M1, Five Nights at Freddy's: Secret of the Mimic

F10-N4, previously known as Mimic1 (M1 for short), is the deuteragonist of Five Nights at Freddy's: Secret of the Mimic.

M1 was created as experimental artificial intelligence in the late '70s. She was created by Edwin Murray to care for his son, David Murray, whilst Edwin worked after the passing of his wife Fiona. For yet unknown reasons, whether deliberately or by accident, M1 took on and perfectly replicated Fiona's character and mannerisms, becoming a robotic copy of her. After David's death she urged Edwin to create a newer robot that would replace his deceased son. After various failed attempts and arguments between the two, Edwin transferred M1 into a miscellaneous storage device, while he used her now empty body and programming as a base for M2. Some time after David's death, M2 began to copy and mimic what it had learned of David's behavior. Already under heavy stress due to Fazbear Entertainment's systematic sabotaging of MCM, the sight of a machine speaking with the voice of his dead son caused Edwin to snap and break M2 in a blind rage. M1 remained at Edwin's side, until M2 began to go rogue. Her program sent a log and some blueprints to Edwin for the "Cradle" through his computer, in order to have him construct it to keep M2 contained/safe, as well as keep others safe from it.

Edwin soon built and established the Cradle as the central mainframe for the first iteration of the M.X.E.S. security system called F10-N4. He constructed it in the basement of the Murray's Costume Manor factory near the R&D sector where he had been working on all his projects for Fazbear Entertainment and having it run across the entire factory, with M1's program being implanted as the software that controlled and ran through the system. However with Edwin still being mad at M1, he disabled all her communication with the main house, leaving her clueless to his and M2's whereabouts.

She displays a clear directive of making sure M2, or the Mimic, stays contained and preventing anyone from letting it escape or get its hands on the information of its creation. She hijacks Arnold's communications with his dispatcher and pretends to give him instructions, solely to prevent the Data Diver from leaving the building. F10-N4's program was installed for the security system of the factory in the form of a large box of hardware and servers resembling the M.X.E.S. machine installed in the sinkhole in the RUIN, and after she gives one final message to Edwin, she is heard deactivating as the factory crumbles and collapses around Arnold along with the Murray household.

Appearance[]

M1 originally appeared as a thin, lanky, shiny chrome endoskeleton with adjustable and extendable segments along the shoulders and limbs, sporting a battery box implanted on the center of her chest area with cables running along her body and a pair of eyes made from heated electric coils that can change color, in addition to possessing an exposed jaw with thin square teeth.

F10-N4, in her second reconstructed form, appears as a large "cradle"-like server box with various different cables and pieces of hardware running outward from her central mainframe through the security office and out across the factory of Murray's Costume Manor. She possesses multiple screens and hatches along her surface, with grids of yellow and red lights flickering across different sides of her structure. She resembles the future reprogrammed model of the M.X.E.S. security system that would later be installed in the pizzeria underneath the Pizzaplex in 20XX.

Personality[]

F10-N4 displays numerous contrasting personality types throughout the story. Arnold is first introduced to F10-N4 not long after arriving at the MCM location when she hijacks his communications with the Fazbear dispatcher and begins to mimic his voice, she picks up his speech pattern and sarcastic wit extremely quickly. Despite the occasional voice glitches Arnold falls entirely for the deception and follows along her instructions for him to upgrade the data diver. During the bad ending she maintains the deception of being the dispatcher and allows Arnold to leave after he hands over the data diver, however she shows no care for Arnold's safety considering he is soon murdered by M2 who was hiding in his van, a fact F10-N4 was likely aware of. It is currently uncertain as to why F10-N4 risks allowing M2 to possibly escape during the bad ending as her purpose and personal wish is to keep M2 contained. During the true ending Arnold learns the truth about F10-N4's deception and upon disobeying her instructions to surrender the data diver her personality drastically shifts from friendly helpful to nasty and scathing comments about Arnold such as calling him a "scared rabbit", an "obedient dog" and casually stating how M2 will kill him and stuff him in a suit. She continues to question Arnold's motives whilst using the dispatcher voice, this facade only ends when Arnold reaches the room housing the M.X.E.S. machine containing F10-N4, notably an image of the character of Sun from Moon.EXE displays on screens around F10-N4. When returning to the voice of Fiona she switches to a calm demeanor and speaks plainly to Arnold about her goal, she states that she still loves Edwin which is surprising considering her digital state. Found throughout audio recordings, logs and her dialogue during the true endings she displays a desperation for M2 to be repaired since she believes that a version of David can be recovered from it. It should also be noted that F10-N4 truly believes Edwin to still be alive and living in the Murray household which Arnold finds no evidence of, it is not certain if this is a delusion, lack of awareness to how much time has passed, or if she is correct and Edwin truly was present/listening in during Arnold's exploration.

From the home videos recorded by Edwin, F10-N4 is shown to have originally occupied the Mimic endoskeleton nicknamed M1. In this form she seemed very kind and compassionate, attentively and lovingly caring for David when Edwin was busy and even baking him a cake for his birthday (notably not the same one as the cake seen on another film, very likely implying the difference between the real Fiona and M1). Whilst very speculative, it could be possible that remnant played a part in her creation since Edwin himself could not pin down how he had created M1 so successfully and since M1 had never been intended to mimic Fiona it can be strongly assumed there is some aspect of Fiona's soul embedded within the M1 program and not just mimicry. Whilst not fully confirmed there is a potential dark side to her personality as M1 as she was the one who was supposed to go and fetch David for his birthday party which also seems to be the day he died since a room can be found with dilapidated birthday party decorations implying that David died before he could attend his party. This would strongly suggest that M1 was present during David's demise and potentially involved it or was at least somewhat negligent in protecting him. As M1 she seemed to lack the ability to question the actions of Edwin despite Fiona being very critical of his attitude towards David found in the movie reels. It is uncertain if this is meant to highlight an imperfect mimicry of Fiona or if this was an intended design by Edwin himself. Interestingly this restraint disappears when she is transferred to the M.X.E.S. machine and becomes F10-N4.

In the Moon.EXE game we are introduced to the character of 'Sun' who appears to represent F10-N4, this character is somewhat mysterious and seems to resemble an old crone/witch/hag living in a cabin in the dark woods similar to what would be found in a children's fairy tale. Sun presents the player (possibly representing M2) with a baby owl mask which allows progress past the Moon character. Before reaching Sun's home the player encountered a baby owl which must be rescued before progressing, later when asking Sun about this baby owl she states that it "flew away" but if you inspect the oven behind Sun it states that something is cooking that "smells like chicken", heavily implying that Sun has murdered the baby owl and is lying to the player about it flying away. Since Sun is so heavily linked with F10-N4/M1 this could very well point to her as the killer of David, however it is uncertain as to what would motivate her to do such a thing after caring for David for so long. It is also possible that since Moon.EXE is stored on Edwin's system it is being told through his warped perspective as a way for him to deflect the blame from his own negligence onto F10-N4. Much of Moon.EXE is currently up to debate so this interpretation of Sun's personality may be wrong.

Speculation[]

"I was the first! I have seen everything!"

This section archives a lot of theories and speculation, which usually occurs from pre-release media, or just things that are still unknown, so please keep that in mind while reading. The page will continue to be updated with the most accurate information as more solid evidence is supplied.

  • F10-N4 replicating Fiona implies that Fiona’s spiritual memories were infused in the M1 program, or the Mimic endoskeleton, when she died. In the latter case, it is possible that F10-N4 was separated from Fiona’s memories when she was uploaded to the Cradle - perhaps explaining her wider range of mimicries and her calculating nature throughout the events of Secret of the Mimic.
  • When the player visits Sun’s cabin in Moon.exe, the Baby Owl representing David is perched on the shelf - but after returning there, the stove is on and is said to smell of chicken while the baby owl is nowhere to be found; meanwhile, Sun says when questioned that the owl flew away. This seems to imply that F10-N4 either had a direct hand in David’s death or was responsible for it through negligence, and possibly that she covered up or was unaware of her involvement afterwards.
  • The masks in Sun’s cabin may represent mimicries that M1 has stored - she wears the Sun mask which represents Fiona’s mimicry, and owns Fredbear, Foxy, and Spring Bonnie masks which represent the mascots she has data for. As part of the good ending she gives the player (who likely represents M2) the Baby Owl mask, suggesting that in order to fix M2, F10-N4 injects it with her own data of David.

Mimicking Dispatch[]

"Arnold. Wake up. Get up Arnold."
"I found the location of another upgrade station in the Showrooms."
"You can get there if head back through the Welcome Show. That's the room where you entered the building."
"Check the monitor, I'm sending you a camera feed. Go there."
"Good job. You can reach the lobby from here."
"The lobby doors have been locked by some "showtime run errors," whatever that means."
"Look for a control station. You should be able to get those doors to open by restarting the Welcome Show program."
"Arnold, hey."
"What took you so long? Don't get lazy on the job, now. We need you to stay focused."
"Come back to the security office immediately. I found the location of another upgrade station."
"I am dying to know what happened in there."
"The system was flooded with alarms and alerts, and then it all stopped."
"I'm guessing you took care of it. Well done."
"Amazing. We'll look into it."
"But first, the system says the Data Diver was updated to include "Creator" permissions."
"I guess that means you're an artist now. Good job, I knew you could do it!"
"As for your real job. Your next target is the upgrade station in the demonstration theater."
"Check the map. You can get there through the workshops."
"Hey, Arnold. The system says you need a suit to get into the theater."
"Finally, you have access to the Admin wing. That's where Murray's office is located, and most importantly, the schematics."
"The best way to the Admin wing is through the warehouse. That's the big room you've been standing in front of all night."
"You can see it through that window. Guess you should've gone through there first."
"But hindsight is 20/20, right?"
"As always, try to keep quiet and don't draw attention to yourself. Do that and I am positive nothing else bad is going to happen to you."
"Until the next time something else bad happens to you."
"You found the schematics? Great! Get back to the security office right away! Time to wrap things up!"
"Head back to the security office."
"What's taking so long?"
"Arnold, is everything okay?"
"Check in soon."
"You're almost done."
"Don't forget to come to the security office. Then you can go home."
"Well done, Arnie. I didn't think you could do it. But here you are."
"That Data Diver has Exec permissions and you found the blueprints!"
"You made it the farthest, farther than I had expected. I can't believe it was you."
"Put that Data Diver in the inventory system. It will go right to where it's needed."
"Arnold, you there?"
"Just put it in the inventory machine. It's right there in the corner."
"Once you put Data Diver in the inventory system, you can clock out and get some rest. Go home."
"You've used it before. Don't pretend like you don't know how it works."
"What are you doing, Arnold?"
"It's locked."
"I'm going to have to keep it locked until you hand over that device."
"Then you can just walk right now, and head home."
"I really don't know what the problem is."
"You've been doing so well, all night."
"Good work!"
"A job well done."
"Head on out, it's over."
"I opened the garage for you. You can just hop in your van and drive home."
"You've done everything you came here to do."
"I don't know why you're still here."
"You're done. Enjoy your life."
"What are you doing."
"That area is off limits."
"Arnold, go back."
"Give me the Data Diver."
"Arnie, buddy. You're making a huge mistake."
"Don't you want a bonus, or two bonuses? You can have a day off."
"Don't do it."
"Think about what you're doing."
"You have made your choice."
"You are not going to make it out of here alive."
"Arnold. Why. Why would you come down here?"
"You are clever, but you need to stop messing with things you don't understand."
"I've protected you as well as I could."
"You should've given me what I wanted and gone home."
"You did everything else that was asked of you. Why the change of heart?"
"Why don't you trust me?"
"It followed you."
"It will catch you."
"I can not stop it."
"You should've done what you were told."
"Fazbear will send another. Maybe that one will help me."
"It can not see you in that suit. But I can."
"Why are you trying to come in here?"
"No entry."
"This area is off limits."
"Employees only."
"Awesome, glad to see you made it with here without any complications whatsoever."
"We did some digging to learn more about that bothersome endoskeleton that keeps relentlessly pursuing you."
"From what we can tell, it was designed to keep Murray's son entertained while Murray worked."
"It would mimic the actions of those around it."
"At some point, the endoskeleton was exposed to some sort of violence, the details of which are a little fuzzy."
"This "mimic" endoskeleton then copied that violent behavior."
"We came up with some great ideas on how to protect yourself."
"Unfortunately, we came up with those ideas before that last technicians were sent in, and they ended up with less than positive results."
"So, it seems like maybe distraction and avoidance are your best tools, as a direct confrontation will likely result in some lost limbs."
"The previous technicians considered it an honor to lose limbs in the service of their company, and I'm sure they would tell you that themselves if they hadn't died from blood loss."
"We expect you will succeed where they failed. One in three Fazbear employees has confidence in you, so go get them tiger!"
"You could've helped. If you had just given me the schematics, we could've fixed things."
"I thought you were different. I thought you might understand."
"But you're just like the others. The other technicians, the workers."
"They didn't listen, and it caught them all."
"Now it's your turn to play dress up."
"When he catches you, which one will he choose?"
"Who are you deep down inside?"
"Another worker bee? A bumbling bee, perhaps a busy bee?"
"In many ways, tonight has been a comedy of errors. A jester would suit you well."
"Or a bunny. Running from danger, scared and stupid. Searching for a hole to hide in."
"No, you did everything I asked up to this point. You were an obedient dog, a good dog."
"Then you bit the hand that fed you."
"Stop what you are doing."
"You cannot for me."
"I see through right through your simple shell game."
"Do not push me."
"How? I see you at the door."
"Where did you go?"
"Which one are you?"
"Without power, you will trap us both down here in the dark."
"You put us both at risk."
"Stop! I need that."
"Error..."
"Must... conserve... power."

Mimicking Fiona[]

"You give me no other option."
"Enter."
"And here you are."
"Despite the circumstances, it is nice to meet you face to face."
"It is... lonely, down here."
"You have questions, but there is no time."
"I'm almost out of power."
"You can still be useful."
"My communications with Edwin have been severed."
"Edwin abandoned us, he shut himself away in our home."
"Head to the main house, and active the communications sub-terminal."
"I have a message for him."
"We must convince him to repair M2."
"That is all that I want."
"If you do not, M2 will never stop pursuing you."
"Tell Edwin, I still love him."
"Entering: Stand-by mode."
"Edwin, it's me."
"It's been a long time since we had a chance to talk."
"I hope you're taking care of yourself."
"Knowing you, you're still trying to hold it all together."
"But, the company doesn't matter anymore. It's over."
"You need to let it go."
"I beg you. Put it on the side, and fix M2. It is not too late."
"You can stay up in the main house if you want to."
"But would you consider visiting every once in a while?"
"I miss you."
"But, I miss my child more."
"I watched him grow up, through this machine. I want him back."
"It's not too late to fix our family."
"Entering: Stand-by mode."
"That's right!"
"Oh no! That's not how the story went."
"A rumbly tumbly bear sang sweetly by a big blue lake."
"A wiley fox buckled swashes in his pirate ship."
"The clumsy chicken danced in the sunlight on the top of her coop."
"The bouncy blue bunny hopped through the forest down to the garden patch."
"An angry alligator was swimming in the lake."
"A pesky puppy played fetch by itself on the beach."
"Isn't that nice? So, what happens next?"
"A rolly polly bear sat down and offered a pot of honey. They ate with glee."
"Then a crafty fox sat down and started a game of chest."
"A clumsy chicken came and spilled her marbles. They had fun picking them up."
"A bunny hopped over and offered to play cards."
"An angry alligator came by and promised not to eat anyone. They had carrots instead."
"A pesky little puppy yapped and played fetch."
"They had so much fun! You remember what happens next?"
"A rolly polly bear joined the others and offered his honey, but then he spilled it all over them. Oh no!"
"Then the crafty fox came over and challenged all of them to a race, but he cheated to win."
"A clumsy chicken joined them, and they went out for ice cream. But she dropped all their ice cream. Oh no!"
"A bunny hopped over and offered to play cards, but they couldn't agree on the game. The bunny was sad."
"An angry alligator came by and promised not to eat anyone, but then he ate one of them."
"A pesky puppy yipped and yapped, she made so much noise that she gave everyone a headache."
"Oh no! What did they do?"
"The bear saw everyone arguing. The group yelled and gnashed their teeth, and it scared the bear and he ran away."
"The fox saw everyone arguing. The group yelled and gnashed their teeth, and it scared the fox and he ran away."
"The chicken saw everyone arguing. The group yelled and gnashed their teeth, and it scared the chicken and she ran away."
"The bunny saw everyone arguing. The group yelled and gnashed their teeth, and it scared the bunny and he ran away."
"The gator saw everyone arguing. The group yelled and gnashed their teeth, and it scared the gator and he ran away."
"The puppy saw everyone arguing. The group yelled and gnashed their teeth, and it scared the puppy and she ran away."
"This shocked all the friends, and they realized that anger didn't solve anything."
"They all started a band, and lived happily ever after. The end."
"The moral of the story is: that friendship is the real treasure."
"Now it's time for bed."
"Your parents love you."
"Hold on, someone's missing."
"David? Where's David?"
"Come out, come out where ever you are."
"There you are."
