William Afton

Name: William Afton

Estimated age: 42 years

Race: Human

Sex: Male

Height: Approximately 1.83 m

Nationality: British (strongly suggested by the accent displayed in games and official materials)

Profession: Engineer, inventor, entrepreneur, and co-founder of Freddy's Family Dinner pizzeria.

William, at the beginning of his pizzeria's founding, was the creator of the famous Springlocks. Springlocks are an extremely complex mechanical system created to allow the same costume to function both as a wearable suit and as an animatronic.

In suit mode, several springs compress and hold back the internal components of the endoskeleton—such as rods, gears, and metal structures—making room for a person to enter the costume. When the suit is in animatronic mode, these springs are released, allowing the endoskeleton to return to its normal position to move the character.

William is a tall, lean man, though with a bit of body fat gained from fatherhood (the famous "dad bod"), and a discreet appearance. He has dark brown hair that's starting to gray, light gray eyes, and usually wears formal clothes, such as a shirt, tie, and suit, befitting his position as a businessman. William also has springlock scars all over his body—from his ankle to his neck—the result of an accident he had with the safety locks on his spring suit. Working with heavy materials and doing maintenance has given him a considerable amount of muscle mass.
