In the 2500s, a megacorporation called the CEC was mining across space and found one of the Red Markers on the world of Aegis VII - and that's where the plot of Dead Space 1 kicks in! Having uncovered the Red Marker, the CEC mining ship known as the USG Ishimura is hit by a Necromorph outbreak as explained above.'The Blacklist' To End With Upcoming Season 10 On NBC
The whole affair was declared a massive failure and swept under the rug by the World Government, before the Red Markers were left abandoned on distant planets. A scientist named Altman recognized the danger and sank the Black Marker into the sea, but based on his data three Red Markers were constructed anyway, and all of them caused outbreaks because… of course they did. Red Markers, as we mentioned, were made by human beings, specifically by government researchers who found a Black Marker in the 2200s (about 300 years before Dead Space is set), and tried to recreate them, as they produced huge amounts of energy that they hoped could be harnessed. In fact, in Dead Space lore, a Black Marker in an asteroid is what supposedly wiped out the dinosaurs. The Black Markers' origins are unknown - nobody knows where they came from, but they seem pretty alien and have appeared on different worlds either in falling asteroids or buried underground.

The colour difference is thought to be from differences in composition, as Black Markers features several unknown elements.Įither type of Marker largely does the same thing: generates a signal that has two effects: firstly, it affects the minds of human beings nearby, starting with insomnia and depression, and escalating over time to full-on homicidal or suicidal behaviour, usually driven by hallucinations that make this behaviour seem rational to those affected. Part of the function of a Black Marker is to inspire an urge to recreate it in any intelligent species that discovers one. These obelisks are big alien statues of mysterious origin that, in the original games' lore, are eventually discovered to be scattered around the galaxy. The Red Marker in Dead Space that Isaac Clarke encounters on the USG Ishimura is one of many Markers, though this one is actually an artificial recreation of a "Black Marker" found on Earth.
