I know I promised myself I’d never theorize on this until the final chapter of Poppy Playtime came out, but after a recent conversation with my best friend, I think I have no choice but to share this with other fans. As we have learned more about Poppy and the prototype’s ā€œcomplicatedā€ relationship, the more the possibility that Elliot is indeed the prototype rears its head at me. I now have reason to believe that Elliot was killed off and turned into the prototype, and as many theorists have suggested he is now immortal. Perhaps a side effect to his secret immortality was memory loss. We’ve already seen that sometimes the experiments to convert a human into a toy occasionally leave the subject physically disabled, they never did perfect the formula. 
          	So the Prototype formally known as Elliot does not remember he was the founder of the company, but he still possesses his strong feelings and beliefs. He still loves his daughter Poppy and wants them to be together. He still cares for the orphans, even though it’s a twisted love at this point. Maybe the secret that Harley Sawyer mentioned was nothing more but a remedy to 1006’s memory loss. 
          	This concept of sacrificing memories for immortality isn’t uncommon in the Indie horror genre. FNAF basically spelled that out long ago, and game theory says Mob entertainment is reusing those same ideas.

Ok the more I think about this, the more I believe that the protagonist in Poppy Playtime won’t actually be able to save the surviving orphans, even with help from Poppy. I’m guessing that the orphans are in cryogenic sleep, since Poppy said the Prototype has them in his lab and they’re all asleep, the thing is though, since Playtime Co. has been experimenting on them for decades, and the only way to put someone in a cryogenic freeze is for them to already be dead. 
          If we defeat the Prototype, my guess is he’s going to activate a failsafe that will take the orphans off life support permanently, effectively killing them as well. All of Playtime Co. will die with him. 
          I know this is just a work of fiction, but so far the science doesn’t hold up that the orphans are still alive. After all, the Doctor said in his final moments that we saved no one.

Now I’m debating whether or not I should post an entire story about a short inside joke I made in 2019 about a supposedly secret intergalactic mission regarding Five nights at Freddy’s. 
          It had very little to do with Freddy in space, it was based on a How I Met your Mother joke called The SNASA
          (I’m pretty sure a good number of people remember that tall tale)
          I just changed the acronym to FNASA, the story involved making claims that they were part of a top secret government space program that partnered with Fazbear Entertainment called Fazbear’s NASA. It also involved finding a rocket ship made up entirely of spare animatronic parts. 
          It ends with the sentence 
          ā€œIf you’ve fallen for that story, my heart breaks for you but I’m sorry, you’re a Fnincompoop!ā€

I’ve been watching new Poppy Playtime theories about who exactly the Prototype could be. Mob has been very generous keeping the lore simplified, I am certain his identity will be revealed in the final chapter, whenever it arrives! 
          Now that we know Poppy was Elliott’s daughter and his dead family member died in 1960, at least a decade after the first Poppy doll was released, that’s got me wondering where exactly this living dolls ā€œresurrectionā€ resides in the long list of experiments and bigger bodies. 
          So far the earliest experiment we know of was in the early 800s digits and it involved an animal, not a person. 
          There’s a theory I’ve debated since chapter 2 about what Poppyā€˜s experiment number was, but now that I think about it, why would Playtime have created her successfully earlier than the rat experiment if they weren’t using humans yet? 
          I’m thinking of writing a theory on what number Poppyā€˜s experiment could be, and why she and 1006 are closely connected. After all, he did say that he knows everything about her at the end of chapter 4…

The more I watch videos of the ominous silhouettes of the Prototype’s body in Poppy playtime, the more I’m getting the sense that his full design is most likely going to look EXTREMELY similar to the Beldam/other mother’s final form in the movie Coraline. 
          You all remember that? Spider like legs, needles for fingertips and skeletal features, it’s a dead ringer for 1006! This is the only prediction I’m gonna make regarding the his identity, so yes this is my personal vote as to what he could possibly look like.

Okay, chapter 4 caught me off guard, tugged at my heart strings and constantly blew my mind! I felt like this game followed certain rules that the lore of FNAF 4 tried to convey. Now I’m debating which kid had a more tragic fate, the crying child or poor Jack! 
          That’s a tough decision all right! I’m not sure which character my newest story should be about yet, but I’m thinking I should take a therapy approach to all of the inhabitants of Safe Haven. Maybe I’ll even appoint one of the toys as the local therapist…

@BloodWarden I use the existing characters because I feel I have no right to ā€œgraceā€ another personā€˜s hard work with something of my own creation. These video game companies work around the clock creating scenarios and characters that capture the hearts and minds of millions across the globe. I respect their choices. Whenever I write flash fiction stories and include one of my self-made characters, it seems like plagiarism to me. Of course that’s just my opinion, I have written countless stories that I don’t put online, because that’s my choice. When I’m on Wattpad, I try to keep my fanfics fair.

@SabineBottone if I may. Why not just have an oc act out as a councilor or a new face do so?

I’m counting down the hours until chapter 4 of Poppy Playtime comes out! A quick thought I’ve been pondering after re-watching the last trailer a few times, and I’m not sure if anyone else has theorized on this, but I noticed that every scene with Kissy Missy, we only see the back of her head from an angle. We know she was seemingly attacked at the end of chapter 3, so perhaps she sustained a head injury which might reveal the human remains underneath? 
          Boy, would THAT be a creepy way to bring her back out of the gates! 
          That way she’s still technically a living toy, but her traumatic wounds could help decode Playtime’s heinous experiments…

Poppy’s chapter 4 gameplay trailer was just released, and from the look of it, it seems I will also have to retcon my kissing the gutless story about Kissy Missy… because she’s back bitches! You can clearly see her alive and kicking in the new trailer. That’s not the ONLY bombshell we learned from this new video, but it’s the one I’m most hyped for. I’m gonna begin new plans for stories right away, I hope I can publish them all before chapter 4 comes out next week.

I’ve been scrolling through Poppy Playtime theories cause I’ve been out of the loop for a little while when it comes to theorizing on this game, but since chapter 4 is coming out in a matter of weeks, I’ve decide to get back on track. After watching a couple videos and theories, especially those from Game theory or Terrifytee, I’m afraid I have to personally nullify/revoke one of my theory stories I wrote on this site. The Poppy playtime protagonist theory precisely. 
          I now know thanks to the lore of this game that Dr. White, who’s only mentioned a small handful of times and the elusive P.W. are not the same person. That being said, I will not be erasing it from my collection of stories, it WAS just a theory after all. Once Poppy chapter 4 drops, I’ll start writing fanfics for it again, but for now I’m gonna keep researching.
