Identity V | “Fool's Gold” Background Story

Dear Visitors,
Arising from his fragmented suffering, a determination to change takes root, leading to the moment.
Blasting from silence, awakening amidst the fiery ashes and ruins, Norton, our dear miner, is reborn.

I see that somehow the official Identity V channel has taken down Norton's pride (his Hunter-ego video trailer), so I am going to say the same thing. Nightmare: Running away from guilt. Smiley Face: Descending into ego. Evil Reptilian: Transforming into a monster. Journalist: Enlightening the past. Fool's Gold: Letting greed being consumed.

[@RiverStyxIDV]

Hermit: neglecting the other side of the story? Letting your creations take hold of you?

[@stevendao8303]

at least journalist learned how to face her past and bringing the truth to light, without turning into a hunter

[@CropCeruse]

@@RiverStyxIDV Yeah he is basically the evil counterpart of Prisoner

[@somesymbols371]

@@CropCeruseplease, don’t forget that Luca Balsa killed him… what happened is that Alva Lorenz stole(if I didn’t forget) Luca’s father project than Luca joined Alva in this project without knowing the truth and then Luca tried to stole Alva’s work. After he found the truth about it and gone into a rampage. Don’t trust everything I wrote here, I might mixing things.

OH MY GOD AIN'T NO WAY????? HE BECAME A HUNTER?? OMG THE PLOT THICKENS LIKE A GOOD SOUP 😭😭😭😭 I'm so happy that we finally have more info about him and about who he was, what he was like, his personality, his reasons.... BUT OMG HE BECAME A HUNTER??

[@stevendao8303]

well due to the drugs and Norton's motive when joining the manor game, it's already possible for him to become a hunter, especially when it was teased a year ago that both Norton and Melly had hunter forms

[@anet5636]

@@stevendao8303oh were can you find that btw ive never seen it before

[@laughingfussr]

I don’t know the gold miner was one of the secret hunters but I’m scared to even find out what happens with the enchantress and the priestess hidden forms are especially the Gardner

[@AngieBanani]

Who gets turned into hunters is based off lore. I doubt Enchantress or Priestess will get one, considering in their lore they are not seen as hunters by any of the survivors. However, Gardener is a special case. She actually comes out alive in her first game, but goes to participate in another game which could give her a hunter switch identity. I think a Gardener identity switch would be cool, she can match with Hell Ember!

[@noshinoy]

Okay... The comments only worship norton, but I will write what I understood from the video, since I didn't find clarification from other people. I'm writing through a translator, sorry. Norton grew up in extreme poverty. His father wanted the best for him, and Norton followed that mindset too, trying to work hard and do his best to avoid suffering. But the miners Norton worked with bullied and mocked him for wanting to do better for himself, and it seems they forced him to give up his treasure map, he circled the place where the treasure should be, but instead, there was explosives. Norton decided to blow up his tormentors in the mine and himself along with them. He killed them not only out of greed. But also because he hated them, and he just took the position I don't care more if I can't see the mines, you can't feel it either.
