Discussions about the Entity's realm

So is pinhead stealing the entity's victims?
with his mori he drags the survivor to hell. so unless the entity has hell within his realm then this means pinhead is literally stealing his victims?
could pennywise even be in this game?
If I recall pennywise is actually deadlights he isn't a clown at all the clown is his avatar. he is a being similar to the entity i don't see how the entity can contain a being similar to himself.
What are the potential Implications of the entity corruption all over RPD?
As we all know by now the entity manifests itself in a variety of ways throughout the trial, be it to the aid of the killer or exceptionally rarely the aid of the survivor. More prominently we are aware that the entiriety of any trial we partake in is "made" of the entity in a way. The ground we walk on is essentially its…
Why can you blind The Demogorgon and The Executioner?
Both of them are inhuman monsters without eyeballs. Yet survivors can still blind them with flashlights, flashbangs, and firecrackers. Is there really any logical explanation to this in the lore? Like, The Entity purposefully makes them able to be blinded or something? Is The Demogorgon's mouth sensitive to light? Is The…
is it possible for ghostie to get an archives someday?
Ghostface is technically a licensed character, but his lore is entirely original. so do you guys think an archives for him is possible?
So I'm wondering this about the cosmetics
So the cosmetics are I know cosmetics so they don't affect the actual game but I always wondered, did any actual killer wear that stuff during their lifetime like Evans mining gear and doctors suit?
Nurse Lore retcon?
So now that we've had time to digest that horrific new Nurse lore from a few months back, do any of you folks on the forum (Or possibly devs lol) see that cutscene being changed at all to better reflect who the Nurse was in the original lore blurb? I'm seriously really disappointed that she was changed THIS MUCH compared…
Do you think Oni misses his wife & child?
I have no idea if he even cares about them because his lore hasn't been expanded upon yet, but I feel like its 50/50. There's a good chance he's insane & believes he was killing false samurais for the good if his family & would thus miss them or he didn't miss them at all because killing people was all that was important…
The Legion Julie's main outfit
Hello, I'm planning to make life size busts of all the legion members but I'm just wondering what Julie's main outfit/ mask is lore wise? I don't think it's the standard Julie cosmetic because its just a gender swapped Frank and that would be kinda weird if they would wear the same clothing. I honestly think the bush party…
Does Hopper know that Steve and Nancy disappeared?
Well, I was rewatching Stranger Things season 2 and I always wondered, how Hopper and the boys always got to the bottom of a whole mess like when they kidnapped Will or the appearance of the mind skinner. I always wondered, if in the alternate universe of Stranger Things, Hopper and the boys know that Steve, Nancy and…
Lore Dive: Meg Thomas
Overview: While being one of multiple survivors to have been focused more in the Archives, Meg Thomas is still one of the most mysterious survivors for a couple specific reasons. She may seem like a fairly simple character on the surface, being commonly depicted as someone who competes in competitive sports to obtain a…
Evolving to a new environment
I had a realisation today and discovered that 1 the demogorgon you play in the game is likely a random pick from the mind layers horde, and most importantly this demogorgon has been slowly changing to suit its new surroundings which is shown by the cosmetics it has received. If the demogorgon changes because it's under a…
The infection
What would happen to most of the killers if they were infected by the T-virus?
Jake's tome seems like a retcon...
I've been reading his tome for quite some time now (both leak & official, they are the same anyway) and it kind of annoys me that his character is kind of a retcon to his original storyline. - His "brother" was accepted to Yale while Jake was still in school, yet he's the older sibling? - He was told to be surviving in the…
which killer is the smartest?
I honestly dont know. they are all probably smart in their own way thou
I have so many questions that I don't have the answers to....
1: how did the blight putted his Medicine on a lot of killers like trapper and wraith and others without getting killed? 2:what is the whole story of dbd? (cuz i searched for it and i didn't find anything) 3: who is the observer? plz give me answers if you have 😘
What happened to Benedict Baker?
Truthfully, I always wondered what happened to him after his story, he was a journalist, something similar investigating the disappearances of the town of Weeks, Washington, home of Macmillan State, 300 cases of missing persons and later being him, one of them. There really were older survivors who were victims of the…
It's possible Clown could be racist in his tome
He's from the 30's & his father was a terrible parent. Guessing from the teaser his tome will take place during his childhood, but I wouldn't count that out just because he's young. Lastly, he collects fingers as a hobby which is a huge red flag for a terrible personality. Clown just looks like the kind of person who would…
The irony of the Descend Beyond chapter title
I'm not sure how many of you are aware of the significance of the chapter name. But for those of you who are unaware, it is a play on a quote from The Blight himself, which reads as follows. "To understand the human condition, one must rise above it." Talbot wished to rise above the human condition. Instead, with the…
One headcanon about the lore you would ignore any real lore for!
Mine is that Yui is just Johnny Bravo but female and Japanese. I will ignore any lore that BHVR puts out to the contrary.
Question about Ultra Rare Skins
This is realistically one of the most unimportant things for DBD, but I love the concept, so there is something I’ve been wondering. Besides that, this is going to be a long explanation for something this insignificant, so if this seems boring to you, then feel free to just ignore it, I don’t want to waste your time. We’ve…
Moved: I don't get it
This discussion has been moved.
undeniable proof that the survivors and killers can somehow interact between trials
teachables. they teach each other how to use each others perks. how else could they be tought?
Amanda rules set for every survivor
Imaging Amanda playing rules set for every survivor. I wonder how this will look like. Here is my idea on one : Hello Laurie I want to play a game. You have proven to be an experienced survivor. However that have cost you your humanity and morals. Countless times you have injured people around so it's time you face the…
Are lores getting a bit to out of hand
So I was thinking you look at someone like Dwight and his lore it's short but still tells what happened now look at someone like I don't know Felix his lore is long. I don't know which character started the long lore but well I just saying maybe they could dial back on the lore not being short bur not being long basically…
The Google Paragraphs: Paragraph 1 - Left Handed Golf Clubs
Google takes a different turn now in understanding more about the Entity's realm and those within it, as it focuses on the first of the Paragraphs: Bill Overbeck. In this new translation, we discover a unique mission, and at what cost a sacrifice is worth: It took two days for the nose to cool in the peppermint wind, a…
Movie about Legion
Hey, so Legion is my favourite killer so far and his lore is amazingly interesting so i was wondering if there was some movie about him or atleast something similiar. If u know any interesting movies that are similiar to his friends and him lore u can tell me !
Lol I'm Not A Lore Guy
IT: Exists. The Dark Tower: Related to IT's universe. Dead by Daylight: Observer held in tower. Is it time to just say ######### it and throw IT into the game cause towers?🤣
What are legendary skins??
So, the Legendary skins that turn a survivor into a different person, such as Leon Kennedy becoming Chris Redfield, and Jill Valentine becoming Claire Redfield. Are these like, an actual thing in the lore, or simply here for cosmetic purposes for the players? Like, does the Entity allow these specific survivors to become…
The New Lore Is Dumb Though
Look someone had to say it: Calling the Entity the Hole in Elodie's backstory? Dumb. Memory Loss after trials? Contradicts previous lore, actual gameplay and is dumb cause it strangles any story you might want to do in future with all these characters you've got trademarked. Making Philip into the Punisher of DBD? Dumb,…
Should I buy the Resident Evil Chapter?
I got this question… Should I buy the Resident Evil Chapter? I just like Resident Evil and I watched some YouTube videos and the perks in actions looks so interesting. I still don’t have the game on Switch and willing if you guys actually think of this. Should I buy it with the Silent Hill Edition? (Sorry if it’s on the…
Is Hope a renewable resource that the Entity is just bad at using?
I mean in the real world it a hundred percent IS a renewable resource. I think the Entity is just so inhuman it literally does not know how humans work and thus has been wasting resources this whole time. Wouldn't that be funny? No, actually, it would be tragic given all the people who got voided thanks to the Entity just…
Who would be the Main Protagonist Of DBD?
IVote first then watch the following)If you want to:) btw this isnt my channel
Myers doesn't respect the Entity
I like the idea that Michael doesn't care about the Entity. You know, why should he sacrifice people if he can just kill them? When I play Myers I don't care about sacrificing, there is only one goal: kill them all with my own hands. And save my little sister :3
Looking at Deathslinger and Zarina's lores...
Reading into their lore entries again... It makes me sad there's the implication that Bayshore and the warden perhaps survived after all while all of Caleb's posse died. Because if the 'mad mick massacre' IS a reference to when caleb stormed the prison, it means it got watered down instead of made weirder. such stories…
Killer Campfire?
We all know the lore of Survivors reuniting with one another again and again by the campfire after their attempts at escape. But what does the lore say about Killers? I can't even speculate because I genuinely don't know if this has been addressed or not. Do the Killers have a neutral ground where they go between rounds?…
Who thought of a Non-Horror genre Licensed Chapter idea?
I'm just saying this for a bit of fun, but I would be interested in a DBD chapter that is licensed and NOT from a horror themed genre, so not a horror film or horror game or whatever. but has a certain character that would fit perfectly as a killer for DBD, it can also add a survivor character who wouldn't seem to have…
Nemesis & the Entity
Now that the lore of Nemesis has just been released, is it possible that the Entity is manipulating Nemesis into thinking it’s his commander, just like how Plague seeing it as one of her gods? Let me know what you think?
Monsters? Why?
Please stop making MONSTERS to the game of KILLERS and MANIACS. Why MONSTERs need to hook humans? It's nonsense ! It's ridiculous ! Monsters must want to tear up and eat !
why do some killers kill?
I feel like there's a major inconsistency in the lore with how some killers just don't really have a reason to kill the survivors. like legion only killed that one guy because they essentially had to or else they'd get caught vandalizing that store, they wouldn't have a reason to start going out and killing random people.…
What is each killer’s emotional motivation?
Some killers, like Spirit and Deathslinger, have very clear motivations and emotional “niches.” Spirit is the embodiment at rage of being wronged, Deathslinger is the embodiment of vengeance-seeking vigilante justice. Nurse is the embodiment of absolutely losing it when you have too much work to do, and plague is the…
what motivates the entity to buffs and nerf killers ?
title
New Killer “The Thing” in DBD.
What does everyone think about The Thing being added to DBD as a killer? I think it would super cool, unique, and a smart decision for the game. I hear there is a new The Thing movie in production and I think this would help promote that movie or keep every up to date for those that aren’t familiar with it, The Thing would…
freddy seems like the only killer that can escape.
freddy can go into survivors dreams so theoretically he could escape by jumping from dream to dream
So the entity took "test subject 1"
if you look at the skin test subject 1 that's clearly not the doctor and it says it's a device allowing him to mind control people. So that's a victim mind controlled by the doctor. So the entity is allowing killers to bring their own victims into the world?
Do you think this could be a hint to a future chapter?
Not sure how many of you read the lore entries, but this one in particular strikes me as potential for a new chapter. Do you think it could hint at a chapter, and if so, would you be excited for a future-vampire chapter?
Y'know, About Bloodpoints...
Is there a canon reason why they're triangles?
The Google Chapters. Chapter 3: of the Abyss and the Ear
Things start to get macabre with this 3rd chapter, but there is depth beneath the wounds as Google sees it. In this chapter, what strange habits did Ace develop to survive school? How badly messed up is Lisa's anatomy? And where does drinking water take you? Let's see what Google shows us: Ace Attorney Ace Attorney is one…
This was the first thing I thought of when reading Elodie's lore
The moral of this story is The Hole is a really bad name and I can't take it remotely seriously.
Is Yun-Jin Lee a killer candidate?
We know survivors can become killers, her entry mentions her embracing the darkness within herself. The Spirits obsession based perk seems to imply she dragged her father into the trials as revenge. Inspite of his egotism The Trickster does not seem like he would truly be happy with the "indie fan base" he has in the…
