Lore

Discussions about the Entity's realm
  • So I found some free time recently to finally start reading over the Artist’s lore, and I’m pretty confused so far. I know each killer is supposed to have some kind of fundamental emotion that compels them to bring NOED every match (The Pig and her jealousy, the Plague and her devotion, the Trickster and his terrible fashion choices), but Carmina just seems like a nice painter with a dead family.

  • I've always wondered if a Killer could grow a human connection (maybe legion?) and for the entity decide that they'll be more of use as a survivor.. Or a survivor getting darker and darker thoughts getting pushed into their mind by the entity to become a killer...?

  • So this is like half theory half guessing, but I think I've figured some things out about the characters and what "Terras" (as they call them in the lore) they come from. I've always been under the impression that most, if not all, characters came from different terras. The only real exceptions up to this point were the Yamaokas and then Blight, Felix, Twins, and Elodie. However, after watching a

  • Ok so in the back story and I think some cosmetics they go on about his "edgy new style" after his group died. How is bright fluorescent edgy? I have only heard edgy being used to describe people who dress in black, are morbidly dramatic about things etc. (I get murder could be described as edgy but... that wasn't common knowledge) So I don't get how mr. christmas tree is "edgy"

  • For the first time since Ash vs. the Evil Dead , we have actual, in depth lore for licensed characters (although, I guess Cheryl was somewhat in depth, but it wasn't on the level of anyone from Leatherface to Ash). So here it is. Yoichi Asakawa As a child, Yoichi gained an interest in the supernatural from his father and mother when an inexplicable curse claimed both their lives. As an adult,

  • Do you guys think Jonah knew about Doctor? I mean, both Jonah and Doc worked for the CIA. So is it possible Jonah was aware of what Doc had done or was Doc’s involvement with the agency like super-classified?

  • Dark Souls (+ Bloodborne) and DBD are set in the same universe. think about it: Whenever you die, you return to a fire, but you're still trapped in a cycle of death and loss until you no longer have the will to exist and become a husk (get sent to the void/become fully hollowed) Fog permeates the world. most weapons are comically large. shadowy tendrils are responsible for all the bad th

  • So, throughout this event, I have been in the process of P3-ing Laurie. (Because I think her face rework looks fantastic). And I have noticed something interesting about her. She is seemingly the only character that is self aware that she is in The Entity's realm. The description for the P3 clothing is usually just detailing it, or maybe making a joke; but not Laurie. The description for her P3

  • I know this is probably a silly and obvious answer, but why are these logs called “Arcus”? Is there some meaning behind it? Is it a name?

  • I think it'd be neat if there was some lore magic combination of number that have significance to the entity. Sort of like 777 is lucky, 666 is bad luck, or has some religious meaning.

  • With every new survior or killer realesed that bhvr made themselves their is a startling connection. In the form of lore well include some form of dad being bad.. Or having a issue or experiencing death. Below is a list of o.g killers with some of daddy problem or unfortunate event related to le dad . Trapper : father was abusive. . Hillbilly : abusive dad 2 electric boogaloo .wraith

  • So this is more of a theory I've had for the past years but it's been pretty much confirmed now. Originally the lore that the devs gave us was that The Entity put survivors through trials to feed on their hope right? And also adding a killer making them having a slim chance of escaping each trial. Well, I actually think that The Entity is feeding on the killers hope instead, and survivors are j

  • In Jonah's backstory, he decrypts codes that were used to bomb civilians unintentionally making him a war criminal. It feels rushed and it doesn't affect him saying 3 paragraphs later it's not brought up again. To me, it feels like they were trying to do something similar to Yun-jin where their actions cause deaths but with Yun-Jin she was written as a strictly gray character with selfish flaw

  • So her lore doesn't put her as a killer as such but a victim of her father but the entity apparently took her due to her desire for vengeance against her father but the survivors are not her father. Which begs the question is she even aware of what she's doing?

  • First off, don't get me wrong. I completely understand that her driving motivation is to stay employed and that she has reasons not to turn in the Trickster even if she does suspect him; it would stain her name and ruin her career. And I like her that way - she's not a bad person, but she's not a good one either. We could use some less unambiguous altruists in the survivor roster. And three entri

Sunsets, architecture, a blade of grass–he saw more within them than eyes could gleam. He understood the language that explained them–mathematics–complex equations that continually played out around the universe to

  • So, I wanted to take a break from just playing killer for a bit so I decided to deep dive in DBD lore and just relax, and honestly, it's all so cool. So I was wondering, what's your favorite thing about the lore in dbd?

  • Did she know what he was actually doing behind the scenes all this time? There's some hints that she did, but is it confirmed? By her lore, if she knew she wouldn't speak up because she cares more about her job than anything. I personally think she definitely knew, which just makes her more defined than any other survivor.

  • Carmina was in her late teens when her younger brother had passed away, and she blamed herself for not being able to save him. Her brother had wandered off one morning, only for her family to later find the remains of his clothing by the river, quickly realizing that he had drowned. Carmina should have been watching after him that morning, and she tried to play the moment over and over again in h

  • I love to read and learn about the lore within DBD. And I wanted to know more about the realms within DBD. I've always known about the Spirit World because I used to main Nurse. And I also knew that Wraith could enter it because before I was a Nurse main, I used to main Wraith xd Anyways. I just found out that The Spirit don't enter the Spirit World when she was Phasing. She's, in fact, enteri

But what happened to Feng Ming when the pressures of being the coolest in class became unbearable? And what happened at the "Experimental Cocktail Club" set up by Herman Carter? Let's find out: Feng Min Feng Min was a young Memphis truck driver when she first picked up a trophy in Play

  • I'm curious to know what everyone thinks is the canonical response to getting that hook on the last survivor. Do they just walk away? Do they just stand there and stare at the survivor? I'd like to hear your thoughts. ^^

  • This is the one part of the lore that doesn't make sense to me. How did a well-renowned mathematician somehow miss his own birthday being hidden in a code for all of his life until the day he was taken by the Entity?

  • I mean there are some smaller ones like Pig or Legion. But for example Wraith is way taller than every Survivor. Is just he so tall or does the Entity make em tall so that he looks more frightening ?

  • I don't really know about the entity's realm but i see this realm as life after death, the life beyond. In real life i believe in life after death and also believe that in that place there is really no time. anything can happen forever there. If the entity is a parallel universe similar to this, and the survivors are there for "years", died countless times and saw terrifying killers and suffere

  • So this is something that I thought about in the recent days. Why would the entity allow others to work with Blight and have a Killer who is essentially full of the stuff if it’s his or her weakness? Because I believe this is just another way to give the survivors false hope and feed off that hope until they get the crushing realization that they have been had.

  • Let’s say all the killers currently in the entity’s realm. Escape. What would they do? Would they just shrug it off as a dream is something? Or go back to killing.

  • So, now that The Blight is in the realm as a Killer, and it's been said that blighted events have ended, has there been a Lore explanation for why the events no longer happen? Where does the entity stand with its yearly purge? Has its biology changed, and the purge is no longer needed? The Blight himself could not have possibly drained every drop of serum from all realms within the reach of the E

  • First off, he looks nothing like himself in neither the anime style animations nor the cutscene, so I'm genuinely confused. In the former he looks like a 19yo twink, and in the latter he has the neck of a seasoned boxer and the face of a 35yo cartel boss. Second, I feel like he doesn't even look like he did in his own trailer vs in-game, I'm genuinely confused on that front. There's like a range

  • From what I remember, Nemesis was programmed by Umbrella to locate and kill S.T.A.R.S members. Canonically speaking, Nemesis hunting the other survivors doesn't make sense (then again what does in this game). Is there a chance the Entity commanded him to hunt them as well?

  • According to recent leaks, there will not be a Blight-focused event for Halloween this year. Instead, there will be a pumpkin-focused event. In the Hallowed Blight lore, the Blights are a yearly purge The Entity undergoes. With the introduction of a different event this year, does this mean The Entity no longer needs to purge itself each year? I'm not sure why The Entity had to undergo a purge, b

When I heard this, I was shocked! In any of the lore videos I have ever heard of this! (And it is not Dcing, of course) Does anyone have any theory, any possible path? Could maybe this explain the existen
