Booker invents an entirely different story within his mind in which he is tasked to retrieve a girl in order to pay off his debt to a man in New York. Booker is eventually pulled over into Comstock's world by Robert and Rosalind Lutece. At some point during this time, he brands "AD" on his hand, standing for Anna DeWitt. The Booker in this universe lives in regret and depression for about 20 years. He changes his mind at the last second, and while trying to pull Anna away from Comstock, who is escaping through a tear created by Rosalind Lutece's machine, her pinky finger is cut off as the tear between their universes closes. In the first universe, Booker declines the baptism and remains himself, has a daughter named Anna, owes a great debt through his gambling addiction, and gives up Anna to Robert Lutece, who is working for Comstock, in order to pay the debt.
Booker either accepts or denies the baptism. Because of this decision at the baptism, there are two main universes which exist in BioShock Infinite. The crucial point in Booker DeWitt's existence is that of the baptism which occurs after the battle of Wounded Knee. The second is where DeWitt refuses the baptism, thus creating the man you play as throughout the game. One in which DeWitt accepts his baptism and eventually becomes Comstock, thus leading to the creation of Columbia. In BioShock Infinite, we're given two main universes. When Elizabeth asks Booker if he fears God, it is a hint that she is a moral person and may feel obligated to do the right thing. Players of the original BioShock will recognize one of many alternate cities as Rapture.Īs Elizabeth puts it: "There's always a man, always a lighthouse, always a city."Īt the end of the game, Elizabeth takes Booker to the lighthouses so he can comprehend things and show him what needs to be done for the greater good. She sees that the universes in which the "Booker" character lives lead to the inevitable: a man builds a city, attempts to leave society behind and create a utopia, which ultimately leads to corruption, downfall and destruction - sometimes the destruction of Columbia, sometimes the destruction of civilization by Columbia. When Elizabeth becomes omniscient, the knowledge of every universe is common to her and she realizes the implications are much bigger than Comstock and Columbia. Therefore the only way to prevent the creation of Columbia is to kill Booker during his transformation into Comstock.
