WARIO
"The original founder of Wario's Cafe and Wario's Fast Food Factory, his dream was mostly just for the sake of riches. He was stabbed to death after witnessing the death of his friends. He was then posessed and brought back to life, where he roamed the factory for years, probably wondering how to get more money."

BEHAVIOR
Wario is first seen on Night 1 when the player is forced to hide in the Entrance. He is active if the player decides to hide in these rooms:
- ENTRANCE
- BATHROOM
- STUDY
- PARLOR
- DINING ROOM
- HALLWAY
- CELLAR (12AM - 2AM, and 4AM - 6AM)
ENTRANCE (Night 1)
He starts by entering the Bedroom. Unlike most nights, his path is five rooms long:
Bedroom > Hallway > Kitchen > Parlor > Entrance
Upon entering the Entrance, He will pop up on the left side of the room. Look to the right and DO NOT use the camera until he is gone. He makes footstep sounds when he leaves, although this sound is faint. He leaves after around 4 seconds.
BATHROOM (Night 2)
He starts by entering the Entrance. His path is four rooms long:
Entrance > Dining Room > Hallway > Bathroom
Upon entering the Bathroom, His shadow will be seen behind the curtain on the window. The player must turn on COLD water to make Wario go away. The player cannot shut off the water until he's gone.
If you neglect to turn on the water, shut it off while he's still at the window, or the water is not cold (the meter is on or above the line) after 4-5 seconds, he will kill the player.
LEAVING
If he leaves from the door (you have to keep the left door shut for a certain amount of time), he can retreat to the Lobby, the Eatery, the Factory Hall, the Storage Unit, or the Middle Hall.
KILLING THE PLAYER
If you fail to shut the door for long enough, the left control buttons will break. This means Wario has snuck into the Office. If you pull up the camera or wait long enough, Wario will kill the player, resulting in the player having to start the night over again.
Alternatively, if the player drains all of the building's power, the lights will cut and the Office will become dark. Eventually, Wario will come and his face will flash at the left door for a random amount of time. The room will then cut to pitch black, where Wario will eventually kill the player, unless the player reached 6AM during this process.

BACKSTORY
In 1988, Wario opened Wario's Cafe, a small shop made to produce and sell hamburgers Wario had made. He ran the cafe along with Waluigi. Thanks to the success of their cafe and their great-tasting burgers, Wario and Waluigi were able to build a massive fast food factory with the large amount of money they had made.
On October 21st, 2004, Wario officially opened his fast food factory. Along with Waluigi and Wario, Mario, Luigi, and Princess Peach were hired to work at the factory, with Luigi running the machines, Peach inspecting the factory, and Mario as a technician.
Things were going good. However, one night, someone broke into the factory and disguised themself with the Wario Man costume in the back room. Wario, on guard duty, noticed the costume moving through the cameras. The man, named Bruno Gate, confronted Wario for the recipe. During the threat, Waluigi, Mario, Peach, and Luigi entered the factory. Bruno Gate, now cornered, struck and murdered Waluigi, Peach, Luigi, and Mario. Wario, traumatized by the events, soon died thanks to Bruno Gate.
As Bruno was searching for the recipe, Wario along with his friends were brought back to life by their cursed souls. Now seeking vengence and murder, Wario killed Bruno Gate.
7 years passed, and Richard McRoy was hired as a guard for the now reopened Wario's Factory. As Richard progressed through the week, Wario along with his friends appeared in the cameras, and threatened to kill him.
Wario while he was still alive.
