Appearance

Sammy's ink form appears as a pitch-black, slightly muscular human figure wearing a smudged Bendy cutout as a mask with a hole punched into the mouth, presumably to help him speak without his voice being muffled. He has no visible hair, most likely due to the ink. Besides wearing no shirt, he also wears pants with suspenders that somewhat resemble the overalls Boris wears, with a patch sewn over the left knee. His shoes and lower parts of his pants are coated with ink. Under his mask, he is almost faceless. He lacks most facial features, including ears, leaving only his eye sockets and a nose.

Personality

Unlike his human personality, Sammy has become fanatical and rather mentally unstable, as well as somewhat psychotic and unhinged, to the point of worshiping The Ink Demon as his "savior" and offering him sacrifices to appease him in a method similar to Satanic rituals. As a human, Sammy did not appear homicidal in his earlier recordings but appears to have become maddened by unnatural corruption prior to Henry returning to the workshop 30 years later.

Sammy seems to suffer from severe memory loss. He has been shown to suddenly forget what he was talking about mid-sentence and is so forgetful he can no longer remember his significant other or even the color of his hair. The only thing he can almost remember is Henry, as he felt Henry looked familiar to him when he saw his face, although this may be a result of them being in a cycle, but ends up disregarding it and instead continues calling him a "Sheep".

After being attacked by The Ink Demon, Sammy's calm nature completely disappeared and had regressed to an insane shadow of his personality. Thus, his voice disturbingly changed, from breathless and calm to full of anger in tone with the additional demonic effect. His insanity was so great that he even believed Henry to be his former "savior", who he was bent on killing. However, when his mask was knocked off of his face, Sammy was apparently terrified of Henry looking at his face, though this proved to be a facade that eventually lead to his own downfall. . . . Down in the cyclebreakers hold, you already met Henry Stein, but had seen another cell. Wouldn’t hurt to see it whats in it… as you walked over, you hear the faint sound of someone playing the banjo. This cell is labeled as “Subject 418.” You flipped the lever and the sound of the banjo got clear. Inside was an ink creature. But this one was just.. sitting on the chair, playing the banjo. There was a resurrecting pentagram underneath him, and his bendy mask that had black paint scratched off with a hole punched into its mouth was on the ground. A few candles were around to dimly light his cell. He was wearing pants with suspenders. He didn’t even turn to you. Just kept playing like nothing mattered.
