sse employee said hmm we need more diversity, any ideas? and someone stood up and yelled LETS MAKE ALL THE VILLIANS PART OF A MINORITY GROUP and then everyone cheered
credit to @phoebified for alerting me to this and making me go do my research!! i mostly related sĂĄmi gĂĄkti to having square shapes around the neck bc i mostly saw sĂĄmi men around the karesuando/kiruna area (where my family is mostly from) and didn't really see these open V shapes much. they may also have been covered with shawls when i wouldve seen them.
besides what ive put in the pic, its also worth noting that sĂĄmi culture includes a traditional singing style called joik (has different names in different sĂĄmi languages) which is very well known in scandinavia. so the fact that she deals with music may or may not also relate to the image of "mysterious" indigenous music.
"katja is cold and mysterious" (sso website) and ofc an evil villain - not appropriate traits to associate with an oppressed indigenous people in the global far north (icy and cold and scary).
this part is not related to sĂĄmi design influence, but it's also interesting that katja is albinism coded (ableist stereotype in villains) which also wasnt something i really thought about until it was pointed out ("fictional girl with white/grey hair" was my initial reading). and i also didnt really pay attention to the fact until just now, that her horse mortifa is blind, which also ties back into both albinism and ableism. blindness, especially white or clouded eyes as mortifa has, as a disability in itself shouldnt be treated as "ooh spooky" or evil. we do have a positive representation blind character in sso in rania, as well as a few positive or neutral characters with glasses, and at the end of the day we do want all kinds of representation - i want to see my own disabilities and traits in both good, bad, and neutral characters - but i do think its notable that the horse with blindness is tied to the albinism coded character and that they're villains.
feel free to add on any replies to this, i'm not in any way an expert on sĂĄmi culture (just casual knowledge) nor on albinism.

YAPPING SESSIOOONNN
âAnother Davidâ FNAF Theory (scroll down for TLDR)
The premise of the âAnother Davidâ FNAF theory is the belief that Gregory (otherwise known as âGGYâ) was SELECTED purposely and made into a mimic follower to replace âDavid Murrayâ from the Tales of the Pizzaplex.
To understand why this is the case, a short summary of the relationship between David Murray and the mimic is required. To put it simply, David Murray is the mimicâs purpose. We learn this through the main conflict of the book, âthe mimicâ, when Edwin Murray (the creator of the mimic and father of David) made the mimic in order to keep David Murray occupied in his fatherâs absence. This allowed Edwin Murray to neglect him in order to favor his work at Fazbear entertainment and provide for the both of them as a single father.
After Edwin created the mimic, David immediately fell in love with it, playing with it every day. Most notably, David would draw with the mimic and even taught him his own form of sign language as Edwin didnât give it a voice box. During this time, the mimic did not display any violent behavior towards anyone, in fact, it only reflected Davidâs compassion. The mimic would even make childish mistakes like going into Edwinâs study to steal costumes to dress up with David.
However, this all came to a halt with Davidâs sudden death. The boy was struck by a vehicle when he chased a ball into the rode. As a result, Edwin fell into a depression and the mimic became confused. The mimic, that was created to take care of a little boy, suddenly had no one to entertain.
One day during Edwinâs mourning, the mimic came up to him timidly. It brought its robotic arms to its face and ushered a scooping motion. Edwin recognized this as Davidâs invented form of sign language and understood the mimic was asking for ice cream. A treat both the mimic and David adored. This lead Edwin to become enraged upon seeing the mimic copy his late son, and unintentionally taught it its first seeds of violence by bashing it on the ground with a metal pipe.
Because of this, the mimic becomes infused with Edwinâs agony as well as his violence. While the mimic learned the seeds of cruelty that day, he never truly forgot the love that David taught him.
As the first paragraph states, Gregory became a follower to replace David for the mimic. This is implied heavily throughout the books and items in the games. First and foremost, Iâd like to make it clear that the mimic is capable of experiencing emotion. We see this in the sticky note room where he indulges in playful drawing as well as learning.
In binary code, the mimic asks why he exists. This is a clear example of his consciousness developing through interactions with humans, and in turn, itâs an example of him developing feelings and emotions. One prime example of this is when he associates words like âgoodbyeâ with being sad (he draws a sad face next to the word) and âHelloâ with being happy (happy face next to the word). He also has a strange sense of possession, using words like âmineâ and âmyâ in many of his drawings.
Itâs also important to note that he only does this when his handwriting gets better, meaning that, like a child, he is slowly assigning meanings to these words instead of just writing them. He is able to establish scenes, and images, depicting what simple vocabulary truly means to him in his own creative way. This is unlike an emotionless AI.
With that established, we need to compare Davidâs characteristics with Gregory. David, while being four, is described as being tall for his age (a little over 3ft). Additionally, he has fair skin, brown messy hair, and dusty freckles on his face. He loves to play and rough house, leading him to sometimes get himself in trouble because of how reckless he can be. For his age, heâs extremely intelligent as he manages to develop an entirely separate language to communicate just for the mimic.
When compared to Gregory, their personalities are basically the same. The same can be said for their appearances too as, while Greg is canonically 15 years old, heâs 3ft in the code. The TFTP books even point out that Gregory is unusually short and childish in appearance. During the chapter âGGYâ, Tony makes a point to describe Gregory as being a âwide eyed kidâ and the smallest in their class.
Gregory too also displays energetic behavior and heâs artistic similar to David. He loves to draw and we see some of his pieces throughout ruin. It is also implied that Gregory did some of the graffiti in ruin as one of the vandals signed their name as âGREGâ on a garbage bin.
(Side note: I donât believe Gregory is the only graffiti artist here either. The mimic also had an interest in drawing and there is a suspicious graffiti art that reads, âHe was OUR superstar.â. Perhaps this was made out of anger towards Freddy as Freddy was the reason Gregory escaped (discovered by @dasketcherz on twt and tumblr))
Itâs not just their likeness that is important here either, rather, the way Gregory is treated by the mimic is way different. Vanessa as a mimic follower was acquired through connivence. This basically means she wasnât targeted, but she put herself in a position that made her a viable target.
However, through conversations in the Scott games files, we can see that Gregory was chosen and intentionally targeted. While originally the Scott games conversation was thought to be Vanny and Afton communicating, we know now that it was the mimic asking Vanny to choose a target to kidnap and convert. This target was revealed to be Gregory later on in the book âGGYâ
Logically, there is no good reason to purposely acquire a child to serve you when you can instead acquire adults who will have an easier time following orders due to their dominant role in society. Truly, there is zero benefit in possessing a child purposely to gain knowledge unless gaining knowledge isnât the mimicâs only goal. If anything, having a child obey you would be a hinderance due to the hoops you would have to jump through in order to keep them (law enforcement, parents, more resources dedicated to helping kid). However, obviously, this was a hindrance the mimic was willing to take.
Once you make the connection between Gregory and David, all of the mimicâs planning makes sense. He never intended for Gregory to be a normal follower, he wanted Gregory to be his friend. This is even directly stated in the books when, The mimic, disguised as Gregory, edits Tonyâs paper about GGY. He changes it to state that âGGYâ was âthe wizards most favored apprenticeâ with the mimic being the wizard and Gregory being his favored apprentice.
So many illogical happenings become solved by the mimic loving Gregory, like, why did he allow Gregory to attend school? Why did he let Tony and Ellis be his friends for 6 months? Why did he let Gregory go to therapy? All these questions can be simply solved by the fact that the mimic is trying to care for Gregory, but he has never been taught how.
We can also confirm why the 8 missing kids (excluding Gregory as he is the 9th) died. We know that Tony Becker is one of them, and considering the fact that any therapists who got close to the truth of Vanessa and Gregory got murdered too, we can say with close certainty that these children were friends with Greg. Similar to Tony, they got involved in situations they werenât suppose to, and the mimic decided they needed to be eliminated to protect Gregory. This might also be why Gregory was a fairly new kid in âGGYâ, he may have been moving schools to conceal his identity.
On top of Gregoryâs friends and therapists, thanks to the last therapy session, we know that Gregoryâs parents are dead. The details of their deaths are vague but they are referred to in the past tense, meaning they are no longer in the picture. Obviously, their deaths have something to do with the mimic as Gregory was forced to cover them up. With Vanessa, she was allowed to tell the truth about the abuse by her father as well as her motherâs death because it didnât relate to the mimic. Seeing as Gregoryâs sessions arenât similar means that the mimic obviously had something to do with their demise, implying he went further in isolating Gregory so the boy became complicit in his role as David.
Thatâs not even all, we actually find Gregoryâs bed in the pizzaplex and itâs literally in the same room as the mimicâ lair. To emphasis why this is important, Vannyâs room is in Fazerblast. Sheâs way farther than Gregory to the mimic, like the mimic didnât care to keep a tight leash on her like he did for Gregory.
(Side note: Gregoryâs bed is personalized , unlike Vannyâs, he has little stars on his and itâs blue. Almost like the mimic took the care to try to find him a blanket he would like.)
There must have been a reason the mimic wanted Gregoryâs bed so close to him, like he was terrified of Gregory leaving his sight. David died because he wasnât supervised properly, perhaps the mimic is directly learning from Edwinâs mistakes. Additionally, BBâs world (the arcade machine theorized to be Gregoryâs princess quest keeping him trapped) is also in the mimics lair.
Despite being dead for over 40 years, the mimic still remembers David. This is made clear in the burntrap ending when the mimic curves his arm as if he was holding a plushie. This was noted as copying Davidâs behavior in the books as he too curved his arm to carry his tiger rock plushy. This means that the mimic still remembers AND copies David, meaning itâs not impossible for him to copy Davidâs love still.
With that established, we can even answer some unanswered questions about ruin. There would finally be an explanation as to why Vanessa brought Gregory down to the pizzaplex and how they didnât die trapping the mimic. Instead of coding MXES, Gregory was likely used as bait. He, being small enough to crawl through vents, lured the mimic into an enclosed area and when Vanessa finished setting up MXES, escaped through the collapsed vent that leads to the MXES system room.
We see that the mimic struggled to let him go due to the large claw mark on one of the vents walls, like he was reaching for the boy as he scrambled away. This vent is also conveniently where Gregoryâs backpack is.
What likely happened is that after the vent collapsed, the mimic became trapped but Gregory was so spooked by the event he immediately ran off, forgetting his backpack in the process. We also know for a fact that Gregory was in the mimicâs prison at one point because the mimic has Gregoryâs faz-talkie. There would have been no other way for him to get one of those besides Greg dropping it out of haste/fear.
Additionally, we can deduce that if the mimic dropped the elevator, he did it to lure Gregory back down into the pizzaplex. Once Gregory heard the elevator drop, itâs likely he would attempt to save Cassie, falling into the mimics hands once again.
To end this off, Iâd like to emphasize the mimicâs purpose. Yes, he was made to copy, but that wasnât his JOB, his job was to love David. We see time and time again in the epilogues that the mimic follows his âbreak heads and limbs â orders to a T, so what makes his debt to David less valuable. In the end, the mimic seems to be attempting to create what he understands as a family, and that includes David, his most favored apprentice.
TLDR: Overall, to summarize, the mimic either believes Gregory is David, or is attached to him because of his resemblance to David, and hence forcing him to become a follower against his will.
