The only monsters known in this Archetype are Sin Blue-Eyes White Dragon,Sin Red-Eyes Black Dragon, Sin Stardust Dragon, Sin Cyber End Dragon, and Sin Rainbow Dragon, corrupted versions of their non-Sin counterparts, used by Paradox.
All of the monsters in this Archetype are corrupted monsters, so all of them are DARK Attribute Monsters. They all have mechanical-looking pieces of their body, including wings and face-plates (and, in Sin Stardust Dragon's case, a torso plate). Also, each one is the counterpart of a Dragon monster (with the exception of Cyber End Dragon, who only resembles a Dragon).
They appear to share three aspects with the Earthbound Immortals: They are both DARK attributes, only one of them can be on the field at a time and destroy themselves if a Field Spell is not present. They also have an effect in common with the Infinity monsters which prevents other monsters you control from attacking.
The first two Sin Monsters, Sin Blue-Eyes White Dragon and Sin Red-Eyes Black Dragon, had no effects besides the aforementioned ones. The third, Sin Stardust Dragon, offers support to the theme by protecting Field Spell Cards from destruction by card effects.
In the trailers shown before every episode are nine face-down cards. The first 5 were "Sin" monsters. However, the latest monsters revealed did not appear to be a "Sin" counterpart of any known monster. The sixth one is Elemental Hero Neos Knight, while the seventh is Junk Gardna.
However, the eighth monster is Sin Parallel Gear and the ninth and final monster is Sin Truth Dragon used by Paradox in the movie.
