Which killer has the most confusing lore

This also goes with their existing lore and archive lore and even lore from charms. For me it's Legion has I barely read lore now as I just can't make it through the entire lore now because it is extremely long. I would say Legion since even though theirs the whole multiverse my head will still spin trying to figure their lore out mainly with Susie has I'm super confused on is she super to be the stereotypical "Oh I don't know guys this seems kinda bad :( " or more "Yeah I'm fine with doing this kind of stuff"

    Nurse and Hag. Both got things reconned in their original lore by the tomes, which makes it confusing.

    Hag's for sure.

  • I haven't read every detail of the lore but isn't Dredge just an imaginary thing Otto created? And somehow the Entity manifested it into the Fog? Does the Entity even have control over the Dredge?

    Except Nurse wasn't retconned, nothing in her tome contradicts her original lore, it only expanded it.

    The whole ''mercy killing'' angle was nothing more than fan interpretation of an otherwise incredibly short and vague backstory that bhvr ended up taking in a different direction altogether.

    The Dredge was created by the dark thoughts of the Garden, it was not just in Otto's imagination.

    Something thats also implied is Otto knowing what The Doctor was up to before he was brought to the Entity's realm. The reason for this is because he was trying to get The Dredge to come back

    Now this is from my quick read from the tome stories, its not something I keep tabs on nearly as much as I used to nowadays.

    Ya know, considering Doctor's Otto & Dredge's Otto are two different versions of the same character, makes you wonder how many there are in the multiverse and just what kind of dark supernatural thing each of them are doing at their own terras.

    I’ve always thought Oni’s was pretty confusing.

    Personally, I loathe Skull Merchant's lore. She feels like short-sighted pandering rather than a real character. Not only does she have all the problems you mentioned it, the lore doesn't even detail what her father's manga was and why it inspired her so much, which is one of the most integral parts of her character.

    I can accept that she's just a ruthless psychopathic genius with an apex predator complex, fine. But how did she make so much money? Where did she get her technology from? What was her father's dark manga? There's too many unanswered questions. The lore theory I made up in my head after seeing her reveal trailer and perk descriptions was more coherent than what we got.
