Baldloon

s are corrupted Baldi-esque entities that appear in Baldi's Basics Birthday Bash and Baldi's Basics Classic Remastered. Their characteristics are the same as the party balloon decoration found within rooms and hallways of the Schoolhouse, due to them both being balloons and presumably being the same species.
== Description ==
All s are variations of Baldi's chase sprite in Baldi's Basics Birthday Bash, coming in five colors: , , , , and , the last of which only appears as a hostile entity.
The s also have randomly cropped numbers, letters, and symbols on their sprites. Every always has a black shirt, except for the green , which has a green shirt instead. The red s' glitched appearances are much more severe than other variant sprites, with multiple parts of their heads covering their torsos and rulers.
== Role ==
=== Baldi's Basics Birthday Bash ===
s can be found in the glitched school during the normal ending of Baldi's Basics Birthday Bash. They move around very slowly like balloons, and it is possible to push them. After finding the puzzle room, the player must enter the numbers in reference to how many s there are:
* 8 
* 6 
* 3 
* 1 
Shortly after entering the now-unlocked secret room, a numerous amount of red s will start to appear by clipping out from the walls, whilst playing an audio file called , which is mainly glitching noises. As time progresses, the number of red s will increase, slowly taking over all of the locations while following the player. This will get noisy very fast as each clone will play their individually.
Non-red s serve no function other than to be counted. Red s act as light obstacles, as they will slow down the player if they are surrounding them. After a short period of time, the amount of red s will start rapidly growing in quantity, which prevents the player from moving. Eventually it will go to the point where there are so many red s, that the player will be unable to see even the nearest wall. After a short while when the 's swarm you, a distorted "" screen will appear. The sound can still be heard during the ending because the "" screen is not a scene, but rather another simple UI element that blocks the player's view entirely.
=== Baldi's Basics Classic Remastered ===
s appear exclusively in Party Style and Glitch Style. 
Their behavior in Party Style is similar to their appearance in Birthday Bash, but the number of different-colored variants is randomized. The red s, as soon as they start appearing, will try to follow the player as if they were on a slippery plane. These variants will delete a tile upon touching one, and distorting the textures of everything upon touching the player. Towards the end of this style, a huge endless swarm of red s will spawn, slowly corrupting the entire school map. The player's speed and the 's will be greatly increased at that time.
== Trivia ==
=== General ===
* 's name is a portmanteau of Baldi and "balloon".
* The red s' sound (alternatively known as in the original Baldi's Basics Birthday Bash files) is actually the file imported into an audio editor as raw data, encoded by VOX ADPCM with the sample rate set to 44100 Hz.
** Creepy distorted icons of Baldi's Basics Classic can be seen in the graphical view of the formatted file using Cheat Engine. This would happen in some CD-ROM games if one of the tracks was played on a CD player.
** This is also done by changing the file to a file, and making text size lower than 3.
* The s' colors correspond exactly with the regular balloons first seen in Baldi's Basics Birthday Bash.

* The red s' noise also plays when the jump scare occurs from the rare red game over screens. However, mystman12 confirmed this to be made by mistake."I didn't mean to do that. it was actually an accident... The best kind of accident! :P" - mystman12. June 11, 2019. Twitter
=== Baldi's Basics Classic Remastered ===
* In the trailer during the glitch part, the red s appear as a split-second cameo when the scene transitions to the Cafeteria part.
* In Glitch Style, a single red 's sentences in the YCTP are written in a unique manner with certain letters replaced by numbers or similar letters.
* In the "I hope this wasn't too hard to solve" page, it is implied that the red was always supposed to be the chaser in NULL Style.
== Glitches ==
=== Baldi's Basics Birthday Bash ===
* If the player pushes a into the corner, both the entity and the player themselves will get permanently stuck, soft locking the game.
** In other cases, pushing a red into a corner will clip it out of the map.
* If there is a certain amount of red s, they can glitch the player up to the ceiling.
