Discussions about the Entity's realm

So with endgame collapse the Entity is getting more involved with the trials. Does this mean it is impatient and just wants some dinner or it is helping the killer?10 comments 462 views last activity

The entity, the big bad of the franchise, the puppet master contorting killers into an endless chase with survivors for both its amusement and sustenance. But what is the entity in its true form? It's Nea... Jk But follow me down the rabbit hole as we figure out everything about this great evil in what I like to dub "the auric cell entity theory" we will find out where it came from, how old it1 comments 322 views last activity

I recently read Jane’s bio and I think it’s implying she crashed? But if you read Kate’s or Claudette’s or Meg’s bio it’s like they disappeared into thin air? So are they all dead? And is the Entity’s realm basically a never ending hellscape?17 comments 803 views last activity

The horror and the suffering I’ve been through is unfathomable, limitless and eternal. I have no understanding of it, nor do I care anymore. I’m an empty shell compared to who I was, to who I wanted to be. Hope has faded away and all that remains is eternal darkness, endless silence, nothing… The thoughts rush to me, lost memories of old friends, good company and honest smiles. Real love, real f0 comments 112 views last activity

I’ve always wondered about the cosmetic posters and if they are tied into the lore in any way. If they are like the one above are the survivors able to go back in time or travel places? Does the entity make these realms as well? There’s also a Jane poster with her painting The Trapper and it came into my mind if the survivors and killers get along after t0 comments 252 views last activity

How come there are no children present in the Entity's world? No kid survivors or kid killers? Wouldn't kids be an easier target since they are easily prone to losing hope and do the bidding of the entity?74 comments 3,342 views last activity

Dimension 0 (The Dream World): Only used by Freddy to use his abilities. Dimension 1 (The Trials): Where the in-game action takes place. The Entity starts generating the map from within the trial, going off memories of the killers and in rare cases the survivors. She decides where everything goes, and if she shows a little mercy to the survivors with the generation, or allows the killer to d2 comments 212 views last activity

So I've been wondering how the Legion technically works. After discussion I've had with a friend about how the legion work for the entity. Granted I've never been one who's had the impression that the Legion with fused into one body it's never made sense to me as we all have different body types and skin tones. It also seems to be what they were more heavily implying during the creation of the L7 comments 353 views last activity

From what we've seen from Benedicts journal entries at least up until Kate anyway every survivor seems to react differently in the Fog to be others. My question is who do you think is the nicest Survivor to their fellow survivors and who do you think it's the worst Personally I think it's between Kate or David for who is the nicest. David will go out of his way to take hits on people if the9 comments 542 views last activity

I know when a survivor runs out of hope, they are cast into the void by the entity instead of the old theory they become killers. but what if a survivor that is still in the trials snaps, and murders a fellow survivor during a trial? would the entity accept them as a killer?6 comments 252 views last activity

В мире Сущности существуют множество измерений, с одними и теми же маньяками, или когда один игрок играет за одного убийцу, а другой за этого же, но в разных играх это просто игровая условность и каждая игра происходит по порядку? Тогда почему в игре может попасться несколько одинаковых сурвов?3 comments 62 views last activity

I don't know if I ship them, but I believe Amanda admires Michael's way of how he contains himself, as Kramer would have wanted, how Michael doesn't let himself be known to others, he can be calm and reserved and in an instant, his urge to kill from his stalking turns him into a blood thirsty monster, filled with rage, Michael outsmarts the survivor, she knows that Michael could kill the survivor14 comments 992 views last activity

Whenever a survivor escapes the match, what if: (By Hatch Only) They still have the Reverse Bear Trap on them The Plague's Sickness Legion's Deep Wound (Actually, that c an be healed by other campfire survivors easily, no problem.) Doctor's Madness Still in Dream World (Well, other Campfire Survivors can wake you up, easy as that) But that would mean that the Plague can just spread the4 comments 362 views last activity

We haven't actually seen it yet, but there have been tales, that if a survivor was to lose all hope, they would eventually be forced to become a killer. Do you see this happening at any point in the future? If not, why? Could we maybe see Benedict as a killer later on? And what would be Nea's reasons to reveal herself to be an actual overpowered killer? What's missing from her story?20 comments 662 views last activity

Alright, so each killer has a perk called a "Teachable" perk, when you hit 30/35/40 on your level, you have to buy one, but that and the shrine are the only ways of getting them, so that means that specific killer is teaching the others how to use that to there full advantage, sounds absurd, but works7 comments 562 views last activity

So, the big baddie of the Dead By Daylight lore, the same thing we see kill us after 2 minutes of staring at a Leatherface on a hook, is one character we know next to nothing about and is really only known on the wiki. One large question I and others in the community ask is this: what is the Entity made of? Of course there's already the small description in the Auric Cell shop, but that really do8 comments 422 views last activity

The disease gives you painful boils on your skin and it is very contagious, was hillbilly born with this disease? He was kept away locked inside a tiny room for most of his life, yeah his parents were just cruel and evil to him but maybe they didn't want to get it so they locked him up not knowing there was a cure. The hillbilly is obviously VERY disfigured but he could also have leprosy, look at27 comments 811 views last activity

I may have read it wrong somewhere, but what I got from Benedict Cumberbatch Baker, is that the offerings are burned in the fire. And I assume this applies to the killers, they throw their offerings into the fire. The Hag has a Kirby like stomach, in which it is never full, and wants more, that's why she kills, for food. right? She is VERY hungry, so why does she throw away food into the fire,9 comments 472 views last activity

Frank: Every college wanted Frank, they were aware of his bad history but they were ready to make compromise, they knew of his speed and his athletic prowess, whatever it would take for Frank to come about of these high schools would occur at high priority, Frank didn't carry much academic interest, what was important to him was his group, his friends and his girlfriend, that was his largest prio3 comments 582 views last activity

What would happen if the license characters lost hope? who would be killer and who would go to the void? I think Quentin would go to the void because he would not have the courage to kill an innocent person,and we all know that that does not help the entity What is your opinion?2 comments 283 views last activity

With the new introduction of the End Game collapse footage, it appears as if the Entity is finally getting fed up...The question is, what would've caused something like this? Survivors having too much hope, maybe even being too cocky to the point where the Entity finally got fed up? It seems odd that this is NOW happening (lore-wise, game-play wise is because of reasons) and it doesn't really see20 comments 612 views last activity

Which killers would get beaten up by the strongest survivors (David King, Jeff or Jane. Jane because she charges at a killer with Head on so it's safe to assume she's not a weakling). Which killers would lose against one of these survivors in a fistfight. Trapper would straight up crush them, not a chance any of them would be able to fight back. Wraith would most likely be able to hold his own18 comments 652 views last activity

I wanted to start his discussion by saying I was inspired by a video to right this. Although I cannot link/remember the video exactly, briefly explaining it; It was about survivors winning the game with wraith looking defeated at the end gate, then they all appear back at the campfire, the fog appears and a new survivor appears. The moment I watched that video I realized something very big about4 comments 312 views last activity

So they promised Rin she'd get her revenge, and will the Entity let Rin kill her father, or are they tricking her? I personally think Rin is far too great of a threat for the entity to lie to her. But hey, what do I know.34 comments 822 views last activity

The developers said in this stream: ??? That the golden toolboxes were connected to the lore somehow but I dont know that anyone has figured out how yet. (also someone asked during a QnA "What is with that golden toolbox" and the devs replied with "Yeah, they were golden. And they're always out of reach. And there's more than just one. But I don't know. Can't say." "Can't say or won't say?3 comments 242 views last activity

Im curious on peoples thoughts of a possible story mode in the future. My idea would be that you take each killer and survivor and give them a 2-3 game scenario in which we explore how they got there what happens while they're there and what the endgame is. kinda want it for lore purpose but a bonus could be good practice and one time reward of bloodpoints for completion of each "Trial"17 comments 1,202 views last activity

So, would the entity be able to pull one of the deadites or demons from Ash vs evil dead into its realm? The demon Baal was kinda like the main antagonist for most of the show so I was wondering if the entity would be able to pull in another demon to do its bidding. @Detective_Jonathan I trust you with this case...1 comments 142 views last activity

At the end of the trial the killer and survivor are running in what looks like the same place. I saw on forums that the killer gets teleported hence the burning on your screen once trial ends but then why are they running?6 comments 252 views last activity

He might be the first survivor to actually speak. The devs have stated that the survivors prefer to not talk simply because they want to remain focused or something along the lines of that. But Ash, he's a different story, he would most likely be aggravating the killer with insults and so on. And in the studio, he looked like he was pretty much reading off a script, i think their might be some sp12 comments 1,612 views last activity

I know there probably isn’t a lore reason but why do characters get new clothes? Is the entity just like “oh honey those rags you been wearing just won’t do anymore, here take this” and gives them new outfits. How does cosmetics fit into the lore?8 comments 273 views last activity

I'm sorry if this has been discussed I saw one about the memories of the trial but I want to know people's thoughts on other memories. For example would the plauge remember the temple? Would freedy remember the pre school? This also brings me to Jeff would he recognise his own art work? Would the pig remember tapp? I would love to know any thoughts on this Thank you 🐷8 comments 222 views last activity

From what I recall, the Entity would never allow killers to meet each other, and I always interpret it as the entity being worried that if all the killers joined forces they can possible fight back or weaken it. The Entity would make sure to keep the killers under control and have them focused on their objective of killing survivors. So why then recently, are the Nurse and Wraith a couple?

they could add a trophy to dbd called Insinuation. This trophey would be obtained by sacrificing a survivor in order to kill the killer. The way this would work is all 4 survivors go into a game and they all have to collect fragments of the trap door. But instead of this being a normal trapdoor this would lead to the entity realm. When in the realm the killer would not know as he/she will still b24 comments 532 views last activity

There needs to be much more fleshing out of the entities motivations, because as things stand, this dark God doesn't really make any sense. Apparently, it is powerful enough to warp reality and trap mortals into an alternate plain of reality, block their routes of escape, interact with the physical world (destroying pallets) but requires the assistance of a third party, the killer, to secure t18 comments 531 views last activity
