MOTHER is the final character and the overarching antagonist shown in Treasure Island.
Appearance
MOTHER is typically a black silhouette with the appearance of Mickey Mouse, with two glowing-white eyes in the form of rings; resembling the Shades. In certain events, however, her colors can invert, becoming a pure-white silhouette of Mickey Mouse with two glowing-black eyes instead, which is MOTHER's true form.
Behavior
MOTHER initially makes a cameo appearance in the cutscene after Night 1, where she will emit bubbling noises, and then, off-screen, will brighten the player's view and emit the droning noise. MOTHER's first appearance is in the cutscene after completing Night 2. She will swiftly sprint behind the bars and then slowly fade in front of the player while behind the bars, staring at them as the screen shakes; and a droning noise can be heard. MOTHER once again makes a following appearance in the cutscene after completing Night 4; where she will teleport from behind the bars in front of the player, once again causing the screen to shake, as droning can be heard in the background.
MOTHER makes her final appearance in Night 6; initially distracting the player by fading into their view after placing the monitor. After the player returns to the Pirate Caverns on Floor 3, inputs the code they got from Henry's Night 6 phone call into the keypad and enters the vault, they will come across a room full of various drawings and doodles of Mickey Mouse, and multiple boxes. After a short time, MOTHER, off-screen, will close and lock the vault in order to trap the player into the vault permanently (bubbling noises are heard after that). Then, MOTHER will fade into view, shaking and emiting the same droning noise as she turns the room pitch-black. She will then hop directly in front of the player next; emiting the droning noise, slowly inverting her attire as multiple pairs of eyes fade in the view and can be seen in the background. After the player's vision turns black, she will utter, "It's here, my children," ending the game.

Trivia
- Though MOTHER appears to be a complete sillhouette of Mickey Mouse, MOTHER is portrayed to be female instead. This was considered to be a coincidence to several players, but was later accepted.
- MOTHER bears several parallels to the original version of GOD from old versions of Five Nights at Treasure Island. Both refer to the toons as their children.
- Contrary to popular belief and numerous explanations by Radiance, MOTHER was NOT responsible for creating the toons, but rather the Corruptus effect was the source on creating them in the first place.
- In addition, they explained that she took the toons as her adopted children.
- During Night 6, while battling Hourglass, MOTHER will teleport in front of the player while their monitor is raised and then disappear when it is lowered.
- Contrary to what some may believe, MOTHER is not a Shade, and is in fact her own being. Likewise, the Shades are a separate type of entity themselves as well.
- In Pirate Caverns 2, MOTHER can rarely appear in either the left or right hallway in the entrance to the vault in Floor 3. She will disappear when the player shines the flashlight on her. Additionally, if the player proceeds to use the camera flash against MOTHER, she will invert her colors before making her disappearance.
- MOTHER is actually a recycling of a beta mechanic that was never used for the official game, known as Shadow Mickey. Its purpose would be to fade in if the Office Lights were disabled for a long period. This mechanic was a placeholder until Radiance found a more effective method of punishing the player for keeping the lights off for too long.
- One of the developers has said that MOTHER's true appearance is an inverted version of her: a pure-white attire and black-ring eyes. This was to stay a bit true to GOD's form, but nobody has noticed.
- MOTHER was a last minute addition to Five Nights at Treasure Island.
- A redesigned GOD was originally supposed to appear instead of her.
“ | You don't even realize, that the grass you step on, the air you breathe. It's all... me. I've always been here. Every single time. Even if you didn't realize it, even if you didn't recognize me, I've been here forever. And I will be here, forever. | ” |
MOTHER is the final character and the main antagonist shown in Oblitus Casa.
Extras Bio
"Following Jake's encounter with her in FNaTI, MOTHER is once again encountered after the burning of Hourglass, where she reveals the true scope and extent of her being and the island, before taking on a physical form, that of MickMick. While the MOTHER character is a drastically rewritten and updated version of GOD from previous incarnations of FNaTI, MickMick's role in the franchise was initially much smaller. He originates from the 3.0 version of FNaTI, where he served as a temporary replacement for Photo-Negative Mickey before the addition of Willy, and later once again took the role in version 4.0."
Appearance
MOTHER retains being a black silhouette with glowing eyes in the form of rings, however, she has a few noticeable differences compared to her appearance in Discovery Island. Her limbs are now longer, and long tree-looking roots seem to spread out of her body.
Behavior
If the player progresses through Night 1 while playing Oblitus Casa for the first time, MOTHER will automatically and typically jumpscare them at 5:30 AM, even when they least expect it. After this, the player will be immediately sent to the Post-Mortem sections, so that they can get a tutorial for it, which was the intention of the scripted event. However, if they die during Post-Morten and play the first night the second time, MOTHER will not make reappearances again after that.
NOTE: Recent patches (2.0.0 or later) changed her behavior slightly. She will now always kill the player on Night 1, no matter if they were killed by her before. In return, Night 1's Post-Mortem is now retriable. If the player fails, they will be able to try again.
However, MOTHER makes a reappearance during the post-cutscene of Night 4. After Jake Smith burns Hourglass inside a locker with a lighter after a final escape in the Tunnels, MOTHER becomes enraged at the death of her "children". She let out her anger towards the inidividuals who had come to the island in the past, and revealed how she is the embodiment of Discovery Island. Now having gone off the deep end, MOTHER prepares to finally exterminate Jake, and avenge her fallen children, by possessing MickMick.
During Night 5, MOTHER is one of the three characters serving as final enemies in the game (alongside MickMick and Inkblot Face). If MickMick lacks eyes during the night, MOTHER will make a definitive appearance in the cameras connected to MickMick. Once MOTHER is spotted, the player must either flash the camera on her to scare her off or switch to another camera (or otherwise close the monitor) to prevent her from corrupting the camera (this is especially crucial given the fact that MickMick cannot be near the Office and must be lured away with the music). Delaying or neglecting to do so in time will result in MOTHER corrupting the camera she was stared at by the player. She functions comparatively to Daisy, with the exception of her quicker movement and that the cameras she breaks not repairing themselves at all. In addition, she will remain in the camera she was previously spawned at if she isn't flashed, unlike Daisy. MOTHER must be either flashed or ignored until MickMick receives his eyes back by moving and she dissappears if the camera flash isn't used for that.
NOTE: Recent patches (2.0.0 or later) have made her mechanic a little bit harder, MOTHER now appears more frequently in the cameras once you switch a camera, this time she will break instantly the camera you are on when you switch to another if you don't use the camera flash on her and so she isn't connected to MickMick's movements (Unlike the patch 1.0.0 and 1.0.1). (So far).
In addition, MOTHER also slowly materializes herself on the notepad (similarly to Belial). The player must erase her drawing in order to prevent her attack. If her drawing gets finished, MOTHER will insta-kill the player.

Trivia
- MOTHER being MickMick has been teased since a render of her 6.0 model got added to the Wiki, having the same pose as MickMick's 3.0 header.
- MOTHER is based on Slenderman, The Operator from Marble Hornets, as well as SCP 106.
- MOTHER's design in Oblitus Casa is similar to a character known as "Hidden Mickey" from Treasure Island 2016-2018, both of them being entirely black iterations of Mickey Mouse while also having a lanky and tall appearance.
- In 1.0 version of Oblitus Casa, if MOTHER's sketch was finished on the notepad, the one who'd kill the player was MickMick, instead of MOTHER as it is now.
