## Appearances

### Debut

Bendy and the dark revival

**Audrey Drew** is an animator working for Arch Gate Pictures and the main protagonist of BATDR*.* Drawn into the mysterious world of the Cycle, she navigates the ink-filled halls of monsters and demons in the hopes of finding a way home.

## Personality

Audrey is a very driven person, seeming to enjoy her work as an animator on the newly revived Bendy cartoons and striving hard to reach her goals. While she is initially scared and confused of her surroundings when she enters the Cycle, she shows a determination to navigate whatever horrors await in the studio to find a way home.

Audrey also shows a degree of sympathy for some of the lost souls inside, shown when interacting with others like Azael or Bendy himself. By the story’s end, she uses that sympathy in a vow to make things better for her friends still inside the Cycle.

She is also shown to have a mischievous and playful side, as seen when grabbing Harold from his fish tank, as well as her word choice upon doing so.

Audrey also may be emotional, after being transported to the cycle, finding out the truth about Joey being her father, losing her human appearance (and her legs), and being approached by Hell, she sounded like she was ready to cry. She also confesses to Azael in chapter 23 that she too cries at times.

## Physical appearance

In the real world, Audrey is a young woman with curly brown hair, styled typically of the 1970s era. She wears what appears to be a light blue knitted top, along with dark pants and flat shoes.

When she is pulled into the Cycle, Audrey becomes tainted by the ink. The colors of her clothing change to the sepia tones of the world, her hair still curly and brown, her eyes begin to glow, and she is covered in ink stains. Her left arm is transformed to appear more skeletal and glowing symbols representing her abilities occasionally spread out from the back of her hand into tendrils up her fingers

## Abilities

Audrey is given various abilities upon entering the Ink Demon's world; however, they won't work if signal towers are close by.

* **Banish -** An ability gifted by the Ink itself. Audrey can dissolve enemies by touching them with her left hand if she approaches while crouched and undetected, restoring a portion of her health if done successfully. This ability doesn't work against more powerful foes such as the Keepers.
* **Flow -** An ability gifted by Porter for helping him. Audrey can use this power to travel a large distance in an instant, allowing her to cross large gaps and get to out of reach areas. The downside is that she won't be able to reach the area if it is too far or something is blocking the way.
* **Fast Travel -** An ability gifted by Heidi for playing a game with her. Audrey can travel through connected ink pipes that allow her to reach different areas more quickly. She may even find hidden areas.
* **Realm Rulers body -** After fusing with the Hell and gaining control of its body, Audrey is granted the creature's basic physical powers, although Hell can still speak as well as summon enemies. They don’t do so, as they want the cycle to be reset.
	+ **Superhuman Strength -** Audrey is very strong, allowing her to smash through large metal doors and break stuff around her with ease. However, she can't break through reinforced doors and must rely on her allies' help to open them for her.
	+ **Invincibility -** Audrey's durability allows her to withstand attacks from multiple enemies at once, making it impossible for them to harm or kill her.
	+ **Infinite Stamina -** Audrey can continue moving and fighting without getting tired out

## History

Though Audrey claims that she didn't know her father, mother, or the rest of her family when growing up, the truth was that she was a creation of the Ink Machine. Joey Drew had previously used the Machine to attempt to bring his own characters to life, but later tried to use it to make the family, specifically a daughter, he missed his old daughter from all those years ago and wanted someone like her. A replacement.

After forming children that referred to him as an "uncle", Audrey was his greatest success and Joey came to love her as his own daughter despite her inky origins. However, at some point in the years since her creation, some sort of event caused Audrey to forget her true nature and relation to Joey.

By 1972, Arch Gate Pictures had been established by Nathan Arch whom purchased Joey's assets following his death. Audrey began to work for the company as an animator on a new series of Bendy cartoons soon after. She was so productive with her work that she was named Employee of the Month. She previously worked at a coffee shop, before coming to arch gate with her art skills.

In June 18th 1973, over a year since Arch Gate's purchase of Joey's properties, Audrey is working late finishing up a series of frames for the latest Bendy animation. As a heavy storm rolls in, Audrey leaves her desk to get some coffee and runs into Wilson, the janitor. As their elevator gets briefly stuck, Wilson leads Audrey to an exhibit of Joey Drew's work and asks for her help with getting the power running again. Unfortunately, Audrey is tricked into fulfilling the ritual requirements to start the Ink Machine, and she is pulled into the Cycle at Wilson's hand.

When she awakes, Audrey discovers that the ink of the world has tainted her and she panics trying to find a way out. Learning Wilson has established himself as an authority figure in the Cycle after proclaiming to have killed the Realm Rulers, Audrey narrowly escapes being attacked by a Piper before she is saved by Allison. The angel tells her to avoid the Ink Demon and Weeper and to find a way to the upper levels.

Avoiding the hordes of Lost Ones that try to impede her progress in Animation Alley, Audrey runs into a real-life version of Bendy, whom she tries to befriend. However, her newly discovered powers accidentally trigger and hurt him, causing him to run away. Soon after this, Audrey is pursued by the Ink Demon himself, the entity claiming that she was born from this world and that he knows her secrets. She is successfully able to avoid him, but must continuously hide whenever he draws close.

Later on she meets another toon, that being a real life version of Azael, she attempts to befriend this toon as well, but accidentally shocks her like she did bendy. The toon runs off, Audrey is once again pursued by The ink demon. the Weeper comes along and protects Audrey from said Demon. Once he’s gone, the artist learns the reason why he’s so hostile, and the rules of this world. The weeper goes on her way, leaving Audrey alone. Later on, Azael helps Audrey in artists rest, saving her from the Ink Demon once again and befriending her, but eventually runs off with the Ink Demon close behind in a successful attempt to protect Audrey.

When exploring the Sewers, Audrey encounters an ink manifestation of Joey Drew himself, a memory of the real man trapped in the Cycle along with everyone else. He explains the nature of the Cycle to her, claiming that someone from the outside is attempting to change it with new monsters from the ink, and that she is there for a reason.

Afterwards, Azael makes her way back to Audrey, relived the animator helps her toon companion as she is in bad shape. While exploring around trying to find an exit, Azael reveals that she is the Angel who saved Audrey from the ink demon. To which Audrey seems surprised and has many questions, Azael however doesn’t have answers to most.

When reaching the city that the souls of the Cycle have built, Audrey encounters Bendy again but he’s accompanied by a friend. She apologises for their first meeting and asks him to accompany her. Bendy seems to see right through her however as he is too focused of Azael to properly acknowledge Audrey. After a little “argument” between Azael and Bendy, the toons agree to accompany Audrey and Azael. The quintet explore the streets to find a way into the nearby Gent building. While searching inside the Downside Motel, Joey appears again and draws Audrey into a memory of the studio entrance from *Bendy and the Ink Machine*. It is here that he explains Audrey's origins from the Ink Machine itself and that she is Joey's daughter. Enraged at Joey telling her 'lies', Audrey returns to the Hotel and discovers Bendy and Beebee have disappeared. Azael remains however, the angel frantically signs about the demons disappearances, Audrey attempts to rationalize their sudden disappearance.

Upon trying to enter the Gent facility, the Ink Demon appears to block the girls way, but mysterious towers suddenly activate and sap Audrey and Azael of their powers. At the same time, Audrey witnesses the Ink Demon transform into the same Bendy she had met, realising the two of them are the same being. Azael already knowing about the little devils secret, apologizing for not warning Audrey sooner, the two have a little argument but work this out. Pressing on into the facility, Audrey meets the Keepers, creations of Wilson designed to enforce his rule. She avoids them, sneaking through the facility and into the prison area for the 'Cyclebreakers', entities within the Cycle that could threaten Wilson's plans.

Audrey discovers contraband and artefacts that Wilson has locked up to maintain order, and eventually meets the ink version of Henry Stein. Henry explains that Wilson is trying to prevent the Cycle from starting over again and that Audrey can undo everything he's done by locating a reel of film and showing it to the Ink Demon and possibly the Weeper as well. The two ladies eventually have to go to the little devils lounge for supplies and locate big Steve’s lunch. Azael ends up sensing the Ink Demons presence and forces Audrey to go along without her, to which the animator refutes. Azael ends up pushing Audrey into a linker pipe, forcing her to leave without her. Audrey presses further on, a Keeper suddenly knocks her out before she can get any further.

Audrey awakens inside a train with Wilson, who insists that he brought her here to help him save his father's life and destroy the Ink Demon and Weeper, then allow them to return home safely. Though the a very strange voice speaks to Audrey and claims Wilson is lying, she follows him into his sanctuary where he explains that Gent's signal towers are what keep the Ink Demon and Weeper subdued in their toon forms. Promising to talk later, Wilson has his housemaid Betty show Audrey to a room to rest, but she is knocked out by the sudden appearance of Twisted Alice.

Audrey awakens in one of Alice's games, told that she will be free to go if she solves a puzzle laid out before her. Successfully able to escape, Audrey is then attacked by Alice and is nearly killed until Allison arrives with Tom to save her. With Alice dead, Audrey tells Allison that she's going to see Wilson's plan to destroy the Realm Rulers through while Allison gathers their friends to help.

Returning to Wilson in his laboratory, Wilson tells Audrey that his plan is to create a new ink creature to challenge the Realm Rulers, one born from a colored cartoon design of his own making and a soul that would allow it to be controlled: Audrey's soul. Realizing that he intended all of this to challenge his father, Nathan Arch, with power of his own and that he lied to her with the promise of a way home, Audrey knocks Wilson into his own machines, ripping him apart and sending his body into the inner workings of the Ink Machine itself.

Upon entering the chamber where the Ink Machine is housed, Audrey is suddenly attacked by an amalgamation of Wilson's cartoon and Wilson himself. She is able to beat the creature after destroying the signal towers and unlocking her powers again, banishing Wilson's soul from the monster. However, the creature manages to grievously harm Audrey by ripping her legs off, just before an Angel like Demon arrives and drags it back into the ink to kill it for good.

This Angel Demon hybrid being Hell, Beebee stands to protect Audrey, guarding her much like Weeper had done. The two creatures coil whike Audrey loses consciousness.

When Audrey comes around, Hell is waiting and taunts her, saying that her entire purpose inside the Cycle is now over and pointless. With no strength left to resist, Hell offers their hand to Audrey, to which she accepts. Her body fuses it with their own, merging the two of them together into the Beast. Suddenly, the ink version of Joey reappears with the End Reel, appealing to Audrey who is still trapped inside the monsters to see the end of the Cycle through. Though the Ink Demon snarls and demands Joey out of this. Weeper briefly takes over and kills Joey. The Realm Rulers do not force Audrey forward, they let her take full control. Audrey seizes control of the body and runs through the facility with an army of Lost Ones in hot pursuit. Allison and Tom, along with the now free Henry, Addison, and all the other friends Audrey made along the way, help to fight them back while Audrey reaches the projector. Sammy and Akio briefly appear, preaching their “savior’s” return, trying to dissuade Audrey's allies from resisting any further, only to be shot dead by Allison with her Tommy Gun. Upon reaching the projector, Audrey inserts the reel and shines it at Beast’s eyes, resetting the Cycle once again.

Now appearing to be back in the real world, Audrey reflects on what Joey said to her about how people are free to choose what to believe and do despite where they came from. Accepting her nature not only as Joey's daughter, but a being born of ink and living as flesh in the real world, she vows to make things easier for her friends still within the Cycle before she turns to her side, revealing an in-color Bendy, and Azael waiting for her. Unbeknownst to her, Gent Corp took the ink machine back to their workshop to continue with their experiments.

## Trivia

* A hint at Audrey's relation to Joey Drew can be found right at the beginning of the game. At her workstation, the same signed image from Henry that was given to Joey and hung on the wall of his home is now hanging from the wall above Audrey's desk.
* In one of the many memos found throughout the studio in *Bendy and the Dark Revival,* it is revealed that Audrey was not Joey’s first attempt at creating a daughter. He made at least four prior attempts before her whom called him “Uncle” Joey. This was a reference to the post-credits' scene of *Bendy and the Ink Machine* where a young girl’s voice is heard saying, “Tell me another one, Uncle Joey.” Their exact fates remain unknown.
* It is not known if Audrey actually returned to the real world in the end or not, but based on her thoughts and what was seen following the Realm Rulers defeat, it is implied that she has indeed made it back, but both worlds are now on the verge of merging.
* Audrey's sweater is similar in both appearance and style to that of Jack's, the playable character of *Bioshock*, a game that had a heavy influence on the Bendy franchise. This is likely a reference to said games.
* Audrey definitely needs therapy.
* She is Pansexual
* She’s like a big sister to the other toons, despite them being way wayy older than her.
