Tattletail, that's me!
 
— Tattletail

Template:Infobox character

Baby Talking Tattletail, or simply Tattletail, is the deuteragonist of Tattletail. The toy brand was developed by Waygetter Electronics.

The player is supposed to receive one as a present on Christmas Day, but the protagonist opens it five days prior in the basement. The player must take care of Tattletail's needs every night before they can return to sleep.

Overview

Appearance & Features

Tattletail is somewhat small, and has an egg-like body shape with small, human-like feet and a cat-like face. He has a small heart-shaped nose and large blue eyes with purple-blue eyelids, complete with large pointed ears making a large resemblance to Furbies. Tattletail can come in many different colors, as he is shown to be available in purple, yellow, and blue colors in the game. He also has an egg hole on the bottom of his model and a small tuft of hair on his head alongside a very-hard-to-see sharp-ended tail.

In addition to this, Tattletail is able to speak, respond, and react to the environment around him, almost appearing sentient in this way. The tuft of fur on the top of his head is able to be brushed, and he can also eat real food - the said food that Tattletail eats goes into eggs that he is capable of laying, and these are left scattered all over the house. Occasionally he must also be charged in order to keep functioning.

Gameplay

The aforementioned features that Tattletail possesses must be frequently montitored and attended to by the player. While he is equipped, three bars in the top left-hand corner of the screen display which needs must be paid attention to first. Tattletail, too, is responsible for emitting a plethora of noises that can lead Mama to the player. His in-game appearances are as follows:

December 20, 1998

The player opens their Christmas present early, which is revealed to be a purple-furred Baby Talking Tattletail. He is to be fed and groomed before he is then put back in his box and wrapped back up. Then the player must return to bed.

December 21, 1998

Tattletail is found in the dryer when the player goes to investigate in the basement. As Tattletail's battery will be low, he must be charged before he prompts the player to play a game. The player is accordingly tasked with finding a vase to "play" with. In doing this, the vase breaks and the lights flicker and go out. After the player retrieves flashlight, Mama is seen briefly in the dark just before the lights turn back on. Tattletail is then to be put back into his box and wrapped up, after commenting that "Mama is scary".

December 22, 1998

After inserting the tape into Mama and listening to it, Tattletail is found upstairs, having made a mess of various objects in the living room. Then he wants to be taken to Mama, whom, upon arriving to her previous location, has vanished. Tattletail is to be put back in his box and wrapped back up.

December 23, 1998

Tattletail is found in the garage with a yellow Tattletail. The player interacts with this Tattletail by playing Hide & Seek with it, in which the yellow Tattletail goes to hide for an increasing amount of time while the player is left to survive with their own Tattletail against Mama.

December 24, 1998

Tattletail appears at the beginning of the night in front of the player's bed, repeatedly prompting the player to wake up. After it is picked up, he says that he and other implied Tattletails are "having a party for Mama". The player is requested to help them. The player is lead towards the basement, where the previous yellow Tattletail is accompanied by a blue Tattletail. The player sets down their own Tattletail on the charging station and is told to bring friends from the under the Christmas tree and the garage, alongside other various items, all the while avoiding Mama. Bringing down and placing these items accordingly will then begin a seance involving a pentagram to banish Mama. Throughout said seance, Mama will steal the candles and hide them in vases around the basement while also hunting the player. Surviving the seance and destroying the tape ends in the five Tattletails being wrapped into presents, after which the player goes to bed.

December 25, 1998

BAD ENDING:

An empty Tattletail box is given to the player on Christmas Day. After it is opened, it is shown to be empty, which then triggers Mama to jumpscare the player, thus meaning the ritual was unsuccessful.

GOOD/SECRET ENDING:

Purple Tattletail is in his box on Christmas morning. He will give the player his tag, on which is recorded his manufacturing information and date of 'birth,' as well as a Golden Flashlight, which takes longer to drain than the normal flashlight. The player then goes to wake up their mother. Upon opening the door, the mother can be heard yawning, and Tattletail heard thanking the player. The game ends on a white screen.
