Usage	Easter Egg

"WANDERING IS A TERRIBLE SIN." — The text seen on the sign that the Wandering Sin holds.

The Wandering Sin is a hidden Bendy cutout found throughout Bendy and the Ink Machine and Boris and the Dark Survival.

Similar to theMeatly's Easter egg form, each of the cutouts always appear hidden but only in every inaccessible location, and can be visibly found if using no-clip with hack edits. The Wandering Sin's existence refers to the player hacking and "wandering" to places they shouldn't be.

In Bendy and the Dark Revival, it becomes a physical entity that resembles Cartoon Bendy and can be found in out of bounds areas.

Description

It is a life-sized Bendy cutout with several aged stains and trails of ink dripping on the forehead. The most eerie-looking features are the staring eyes, appearing more detailed compared to the cartoonish pie eyes used for other characters in Bendy's cartoons, with circular iris, small pupils, and wide black outlines to resemble eye-sockets. The left eye also has a tear of ink. There is a curved "line" from the sides of its grinning mouth, as if the cutout is trying to stretch its smile wider, also with black stains under the mouth. Furthermore, the cutout itself appears to be attached to the wall with the ink-drawn occult symbol behind it. The cutout holds a rectangular sign with dented stains, and a message is written in dripping paint as "WANDERING IS A TERRIBLE SIN".

If approaching the cutout, some strange and unnerving ambiance-like noise, what sounds like whispering-like voices and some reversed noises, can be heard, as if the cutout were possessed. The voices' words, however, are inaudible and hard to make out.

Locations

Chapter 1: Moving Pictures

The Wandering Sin is located at the dead end from the stair halls behind the blocked entrance found in the lunch room.

Chapter 2: The Old Song

The Wandering Sin appears in the upper, unexplored room, located from the room’s “entrance”, where it is seen with a Bendy doll, some stones in the shape of Bendy's head, and candlesticks.

Chapter 3: Rise and Fall

The Wandering Sin is located after the stairs from behind the closed gates of Level 11's lunch room where the Projectionist goes.

Chapter 4: Colossal Wonders

The Wandering Sin appears in two unexplored locations: The cutout is found inside the dead-end hall next to Henry's desk behind Ink Bendy's vent jumpscare. The larger version is found in a room above the Archives, past the pipe, blocked by boulders with a crying Lost One.

Chapter 5: The Last Reel

The Wandering Sin appears behind the wall covered in a debris of rocks located in the hallway within the Administration maze, where the Scythe also can be found.

Chapter ?: The Archives

The Wandering Sin appears behind the board where Henry starts. This one, however, does not have the eerie whispers as the other cutouts, likely to not give itself away due to it being so nearby to the player.
