Alters Backstory in Apex Legends Lore

[@astroknight6488]

Hear me out...Alter is an alternate version of Horizion

[@thethak]

yeah, lots of fun theories about that. Could definitely be true. Like an alternate dimension version of Horizon.

[@damiangarcia8096]

Yes

[@Bulby3sand7s]

Then why’s alter Chinese 😭

[@thethak]

@@Bulby3sand7s lol alternate dimensions can be different race and gender. I mean look at sipder man, there are male and female spider people. There's a female loki and even a crocodile loki. so you know, anything is possible in the multiverse 😂😂

[@Bulby3sand7s]

@@thethak ok fair enough. It feels different with the Loki and Spider-Man things tho considering they’re sometimes different people altogether which I guess you could say that’s what’s happening with alter but then it’s like how is she horizon at all then? Multiverse shit’s complicated 😭

[@JB2FROSTY]

I think the fact that the video was called Based on a true story and had her literally being bloodhound, a champion in 2 different games, and a leader of 3 sea serpents made it kind of obvious that she made all that stuff up bro.

[@thethak]

Yeah it's interesting because the lead writer said that there's a bit of truth in everything Alter says. Just a case of working out which parts are real and which are made up, haha.

[@blturn]

Don’t forget half-truths are a thing.

[@ejoel92XD]

I don’t think she made it up. I think she altered “realties” to become the new Bloodhound in that world, new Majong Champ instead of a Valk, Soccer player instead of daredevil, where octane can use his legs, so I think she simply just alters the realities of that persons purpose. Kinda stripping them from it. Good or Bad. She does the opposite. Like horizon instead of traveling to the future and finding Newt, she will try to stop her and make it difficult. Idk something like that.

[@Ja-lI]

And then your me who thought Alter was the son of Horizon …

[@thethak]

lol, A fair few have that theory to be honest. It could happen. Her being an alternate version of Horizon seems to be the favourite theory at the moment though.

[@Ja-lI]

@@thethak me too

[@MichaelSaint-uz1cb]

Figured it out Alter is horizon child - different dimension different gender - she knows everything about horizon

[@rollsthe1707]

That’s what I’m saying! People think it’s horizon herself but I don’t think so. Alter says “newt needs you” not because she knows the loss of a child, but what it’s like to be Newton growing up thinking his mother died

[@thethak]

Yeah that's definitely a popular fan theory. For sure Alter is really invested in Horizon making it back to Newton so there's something there for sure.

[@skar516]

I think she’s a mix of horizon, wraith, rampart and conduit

[@sethsteuer6926]

I think she's catalyst friend from her intro and when she got exploded she became a split personality

[@thethak]

Good guess, could be. Margot is who you're thinking of, She wasn't Asian though so not sure if that would be a factor.

[@sethsteuer6926]

@thethak that's true I did a side by side and they looked shockingly simular but hey that's just a a fan theory 😉

[@thethak]

@@sethsteuer6926 haha yeah it's a good theory. Look forward to seeing how it turns out.

[@sethsteuer6926]

@@thethak u to man Imma come back to the post when the answer is revealed lol

[@DogLover-jx2ip]

Wait, horizon went back in time to see Newton? Someone mind filling me in?

[@thethak]

Yes, there was an in game teaser back in season 7 where you could go into the phase runner after activating the easter egg and it would take you back to Horizons old apartment on Olympus with a recording confirming she finds a way to make it back to Newton. Even has Newtons voice on the audio recording. Season 20 then had the comic episodes that showed horizon getting some technology that could help her do it.

[@izukumidoriya-qg8lu]

How do her and wraith have the same ability

[@thethak]

The Apex Creative team said it's different technology but connecting to the same thing, i.e. opening dimensional portals.

[@JB2FROSTY]

Lily? Isn't that gonna be hard for her to say?

[@thethak]

lily?

[@beewayne5852]

Said a whole lot of nothing

[@thethak]

what do you mean? The discombobulation of her story is the very point. Learn the secrets hidden in her stories

[@FirionLionheart]

There is a banner frame where Horizon's portrait changes to Alter's with word "Corrupted" written on it. Coincidence?I think not. Also we are talking about multiverse. So the grand reveal will be that either it's Horizon's alternate version or Alter is Horizon's son from a diffirent dimension. Newton became trans or whatever thing they forgot to add in the game from lgbtqlgtv++ spectrum (Ea and respawn likes their inclusivity too much).

[@thethak]

Yeah I think either alternate Horizon or Newton are the favourites at the moment. Horizons evil twin is an outside of the box theory as well, lol

God I hate edgy edgelord characters
