DBH lore rambles #1
On Markus & Connor's activation.
A/N: Omg I missed posting on here <3 How is everyone doing? I hope well. I've been writing a ton these past few months... low-key theorizing about some aspects of the game that were left criminally unexplored (I desperately wish we got DBH 2, but I digress).
Anyway, here's my two cents about Markus' and Connor's role in the revolution specifically (I don't believe the demonstration ending is realistic enough so I won't mention it here). Ofc take everything with a grain of salt and feel free to give your thoughts on this (I might be missing something):
I was re-watching this scene and realized this is the only instance an exact address is given (As far as I am aware). Carl Manfred resides at 8941 Lafayette Avenue, Detroit
It's not a real address (In Detroit) - YET (It's 2038 so anything could happen) , but assuming is close to Lafayette Street, it would be roughly a 25 minute drive from Carl's house to Belle Isle
Elijah Kamski's house is in Detroit River, which is Close to Belle Isle
CyberLife tower is in Belle Isle
Elijah Kamski gifted Markus to Carl Manfred, so there's definitely some kind of history there. They became friends and built a relationship somehow.
I plan on writing a fic at some point where they interact so this post is mainly me taking notes for myself.
Do you have any theories/ headcannon about how the androids recharge?
The Android parking space thing thing might also double as a charger, but since there are androids who manage to pretend they’re humans for a long amount of time (pigeon android) there has to be another way for them to recharge.
We know that canonically they have 7 days batteries so there needs to be something that’s not very attention grabbing, and can be done often.
Maybe there’s just straight up a charging plug for them. Or maybe they’re like like phones where they can connect to laptops and computers and charge from them.
I read somewhere that they had some kind of cable port at the back of their neck but I can’t find it anymore, and I’m not sure if it’s cannon.
And how do the androids in Jericho get batteries? Cause I don’t think Jericho has access to electricity so they’d need to go get it.
My working theory is that there’s a couple of androids who still look like normal androids who’d go out and re-charge their batteries and then go back and transfer their batteries to the androids who can’t go out.
The lore in DBH is all over the place tbh and finding one consistent theory would be difficult. I'm also not the tech guy here, that's @marcusrobertobaq but I've got a few theories.
the thirium pump regulator acts as a battery and it can be recharged or replaced. Maybe there's a port that can be connected to the pump? Or it can be removed (the problem with this one is that removing the pump means they would need an extra pump on hand since it can't be gone for too long)
And I was also thinking about the parking space thing but like you said, some androids go long without going to the parking space. But there could be portable versions of it the android can carry around.
This one is a crack theory but I thought solar powered androids would be funny. But that wouldn't work since the androids at Jericho don't go out under the sun a lot.
Thirium could also double as a recharge for whatever battery they're using. This is honestly the easiest theory because it could work. Thirium transfers "energy and electrical information" through the android; we don't know exactly what that means but what if it can transfer electricity to the androids' battery. It would also be portable enough that the android can recharge without being too obvious. Since the battery lasts seven days without recharge, it also makes sense that the only of the main trio we see taking thirium is Markus; Connor could easily be recharged at the DPD and Kara could have been recharged at the Cyberlife store from the beginning of the game.
Androids going out, recharging and returning to give the battery to another android could also work but we know biocomponents need to be compatible first. And a battery is technically a biocomponent. The ones without compatibility would have to stay without recharge.
A Thought on Overwatch/Detroit: Become Human
This has been rattling around in my brain for some time now:
Because the aims of Ramattra and DBH’s Android revolution are so similar, I’ve wondered how they would react to each other.
(This is kind of a long post so I’m putting a break here in case you would like to scroll past lol)
Ask box is open!
I totally forgot to open up asks when I made this account. It’s wide open now though, so please feel free to message me with any kind of D:BH lore questions or concept art requests and I’ll try to deliver to my best abilities!
I also make video edits sometimes. ;)
…PEDRO?!?!?!?!
I swear, Connor and Markus somehow manage to encounter so many of the same characters!
These dudes appear to be roughly the same size… think about that!
