Lore

Discussions about the Entity's realm
  • I’m sure this has been asked before so apologies, but I scrolled back a few pages and couldn’t see it. Where’s the best place to read lore? Each character has an information button in-game where there’s some (usually brief) lore, and the game’s website has some detailed character lores but doesn’t seem to have one for every character. And obviously none of that covers the entity or other NPCs or

  • I think the entity is being smart so it has the realms more on the surviver side so they can have more hope.it also explains why there is flashlights,pallets,and closets

  • Jill doesn't have a lot of lore related to DBD but it does say that she was engulfed by the fog like the original characters. That means she's Jill in the Entity's realm and not a character from another video game. It doesn't make sense, then, that Feng can cosplay as her. Same goes for Felix and Chris.

  • In one of the cosmetics of doctor it's mentioned that he got an entire ship full of people to experiment on from the entity. This means that more killers are rewarded by doing great job by her. This is extremly horrifying looking at some killers that we have, like Freddy...

  • Some people online were recently talking about Greg on the TV show "Abbott Elementary" showing autistic traits without explicitly labeling him autistic and I immediately thought about Jonah and his similarities to that. Like, how his backstory, his perks and the descriptions on some of his outfits fits that bill: He's deeply invested in a narrow set of interests He's fixated on exposing bad ac

  • I know this might sound stupid but in a tomb video it shows someone turing into blight with the blighted skin so I'm confused since I thought skins aren't cannon. Are there two versions of blight or did he turn back into a human?

  • Lore wise, do you think they interact with one another when not chasing survivors, or are they simply isolated individually in their own corner of the realm ?

  • I would love to see a skin for Jake Park were instead of him being an outcast and living off the grid on the edge of the woods, He has completely embraced his heritage that his father passed down to him and has became a successful CEO. I was thinking like a coat much like Adam Francis's and a suit to match underneath. For his face he could have a fresh executive cut with some Ray-Ban sunglasses o

  • I've fully read each killer's backstory but I've realized that all of the female killers are technically killer because they had horrible stuff happening to them, the closest killer to being purely evil or a serial killer prior to being taken is maybe Nurse. But she only began killing the patients due to the abuse she faced for two decades & manipulation from that one patient in her Tome lore

  • I'll keep this short and salty: Expanding lore is fine and dandy, but this whole 'everything is interconnected' thing bhvr has going since the blight chapter, this whole 'black vale' cult etc... It takes something away. Because it feels like there's no actual room to expand the characters. Cause you just KNOW that at this rate bhvr will reveal that Dwight's boss and Bayshore are connected to t

  • So I've come across one of the wraith's outfits that suggests he tries to woo the nurse, and the nurse has an outfit using the same name. Also was looking at the wraith's page on the dbd wiki and there's an image in the gallery of him dancing with the nurse. Is this a genuine canon thing? The pic could be fan art but the outfit has an on game description that the wraith sings to the nurse and w

  • Hello there! I've been a fan of DbD since the early days, but got around to play it almost 2 years ago. That's not important. What I'm tryna say is I have never sat down and read the lore from the characters. Just recently something made me start reading some characters stories and Jonahs story caught my eye. I like the numbers, coordinates, that he's smart and the twist at the end with the exac

  • I had a dream last night and I've dreaming of playing DBD. I can remember I played as Jake and Mikaela Reid is following me . The map is somewhat new to me and it was possibly was second Withered Isle map. I've seen that Jake and Mikaela blessed 2 dull totems at the same time. and they have blessed them for 8 seconds faster instead of 14 seconds . I was thinking: Is this the new perk tha

  • As we won't possibly ever get any additional lore for the ST cast, I found it quite interesting to think of your own story for them. I don't think my story is great, but I made it in my own way. The funky monkey way! It doesn't have anything to do with Stranger Things, it's just based off of the ice cream obsession. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xIgWczIB8h0&t=277s

  • What kinds if characters? For me personally, here are a few - a scar crow killer, who was ether brought to life by witchcraft, or a person that was killed and stuffed inti it - an underwater and land killer based on mythology - a shapshifting killer - a killer similer to wanda maximoff, someone who was kindnapped and experimented on and got powers from it -a bioenginerd killer, created by sc

  • Just doing some fan work writing imagining how Joey's tome would be and comparing with Soldiers of Mayhem and I noticed a contradiction. Julie only comes up with the name 'The Legion' on the night they attack the hardware store which is of course their last night in the normal world. However we know that Jeff did the mural for the Legion at some point before that. There's no way they could have

  • I know in the developer stream it was said that the Attack on Titan Collection would be "cosplay," but the in-game descriptions for the Titan skins call them "creatures from a lost realm," as opposed to costumes. They are also classified as Ultra Rare, which I remember @Mandy once said the rule of thumb is that they are entirely new characters. Does that mean you are playing as a scaled-down ve

  • There's been players who asked for a killer that can teleport to lockers and we got Dredge. I'm sure there players asking for a gun-based killer which lead to Deathslinger. Seems like BHVR does listen to what fans want next as a killer in terms of mechanics. With that being said, which of these sounds the most hype to you? (Also this is in lore because for some reason it wouldnt let me post

  • Hey everyone, I've gotten hooked on DBD since starting a little more than a year ago. I stayed because I loved the lore and the notion of killers and survivors being trapped in the Entity's realm and my own hopes of the story going in a direction of beating the Entity. So far with this tome, Tome 12, I've been the entries about the Blight story and that of Tomas, a man who enters into fog in

  • I know it's not canonically stated but is it theoretically possible? Philip Ojomo came to the United States somewhere between 1970 and 1984, Joey was born in 1978 and the only known family is a single Mum, yes in Canada but who knows what she was up to. Philip and Joey share a fair bit in common and have very similar personality types. Both generally keep their head down and do their work regard

  • Based on what we've seen written and shown about it - the sense that I get is that the Dredge is not very intelligent at all; maybe about at the level of a dog? It, for all intents and purposes, is a profane monstrosity created to be a servant of the entity. All it really needs to do is be obedient and spread terror, which it can probably accomplish without much more conniving than a stalking amb

  • As usual for a licensed chapter, there's basically no lore for these three, but Rebecca and Albert still got more than usual, and it is leagues better than what we got in the last RE PTB (which was quite literally nothing). Ada Wong Everything about Ada Wong was an enigma. Her history, her nationality, her allegiances, her motives, even her real name was a mystery. Was she a corporate spy work

  • Us, as the player, take on the role of survivors and killers. But would the Entity know? Is the entire game just a connection to the Entity and it just uses us as a tool to sustain itself much like the survivors and killers? I feel to some degree it would be aware. An eldritch being after-all is usually powerful enough to see through different dimensions. Are we actually just living inside o

  • In M.Cote’s interview with “king” and “Pauline Esther” he said that a killer could not also exist as a survivor, I don’t understand how this can be the case as multiple versions of the same person CAN exist at the same time (i.e four bills loading into a match, etc). This also links back into stopping of blighted events despite Talbots grimes still existing (nemisis and pyramid head outfits)

  • Jonah Vasquez is one of the most hated survivors in the game and the main reason is the lore making him a war criminal. BHVR tried to say a political messages of the Chile Dictatorship but made the bad side the Survivor like how are we supposed to root for them if they killed multiple people then just brushed it off 😕 (Pixel Bush goes into great detail on what makes his story Problematic and

  • I would have to say zarina. I may be biased because i love her, but i think she is the most morally good person. She puts herself into dangerous situations and even goes out of her way to avenge her fathers death by interviewing his own killer. She does all this simply because it's the right thing to do. She also has no problem with sacraficing herself so that another person can live, which is

  • Has anyone readed about her? She was in many lore entries and in the anniversary year 6 she got revealed a bit.. So.. Next original killer like blight or surv haddie Kaur? One of the examples is she was responsible for the masks from the masquerade.. And she seems to design/sketches some killer and monster outfits so I'm curious about her

  • Everyone is aware of this body here. Now here's my theory on who that is... It's the observer. Just think the last scene from the observer was going into a party room where he was surrounded and now is probably dead. I guess the entity was upset from last year that the observer didn't even wish it a happy birth

  • I had an idea for a Killer to have started as a Survivor long ago (or in the future). This would be a Survivor who won trials all the time. Looped the Killer for the five gens and would get saves off hooks. This would happen all the time and the Survivor got tired of the trials being too easy and boring. In one of the chases the Survivor tried to go easy/change things up on the Killer and accid
