personality.

Mike is sarcastic and has a snarky sense of humor, evident from his reaction to the training tape at the beginning. He seems tough on the outside, but on the inside he's vulnerable and well meaning. He is very eager to dig up the truth about Freddy's. He can be quite selfless and brave, as well, and he can be described as having a rough, but gentle tone of voice.

background.

Michael Afton took up the name Mike Schmidt to work at the Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, presumably to avoid any questions about his identity. He was paid $120 dollars for his first week for doing his job, as known by a check given after finishing Night 5. He worked from the 8th to the 14th of November 1993. On the first night of the job, Mike listened to the recordings made by his predecessor, giving him advice on the night shift, while fending off the animatronics. While on shift, Mike suffered hallucinations, caused by all the paranormal activity going on around him. However, on Night 4, he heard Phone Guy die, and on Night 5, only heard a disturbing message. He also spent time writing in his security logbook, which he dubbed the Survival Logbook. After Night 6, he was called "Employee of the month", due to his dedication, and praised for overtime. On Night 7, however, Mike tampered with the AI of the animatronics, and was subsequently fired. As well as this, other reasons included unprofessionalism, and odor. Mike Schmidt also appears in the Help Wanted game over room, although it is unknown where this image comes from as Mike survives all the nights he works at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza. It is most likely that Steel Wool did not consider this when creating the game over room, alternatively, the in-universe developers photoshopped Schmidt's eyes from his file photo (that should exist as part of Fazbear Entertainment paperwork records) to cut costs.

character description.

“Riddled with guilt over a tragedy in his past, and now struggling to take care of his younger sister on his own, Mike is low on options when he lands a new job to pay the bills; the night security guard at Freddy Fazbear’s Pizzeria. Mike is vulnerable with a tough exterior. Though he means well, his obsession with digging for truth may have potentially disastrous consequences.”
