Lore

Discussions about the Entity's realm
  • Okay now this one is a spin on if survivors became Killers because I'm actually interested to know what exactly The Killers would do if they became survivors. I give you an example of what I mean. Let's take the nurse for instance. Her perks can be reworked to allow her to heal your teammates faster in to see teammates that are healing at a distance.

  • when Benedict is describing Kate he says that “To remain so positive and upbeat in such a place would require a will of iron. Perhaps less a ray of sunshine then, but a bolt of lightning? Brilliant light and great power that could split the world in two.'' Which seems like he believes that she may open a way out because she has so much hope. What do y’all think about that?

  • Hello, everyone. It is RogueGoddess. I just wanted to let everyone know that I am going to be doing YouTube videos concerning different aspects of DBD, and my opinions of what things are. My analysis on each of the killers and survivors will be purely psychological. However, this week's video ((which will be broadcast on Friday, 6/22/2018 at 5pm EST via PlayStation Live Stream)) will be purely

  • There is something in common for most maps in the game. Well, for all of them, except for Gideon meat plant and red forest. Its always fullmoon. In red forest its always raining, and clouds all over the sky. In Gideon meat plant we just can't see sky. Moon couldn't be seen near exit gates aswell. For all other maps I made screenshots, so you can see for yourself. I'd like to thank @greenzebra6

  • Okay this isn't really a discussion on gameplay. Like Claudette, why does she have self care? Shes a botanist, so Botany Knowledge makes sense, I can understand Empathy being more of a personality trait, but where does self care come in? I think if anyone should have that it should be Jake. Also Jake and Meg need to switch perks. Meg should have "Iron Will" and Jake should have "Quick and

  • I know the dev stream back a little while said they aren't kept together but alluded towards the possibility they can in fact reach one another on occasion. Where are they? What do they do while they're there? How long is it between trials, or is there no "time" between trials because "time is relative in the Fog" yadda yadda?

  • I know the killers present are not any of the survivors, but supposedly the entity wears down each survivoruntil they turn to killing themselves. What sort of killer profile would each character have, and what abilities would each survivor get? Would Dwight be some Psychic killer who can sense people all over the place really well, and also depress their skills and abilities when in proximi

  • Why did the Wraith continue killing? Yes he was tricked into killing thousands of innocent people, but was there any reason in the lore?

  • Lets say a Killer decides to change his or her ways and try to survive or escape The Entity. In-Universe lore, what would happen?

  • It's said in Kate's lore that right before she was taken she was playing a song that was out of the ordinary for her. Melancholy and dark. Which makes me think that the somewhat melancholy survivor theme played with an acoustic guitar is being played by Kate. I know it must seem like a little bit of a stretch, but it at least makes some sense.

  • Something i have been wondering is do the survivors actually feel the cuts, slashes, and beatings ect? This is something I thought about after other question "Why don't the survivors fight back?" The devs answer was that they are in a nightmare world like state, like they want to do something but they have the mentality that they can't. If any survivors did fight back though I would say it wou

  • I know that the devs make a back story for the killers and the survivors but when you read it you want more. With this we can tall stores from before and after they enter the fog and the entity and if we make a good story how know maybe will be cannon. So what do you think. ( Just so you know i am amateur writer with a very good story for everyone ).

  • I believe the inclusion of the Pig and her macabre boxes shows how truly dreary and heartbreaking a situation it is for the survivors. The Saw movies were known for putting people in brutal situations, where they had to overcome fear and push through immense amounts of pain to get out of the “game” with their lives. Not all “participants” would even be able to bring themselves to start the act

  • This is a part of Kate's bio, She picked up her guitar and played, her fingers dancing across the fretboard. The music that she made this time was unlike her usual uplifting tunes, being much more melancholy, even dark. Still, something compelled her to continue, to finish the song. Does this mean that the Entity possessed Kate in order to summon it? After she finished the song, she clearly

  • So, as title says, my theory claims that there is no actual body transfer to Entity realm for survivors (and, probably, killers, but its not the point here). This theory gonna be long, and its begining gonna be well too far from main topic, so get prepared. This theory was originally posted in russian subforum by me. Yup, Iam russian. After I posted another theory (hi, @TheBretzel !) from he

  • There are two early online mentions of the "Survivors become Killers after losing all hope" theory I could find, the most popular probably being the often quoted "the LORE behind the MIST" by Steam user Shovel Fighter . The lore post is a popular one and one of the earliest lore summaries we have (15 Jun, 2016). It gives us a lengthy exposition about all sorts of lore and then a direct copy

  • It’s implied that as powerful and otherworldly as it is, the Entity is a mortal creature. When Survivors are sacrificed, the Entity steals a piece of their soul to increase its power, but the false hope of Survivors that they’ll escape the realm is what the Entity actually feeds on—as in, what it needs to sustain itself. Perhaps if the Entity is a mortal creature, it can be mortally wounded as we

  • -anoyk yeqkany'ye hvay'k l'gnoo eydokl'x: sekall'o ammk'ix -kw'zvre'od Both of theses phrases are written on the Anniversary weapons of certain Killers. If you put them on google traduction and detect language, you wont find anything relevant. BUT if you put the traductor in Urdu language, it can translate to English on a different orthograph. This is what they say : - anoy

  • Since the game was launched, each character's lore has been more detailed than the last, and always well written. The Clown's is basically a short story about the life of a man who became a killer. They're always fun to read. Whoever writes them deserves a raise.

  • Seriously, read Kate's bio and compare it to Taylor Swift's history. The two are strikingly similar. It's like The Entity kidnapped the real Taylor Swift and in the midst of all the madness, the country singer decided to use the alias 'Kate Denson'. Hell, if you met strangers in a dark, ominous fog, who can go from survivor to killer at any moment, wouldn't you use an alias to protect your ide

As always, I will not be going over the best builds, but purely psychological aspects of the character. Below is my video on the Trapper. I'm rather pleased with how the video turned out. Because of

  • Since we can assume that all the current survivors were taken from a different time, were any taken from an era that was more advanced than what we have right now? Not necessarily a big lore-breaker, just kind of interesting to think about. If I had to guess, I would say that Nea or Feng is the most modern of the survivors, I believe that one of Feng's shirts says 2017 for a championship, althoug

It'd be greatly appreciated if y'all could help me find the different versions of the characters' backstories that were put in but eventually changed/retconned, I'm not sure of all the ones that have changed but I do know that trapper, nea, and nurse's were, and possi

  • So since time and space doesn't affect the entity can it make itself rule into different dimensions? Take for example Bill who was pulled in from the left 4 dead universe (i think we all know what left 4 dead is).

  • So I've seen a lot of people here that are really interested about the lore.... so i really wanna make a group for all of us Entity Theorists. If you want to create a group, please comment here. the group will take place on Discord and these forums. I believe that we can even crack the Anniversary crypt if we work together. so are you ready to become one of Benedict's Disciples?

  • So, DbD being a game about killers and people trying to escape their twisted minds, I was thinking of the devs having one person in particular to collaborate with them and share his ideas for the creation of a new chapter that might turn out as one of the best ever released (along with Spark of Madness, a personal favorite). I'm talking about George "the Corpsegrinder" Fisher (death metal band Ca

  • I've read, and watched many discussions about a killer created by (or actually made of) the Entity. And I couldn't help but think of a killer that worshiped the entity when he was alive (making human sacrifices to it) mainly it would be a killer with a stronger connection to the entity. One that sought it out, not the other way around with most of the other killers. This could also bring quite a

  • Okay, so that might be a dumb question, but during the tutorial we can see that the survivors canonically have skillchecks, so how would that work? It's easy for us, players, to hit them, but as a real person, how would it be shown to them? I might just be overthinking a plot conveniency but I'm legit curious lmao

  • The Wrapped Broad Axe "Koshka" has an engraving on it. "Koshka" in Russian means a Cat. I don't recognize the engravings though, they are not Russian nor Urdu, so I thought they had to be the Entity's language. Still, I have a feeling I've seen them somewhere before but can't remember where. I've been searching hieroglyphs on google but none look even similar to these.

  • I don’t know if anyone else has talked about this but I believe it would be a amazing idea for the devs to create a chapter that includes the first survivor and or the first killer to be pulled into the realm it doesn’t have to be Benedict it’s just who comes to mind for me. What do you guys think would you buy a more lore based chapter and would you enjoy playing as the first survivor?

  • Of course, the survivors have to work together to "survive" in this weird realm they find themselves in, but that doesn't mean they have to like each other. Since they can never truly "die", and they have to live in this limbo for... however long the Entity wishes them to stay there, could it be possible that some survivors don't like one another? Is it a kind of dislike that leads to leaving
