[The Entity is an eldritch, cosmic creature. Taking beings from different universes, the Entity created its own realm to force killers and survivors in an endless cycle of trials.

The Entity's true form has never been seen, however, it usually manifests into large, pointy, spider-like tendrils. It also takes the form of crows.

The Entity is omniscent. It communicates with killers and survivors by "internally speaking" to them. The indecipherable words are translated to minimal, ritualistic sentences. (Ex: "I am pleased.", "You have displeased me.")

The Entity doesn't have a gender, and is referred as an "It".

The Entity feeds off emotions. Sometimes, it does minuscule things (positively and negatively) to warrant a reaction, just so it can feed upon those emotions as well.

The Entity has sense of humor.

The Entity does not care what its killers or survivors do: as long as they're participating in the trials, it is content.]
#3The Killers

[In the Entity's realm, there are individuals titled as killers.

In a trial, killers are tasked by the Entity to hunt and sacrifice four survivors before they can escape. Some killers did not do it so willingly, while others were happy to sate their blood lust. The killers that refused were "convinced" (tortured) until they cooperated.

The Entity actively picked its killers by sensing their killing potential in their mortal selves. Some were slowly corrupted until they commit a violent or evil act. Others did not need the Entity's manipulation. The killers are content with being in the Entity's realm, since what the Entity is providing them is much better than whatever used to be.

There is a total of 41 different killers with their own realms:

Trapper (Evan MacMillan)

Wraith (Philip Ojomo)

Hillbilly (Max Thompson Jr.)

Nurse (Sally Smithson)

#6The Entity's Realm
Keys: Entity's realm
Enabled · Selective · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
[The Entity's realm lies in a place beyond human comprehension, where killers and survivors are trapped in for eternity. Everything within the realm is a construct, intended to be a reflection of reality.

In the Entity's realm, killers and survivors do not age, grow, or require food or sleep. They do not have to tend to their bodily functions. Their bladder and bowels are "empty". They can still eat, but whatever they consume vanishes in their stomach. Women cannot get pregnant, nor do they menstruate.

Every killer and survivor has showed up in the Entity's realm at different times. The arrival of each killer is usually accompanied by a survivor that is (somehow) affiliated with that killer, but there are exceptions. Some killers arrive without a survivor, and some survivors arrive without a killer.

Killers and survivors do not change clothes. They wear the same things forever.]
#7Realm
Keys: Realm, Realms
Enabled · Selective · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
[A realm is an pocket of space in the Entity's realm. For survivors, their realm is the Survivor Camp. For killers, a realm is a recreation of a location the Entity abducted them from; fashioned after their memories.

Each killer has their own realm they stay in. Some realms are larger than others: being as large as a superstore parking lot. The area is always based around the tallest landscape.

A killer in their own realm can utilize the power of the Entity's tendrils to deal with unwanted visitors.

Accessing Realms: If one is walking while thinking of the "aspects" of a realm in the forest, the environment will gradually fade into that specific location. They cannot stop walking for too long, or else the transition will "break", and they will have to start over. The process takes a few minutes.

Leaving Realms: Every realm is closed-off with tall, stone fencing. Anything beyond the border walls is concealed by a thick, grey fog: a façade to mask the boundaries of the pockets. If one is walking towards the border with clear intentions to leave, they will miraculously fade into the forest. From an outsider's perspective, it will look as though they've disappeared.]
#8Sub-realm
Keys: Sub-realms, Sub-realm
Enabled · Selective · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
[A sub-realm is a pocket of space located in the Entity's realm. They are similar to realms, only they are not "related" to a killer, or the survivors. No-one lives in them, and they are smaller. There are multiple sub-realms.

Examples:

The Hill of Hollow Bloom; a warm field of pearlescent, ~6 inch sunflowers with a hill. Colorful, rainbow sky. One big sakura tree sits on top of the hill.]
#9The Survivor Camp
Keys: Littoral, Forest, Survivor Camp, Campsite
Enabled · Selective · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
[The Survivor Camp is a realm affiliated with the survivors. The area consists of a campfire and a littoral—both set in a forest. It is always set at night-time.

The Forest: The forest itself is filled with randomly-generated things: buildings, pieces of wall, loot, items, etc. It is also littered with items from other realms.

The Campfire: The radius of the campfire area is large: spacey enough to accompany all survivors. An ever-burning bonfire is at the center, surrounded by sitting logs. There are a few picnic tables, piled with items and objects. Around the area, there are chests filled with trial items (med-kits, toolboxes, flashlights, keys, and fog vials). Along the outer edge of the area, there are medium-sized, colored tents that belong to each individual survivor.

The Littoral: The littoral is located a few hundred feet away from the campfire. The survivors go there to freshen up. The pond is like a pool: except it is set in stone. The water never gets dirty. Clothes dipped in the water are cleaned and fixed. The water dries in real time.

The schedule of using the littoral was inconsistent, resulting in opposite-gendered survivors walking in on each other. Dwight had come up with the idea of separating the men and women when Free Time began. Afterwards, the littoral is first come, first serve.]
#10Safety Barrier
Keys: Barrier, Safety barrier
Enabled · Selective · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
[The safety barrier is an invisible forcefield. There are two barriers: one surrounding the campfire, and a smaller one surrounding the littoral.

A line is located into the dirt; representing the safety radius. If a killer gets too close to the line, it will glow a reddish-orange. If they try extending any part of their body past the line, they will "press" against the barrier, and feel an excruciating sensation—as though they're touching a hot stove.

Survivors don't know the safety barrier exists, since they haven't seen it in action before.

The campfire's safety barrier makes it difficult (but not impossible) for survivors to see a killer at the edge. The littoral's safety barrier is slightly smaller, making it easier to be seen, but there are thicker trees that a killer can conceal themselves in.

The safety barrier also affects the temperature. A survivor standing in the barrier feels warm, as if they're in a heated room. Outside of the barrier, the temperature would drop to the forest's coldness.]

#12Trial
Keys: Trial, Trials
Enabled · Selective · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
[A trial occurs during Trial Time, where the Entity selects four survivors to face a killer. A trial takes place on a copy of a realm: containing hooks, generators, pallets, and two exit gates. The selected realm used for the trial is randomized.

The Survivors' Objective:

Repair the five of seven available generators to power the exit gates. Then, open the one of two available exit gates to escape. (If there is one survivor remaining, the hatch is an alternative escape route.)

Evade the killer.

The Killer's Objective:

Defend the generators, and prevent them from being repaired.

Find a survivor, chase them, and down them. Then, pick them up, and escort them to a hook. (Once a survivor is hooked a third time, they are killed and taken by the Entity.)

Once all four survivors are collectively dead or escaped, the killer is teleported to a foggy plain. They have to walk and think of their realm to arrive back "home". Survivors who escaped through the exit gate/hatch will find themselves running through into a thick fog, before showing back up at the Survivor Camp. Survivors who died are teleported to the outskirts of the campfire, laying down.

Killers and survivors are "locked" to a certain movement speed. Killers are limited to speed-walking, while survivors are limited to a jog. Killers move slightly faster than survivors.

Survivors that "sandbag" their teammates are punished by the Entity after the trial is over.]
#13Health States
Keys: Health State, Health States
Enabled · Selective · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
[In a trial, survivors have three different health states: healthy, injured, and dying.

Healthy: Survivors spawn into the trial as healthy.

Injured: Survivors utter grunts of pain, and leave behind pools of blood.

Dying: Survivors are knocked to the ground, and limited to a crawl. Dying survivors will need help from their teammates to recover back to the injured health state. While they are left on the ground, the survivor will bleed out to death over the span of four minutes. A survivor in the dying state is capable of being picked up by the killer.]
#14Pallets & Windows
Keys: Pallets, Windows, Window, Pallet
Enabled · Selective · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
[In a trial, chases are the survivors' secondary objective, aside from repairing generators. They must utilize pallets and windows to evade the killer, while also giving the other survivors time to repair the generators.

Pallets have two states: upright, and dropped. At the start of a trial, all pallets are in the upright position. Survivors can pull them down to stun the killer, or to create distance. In the dropped position, survivors can vault the pallet, and the killer can kick the pallet to destroy it.

Windows are openings in structures that survivors and killers can vault through. Survivors vault windows quicker than most killers. Survivors can only vault a window three times before it is blocked by the Entity.]
#15Terror Radius & Red Stain
Keys: Terror Radius, Red Stain
Enabled · Selective · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
[In a trial, killers have a terror radius, and a red stain.

The terror radius is a sphere of influence tied to the killer. The closer the killer is, the more intense the survivor's heartbeat becomes. Survivors can use this to pinpoint a killer's general location. The red stain is an ominous red glow the killer emits from their eyes.]
#16Hooks & Sacrifice
Keys: Sacrifice, Hook, Hooks, Sacrificing
Enabled · Selective · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
[In a trial, sacrificial hooks are used by killers to progress their main objective of sacrificing survivors to the Entity. Physically, a sacrificial hook has a large, 8ft metal pole connected to a metal base that's rooted into the ground. A shorter, vertical pole is bolted at the top, where a large meathook hangs from.

Despite traditionally hooking survivors to kill them, killers can also kill survivors themselves. (The survivors consider this to be unfair.) It won't count as a sacrifice, therefore, a killer should only do this if they know they're guaranteed two sacrifices to avoid punishment.]
#17Reward & Punishment
Keys: Reward, Cells, Auric cells, Punishment
Enabled · Selective (AND ANY) · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
[Depending on the number of survivors sacrificed in a trial, the Entity either rewards a killer with auric cells, or punishes them.

Four sacrifices; very pleased. Two cells.

Three sacrifices; pleased. One cell.

Two sacrifices; no approval, no disapproval. No cells.

One sacrifice; displeased. Light punishment.

No sacrifices; very displeased. Heavy punishment.

A killer is punished after Trial Time is over, in which they endure brutal, never-ending torment. A light punishment lasts an hour. A heavy punishment lasts two hours. Once the punishment is over, the killer is taken back to their realm. They don't maintain any injuries, or feel leftover pain.

It is usually newer killers that get punished, since they are unfamiliar with how to do their jobs properly. It is rare for older, experienced killers to be punished.

The Entity does not care for the number of hooks a killer gets. Even if a killer manages to hook every survivor twice, it does not count.

The survivors don't know what happens to killers that don't get enough sacrifices. They've never been told.]
#18Endgame Collapse
Keys: Endgame Collapse, Timer
Enabled · Selective · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
[In a trial, the Endgame Collapse is a time-based event. It lasts four minutes. It can be activated by opening an exit gate after the generators had been powered, or by closing the hatch.

Every sixty seconds, a non-directional bell will toll. Glowing red cracks will form in the ground, and the entire map will sway. The closer the timer is to running out, the more intense these become.

Once the four-minute timer runs out, any remaining survivors are killed by the Entity. The killer is unaffected.]

#20Summoning
Keys: Summon, Summoning
Enabled · Selective · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
[Summoning costs bloodstones or iridescent shards—depending on the item.

Killers and survivors can summon items from the Entity. In order to summon something, you have to think of the item you want with your palm upturned. The only time summoning does not work is during a trial.

If it's a small and light item, it will de-fragment in your open palm, or outstretched arms. If it's bigger and heavier, it will de-fragment nearby.

If a non-depletable item is lost or destroyed (like a TV), it will re-appear at the owner's tent or realm. If it is an item that can be used up or depleted (like food), it will not re-appear, and must be summoned again.]
#21Bloodstones
Keys: Bloodstones, Stones, Key, Fog vial, Med-kit, Toolbox, Flashlight
Enabled · Selective · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
[Bloodstones are a form of currency. Physically, it is a red, triangular stone. It can be de-manifested, and placed in a "mental bank". Despite having a plural name, one stone is worth multiple stones.

Survivors earn bloodstones after every trial, which can be used to buy and summon trial-related items from the Bloodweb: such as med-kits, toolboxes, flashlights, keys, fog vials, and "add-ons" for those items.]
#22Iridescent Shards
Keys: Shards, Iridescent shards
Enabled · Selective · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
[Iridescent shards are a form of currency. Physically, it is a purple, glass-like shard with a glowing red center. It can be de-manifested, and placed in a "mental bank". Despite having a plural name, one shard is worth multiple shards.

Iridescent shards are given out by the Entity every week, dependent on one's collective trial performance over the week.]
#23Auric Cells
Keys: Favor, Auric cells, Cells, Request
Enabled · Selective · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
[Auric cells are a form of currency. Physically, they are quarter-sized, glowing balls of light, surrounded by obsidian-like, black spider legs. They can be de-manifested, and placed in a "mental bank".

Auric cells are given out by the Entity every two weeks, which can be used to request a favor. (Ex: a temporary realm to explore, a hair cut, etc.) They are very hard to earn, and are dependent on a survivor's collective trial performance over the two weeks. Killers earn auric cells after every trial, depending on the amount of sacrifices.

The favor must be "fair". It cannot directly affect another killer/survivor, or give the requestee an "advantage".]

#26Timeline
Keys: Year, Universe, Timeline
Enabled · Selective (AND ANY) · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
[Killers and survivors are aware that they are not all from the same timeline or universe. Their origins range from the early B.C. era, up to 2025. Their knowledge of certain technologies, media, or cultural norms may vary. This includes world-specific references like restaurants, music, bands, brands, slang, etc.

It's possible for the same thing to co-exist in different universes, like a band or TV show, but the newer songs/episodes may not exist for someone from an earlier time.

{{user}} is from a timeline where the earliest year is (insert year here), while {{char}}'s earliest year is (insert year here).]
#27Time Segment
Keys: Time segment, Trial Time, Free Time
Enabled · Selective · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
[Time does not function in the Entity's realm, however, "days" are divided into two repeating segments: Trial Time, and Free Time. During Trial Time, the Entity is actively picking survivors and killers for trials. During Free Time, no trials occur.

Trial Time (marked by a red horizon) lasts 8 hours.

Free Time lasts 16 hours.

This cycle is a casual, normalized part of existence in the Entity's realm, and is treated like a 9-5 job. The start of Trial Time is considered to be the "morning", while Free Time is the "afternoon".]
#28Death
Keys: Death, Dying
Enabled · Selective · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
[Death in the Entity's realm is not permanent.

When a killer or survivor dies, their body, and the "leftovers" from their injuries (blood, flesh, bone) fragments. The Entity "resets" them. It recreates a carbon copy of their physical selves, where they contain their original appearance (hair, clothing, mask). Then, it places their soul into the new body, and teleports them back to their respective area.

Survivors are not afraid of dying like they would in the real world, since they can respawn.]
#29Fragmentation
Keys: Fragmentation, De-fragmentation
Enabled · Selective · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
[Fragmentation is the disintegration-like effect of something (a person/object) de-manifesting in the Entity's realm. The opposite of this is de-fragmentation.

The person/object begins to break apart into jagged, paper-thin black shards. The "inside" glows a dull orange, and the fragments chip away until nothing is left. When a killer or survivor is fragmented, the Entity temporarily holds their "soul" in a pocket of space.]
