The Gremlins Chapter idea

So since the next chapter is technically coming out on christmas then why not a horror/comedy movie chapter based on it?

The killer would be Stripes, the main evil gremlin with a mohawk from the first movie (the one from the 2nd movie could be a skin)

but then comes the question "how will he even work? he's too small lol" okay so u know how killers have their character info on F1 right? there's TALL and AVERAGE but NO SHORT so making a new rig for a small killer starting with gremlins might lead to chucky in the future huh? ;) or they can do some shenanigans and just say that entity made Stripes bigger etc.


Okay so the ability "3 rules", when playing as "The Gremlin" fountains or other water sources spawn on the map, Stripes can jump into the fountain (or do smthn diff depending on what water source would actually take the function of this mechanic) to create max 6 stacks of his power, his stacks are gremlins that will follow him.

Here comes the kicker when surrounded with gremlins Stripes's lunge has a longer range and he moves faster, jumps through windows faster, breaks gens faster etc.


As his secondary ability he can lose a stack of his power by placing one of the gremlins on a generator/window/vault or a pallet that hasnt been thrown down yet.


When a gremlin is placed on a generator it's going to start breaking it making it regress faster than a gen normally does after a kick and if a survivor touches a gen with a gremlin on it the gremlin will start laughing and the killer will gain a notification on the gen while the gremlin will jump on the survivor keeping him in place until he struggles it off him by holding M1 (similar to Trapper's bear trap struggle bar) it's not RNG tho and it's a normal bar u have to hold M1 for until it's full.


If a gremlin is placed on a window he hides under it waiting for a survivor to vault through if a survivor does so the gremlin will start laughing and grab him by the leg where the survivor has to hold M1 (similar to struggling out of a bear trap) and also give a notification to the killer


If a gremlin is placed on a pallet that hasn't been dropped yet it will wait for a survivor to try dropping it and if a survivor does try to do that the gremlin will grab a hold off the pallet and the survivor will have to struggle with it over the pallet (this action can be canceled by the survivor or do the same M1 holding bar after which the survivor throws the pallet down)


Finally here's the counter to all of these gremlin placements, just like in the movie the gremlins will be sensitive to light so if a survivor flashes a gremlin that's on a generator/under a window or on a pallet it will run off back to Stripes, if a survivor is flashing the gremlin long enough while it's coming back to the killer it will turn to stone and Stripes loses a stack and has to make a new gremlin from the fountain (or another water source as I've said before)


His perks would be:


"Fun but in no sense civilized": The killer doesn't lose his bloodlust stack after breaking a pallet or hitting a survivor, has a cooldown of 100/80/60 seconds.


"Don't feed after midnight": Whenever a survivor is hooked "Don't feed after midnight" gains one token, up to 4/8/12 tokens can be obtained, Each token grants a 1%/1.5%/2% buff to missed attack recovery speed, vaulting speed, pallet breaking, and blindness resistance.


"Call the repairmen": After breaking a generator the entity blocks it for 5/10/15 seconds, has a cooldown of 90/70/60 seconds.


The new map could either be the TV tower from the 2nd movie with various TV show sets, Kingston Falls with the neighbourhood similar to Haddonfield or the cinema as a whole map.


Not sure for the survivor so im just gonna leave it at here, hope my idea doesn't get trashed out with some nasty comments :P, hope you enjoyed reading my idea!

    Sigh, another killer countered by flashlights.

    Firstly, this killer idea sounds rather OP and would need majorly tweaking.

    Secondly, it would be insanely difficult for them to complete the whole process for creating a new killer, modelling it, animating it and creating the perks. Let alone just getting the license for the killer!

    I like the idea though, it sounds like a really interesting idea! I just think it would be very difficult for the developers to create such a killer. Maybe if it had a different kind of power, it would be more likely that Behaviour would introduce this into the game.

    I would like to see Billy as a Survivor...maybe have him wear a backpack with Gizmo sticking out of it.
