Dante is the security guard for Freddy Fazbear's Pizza (the final location)- and also was for fredbears way back when too. After he was injured for a reason only known to him shortly before Fredbear's was shut down, he took lots of time away from the franchise to recuperate. Then years later, when Freddy Fazbear's opened, he inexplicably applied for the security guard job opening. Heaven knows why such a flighty, paranoid man would want to come back to the very place of his nightmares again- especially after the whole incident he endured... But it seemed like something- or... maybe someone? Convinced him. That despite his fear of the place and it's robots, maybe a different fear of something else was driving him.

okay and I GUESS i have to address the elephant in the room.../silly

The purple corpse on the left is not this AU's variant of Michael Afton, but more-so it's William. Samuel, is this AU's "William stand-in"- which means Dante is the brother of the worst character in the au!/silly Samuel wasn't born purple. Just like Michael in fnaf, he was scooped by Ennard and turned into a purple zombie. It was their ultimate revenge on their creator and tormentor.
