Killer Suggestion: The Tyrant (corrupted Dwight)

Concept:

It's been suggested (although un-confirmed) that IF a survivor loses all hope they may become one of The Entity's servants. So what if Mr. Fairfield succumbed to such a fate... Would "a leader" become "a tyrant?

Appearance:

The Tyrant would look like a buffed-up Dwight in regal looking attire. Robes, jewelry, etc.

Weapon:

Royal scepter or staff

Power: Domain

  • The Tyrant can claim an area as their own. This area is invisible to survivors, but The Tyrant can see a shimmering dome of energy once placed.
  • The auras of all survivors within a Domain are revealed to The Tyrant as long as they are within it's range. While survivors are inside of a Domain (without The Tyrant) the domain slowly shrinks in size until it vanishes completely.
  • The size of Domains are affected by add-ons.
  • The Tyrant can claim multiple Domains, up to a certain limit (adjusted by add-ons). When The Tyrant tries to place another past this limit, the oldest domain vanishes (similar to Hag traps).
  • Add-ons can add other effects to Domains as well.

Perks:

My Word is Law - Applies "Law" to a survivor when they are hit by the killers primary weapon, lasts for 10/ 20/ 30 seconds. Activated/ triggered perks do not work while "Law" is active and perk cooldowns do not progress.

Higher Standing - After standing still for 3 seconds, auras of survivors who are below your current elevation are revealed for 2/ 4 /6 seconds. This perk has a 30 second cooldown.

Taxation - While a survivor is inside of the killers terror radius, the killer gains 25%/ 50%/ 75% of any movement or action speed bonuses that survivor has. Stacks with multiple survivors in terror radius.
