BadSum, in the ending screen of Baldi's Basics Plus

BadSum is a mysterious Easter egg character in Baldi's Basics Plus.

Description[]

This character resembles Baldi but with a few differences. BadSum has a blue shirt while the original Baldi has a green one, large pupils, and no hair unlike Baldi who has a single string of hair. He is viewed from an angle, rather than facing toward the screen. His facial expression seems to be frightened and scared, which is also one Baldi was never seen with before. It is unknown if he has different colored pants than Baldi, since he is only shown from the shoulders up in this screen. BadSum also seems to appear in Baldi's Office, but the desk has a globe in it.

He is nicknamed "BadSum" by the community, from the file name of the screen's image. However, it has been officially confirmed in the NINENINE secret that BadSum is not the character's name, his appearance hasn't changed since the Kickstarter Exclusive Demo, and that his name has yet to be revealed.
