The S.T.A.F.F. Bots are employee robots made by Fazbear Entertainment LLC for Freddy Fazbear's Mega Pizzaplex. They first appeared in Five Nights at Freddy's: Security Breach.
Physical Appearance[]
While all S.T.A.F.F. Bots vary in color scheme depending on their role, they all share the same basic design. A S.T.A.F.F. bots sports a white, ovoid-esque head, with cutouts for two white eyes with black irises; two ovals are placed on the sides of their head. A light gray, pointed decal is placed under each cutout, and a segment runs through the middle of the eye sockets. Their faces also appear to have peach pink blush circles, below their eyes. Their torso is composed of a singular, segmented metal spine, with a chest suit piece, fitted with buttons, covering half of it. The word "STAFF" is painted on the back of the chest piece, and two wires poke out of both sides of the chestpiece's lower half, which connect to their respective arm. Spherical shoulder joints connect the arms to the torso, the upper half of the arms are bare, and while the lower half is covered by a forearm suit piece, the arms end in three-fingered hands. A cylindrical waist connects both halves of the S.T.A.F.F. bot, with lights on the sides. The lower half of the S.T.A.F.F. bot is made up of one singular piece that tapers outwards, ending in two wheels.
Functionality[]
S.T.A.F.F. bots perform jobs normally done by humans around the Pizzaplex, and can be seen working as waiters, security guards, and janitors. Most of their variants are passive, and will not attempt to hurt the player. However, Alpha/Nightmarionne S.T.A.F.F. bots will attack the player on contact, while Security Bots will alert nearby animatronics to the player's position by sounding an alarm. Cleaner Bots also alert animatronics, but only if the player gets in the way of the cleaning arm. If there are no hostile animatronics nearby, the alarm may cause one to teleport one near the player.
Types[]
Security Bots[]
- Main article: Security Bots
The Security Bots patrol Freddy Fazbear's Mega Pizzaplex during the night. These S.T.A.F.F. Bots are the most common throughout the game, and follow set patrol routes, occasionally stopping and performing a full turn before resuming their rounds. Should Gregory come within the beam of light, the Security Bot will jumpscare him and sound an alarm, alerting nearby Glamrock Animatronics to his position. In the Sewers below the Pizzaplex, a withered version of the Security Bot (not the Nightmarionne ones) is present, called Sewer Bots in the game files.
Map Bots[]
- Main article: Map Bots
The Map Bots are S.T.A.F.F. bots who are employed to hand out maps to customers. They have a habit of jumpscaring Gregory, though, this will not alert nearby animatronics. Instead, they will follow it up with a request for him to take a map, no longer jumpscaring him on sight.
Mop Bots[]
- Main article: Mop Bots
The Mop Bots clean up around the Pizzaplex, hence their name. Unlike the other S.T.A.F.F. Bots, they are completely white.
They either stand still or roll around slowly, sweeping or mopping the ground as they do so. If Gregory comes too close to them, they will look at him and signal him to move away. Like the Security Bots, if Gregory gets too close to them repeatedly, the Cleaning Bot will sound an alarm, alerting nearby animatronics to his location. If Gregory is crouching, they cannot detect him.
Party Bots[]
- Main article: Party Bots
The Party Bots are S.T.A.F.F. bots that stand in front of the entrances to certain attractions.
If Gregory has a Party Pass, they will dance around on the spot as the game prompts him to give it to them, and they will promptly disappear after receiving the Party Pass. If Gregory doesn't have a Pass though, they will stop him from entering the attraction they guard.
Alien Bots[]
- Main article: Alien Bots
The Alien Bots are a unique variation of S.T.A.F.F. bots found exclusively in the Fazer Blast attraction. They wear a green cap with alien-like antennae. They carry standard issue Fazer Blaster laser guns.
Alien Bots will shoot Gregory when he is in range and attempt to destroy any flag captured by him. Alien Bots can be stunned by hitting them with the Fazer Blaster laser gun. Shooting the Alien Bots directly between the eyes will completely destroy them, earning Gregory Fazer Blast game points. Both stunning and destroying the Alien Bots will award Gregory with 10 points each time.
Nightmarionne or Alpha Bots[]
- Main article: Nightmarionne S.T.A.F.F. Bots
The Nightmarionne S.T.A.F.F. Bots or Alpha S.T.A.F.F. Bots are the vandalized counterparts of the regular S.T.A.F.F. Bots that resemble Nightmarionne, hence their name. They can be seen in the Sewers of the Pizzaplex and are the only S.T.A.F.F. bots that can directly kill the player, making them the most dangerous bots in the game. However, they are lethal only in the Sewers and act as Security Bots in every other encounter.
Comedy Bot[]
- Main article: Comedy Bot
The Comedy Bot is a S.T.A.F.F. Bot individual who can be found in the Fazbear Theater, where it will stand on stage and make jokes to the audience, also using hand gestures.
Magician Bot[]
- Main article: Magician Bot
The Magician Bot is a S.T.A.F.F. Bot dressed in magician's attire complete with a top hat and a red bowtie. It will occasionally replace Comedy Bot in the Fazbear Theater. There is also a non-functioning, damaged version of the Magician Bot in the Staff Bot Silo within the Sewers.
Driver Assist Bots[]
The Driver Assist Bots are S.T.A.F.F. bots employed to help guests that are too short to drive the Karts in Roxy Raceway. They sport a white color scheme with orange accents, and are immobile, due to being connected to the Kart itself and, thus, entirely lacking a lower half. The second segment of their fingers is colored purple, and the logo for Roxy Raceway is printed on their chestpiece.
The player can find the only Driver Assist Bot on a yellow Kart near the northwest stairs, though it is missing a head which needs to be found and repaired in order for the Bot to function again, thus triggering Roxanne Wolf's boss battle. In the DLC RUIN, a Driver Assist kart can run over Cassie, killing the player.
Instructor Bot[]
The Instructor Bot is a unique S.T.A.F.F. bot that is employed to explain the rules of Fazer Blast. They wear a vest with a lightning bolt with a bow tie printed on it, a cap with bear's ears, and hold a Fazer Blaster.
There is presumably one Fazer Blast bot for each team, but only the orange team’s bot is seen in-game. Their dialogue refers to the opposing team as "the orange-slash-blue team", so they may be a single bot reused between teams.
Pizza Bot[]
The Pizza Bot, also called Chef Bot in the files, is a S.T.A.F.F. bot who is employed to make pizzas via the Freddy Fazbear's Mega Pizzaplex Quick Delivery Virtual System. and is the only S.T.A.F.F. bot variant that can be fully controlled by the player. Gregory uses this to make a pizza to distract Glamrock Chica, who attacks it in the process. It is also one of the S.T.A.F.F bots that will not attack if the player gets too close.
It appears to share its color scheme with the Mop Bots, though it wears a toque and a visibly dirty chef's jacket from the attack.
Attendant Bots[]
A pair of Attendant Bots, also known as Circus Baby Bots in the files, can be found serving ice cream and other treats at Bonnie Bowl. Other than remaining at the cash aisle, they hardly do much. A broken version of the Attendant Bot can be found at the end of the Sewers as a part of the S.T.A.F.F. Bot family.
Their design and position are loosely based on Circus Baby, in reference to her ice cream-dispensing functionality mentioned in Sister Location.
Nanny Bot[]
The Nanny Bot is a female S.T.A.F.F. bot dressed like a nanny, with light blue hair. The broken version only appears at the end of the Sewers.
In the files, a fixed version is found but was not used in game. A broken version of the Nanny Bot can be found at the end of the Sewers as a part of the S.T.A.F.F. Bot family.
Server Bot[]
The Server Bot is a S.T.A.F.F. bot that is employed to serve food to people. The Server Bot wears a blue, orange and red striped shirt, they also wear a light purple and red cap with a red and blue propeller on it. A broken version can be found at the end of the Sewers.
A fixed model of this bot can be found in the game files, but the broken version can only be seen in the Sewers. In the tech-demo, there were server bots serving meals at El Chip's and wearing a large sombreros, implying that there were originally food delivery variants of S.T.A.F.F. bots. These bots were eventually reused for Five Nights at Freddy's: Help Wanted 2.
Worker Bots[]
The Worker Bots are a type of S.T.A.F.F. bots who serve as constructors for the locations within Freddy Fazbear's Mega Pizzaplex. Deactivated Worker Bots are seen in RUIN with blue helmets instead of yellow ones.
A Worker Bot also serves as an antagonist in the Fizzy Faz series of minigames in Five Nights at Freddy's: Help Wanted 2. Giving tutorials, making orders, and checking up on the player throughout the series of nights.
Mask Bot[]
- Main article: Mask Bot
The Mask Bot is a S.T.A.F.F. bot who is employed to hand out masks to customers. A Mask Bot delivers the Security Mask to Cassie, they have a habit of jumpscaring Cassie, though, this will not alert nearby animatronics.
Head Chef Bot[]
- Main article: Head Chef Bot
The Head Chef Bot is the main antagonist of the El Chip's level for the Food Prep level for Five Nights at Freddy's: Help Wanted 2.
Table Bots[]

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. |
The Table Bots are a group of five deactivated S.T.A.F.F. Bots found in the Staffbot Silo from the Sewers. The family consists of The Magician Bot, Nanny Bot, Server Bot, Attendant Bot, and the headless S.T.A.F.F. Bot. They are theorized to be a reference to a past group of characters, such as The Afton Family or Funtime Animatronics.

Two common interpretations propose that the Table Bots represent the Afton Family.
The second and least common interpretation of the Table Bots suggests that it represents Funtime Animatronics.

Scrapped Bots[]
"I repeat, the classic suits are not to be touched, activated or worn."
This article refers an idea or a list of content that has been scrapped out for various reasons. |
- There were some other S.T.A.F.F. bots planned to be added in Security Breach but ended up scrapped or left unused.
- A completely unused yellow S.T.A.F.F. bot variant (which bares resemblance to a crash test dummy) can be located in the files, these were presumably going to be somewhere in the Roxy Raceway.
- A completely unused green Alien Bot can be located in the files, most likely playing a part in Fazer Blast.
- A S.T.A.F.F. bot, called Caddy Bot, that was wearing a green apron, green plaid golf caps with a red bulb on top, and carry a green and purple golf-club bag on their back was presumably meant to play a role in Monty's Gator Golf.
- A S.T.A.F.F. bot wearing a light blue shirt with a pink collar, a white apron and a fry cook hat with a white and pink checkered pattern, and pink Pizzaplex logos on the backs of their shirts. They would've likely work in the various Kitchens in the game, this bot is called Fry Cook Bot
- A S.T.A.F.F. Bot colored with a pale blue & dark blue accents. Its torso is black & white striped with pink lines that act as painted-on suspenders, and it's cheeks & wires are also colored pink, this bot is called Mime Bot.

Trivia[]
- From the tech-demo trailer, there was a normal S.T.A.F.F. Bot working as the attendant of Bonnie Bowl. This was replaced in the final game.
- "S.T.A.F.F." appears to be an acronym, although it is never explicitly stated in-game what it stands for.
- In the games' ending credits, the S.T.A.F.F. Bots are said to have been voiced by themselves. Their voices are actually created with Cepstral or VoiceForge, free text-to-speech generator sites. The male variants use "David", whereas "Callie" is used for the female variants.
- Threatening to suspend Gregory's membership is the only instance in the entire game where a different text-to-speech service is used for the voices of the S.T.A.F.F. Bots, excluding various unused dialogue. Google WaveNet was used in these instances.
- There are at least 27 S.T.A.F.F. Bots in various states of disrepair throughout Freddy Fazbear's Mega Pizzaplex, excluding the sewers.
- Unlike the Glamrock animatronics, the S.T.A.F.F. Bots do not appear to possess any form of self-awareness. This is made most apparent by the Instructor, Comedy, and Magician Bots, whose dialogue makes it clear that they cannot tell that no humans are present, as well as Freddy's lack of concern for the headless Driver Assist Bot, despite his concern for the other Glamrocks.
- Some of the S.T.A.F.F. Bots' unused dialogue seems to imply sentience, however as it is unused, it likely doesn't mean anything, and may have been unused for this reason.
- However, Help Wanted 2 features S.T.A.F.F. Bots that appear sentient and capable of getting upset with the player, even going on strike at one point. This, however, is likely due to them being part of a virtual simulation.
- While they can give a jumpscare, they won't give a Game Over screen. However, in Help Wanted 2, they are capable of giving jumpscares and sending the player to the Game Over Room, specifically the level Salon: S.T.A.F.F Makeover in Backstage (FNaF: HW2) and the Fizzy Faz levels in Staff Only.
