Which killer idea sounds the coolest?
I'm always literally obsessed with thinking about what the next killer could be and brainstorming ideas since survivors are just skins and everything else is boring, so yeah answer this poll
most of these options would be too difficult to make, too strong, and/or have integral flaws but we can dream
Edit: just to be clear I know some people have mentioned some of these ideas before, I'm not claiming them to be mine just seeing what people's opinions are on them

Some other crazy shiz (comment it below)
The Tank from L4D or a tank-type of character.
A lot slower than regular Killers (still faster than Survivors), but way stronger: Damaging Generators sets them back by ~5%, Pallets can be destroyed with M1s, stuns are less effective (don't know a good % for that though), etc. etc.
Probably a giant standard Terror Radius too, maybe it can't gain Undetectable.
Idk, just thinking of a devastating & obvious Killer.

Summon minions to carry out your bidding
I voted for Minions but we seriously need more votes on turning into a Survivor to trick them. I would have chosen that but I am a necromancer through and through and I need my undead minions to rid the world of the living and, their pain sustains me and my dominance is pure.

Accumulate rage to use for powerful magical attacks/boosts
According to Wizard101, you’re a Myth Wizard. :P

Use fire to burn survivors and other objects
Just want to say that turning into a Survivor will not work, as that will be so easily countered by SWF that it wouldn't even be funny.

Spread evil dark fog which the survivors must use light sources to dissipate
The teleporting survivors idea sounds super nice too though, wish you could choose multiple options. The turns into a survivor to trick them one sounds dope too.

Crawl up the wall/ceiling and drop down on people
I want Alien!
Spread dark fog and rage for powerful attacks sound great too.

Some other crazy shiz (comment it below)
I've got a few...
A knight (A hulking killer who doesn't easily take a beating and is a seasoned warrior.):
Slender (A teleporting and trapmaking killer, but way different to freddy. Also made before Freddy's Rework.):
(I'll make a part two in the next comment)

Part 2 to my killers:
A Pirate (A killer who can harpoon survivors and drag them to them, however it's very situational):
A Mechanical Angel (A flying killer that can ambush survivors from the air:
And a Renovator (A strategic killer that can trap windows and pallets):
If any are good/need tweaks, let me know!

I also like an idea of a shadow killer of a sorts.

I just looked that up and that seems accurate yes :)

"Turn into a survivor and trick people" -Dead in the water because of SWF. Even against non-SWF groups this still isnt a very effective power/ Please god stop suggesting this power idea. It was a bad idea when people suggested it back when the game was first starting out, and its still a bad idea now.
"Use fire to burn survivors and other objects" - I think one of the devs or mods said they wanted something like this, didnt they? Might be cool if handled well.
"Summon minions to carry out your bidding" - I dont trust BHVR to make fuctioning AI minions.
"Crawl up the wall/ceiling and drop down on people" - Heavily map-reliant power. Unless they give Killers the ability to choose the map (without offerings), this power is dead in the water.
"Spread evil dark fog which the survivors must use light sources to dissipate" -I had a similar idea to this, could be cool.
"Accumulate rage to use for powerful magical attacks/boosts" - I also had a similar idea to this, can also be cool.
"Cause survivors to be moved/teleported to a different location against their will" - Cool idea, but would probably be a balancing nightmare.

Use fire to burn survivors and other objects
I would think a fire killer would more fun for the killer and annoying for survivors not lethal just annoying

Yep. We need The Thing chapter.

Turn into a survivor and trick people
John Carpenter's The Thing Chapter, IT Chapter, Legion Rework, or Clayface from DC.

Turn into a survivor and trick people
I was thinking more along the lines of the Spitter from L4D2 but Tank would be cool.

This may help killers who are having a tough time with swf...it could work.

The dark fog idea sounds pretty interesting to me. I think it would add some much needed atmosphere to the game as well.
