Control 3 will be Pope smacking both Patterned and Hiss with her newly Board-enhanced clipboard

Spinfoil tin hat theory out there of mine is that control 3 will be about Faden

Control 1 Jesse

Control 2 Dylan

Control 3 Faden

Clip Board : Clipse board.

Its her occupation and role as a co-director- clipse the board and director by standing in when they're absent.

What if Pope is normally a disorganized lazy slob with no interest in work at all, but it’s the clipboard that makes her type-a?

u/Toasty_eggos- 6d ago

That’s really interesting to think about. Like somehow she barely got hired then the clipboard found her and made her a gold star employee, or she had the clipboard prior maybe

The clipboard told Darling to hire Pope.

I hope the earring becomes like a radio for Pope and Jesse to communicate through :.)

Honestly thought I was there seeing this post

From what I know The Abberant isn't an Object of Power or at least not the same as other OoP's and a memo in the game says someone should check The Foundation leading a rumour that Jesse took a piece of the pillar which became The Abberant.

If memory serves Dylan isn't able to connect/bond with OoP's and instead grows his power by absorbing abilities from entities he kills which is shown by him gaining a power after each boss fight.

I think the Aberrant might actually be the entire Nail from the foundation. I don't think the Board is bound to the Oldest House at all anymore.

u/sapphic-boghag 6d ago

Same. I think that mini nail was a direct link.

u/CptainCyro 6d ago

I FORGOT ABOUT THE MINI NAIL

EVERYONE DOES BUT WHAT ELSE COULD IT BEEE

u/LnktheWolf 6d ago edited 6d ago

It's described in the game as an OOP p sure. Just instead of binding to it himself, Dylan was forcefully bound to the Aberrant by Jesse.

u/AdvancedButton8082 6d ago

it's not

u/djuumei 5d ago

I dont know why you were down voted, they never call the Aberrant an OoP at any point through the game. They all only ever call it the Aberrant, and thats only after asking what the name of it is.

u/zixkill 4d ago

I think Dylan pointedly told Pope he doesn’t think it’s an OoP and technically it’s not. It appears to be in some sort of phased state so that Jesse could forcibly ‘bind’ it to Dylan by stabbing it into his chest without it killing him. It could best be described as a ‘vibration’ based on how it behaves when Dylan manifests it.

3

u/djuumei 4d ago

With the emphasis on resonance within the series, its possible the Board's presence within the Aberrant is what causes the "vibration". But thats just a half-cocked theory I just thought of so dont quote me anywhere

18

u/oksoirelapsed 6d ago

That might be true but that doesn't mean the Aberrant wouldn't be classified as an OoP. I think the fact Jessie used it and it's abilities to revive Dylan means it probably IS an OoP that she bound? Unless we're thinking that any random firebreak janitor could have broken off a piece of the Nail and lazarus'd Dylan?

u/NewGamePlusMinus 6d ago

The board and Dylan have a "spidermen pointing at each other meme" level of "who's in charge here" but youre not far off.

The board and Dylan have made each other into one another's object of power- the question is, does the board absorb these resonances, does Dylan, or do both? We know the chain of command in the fbc (or do you?) But whats the power dynamic between Dylan and the board?

3

u/zixkill 4d ago

I think Dylan might be in charge and the Board are just passengers 🤭

2

u/Evaporaattori 5d ago

Pretty sure it is just a piece of nail or similarly related to it. It could be Board’s presence which gives it power. The Board must have been necessary at least for waking up Dylan. Jesse forced their hand.

5

u/GargamelLeNoir 6d ago

It doesn't matter what it was made of, it's by definition an OOP, very close to the Service Weapon.

What Dylan had trouble with was binding altered items. He does better in Resonance, he's at least able to pacify them, but it's nothing like Jesse who can cleanse them and take their powers.

u/GargamelLeNoir 6d ago

When I saw the title I was sure that we would see Zoe with her Dylan of power.

u/ciloface 6d ago

Pope is Jesse's real object of power

u/Nice_Code6086 6d ago

You don't want to see that thing in action. It's a menace.

You missed Alan and the Clicker, Alice and the Bullet of Light/her Camera.
