Poppy Playtime is the titular deuteragonist of the horror franchise of the same name.
Poppy Playtime was the first doll to be created by Elliot Ludwig who was the same person who went on to found Playtime CO. in the 1950's and she was designed to chat with little girls. In her commercial she is shown to be cheerful and has some nice manners as well as a desire to look good and pretty. Poppy was eventually brought to life via unknown means and witnessed the Prototype orchestrate Hour of Joy where her fellow experiments rebelled against Playtime Co. and killed almost all it's employees. The Prototype locked her away in a glass case until she was freed by the Intruder ten years later. Now, Poppy and the Intruder have teamed up to take down the Prototype once and for all.
She is voiced by the singer Nola Klop, who also voiced V in Murder Drones.
Appearance[]
Poppy is a petite doll with chalk-white skin, freckles and rosy cheeks. She has red, curly hair tied into double pigtails, held up with a pair of blue ribbons. She wears a large, flouncy powder blue gown with long frilly sleeves adorned with numerous bows, frills, and bustles, and a pair of black Mary Janes. She also wears red lipstick. She has a pair of thin, black eyebrows, and a pair of uncannily realistic-looking blue eyes framed by long lashes. Following the train crash in chapter two she appears to have a crack on her right cheek.
Personality[]
Poppy is a bubbly, outgoing, kind, and benevolent toy in stark contrast to her more malicious fellow experiments. She happily helps the Intruder on their journey through the factory and gives them tips on how to survive and the inner workings of the place. This shows her to be highly intelligent and resourceful. She also can be childish and sarcastic at times getting upset when the intruder doesn't follow her claiming it "makes her sad" in a playful manner and telling the Intruder to follow her while she's "still a doll". She is also quite empathetic towards her comrades understanding that Playcare brings back bad memories for Kissy Missy (presumably due to being one of the orphans transformed into toys). However despite her happy go lucky front, Poppy is a character who carries a lot of demons. She is traumatized by the events of the Hour of Joy and the Prototype's actions of killing every employee including the innocent ones. This is in stark contrast to the other experiments who were indifferent and or reveled to deaths of humans even if they were not responsible for their torment. For this reason she has a hatred towards the Prototype for his horrific actions and all the pain he has caused to the point she will stop at nothing to take him down. Although she has a hatred for the Prototype and even his followers it's implied she does acknowledge that the experiments and her did have it bad she does allow it to cloud her judgment and still acknowledges that their actions were wrong. Her hatred towards the Prototype is so immense that she has become somewhat of an extremist. She prevented the Intruder from leaving the factory insisting she needed their help. However, she insisted that it was necessary as they need to end the end the Prototype by any means available, she even goes on record to state escaping would have been pointless as the Prototype would have killed the Intruder before they could. She also deeply cares for her allies as she rushed to help Kissy Missy when she was attacked, she also had respect for Ollie due to his efforts to help them. It's possible she also may have cared for DogDay as well as he implies they were mutual acquaintances due to the fact they both tried to resist the Prototype.
Synopsis[]
Origins[]
When Playtime Co. was founded by Elliot Ludwig, the first toy ever created was Poppy Playtime in the year 1950. Poppy was a porcelain doll meant to simulate a real girl as she had not only the ability to talk but respond as well. Ten years later, Poppy was brought to life through unknown means and resided in Elliot Ludwig's office. Sometime in the nineties Elliot passed away and the company fell under the control of Leith Pierre and Harley Sawyer. Pierre and Sawyer would work together to make more experiments by transforming orphan children into toys to use as slaves to save the company money. One of these experiments #1006 known as the Prototype would grow tired of this abuse and staged a rebellion known as the Hour of Joy. The experiments would kill each and every employee at Playtime even those who were innocent. Poppy was forced to watch the entire thing in horror. For refusing to help him the Prototype locked Poppy away in a glass case in Elliot's office where she would remain for years to come.
Poppy Playtime[]
Somehow, Poppy or someone else managed to get into contact with one of the few surviving employees of the Hour of Joy. A letter was sent instructing them to return to the factory to find their co-workers. After an encounter with Huggy Wuggy the Intruder finds and free's Poppy from her case. Poppy then decides to help the Intruder escape the factory as a thank you for freeing her. She claims that there is a train that leads towards the exit and she has to code to access it. The two end up near a large hole in the floor and Poppy tries to reassure the Intruder to trust her but before she can finish her sentence she is captured by a toy named Mommy Long Legs. Mommy takes Poppy hostage and gags her. However she agrees to not only release Poppy but give the Intruder the train code if they can beat all three of her games in the Game Station. Once the games are done. Mommy insists the Intruder cheated and attempts to kill them. However, Mommy ends up getting stuck in a grinder and dies as a result. The Intruder then free's Poppy and she seems rather happy that Mommy is dead. She gives them the train cofe and allows the Intruder to leave. However at the last minute she diverts the tracks and goes back on her word. she explains that she is impressed by the Intruder given how they were able to kill both Huggy and Mommy and tells them she still needs her help to "set things right". Soddenly however, the train goes out of control and ends up crashing at the entrance to Playcare, Platime Co's former one site orphanage.
After the intruder is able to survive the crash they are greeted by a phone call from someone named Ollie. Ollie reveals he is an ally of Poppy and insists that she meant not harm and she still needs their help to. Soon enough when the Intruder is exploring Playcare they are attacked by Kissy Missy. Before, Kissy can kill them Poppy stops her and insists they are an ally. Poppy insist that she is not the Intruder's enemy but she could not let them leave. She needs their help to stop the Prototype once and for all. Since the Intruder manage to kill both Huggy and Mommy they are the only ones capable of helping her. She then explains that they toys in the facility are all disciples of the Prototype who now rules Playtime Co. with an iron fist. Poppy explains that if the Intruder had tried to leave the Prototype would have killed them regardless. Poppy then reveals that the Prototype has one final minion they need to defeat; CatNap who is his most loyal follower. With him out of the way they can make it to the Prototype. Soon after, the Intruder is forced to fight Catnap and Poppy gives him instruction on how to beat him. Once CatNap is killed, Poppy decides to reveal to the Intruder the truth. She plays a tape that depicts the Hour of Joy where all the Intruders co-worker were murdered ten years ago. She explains that she was forced to listen to the whole thing horror and was locked away by the Prototype. Poppy needs the Intruder's help to kill the Prototype once and for all and avenge his victims. Poppy and the Intruder then get on a lift which takes them deeper into the factory. Kissy Missy activates the lift and Poppy tells her they will come back for her. However on the way down Kissy Missy is attacked by something. Poppy desperately tries to return to the surface to save her but alas it's too later and the hatch closes.
Trivia[]
- Porcelain dolls were very popular as pretend-and-make-believe toys for young girls in the 90s. Coincidentally, if Poppy was indeed made from porcelain, it would likely make her one of the most popular toys of Playtime Co.
- Although Poppy is revealed to be The Player's ally in Chapter 2, it is theorized that she has ulterior motives which could lead to her becoming a villain. However she may need the Player's help to defeat the Prototype and end its reign of terror.
- The latter theory was proven correct as in Chapter 3, it is revealed that she also wants to extract revenge against the Prototype for torturing her and other innocent victims in the factory.
- Despite this, the official MOB music video Sleep Well appears to depict Poppy interacting with the Prototype though later scenes depict her with an expression of horror and regret, attempting to stop the events of the Hour of Joy. This could imply that Poppy once agreed with the Prototype's plan to free the toys but once she saw the carnage this plan brought, she immediately rebelled against him.
