While most Twisted possess strong defense, they have weaknesses Aya can exploit which enables her to Overdive Kill them. They have the ability to teleport and can telepathically burst a human into gore. When spawned, they travel through space-time distortions that appear whenever Aya tries to Overdive into the past. The Twisted come in variety of shapes and sizes. She mentions she has a feeling that wretched times will revisit one day. In the ending, Eve mentions in the mailnotes that despite living in a world where there are no Twisted, she can still feel them sometimes.

When asked 'What made it possible for the Twisted to originate?', the reply was 'fragments from Aya's mind scatter in the future and use the people of that time as a medium to be born.' Since they originate from Aya, they must be some sort of advanced neo-mitochondrial beings, similar to the NMCs. The Twisted can be interpreted as an unstable yet 'evil' incarnations of Aya's lost consciousness in time space. Afterwards, the Twisted appeared worldwide in many countries (193 countries in one timeline), and there are millions of them.Įnd game, Hyde reveals to Eve (who was in Aya's body) that the Twisted were born from the shattered fragments of the real Aya Brea's consciousness, which was destroyed during 'Time Zero'. In 2012, the first Babel appeared in New York City, spawning the Twisted with it. Hyde Bohr was selected as its chief researcher. Believing them to be part of a terrorist act perpetrated by enemies at home or abroad, the government established a Counter Terrorism Unit (the precursor to the Counter Twisted Investigation) under the FBI's direct control.

In the winter of 2010, unknown life forms began attacking and abducting innocent civilians. The flurry of reported Twisted sightings died down before long, but only because the strange organisms were deep underground, preparing for the birth of the Babel. At first, the US government treated these alarming events as acts of terror involving some kind of biological or chemical weapon. During ' Time Zero', around the time Aya Brea was discovered outside Saint Thomas Church, sightings of unknown organisms were coming in from all over New York State.
