Vanessa is a security guard for Freddy Fazbear’s Mega Pizzaplex. In Five Nights at Freddy’s (game), she is known by several names, such as Vanessa, Vanny or Reluctant Follower.

- In the game, Vanessa has a huge pink tartan embroidery on her left hip and is dressed in a white rabbit costume with stitching all over it. Also, the hands and feet of the outfit have pink paw pads underneath them. Her costume also features a blue bow on its chest angled to the right.
- Lastly, her rabbit mask includes little buck teeth, a pair of long whiskers, small eyebrows, and large, dispersed red eyes.
