What if Tryks and Vigo joined Dead by Daylight? 👀

Hey everyone! I was thinking how cool it would be to finally see Tryks (the Twisted Masquerade host) and Vigo (the mysterious scientist from the lore) as actual playable characters in DBD - Tryks as a killer and Vigo as a survivor. They’re both such big parts of the game’s universe, and it feels like a missed opportunity not to have them in the Trials yet.

Would love to hear what you all think — do you like the idea of having Tryks and Vigo in the Fog?

(And yeah, excuse the AI image — not perfect, just a visual to go with the concept 😅)

    Ever notice how DBD is full of hidden puppeteers? Take Tryks — the Mad Designer, the mastermind behind the Twisted Masquerade, whose influence is everywhere if you know where to look. Alias? Je-Zable.

    Tryks isn’t just a name dropped in passing. She’s a puppet master, artist, trickster, and storyteller all rolled into one. And her alias - Je-Zable → Zable → Sable - isn’t a coincidence. It hints at fractured identities, a shadow of herself lingering as the playable survivor Sable.

    Her Footprints in Lore:

    • Tome III – Escalation: Sends a cryptic “birthday” invite tied to the Entity’s celebrations.
    • Tome VI – Divergence: Writings in the Chamber of Blood show her manipulative genius.
    • Tome XV – Ascension: Notes signed “Sweet Darkness” link her closer to the Entity.
    • Tome XVIII – Revision: Observer discovers her surreal cardboard/gingerbread realm — unmistakably her style.

    Fractured Identities: Comedy vs. Tragedy:
    🎭 Comedy Mask: In Greek theatre, comedy isn’t just “funny.” It exaggerates, mocks, twists reality, and thrives on chaos. Tryks embodies this: chaotic, playful, Harley Quinn - like energy, joy turned unsettling.
    🎭 Tragedy Mask: Tragedy shows inevitability, sorrow, restraint, and the cold truth of suffering. Sable embodies this: stoic, detached, the weight of inevitability.

    Inspiration Done Right:

    • Agatha Harkness: hidden, orchestrating events, dropping subtle breadcrumbs.
    • Harley Quinn: playful, chaotic, darkly humorous — joy twisted into something unsettling.
    • Like many archetypes in comics (Superman → Homelander → Wonder Man), Tryks isn’t a copy - she’s fully her own, blending hidden manipulation with chaotic charm.

    Fan Speculation:

    • New Killer/Survivor: Could she step into the Fog herself? Absolutely — wielding illusions, bending environments, and twisting reality into mind-bending chaos.
    • Next Event Architect: With the Twisted Masquerade behind us, Tryks could take the reins of DBD’s next big anniversary event. She’s already left her mark with collections like Alice in Wonderland — dramatic, surreal, and theatrical.

    Tryks isn’t just lurking in notes and Tomes. She’s been teasing her reveal for years.
    It wasn’t random. It was Tryks ALL Along. 🎶
