Discussions about the Entity's realm

Among all the characters in Dead by Daylight, Kwon Tae-young is a gentle, pure-hearted ordinary person with a very regrettable fate. Unlike many characters who carry past obsessions or step into conflicts voluntarily, he never approaches darkness on his own, never commits mistakes, and never involves himself in any disputes. He is just a young man with an ordinary life who treasures his family an0 comments 11 views last activity

Jonah Vasquez is easily one of the most hated, disliked, and uncared for survivors amongst the playerbase. In a recent leak, it was even revealed that the DbD team knows of Jonah’s generally poor regard among the fandom and has intentions to tackle his perception at a later date, though this was not a high priority. The reason Jonah is widely disliked by the community at large is because of his l15 comments 571 views last activity

It looks like an older knight design gave him white/blond hair, but more importantly, his scarf is reminiscent of a woman's shawl with its geometric/floral pattern and the fringe/lace around the edges. Knowing that Tahros revered his mother and she loved him (and his siblings) dearly, I wonder if this was supposed to convey that visually with it being a0 comments 41 views last activity

Have a seat and have fun reading because we're going deep boyos. Part 1 - The Different Realms The first part of uncovering the Entity's weakness is to understand the world the Entity has created. We know that the Entity's realm is a realm of it's own. A nighmarish construct where the trials happens. The MAIN realm where everything happens. But there are also two sub-worlds that exists92 comments 11,431 views last activity

A common characterization of Taurie I see is that she's secretly a good person raised in a cult which maybe but I wanna put forward a different possibility. That Taurie is still 100% team entity and her seemingly selfless acts are actually completely self serving. People cite her perks as e vidence of her actually being a selfless nice person helping her fellow survivors but looking at everything3 comments 111 views last activity

The entity is mysterious, like the universe and its cosmic unknowns where our maps ends and wonder beigns . Are you familiar with the 4th dimension or higher dimensions? here is a cool explanation video (3) Cosmos - Carl Sagan - 4th Dimension - YouTube and an ilustration , ilustrations are fun , the entity looks kinda meh here but it frames the idea . much love out there take care , hop2 comments 72 views last activity

if a killer were to mori a survivor would that count as the Entity getting a sacrifice? seeing as they arent getting hooked nor taken by the Entity, instead getting just left on the ground, dead…all sad and alone.4 comments 122 views last activity

So the common interpretation of Jason's backstory that I'm hearing is that Jason had been hunting around Greenville, encountered the Unknown out in the woods, kicked the crap out of him and was then pulled into the Fog because he seemingly impressed The Entity. However, an alternative interpretation is that Jason actually shows up in the Fog uninvited during a Trial where the Unknown was the Kil4 comments 601 views last activity

In the newest Anniversary teaser that hypes up The Entity, while everyone is busy theorizing on Pennywise, I had a different takeaway: In the widescreen format of the teaser that was only visible on specific Creators' channels (thanks to their direct early access by BHVR), a street sign appears that reads "Twisted Deam."

I need help settling a debate that has been raging in my friend group for that past month now. Are all DBD survivors still 18+? I know that in the past, it has been the position of the developers that all survivors (and killers, I believe) in DBD are 18+, but I am curious as to whether this is still the case. The debate in my friend group has been centered on the DBD versions of Dustin and Eleven26 comments 1,191 views last activity

What is the chance that survivors would actually face the same killer more than once? We see hear of multiple unseen killers in the lore. A fluffle of bunnies a giant multihead machine monster a village lady who feeds men to pigs. giant spiders ect. and multiple survivors mentioned in the lore and flavor text Wouldnt every trial be something different? there must be thousands of survivor4 comments 121 views last activity

Hi guys! I’m new around here and I wanted to talk about one of the headcanons I’ve had about Ghostface for a few years now. A long time ago I was researching a disorder that used to be called multiple personality disorder, now known as DID (Dissociative Identity Disorder), which is a mental condition where a single person presents two or more distinct identities or personality states.

So, in the Huntress realms, you often hear what sounds like heavy raindrops, or footsteps on soggy ground. If you happen to look, to me they seem like little footprints running around. Also, they're too heavy for raindrops, and way too large. Also, if it was raindrops, why would they only fall in a line and only in a limited area?

This might sound weird but genuinely asking, we're hours away from the launch of the PTB for Stranger Things Chapter 2, and I've had this question on my mind for a while, but is it at all a possibility to change the lore for Steve , Nancy and Jonathan to better fit the events of Season 5, that way they can have possible interactions with Eddie, and have interactions with other characters with the5 comments 201 views last activity

Namely, that the Yamaoka family name was actually taken by an impostor. As revealed in Tome 23, Kazan's father had actually been a slave named Hachi who was taken as a child by the real Yamaoka family. He served as a playmate and servant to the heir, Renjiro Yamaoka. Then, during a voyage, Renjiro was killed, impaled on debris from his ship as it was torn apart in a storm. Hachi survived and too3 comments 241 views last activity

Both Adiris in Tome 7 and David Tapp in Tome 10 have Memory 4100 through 4106. Obviously they can't both be that number, but I'd really like to know who has the numbers correct, and what the numbers are for the other?2 comments 41 views last activity

Just curious why vecna (The lich) is the only one with the mark so far. Are no other killers strong enough yet? Or did bhvr forget about the mark? Or maybe there’s issues with license holders if the killer is strong enough?3 comments 82 views last activity

Are people interested in more film adaptations of dbd? I’m working on a fan film inspired by The Blight’s lore , following Talbot Grimes before the Fog — his obsession, his mental struggles, and the choices that lead to his descent as The Blight. I'm wondering what the people of the fog are thinking, do we want more film adaptation of dbd? I sure do!0 comments 1 views last activity

Since I have nothing better to do, I decided to put together a timeline for when each Killer's story took place. This took, honestly not that much time, but some of it is obviously questionable. And since a lot of these stories could have taken place during a large time period, obviously some Killers are in the wrong spot, but this is the best I could do.

Out of every killer in the game, I think the playerbase can collectively agree that the most underdevelouped and poorly handled killer is Hag. Simplistic and vague backstory has never been fleshed out upon ever beyond a very VERY bad tome story. What glimpses of intrigue due exist can be confusing or very unclear, and not in a good way like The Unknown or something. As a Hag main and someone who6 comments 191 views last activity

We know that within the trials they cannot speak to each other, (which has now been disproven) but what about around the campfire??? The survivors interact and communicate with each other at the fire, this is shown through their animations and some voicelines. We also know that there are some survivors that don't speak english; Thalita and Renato are main example. So if the campfire serves as a r1 comments 131 views last activity

I'm trying to piece all the lore together to find a specific timeline. I'm trying to make a timeline around all the times characters have been taken into the fog. It's easier for characters that are from the past, like Vittorio or the twins, but when it comes to more modern characters like Orela and Sable it's kinda hard to piece together because there isn't a specific date to keep in mind.

Nurse's entire base lore is not only incredibly barebone and vague to begin with (even prior to being shortened by bhvr to be even more barebone and vague than what it already was), but there is nothing within the tome story that can't be explained or that goes against anything that's already established within the base lore. The base lore is so vague, to the point that it allowed for multiple i3 comments 142 views last activity

As you know, the trials have specific rules. But what are all of them, spoken and unspoken. Example, can you defend yourself against a killer? I'm the kind of person that wants all details, so if someone could share them, that would be great. gO, gHoStFaCe!!!0 comments 61 views last activity

I’ve been connecting dots between Mikaela’s lore, The Unknown’s lore, and some cultural analogies, and it seems clear: Julian was never really her best friend. He was The Unknown in disguise, targeting Mikaela as the intended host. 1. Julian as The Unknown (Mask & Predator) Julian appears to be Mikaela’s supportive roommate and friend.

I absolutely love the Krasue's lore. It's short but really good! After hearing her voicelinesI do havea couple of questions. From her lore we know that Burong isn't aware of what the Krasue does at night, or atleast that she doesn't remember what happens. However in the trail the two of them have to work togther, I mean we as the player can swap between body and head form at will. This got me t6 comments 292 views last activity

I can't imagine them socializing with each other when it comes to killers like Myers, who is just a walking killing machine we never saw speak in the movies as an adult as far as I'm concerned. And as for a Killer like the Legion, they literally have themselves as a group of four people so I don't know if all four seek communication with others besides themselves, because considering their lore,4 comments 811 views last activity

Mikaela & Sable/Je-Zable (TRYKS) – The Hidden Orchestrator? Last time, we explored the idea that Julian wasn’t just Mikaela’s friend, but possibly The Unknown in disguise.

What if it was TRYKS all along ? 👀 Looking at the lore side by side, the connection between Mikaela and Sable feels lop1 comments 94 views last activity

Quick note. Everything I'm about to say is pretty loose theory. There's no hard evidence nor confirmation to confirm this, but I still think it's an interesting idea regardless. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: As of right now, there are eight survivor perks known as the "Lost Tapes" perks. Each of these perks includes a quote from an unknown voice, presumably a survivor.

This is an interesting point of discussion I found scrolling through DbD's socials. With this Masquerade being the last one, people are wondering what will happen to Tryks, and there are many options, but that's not the main point. Among these discussions, sometimes someone starts wondering if Tryks isn't the person Sable will once become. There definitely are some pieces of evidence towards i8 comments 251 views last activity

Time moves differently and disjointedly in the Entity's realm. One of the few to canonically escape is Alan Wake, but whilst he reappeared from the lake 13 years later, it's been stated by Sam Lake time worked differently in the Dark Place, so Alan could have been in there for hundreds of years, and possibly many of those in the Entity's realm.

Been awhile since I've been here but I am curious on something and need other people to figure this idea out. If Ken fight each DBD killer, would Ken win? I'm asking because someone thinks that Ken stomps on every killer that's in DBD. But I have doubt, I think characters like Vecna, Dracula and possibly Albert Whesker could have a chance against him.

Lets actually take a minute to piece together the worldbuilding of Dead By Daylight. Basically MOSTLY every playable map in the game isn't the ACTUAL place that the Survivors/Killers came from, but rather a simplistic somewhat replica that the Entity made from the memories of the people it brings in, one exception being the Garden of Joy which is sat up on an Overlap.

I was just looking at character lore and just realised Orela is trans. Her model character chest looks pretty flat and transition doesn't always means going thru surgery/medication. Do you think she went thru any of those or she only transitioned socially? (changing alignment and stuff but without physically change)0 comments 42 views last activity

A little bit more meat than our usual Survivor-only licensed chapter (are these still called paragraphs?) since we have two folks to talk about (even though one of them is literally unplayable for some reason), and neither one is reduced to a singular paragraph.

At first glance, it may seem like a far-fetched question. After all, they originate from entirely different mythologies, penned by different authors, in separate fictional universes.

It makes no sense to me, especially that we can disprove some of the killers easily. Myers came out in 2016, back when moris were able to kill people without hooking them even once. Every killer had the ability to do what myers does until now and the only reason he has this ability now is because devs didn't touch him that much. His model is really outdated, power is really bad and the only good22 comments 802 views last activity
