TUA Season 1 you'll always be famous. You came, served cunt, trauma and siblinghood and ended with a cliffhanger that spawned great fanfics but that in canon led nowhere. Still thinking about that time when many of us thought they all came back to their kid bodies in the past. What a time

JUST MY THEORY: probably not a good one, but I would like to see your thoughts on it :)

Do you think that the needles guy could be another new entity? If I remember correctly, the entities were created by having enough living things afraid of them.

Is possible that in this universe, more people are afraid of being pierced? Like fears of being stabbed or poked with things such as needles or knives, yet not necessarily being killed by them(if that makes any sense)?

I would love to hear your thoughts and opinions on it. Keep up the good work on the theory board :)

I really like this theory and we have seen it happen before with the extinction so its not completely out of the realm of possibility!

My roommate and I have been thinking a lot about the role the fears/ entities will play in the Protocol story and mostly about what may have happened to them post MAG 200. Our ongoing theory is that the fears may have gotten scrambled or messed up when they were ripped from their universe to this one (if protocols universe is somewhere else.) we are basing this off of the fact that almost every incident so far in Protocol doesn't fit cleanly into any one fear. we're thinking the fears have maybe mixed themselves together and this could result in Avatars and entities that are branched off of multiple powers. with Needles we have been theorizing they're a mix of the slaughter and the spiral the way Needles toys with their victims is very similar to how the Spiral would act but the needles piercing into the body falls pretty solidly into the Slaughter (maybe a little dash of the Flesh) . Another example that we found of these hybrid avatars/ entities is Samuel Webber from Episode 3 (tree guy) his situation falls pretty cleanly into Corruption with the whole rotting flesh and toxic relationships thing. but he also makes a strong case for the flesh being involved how his body is mutilated and destroyed slowly by the transforming process.

I do think that needles is a avatar rather than an entity just because from what we know about the entities, they aren't able to physically manifest in the world the only way they can enact their way is through avatars so i think needle fits pretty cleanly in that role.

thank you so much for sharing your theories I absolutely love discussing this podcast and love hearing everyones theories on whats going on in the tmagp lore.

Signs of the Apocalypse

As it pertains to The Magnus Archives

- The Lonely: the eradication of third places, the rising costs of nonessential services and recreational activities, the stagnant wages and rampant poverty forcing people to work and stay home, the way every piece of news about the suffering of our fellow man is too overwhelming and we shut down, shutting out the suffering and the people with it

- The Spiral: the rise of AI generated content mimicking human creations and human faces, the companies overwhelmingly turning to AI so they don’t have to pay real people for real work, the spread of misinformation and disinformation at rapid pace across the internet

- The Slaughter: the increasingly extremist right wing policies taking over governments across the world, violently suppressing any differences or dissent, inspiring acts of violence against the oppressed

- The Eye: increased prevalence of data collection and AI surveillance, government surveillance, targeted advertising, increasing amount of social media posts documenting the private lives of strangers and the lack of social awareness for what’s right and wrong

- The Buried: the widening wealth inequality gap, the unrelenting pressure on employees to perform when understaffed and underpayed, the humanitarian disasters that arise from global warming leaving people trapped in rubble, drowned, the mass graves

- The Corruption: the lingering effects of the Coronavirus pandemic, the Antivax movement, the resurgence of diseases, the price gouging of life saving medicine, we still haven’t cured cancer

- The Desolation: the bombings in Palestine, the destruction of Ukrainian civilian areas by Russian forces, the rampant forest fires and brush fires

- The Vast: the increasingly worrying trend of billionaires focusing on space travel while everyone else knows they’ll be left behind if they can’t afford the ticket, the fear of what may be lurking out there, the fear of everything that could go wrong, malfunction, fall apart like a Boeing plane

- The Web: the overexposure of advertising, the worry that your life is no longer your own as you live only to work, make money, buy products to get by, then work some more

- The Extinction: the way companies and governments willfully ignore global warming, the way they let catastrophic wars continue, and they let the people suffer from it

- The Stranger: AI tools taking real peoples faces, voices, and creations, only to repurpose them into mashed up semblances of whatever a user indicates they want to see

- Currently can’t find much evidence of The Dark, The Hunt, or The Flesh in our modern world but having so many of the entities at play at once is still concerning.
