himself not entirely dead- nor was he bound to the suit. Rather, he was simply left around as a spirit. His body lay buried in an unmarked- and unofficial- grave. He soon took to wandering the halls of the restauraunt- including later ones as well, moving on from one to another as they closed and opened again, still doing what he can to fufill his job which he could not continue in life.
