The Lorkboard grows stronger. Tales from the Pizzaplex is a polarizing FNAF book series. I feel like more than any other FNAF …

Who are these characters đ
You forgot to tell us about the costume that the mimic wears can you make a video on it please
Of for the love…. CAN THE MATPAT DUMB TRAIN STOP?! NOT ALL THE BOOKS TIE INTO THE MAIN STORY!
15:23 when I hear this story, I always think about the FNAF 1 phone call where phone guy says âthey would likely see you as a naked endoskeleton without its costume onâ. Why does the mimic share that same trait? Am I to assume that ALL of the animatronics from ALL of the games kill us for that motive?
Itâs never mentioned specifically after the first game, maybe there is a connectionâŠ
I love the Pizzaplex and Frights books so Iâm always happy when theyâre discussed in a video!
14:44 Reasonable though it might be, "rabbit ears" might just be an assumption. According to others who obsess over these books, the story itself just says it has wires or antennas "like ears". They could be shorter or shaped differently from rabbit ears.
17:09 The Mimic can self repair, that's something that's talked about in one of the books
I'd say no only because the games and the books have separate lore.
For example.. The fate of Afton.
In the books he survives, not through possessing an animatronic, just he LIVES through the springlocks going off. Through sheer force of will.
While in the games, he dies. Completely, heart punctured and everything.
Hence why the mimic and glitchtrap in the books were just based off of him instead.
Another difference…
The original owner of fredbear's was not Henry Emily in the games, period. He would have been the new owner, with Afton. Hence his legal ability to make the Pizza Sim Location
BUT an original owner was mentioned only once, by Phone Guy in FNAF 2.
Whom I believe we did see in Midnight Motorist, he was… Orange Guy.
Much like the books he built the mimic, but it was to compete with another Restaurant owned by Henry and Afton. Which I believe only had Bonnie and possibly the other two. No freddy.
Reason he built it was due to his diner only using cloth suits, no robots.
So he focused on building the most advanced robot, but in doing so neglected his son who would be killed by Afton either accidentally with his car… OR on purpose to force him to sell.
Orange guy later destroying the mimic, not realizing it survived and was slowly fixing itself.
Reason I say orange guy built the mimic..
Color. Color has always been a big thing in FNAF.
Purple for Afton, etc.
When the mimic controls Helpi the eyes glow Orange.
4:55 is that a all hail king Julian reference??????!??!??!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!??!?!??!?!?!??!?!?!?!?
What is the ost that plays at the start?
Cool video, slight issue:
We know from the retro CDs that Gregory/patient 46 was the one who put Glitchtrap into the systems, NOT Vanessa, the AR emails are about Glitchtrap being put into the delivery service not the Pizzaplex. GGY shows this as well. The Storyteller ISN'T Glitchtrap, but rather just base Mimic1. Also, The Storyteller takes place a while before GGY

I think that the mimic from the books is a funtime animetronic think about it it's described as being covered in wires even from its eyes and it can regenerate parts of its body using other robotic parts just like Enered, Circus Baby and Molten Freddy
I feel like it's entirely possible that Tape Girl is already dead before her instructions flip! After all, when Glitchtrap is near, we hear the Tape Girl's voice, just slowed down and all that. If Glitchtrap is meant to be the virtual embodiment of this Mimic program, I feel that it's entirely possible Glitchtrap was simply mimicking Tape Girl, but saying new things. We see the Ruin Mimic do the same thing with Gregory's voice, after all!
12:07 was that just a visual reference or are you a fallout fan, also long time no see
Honestly a tiger rock animatronic would be cool
How many years have passed and Rye still canât say âbaobabâ right đ
I've recently been reading the books myself and wow I really have noticed how pushy the community is on how definitively correct their theories are.
I went in assuming the books were canon but over time the more I read myself the more I started to doubt it.
They absolutely CAN be canon but there is no way that it can be considered definitively so, there's too many quirks across them all that just don't entirely make sense.
It's evidently clear imo that Scott intentionally meant for the book canonicity to be debated, and I really think everything in them should be taken with a grain of salt.
Overall, I actually think the community has confused me more than the actual series content itself. I'm thinking of stepping back from a lot of community spaces and sort things out on my own because I think things are just clearer that way and I get less bias problems that way.
It's also just more fun imo to work things out yourself.
I really regret taking so long to read these books myself lmao.
Itâs interesting that the mimic just following commands is the same reasoning the phone guy gives us in the early fnaf games as to why the original animatronics were stuffing people into suits. They see the security guards as endoskeletons outside of their suits and just automatically stuff them inside~ :3
I LOVE how the cat seems to pay attention as if he liked the FNAF LORE
RYE CASSIES DAD ISNT THE KID FROM THE 87 BITE!!! I THINK CASSIES DAD IS THE VIRTUAL RABBIT THAT CHASES US DOWN TRYING TO PROTECT US FEOM THE MIMIC! He wasnât actually trying to be malicious! He was trying to save us from the technology. Idk this theory has been in my head for days and the âthis looks familiarâ comment to the Bonnie mask and all the rabbit symbolism with Bonnie gone just struck me.
He was never trapped in the robot because we know the robot workers are like a hive mind. Heâs all the workers heâs the system. The system she had to breach.
1 hour gang
âNarcissistâ is a term specific to people with NPD , Narcissistic Personality Disorder, and is not the same as being Egotistical, itâs both further stigmatising people with NPD and armchair diagnosing so maybe just stick to âegotisticalâ or âself centredâ next time, loved the vid as always
Jeremy did not slice his face off, lol lay off the copium.
What if the MXES system we see in the basement is our tree. The MXES system is shown to interact with every animatronic in the pizzaplex, so if you uploaded a mimic feature that would intensify their negative features then it would very easily be able to spread and bypass the security features, because it's a part of the security features, like viruses infecting immune cells, the virus gets ignored because the immune cells aren't meant to get infected, just how the mimic virus would be able to bypass the security system, because it's looking for threats outside of itself.
My idea is that the motherboard with the mimic virus on it was uploaded into the VR game and hooked onto information that would further it's violent agenda, the information about William Afton. From there it hooks it's way into the heads of people that it can use. From there it is delivered into the V.A.N.N.Y network and begins to breakdown the security nodes getting the attention of the MXES system, the mimic virus now infects the MXES system and furthers its influence to the rest of the pizzaplex, acting like a parasite that lives on the violence it spreads to others.
It will see the human employees as a threat as they are not as easy to infect as the robots and kills them all, replacing them with much more controllable security bots. Leaving Vanessa alone because it knows it can control her, so any human jobs or maintenance won't threaten it. I'm not to sure about Sun, maybe he literally doesn't have any coding that could lead to violence, but if the Freddy in the first game was a prototype it would explain why he hadn't been infected if the other Freddy acted like a spoiled diva. Roxy's self-absorbed attitude, Monty's aggression and Chica's gluttony can all be excused as quirks of the character by Fazbear Ent, but Freddy stealing from children would be a huge no-no, because why buy merch if it's just going to be taken from them. Sure there's the camera's but that's just one item not basically any merch. So they quickly shut this Freddy down and put in proto-freddy temporarily until the original freddy is "fixed".
But anyways, It would also explain why the MXES system is a rabbit, it's influenced by the mimic virus. And just one final thing on burntrap, I'm kinda thinking that the mimic was burntrap, William Afton is dead-dead, but the endoskeleton of the animatronic may still be in the basement and it uses it as a new body. Why not use one of the new exoskeletons? My first theory, is that each of them has a blank AI installed that would interfere with the mimic's ability to do what it wants, my second theory is some sort of twisted admiration, it admires the violence that William performed and wants to become like him.
This would put an entirely different context to the burntrap ending in security breach. It's not William Afton coming back for good ol' round 216, it's the mimic, in the body of the man it admires most, desperately trying to kill and control the parts that have gotten loose. The mimic doesn't have control over this proto-freddy and doesn't want Gregory to live as a witness to its existance so it tries to kill two birds with one stone, get control of this freddy and murder Gregory.
If this is true it's another easy explanation as to why this endoskeleton looks so different in ruin, compared to in the books. It's a completely different endoskeleton, and as for the difference between it in security breach and ruin, my guess is it probably got enough of a rebuild from Vanessa before she escaped to continue rebuilding itself.
Anyways that's just my idea, thought it was interesting!
FNAF is in a NEW ERA. FNAF 6 ENDED the old characters, arcs and lore. We now have new enemies & I love that.
This means nothing is taken away from the PEAK FNAF 6 ending, where Henry literally cooked Afton.
1:39 Did they just drop a meet the grahams reference? đ
Black kitty is so baby this episode đđ
Knowing a character with my name kills himself doesnât help with my mental health
MIMIC
MMCII = 2102
MCMII = 1902
that friggen monty story from the tales reminds me of those creepy stories of slenderman followers.
could it be possible that the mimic learned that the head of these "endoskeletons" (which are humans) make the job of ripping off the limbs harder and the mimic is simply making an adaptation to the programming that allows it to efficiently immobilize the body by ramming the head into the wall before it gets to work on ripping the limbs off? after all you cant fulfill your programming if enough resistance is met that could result in damage to motor functions that would make it impossible for it to do its job. essentially what im asking is, could it be possible that its developing self preservation as an adaptation for long term efforts towards its singular task.
Do we know how much control Scott has over the books? Because I feel like that would clarify whether certain book details are important for understanding the games or not.
I think Austintatious proved the existence of the Tree (to an extent) in his theory video)
His old theories he only uses info from the games and in the new theories he only uses info from the books what a long way weâve come đ
"chat, lorkboard is short for lore corkboard btw, i'm using slang" /ref
One of the interesting parts of the tales books is we have both the storyteller AND GGY. Each of them have influenced the animatronics (Storyteller cranking up their personalities, but they have also been hacked into by GGY. So even without Vanessa, we have two instances of tampering.
Itâs one of the reasons that I always end up back on the branching Mimic idea. Itâs a computer program. Every time you copy it, if you donât delete the original, you now have two programs that are able to learn, and they are going to be learning different things. And if they arenât in constant or at least routine connection to one another, they canât reconcile and combine their data to become whole again.
So, I think the Storyteller is distinct from Glitchtrap. Storyteller might predate Glitchtrap (I.e. it might have created glitch trap as part of its âmandateâ of creating new stories.) Part of the âstoriesâ of Fazbear Ent is all the murder stuff. They not only had games but also the role play area. So an AI tasked with creating new stories, given all the information, would try to create a ânewâ purple guy, to make sure he does come back, like he always does.
The storyteller is kind of a puppet master that creates other AI to play out these stories. It creates Glitchtrap, and either creates Vanny, or Glitchtrap is able to do that himself. Same with GGY. Every human that gets uploaded with an AI would have a different one, especially since a brain canât really be networked the way computers are. Each AI will be on its own, except for external forces (which is why Vanny âtalksâ to Glitchtrap).
The storyteller being a proto-Glitchtrap could explain things like the whole Monty/Bonnie thing. We see an older model of Chica, and upping Montyâs aggression could be why he went out and took out Bonnie. The storyteller was just telling stories. Jealousy, murder, mystery, unchecked ambition. It was trying to do some Shakespearean tragedy in the pizzaplex.
Eventually GGY and Vanny bring Glitchtrap in to try and âtellâ the story of Burntrap. And the storyteller might have made some tweaks to keep the story interesting. What if Vanny was possessive of Glitchtrap? What if she was so threatened by the wizardâs favorite apprentice she found a way to break him out of GGYâs control so she would be the only partner?
In D&D terms, Storyteller is the Dungeon Master while Vanny, GGY, Mimic, Helpi, etc are all the various NPCs and Glitchtrap is the BBEG, at least in Security Breach.
It sort of gets meta, in that FNAF as a franchise is a bit like the Storyteller. It needs to keep finding ways to tell new stories using these familiar characters and themes. Like Afton, it keeps coming back, no matter how many âfinal chaptersâ.
It could obviously go too far. Not sure people want to play âOops all Mimicsâ where every character, hero and villain, is just variants of the Mimic fighting itself at the behest of a more powerful variant. But I do think one of the ways to figure out the Mimic is to realize the implications of a sentient computer program. Like Vision in WandaVision, or Jean Grey/Madelynn Pryor in X-men â98, when something is duplicated or cloned, and both continue on leading new lives, are they the same individual? Which is the real one?
Been a while since I've watched one of your vids, and I just wanna say that I absolutely LOVE the background!
Mimic really went "MR BEEEEEAAAST"
I keep thinking that the tales stories r not real events. Rather, another moment of âmaking lightâ of real events. Some things from the novels donât even seem realistic in the gameâs universe. Fnaf is layers of unrealities. & I think the stories r half-truths.
Hey whatâs the song from on time 14:50? I canât place Whare itâs from and itâs gunna drive me insane
What if the storyteller existed in the games, spread Mimic1, then Glitchtrap showed up and hijacked everything Mimic1 infected?
18:30 Rye, the Mimic, is still following its programmed orders in The Mimic story. As seen with David, the Mimic01 program observes and mimics whatever it sees. However, this time, it's Edwin who's being mimicked. Putting food in the fridge and hanging clothes in the closet would have been things Edwin would have done, and what was the last thing the Mimic saw Edwin do? VIOLENTLY BEATING IT, The Mimic is seemingly fueled by "agony and violence" as a result of it trying to be a guy who did a âviolent actâ while in agony.
Wires out of the head and going down the back? Sounds like the VR training endoskeletons.
When I read tiger rock I made a connection to fnaf 4 and how the Fredbear plush is on flowers
Wait first you had Jeremy being the father of the girl from ruin, but now you say he is dead?
Itâs very important to mention the reason Edwin Murray has tiger rock PTSD is because the plush David carried as a child (and the plush the Mimic simultaneously recreated) was a white tiger. Because they lived in a dingy warehouse, Edwin also built a white tiger head and attached it over Davidâs bed if I remember correctly, so the Mimic1 program still remembers its original mimicking of David, even after decades of time and so much new information added to it.
