ChapterFive Nights at Freddy’s

A monstrosity of flesh and metal, Springtrap’s bloodstained past is littered with the innocent dead. His horrifying innovations are a reminder that beneath the cruelty lies a brilliant inventor, whose creations brought laughter and screams to the same unfortunate audience.

Power

Fazbear's Fright

The Animatronic can launch a powerful projectile, which embeds itself in a Survivor and makes them susceptible to a terrifying close-range grab attack. They will be Broken, Oblivious, and unable to heal until they remove the projectile.
 A near miss will briefly highlight the Survivor with Killer Instinct. You may automatically recall the projectile back to your hand.
 Map Feature: Security Doors & Room At the start of the Trial, 7 Security Doors are spawned throughout the Map. They can be accessed by Springtrap and the Survivors.
 Upon entering a Security Door as Springtrap, you will see the Aura of every Security Door on the Map. You can exit from any one of them, allowing you to traverse across the Map. If you exit into a room occupied by a Survivor, they will be instantly grabbed.
 When a Survivor enters a Security Door, they will enter a unique Security Room. They can then cycle through every Camera on the Map, open and close doors, and exit from whichever door they please. All Survivors will share a collective amount of Battery Power, which effects their ability to interact with Doors and Cameras. When Batter Power reaches zero, they will be unable to enter Security Doors until it recharges.

Springtrap awoke to a familiar sound. The ghosts that had tormented him were gone. The walls surrounding him were decomposing, the floor beneath him falling away in moldy patches. The urge to kill lingered within him still, the thirst long left unquenched. The sound filled his ears again. Children’s laughter. Springtrap rose to his feet and marched towards the sounds. He rushed into the kitchen and found nothing. No children, no games, no laughter. Just a swirling mass of black fog…
