Appearance
Not much is known about The Protagonist's appearance, but it is assumed they are a child no older than around ten. It can be presumed that they are deceased after their encounter with Mama in the game's normal ending; however, if the player unlocks the secret ending, it can be presumed that they live.
The games creator has said that the child was not intended to have a set gender, but it can be assumed they are one of the children seen in the photograph of their room. Many assume they are male due to the boyish look of their bedroom.
