"Uh, I think the name was... Protomimics or something like that."
Protomimics has not been given an official name; as such, this name is purely conjectural. However, it will be used until an official name is released. |

The Protomimics are trash animatronics made with The Mimic's parts in Murray's Costume Manor. They first appear in Five Nights at Freddy's: Secret of the Mimic as minor antagonists.
Physical Appearance[]
The Protomimics have a number of different appearances, often appearing incomplete, also appearing lot shorter than the original Mimic. They appear to be made up of mis-matched animatronic parts, often having an extra limb, or mis-matched build.
History[]
The Protomimics were likely designed and created by M2 some time after it began to mimic the personality of Edwin Murray following its attack on him. Part of this mimicry would have been to replicate Edwin's ability to create endoskeletons but M2 however lacked Edwin and Fiona's gift for designs, causing the protomimics to be crafted out of refuse and junk that could not efficiently function. Strangely, despite how rudimentary these appear they all share the same purpose to serve M2 and attack Arnold likely indicating that M2 used its own code to create their operating systems in a similar way that M1 shared its code for M2's creation. Their name also heavily implies that they have mimicking functionality.
The Protomimics only appear in the True ending. In the Pizzeria, some of their parts can be seen inactive near the Computer. Later on, after running the Cradle.EXE program, burning the whole building down, they can be first seen panicking in a collapsing room during the elevator ride. They can be seen again after opening the gate past a server room during the final Mimic Chase, with the first one falling from the ceiling. The Protomimics soon swarm Arnold, causing him to run in the intended direction of the chase. In the lava room, many of them can be seen crawling the walls. Even after the Mimic "falls" into the lava, the Protomimics chase Arnold until he arrives to the vehicle to the Retail Showroom. In the burning showroom, they can be seen falling from the walls and running around in fear. In the parking lot, they surround Arnold before he gets into his car, to which some of the Protomimics are latched onto the car before being ran over.
Trivia[]
- Protomimics can sense fear and attempt to escape the building in the same way as humans do when their life is in danger.
- Two of the Protomimic designs have paper plates for faces, reminiscent of the Paper Pals seen hanging on the wall in FNAF 1 and also featuring as characters in FNAF World.
- One of the Protomimics has M2’s jaw inside it’s chest.
