It's done OMG it's finally done. Please show this post, love. I've worked on this for a year and a half.

RaF Timeline, 1-UCN

“Everything is left up to interpretation” aka. Afton Era.

RaF’s story is very makeshift and collaged together by what fnaf has presented to us and from what I can gather. There are a lot of things I changed and added mostly for storytelling consistency and because I didn't like what Canon did.

Any recent canonical conformations on lore as of 2023 will not be part of this timeline because this was constructed into final stages prior to that new info, and I really don’t want to have to rewrite parts of this timeline because of certain details being confirmed in 2023 or 2024.

Anyway, I hope this info is helpful when you read this.

Also each chapter will have a year marker, to help the timeline flow

Chapter 0, "Where it All Started," 1974-1975

Raf's story starts off with the grand opening of 'Chica's pizza parlor' in fall of 1974, this establishment is owned by the company 'El Chip Emporium' which was founded by Alfred Williams and Max Lane. Only a couple months after the parlor's opening, another diner-esk location would open called 'Fredbears Family Diner' owned by Henry Emily and William Afton. This location would have opened in the spring of 1975.

Most of the beginning of this story is pretty peaceful until the "disappearance" of Susie Lee's dog Milo.

William Afton, would discover a little something called Remnant.

Game appearances in chapter: none

Chapter 1, "Play Test" 1978

Once William discovers some of Remnant’s capabilities, he decides to see if he can harness it for his own means, specifically immortality, so he needs to get more from a bigger and better source. Chica's pizza parlor would close in the summer of 1978 due to the death of Susie Lee. William would use the parlor as a test if he could kill and get away with it, body found or not. He would finally do his first collection of Remnant in his own diner using the fredbear suit as a "capsule." Cassidy Henderson would disappear along with the fredbear suit, and neither would be found.

Game appearances in chapter: Scene of Susie and springbonnie.

Chapter 2, "Familiar faces, New friends" late 1978

Fredbears needed an expansion. At least William said it was needed. That is when we meet some new yet familiar faces, them being Freddy bear, Bonnie bunny, and Chica chicken. Fredbears would gain the rights to chica chicken by 'El Chip Emporium', but she is still owned by El Chips. A new face by the name of Foxy would be added for some extra entertainment. Due to the disappearance of fredbear, an older model of fredbear would be taken out of storage and was to be used until the official fredbear was found. This expansion would be very beneficial for fredbears, growing in popularity shortly after. Due to this, William grew envious of Henry's skill, so he decided to start his own business in hopes of proving himself superior to Henry. This expansion would have happened during late 1978.

Game appearances in chapter: none

Chapter 3, “Greatest show unearthed” 1979-1980

Afton robotics would be established, and the first location owned by the company would be created called ‘Circus Baby’s Pizza World’ which opened in the summer of 1979. Afton would have worked tirelessly to complete this project and this project would have animatronic attractions called "the funtimes" they were afton’s biggest project and his biggest failure (I'll elaborate on that later.), Aftons least favorite thing about working on his project was when he had to ask Henry for help. (Afton sucks at character design, so he needed help.)

While to many it appeared like just another entertainment establishment, for Afton it was perfect for him to continue his plan in collecting Remnant and his immortality project. This location would be a huge hit with little holding it back, except for a short time closed due to an issue with the springlock suit funtime bonnie, due to this issue he would be decommissioned, but other then that little stood in the locations way. As 1980 went by, 3 children seemed to just disappear, these three kids would be Rose Adam, Rodger and Matheew gardner. This location would come crashing down to a close with ̶T̶h̶e̶ ̶d̶e̶a̶t̶h̶ ̶o̶f̶ ̶E̶l̶i̶z̶a̶b̶e̶t̶h̶ ̶A̶f̶t̶o̶n̶ an abrupt gas leak.

Game appearances in chapter: Circus baby minigame "conclusion"

Chapter 4, "Domino effect" late 1981

The Afton Family wasn't perfect, far from it, and it always seemed one thing would cause the whole family to come crumbling apart. That event just so happened to be Elizabeth's death. This death would cause a massive rift between William and the rest of the family, specifically between him and his wife Michelle. Elizabeth's death devastated Michelle and learning that William's creation was the cause felt like a spear going through her heart, her pain and fear would boil and manifest into paranoia of the same thing happening to Michael and Joseph (crying child.) William and Michelle would bicker and fight until Michelle had finally had enough and wanted a divorce… she would never be able to go through with the divorce as she would be murdered in the night by william.

Game appearances in chapter: none, we'll technically in midnight motorist, the weird pile of dirt you can find is a reference I would use to what William did with Michelle's body.

Chapter 5, "You are the face of freddy fazbears pizza." 1983

William needed to start testing Remnants. He needed to learn what it could control and cling to. He also needs to know what a person can remember, and if they can function in a different body, it's all for his own benefit later. He would have tested the Remnant from the 4 kids that uh got yoinked at CBPW's on the funtimes. It was a failed success, he wanted to learn more about Remnant’s capabilities and he did learn more at a price of learning the souls remember his face, and have a bad reaction to learning all bodily functions are gone. it failed because the funtimes and the souls inhabiting them are aggressive towards him and not willing to obey him, he would get royally fucked up by them and would never come back down to the facility after that. Fredbears was all William had for a job and for his work. Jeremy Howard would have gone missing in September of 1983, and his two best friends, Gabriel Cooper and Fritz Simmons, would follow suit only a few days after. I think we all know who was responsible for their disappearances.

Game appearances in chapter: Foxy go-go-go minigame

Chapter 6, "Thank you for bringing us home." 1983

While William is off um murdering and doing Remnant shit, his last two family members are uh not doing too well, Michael afton has so much pent-up anger from the loss of his sister and mother, the serious absence of his father, and desperation for his father to just acknowledge him(both Liz and Michael wanted William to just love them. Dad issue duo.) He began to torment his younger brother. Joseph Afton (C.C) is too afraid of his own home because of his brother's torment and his father's rare mistreatment and neglect. Joseph began to attempt finding comfort in his 'friends' as well as a being of his imagination created to be a placeholder for his sister and mom. As Joseph's birthday drew closer, Michael's torment got worse. It got bad to a point. Joseph was scared to go home and scared to go to Fredbears. Everything got even worse once the Nightmares started.

Game appearances in chapter: none

Chapter 7, "FNAF 4" 1983

Joseph began to have trouble sleeping and even when he could, all he had were Nightmares, the Nightmares were all about him being trapped in his room as nightmarish versions of his 'friends' all hunted him down. These nightmares happened for a while but only became frequent 5 days before his 10th birthday. His birthday would not go well. He would be tormented by Michael and his friend again, this time with a dark twist. I think you all know where this is going. Child put in Fredbear's mouth, hahaha oh shit kids head go smoosh, and dead. Joseph would die but not pass on. He would instead haunt his 'friends' as well as the fredbear plush and would begin to torment Michael in his dreams as revenge. Fredbears would close due to this incident.

Game appearances in chapter: FNAF 4 with slight design, story, and mechanic changes

Chapter 8, "The safest place on earth" early 1984

The Springlock suits have been discontinued, and Fredbears was rebranded to be ‘Freddy Bears diner’ with the side stars now the main attractions. This would be a relatively peaceful time for fazbear entertainment, but It would be kind of short, mostly due to fazbears' rep. at this point. I mean no it was fine, no murder or disappearances or anything ̶I̶'̶m̶ ̶n̶o̶t̶ ̶b̶e̶i̶n̶g̶ ̶p̶a̶i̶d̶ ̶o̶f̶f̶ ̶b̶y̶ ̶F̶a̶z̶b̶e̶a̶r̶ ̶E̶n̶t̶e̶r̶t̶a̶i̶n̶m̶e̶n̶t̶ ̶o̶r̶ ̶a̶n̶y̶t̶h̶i̶n̶g̶,̶ ̶n̶o̶ ̶n̶o̶ ̶i̶t̶s̶ ̶t̶r̶u̶e̶ ̶j̶u̶s̶t̶ ̶t̶r̶u̶s̶t̶ ̶m̶e̶. The reason this location would close is because of the death of Charlie Emily…

Yeah no murders at all.

Game appearances in chapter: Security Puppet mini game and FNAF 2 Save him minigame.

Chapter 9, "A Quick Intermission" late 1984

Every murderer needs an accomplice, or at least that's what William believes. At this point in the timeline is when afton knew if he continued his “work” without help he would surely get caught, he needed someone that could help him and if worst comes to shove take the fall for him and he knew exactly who could be that accomplice. Henry Emily, William's long-time friend. With Charlie's death, William believed with what he had discovered. Henry would have to accept William's invitation ̶B̶l̶a̶c̶k̶m̶a̶i̶l̶. So William gave Henry a “job”, a job to go down to the underground facility (where the Funtimes are) and get some paperwork William had left behind down there, that said paperwork was all of William’s Remnant research. Even with Henry in his grief-stricken state, he still did what William had asked. He went down to the facility to get what William had asked for. Things would not go well for poor henry, he would find williams work and learn a bit too much and get fucking jumped by CB. He would survive the encounter with the work in toe, but he would not return the work to William. Due to this William would fear the worst and go into hiding.

Game appearances in chapter: none

Chapter 10, “New and Improved Freddy Fazbear's Pizza” early 1987

Fazbear Entertainment needed a fresh start, a new identity that was still recognisable but new, a new freddys establishment. This would be the location that would first adopt the iconic name ‘Freddy Fazbear's Pizza’ and would be the first location owned under the company Fazbear Entertainment. This establishment would be managed by Scott Adam (Phone Guy), and the establishment would have new and improved animatronics commissioned to and built by Henry Emily. This was the fresh start Fazbear entertainment needed, and this location is bound to stay due to it priding itself on high security in not only staff but in the animatronics as well. Now all we need is staff.

Game appearances in chapter: none

Chapter 11, “Job available” early 1987

Every establishment needs employees to function longer than a day. This chapter is short and just about Scott hiring employees, and especially one rather familiar sketchy fella.

Game appearances in chapter: none

Chapter 12, “They even let them walk around during the day” early 1987

Freddys was a huge success. Kids came from all around to see a place as wonderful and safe as this. The parents loved it, the kids loved it, everything was going perfectly. Until some complaints rolled in by the night security guard, at night the animatronics had a strange tendency to move around at night and especially to the office. So he was switched to the day shift, and another employee would take his place, a man by the name of Jeremy Fritzgerald.

Game appearances in chapter: none

Chapter 13, “FNAF 2” late 1987

A very long chapter, encompassing events happening during the nights of fnaf 2 and the stuff during the day that our player character doesn’t get to see. I can't explain everything so I'll simplify what it is you can expect in this chapter. All the events in the FNAF 2 game, the save them minigame from a unique perspective, 5 additional dead kids, Aftons crimes finally begin to catch up to him, THE BITE OF ‘87!?!?!, and the permanent closing of Freddy Fazbears Pizza (FNAF 2).

Game appearances in chapter: FNAF 2 with slight design and mechanic changes

Chapter 14, “An overdue apology" 1988

We now head back to the Afton house, now only having the eldest son, Michael Afton, remaining. He had been doing his best and been trying to get by while living in his childhood home. Over time, he had started to have these frequent nightmares, all involving these nightmarish versions of familiar animatronic faces. It seems that these are just nightmares until certain ones start popping up in real life, and over time, Michael realizes that these nightmares are being conjured up by his deceased brother Joseph, who is out for revenge. Over the course of five nights, Michael deals with these new nightmare animatronics while trying to reach out to Joseph and make proper amends, and It works…kinda.

Game appearances in chapter: FNAF 4 Halloween DLC but heavily altered

Chapter 15, “Another contender in children's entertainment” mid 1990

After many years of silence Afton Robotics has finally brought back their animatronics into the limelight with the new establishment “Circus Baby’s Entertainment and Rental”, with the unfortunate closing of Freddy Fazbear's Pizza this felt like the perfect time to bring new and old faces back into the childrens entertainment industry. This entire establishment brought a new light to animatronic entertainment, with the animatronics being rented out for private parties instead of just sitting on a stage and being open to anyone, this renting out decision made birthdays more special to the children, and put more money in the companies pocket. Things were going well until a new employee showed up.

Game appearances in chapter: none

Chapter 16, “FNAF SL” mid-1990s

‘WELCOME EGGS BENEDICT’

Michael had received a letter from his father about this new location opening called “Circus Baby’s entertainment & rental”. The letter told Michael to go and work at the facility as a night shift technician, and “free his sister” as afton put it. Now Mike really missed his sister (his whole family in general, well minus afton but you know) and out of loneliness, desperation, and some delusional hope that his sister may still be alive he did what his father asked. Now we're into the events of SL’s game, and most of it stays the same with the only change being some game events happening differently. This whole chapter ends with the whole scooping and “death” of Eggs Benedict.

Chapter 17, “You won’t die” mid-1990's

This chapter encompasses the experiences of Ennard through the week that they lived in Michaels' skin. we watch as their unity deteriorates as well as michaels body rotting away to a purple husk. It's an eerie chapter.

Game appearances in chapter: SL CN intermitions

Chapter 18, “BREAKING NEWS” late 1990

Afton is finally caught and tried for his crimes. We now wait on sentencing.

Game appearances in chapter: none

Chapter 19, “Fresh start” 1992

Due to the recent arrest of William Afton, Fazbear Entertainment (for whatever reason) decided to try again with a freddy’s location. This one would once again go by the name ‘Freddy Fazbear's Pizza’, smaller in size and with the older models now fixed and ready to perform for kids again.

Game appearances in chapter: none

Chapter 20, “Hello, Hello Hello?” late 1993

Freddys is open and ready for business now. All we need is a security guard. Luckily, we have our loyal employee Scott Adam ready to take on that responsibility. Chapter 20 is all about our dear phone guys last night shift, while he records messages for next week's night guard (he doesn't want to work for Freddy’s anymore, but he wanna get that check).

I think we all know how this is going so let's just skip to the end… He dies.

Game appearances in chapter: FNAF 1 office and phone guy messages

Chapter 21, “FNAF 1” late 1993

Mike is back, and he is a corpse. Our new Security Guard is our dear boy Michael Afto- oh shit I mean Mike Schmidt is here. Michael takes this job in hopes of finding his father and possibly freeing the kids (that's why he gets fired). The rest of this chapter is just FNAF 1 affairs, with the closure of this establishment happening shortly after Michaels firing. This would lead to a long period of radio silence from Fazbear Entertainment. Due to this, many believed they were no longer an existing company.

Chapter 22, “America’s most wanted” december of 1993

Shit Afton escaped.

He’s destroying the animatronics!!!!

Oh fuck he got springlocked…

Um…nevermind.

Game appearances in chapter: FNAF 3 night intermission minigames and spring lock scene

Chapter 23, “COMING SOON: FAZBEAR’S FRIGHT” sometime in 2023

It’s been 30 years since William went SNAP!, CRACKLE!, POP! And 30 years since Fazbear Entertainment vanished. Some fresh out of college dudes wanted to make a horror attraction dedicated to the horror stories of the Fazbear entertainment brand. They are not architects, nor are they professionals, so they just picked an old abandoned building and got to work. They fixed it up as best they could and then began a hunt for memorabilia from Freddy’s and neighboring establishments. They would end up getting contacted by someone who knows “things” about freddy’s, his name was Mike and he would end up helping the boy’s out with their whole Spooky house of freddy’s ideas.

Game appearances in chapter: none

Chapter 24: Part A, “FNAF 3” sometime in 2023

‘YOU’LL BE STARING AS… A SECURITY GUARD!’

Fazbear's Frights is almost ready to open, all they need to do is find a functioning animatronic and luckily they have a lead from an ‘anonymous’ source (*Loudly Whispers* It’s Henry), since they’ll be gone they’ll need a security guard to watch over the place. Mike volunteered to be their security, having experience in the field in all. FNAF 3 now begins. This chapter goes through all of FNAF 3, including the fire 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥. Mike escapes because he’s just that OP.

Game appearances in chapter: FNAF 3 and Good ending minigames

Chapter 24: Part B, “Balloons” sometime in 2023

What’s happening inside the establishment as it burns and while William is still inside? Well, the OG missing kids and the additional 5 dead kids vibe checking afton and get to pass on to a happier place, hooray🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉. William escapes, though, because he has cheats on. (Booo)

Game appearances in chapter: Happiest day minigame

Chapter 25, “Outside your window” sometime in 2024

Even with Afton dead (*Loudly Whispers* they don’t know he survived the fire) there were still threats roaming around (The funtimes, and the puppet who also survived the fire *Loudly Whispers* but they don’t know that yet either) so they need a plan, someplace to hold them and keep them in place so the souls can be freed…

Game appearances in chapter: none

Chapter 26, “Now Hiring at Freddy’s” late 2024

Fazbear Entertainment has opened up the opportunity for anyone looking to become a franchise owner and a manager of the person's very own Freddy Fazbears Pizza, (and make them money), so they sent out the news in the paper and with that action broke their radio silence. Mike and Henry saw this ad and took it as the perfect opportunity in executing their final stages of their plan, Mike signed up for the job application and got to work. Fazbear entertainment gave mike free rain over his establishment (they didn’t care what it is he did with it as long as it was for kids and made Fazbear entertainment money) so Henry and mike got to work on building there pizzeria and animatronic labyrinth trap.

Game appearances in chapter: FNAF 6 tycoon

Chapter 27, “FNAF 6” late 2024

This chapter is a big boy with a lot to unpack, and due to Fnaf 6’s significance and importance to Fnaf’s Afton era as a whole this chapter is cut up into multiple smaller chapters, just to make everything more breathable and cohesive. These chapters are simplified down, but just know there is far more that goes on here that I just can't say.

Game appearances in chapter: FNAF 6

Chapter 27: Part A, “You’re not who I expected to see…” late 2024

Monday…

A small establishment with little to it except some tables, plates, balloons, a ball pit, a duck pond, a sanitation station, and just Happy Frog on stage. We start the day, and it goes off smoothly, and now we go on to see what’s outside. Scrap Baby is the first one found outside, and the first one salvaged. 5 days left.

Chapter 27: Part B, “Thanks for letting me join the party, I’ll try not to disappoint” late 2024

Tuesday…

A larger establishment with far more for children to do, with arcade games and even a candy cadet (he’s kinda weird but he racks in money) and a bigger stage with more animatronics performing on it. The shift goes off smooth enough with slight disturbances but no danger present (thankfully). Let’s see what's outside today. Molten Freddy is the second one found outside and salvaged unsuccessfully… 4 day’s left.

Chapter 27: Part C, “Fascinating… what they have become” late 2024

Wednesday…

At this point, the establishment has grown exponentially since Monday, with attractions left and right, dual stages, and many entertaining animatronics for visitors to enjoy. With that, we head on into the shift. Oh shit we're actually in danger now. While it seems only Molten freddy is out for Mike, Scrap Baby is circling the facility but not attacking… yet. Luckily, Mike gets out of there quickly and efficiently and can head on into salvaging. Scrap Trap is the third one salvaged and salvaged successfully. It was quite an unpleasant surprise to see Afton, though.

Chapter 27: Part D, “I could hear you... breathing” late 2024

Thursday…

Mike tries his best to buy any and all animatronics that have or may have any connections to Freddy’s and its tragedies. Safety and security become a bigger focus to Mike with the pizzeria. He wants people to remember his establishment fondly even though it would burn soon. His shift is hell, with Afton now present all the animatronics are aggressive towards Afton. So not only does he have to do his task to finish his shift, he now has to avoid, deture, and control violent killing machines as well. He finishes his work and swiftly leaves onto salvaging whoever is outside if there is anyone that is. Scrap Ballora is the next animatronic found and salvaged. It's an unsuccessful salvage, but she's in the establishment now so… Task Failed Successfully?

Chapter 27: Part E “IT’S ME” late 2024

Friday…

Mike doesn't do much in his establishment at this point. He's just counting down to Saturday. He did buy a Black Bear named Lefty, I mean, 5 bucks is 5 bucks, after all. Anyway, onto the shift.

AAAAAAAAA-

Now onto the salvage.

Rusted Freddy (Golden Freddy) is the final animatronic salvaged, successfully salvaged may I add.

(Lefty is already in the building if you couldn't guess.)

Chapter 27: Part F “Fazbear Family” late 2024

Saturday…

We are just heading on into the shift, no Tycoon fun this time. Just the final shift Mike needs to complete. OMG, Mike's shift is hell on earth, all these violent animatronics scamping around the vents hunting him and Afton. As Mike finishes his work and is about to clock out, Afton makes it to Mike's office and attacks him. Afton has this egotistical speech, and then gets jumped by the Funtime animatronics. Henry does his little speech, the place is on fire, and everything is finally over. All the souls pass on to their happiest day, and Afton is finally dead.

Chapter 28 “An overdue greeting”

“DID YOU REALLY THINK WE WOULD NEVER MEET?…”

Time to meet your maker, Afton you son of a bit- uh anyway. This would be the point in the story where we would be introduced to Old Man Consequences, I know quite late especially since he is the Aus mascot but hey better late than never. He is this world's grim reaper and he is here to collect a run away soul. This chapter is just an intermission into UCN, but also a good breather after fnaf 6.

Game appearances in chapter: the burned down remains of Pizza Sim and 4th layer in FNAF world

Chapter 29 “Ultimate Custom Night”

This chapter is exactly as it sounds, Afton gets bullied by dead kids. This chapter is longer than it sounds.

Game appearances in chapter: UCN

Chapter 30 “leave the demon, to his demons. Rest your own soul, there is nothing else.”

We have finally reached the end of this era, and Cassidy and other souls finally found peace. Afton is dead and buried. Now all the poor souls connected to Freddy’s reside in a paradise where they can all live happily (the paradise world in question is fnaf world, look I love fnaf world I had to include it in my Au somehow.) It's such a sweet ending.

Game appearances in chapter: FNAF WORLD

Of course we know this isn't the end of Freddy’s, but it is the end of Afton so we can at least sleep easy knowing that.

We will head into part 2 of this timeline with “Failure to learn from the past, dooms you to repeat it.” aka the Mimic era. Which is from HW 1 onto (IDK that depends on how long Steel wool keeps the mimic around.)
