"I think it rips through your clothes when it takes you over... Windows found some shredded longjohns but the nametag was missing.. They could be anybody's.. Nobody trusts anybody now, and we're all very tired... there's nothing more I can do, just wait..."

Perfect Imitation:

The Thing enters the trial as a monstrous abomination, half survivor, half monster. When injuring a survivor with its claw or Blood Tendrils, the injured Survivor can no long use team speak.

The thing can press the power button to transform into a previously injured survivor. Whilst transformed into a survivor the Thing:

• Moves at 107.5 % movement speed.
• Has no terror radious
• Can crouch, gesture, walk, run like any survivor.
• Can heal & repair generators with no skill checks and no progression.
• Cannot pick up or use items or drop pallets.
• Can climb through windows and over pallets like a survivor.

Whilst working on a generator or healing another survivor, The Thing can activate the power button to transform back and attack, instantly downing any survivors helping repair gens or being healed.  

Players can restore their coms and heal 1 health state by using 1 of the 5 blood test kits found in the Trial Grounds. These blood test kits break upon use.

SPECIAL ABILITY: Blood Tendril

Press and hold the attack button to charge up a Blood tendril (monstrous Thing or Survivor Thing) to shoot a long range (10 metres) tendril out from its chests impaling and injuring a survivor. Doing so whilst a survivor thing transforms the thing back into a monstrous thing.

SPECIAL ABILITY: Assimilation

Press and hold the Power button on a downed survivor who has reached the struggle phase to assimilate them, instantly killing them and becoming a copy of thst survivor. Other survivors will see a downed survivor icon change to an injured survivor icon on the hood and not be alerted to the survivors death. Assimilation can be used on any survivor who has reached the struggle phase that a survivor thing is currently healing or working on a gen with.

PERSONAL PERKS.

Intense Focus

Whilst withing a range of 12 metres of a survivor and not in a chase for 18/14/10 seconds, become hasted by 5% for 20 seconds.

"it stalks us, studies us, kills us and becomes us"

Hex: Regeneration & Deception.

A Hex rooting its power in Deception. All Dull Totems on the map appear active to 2/3/4 survivors. When all dull totems are destroyed, All totems on the map are restored, including any other Hex totems previously destroyed, and their affects resume.

"And the cycle could only be broken with careful planning and renoucing our greed ."

Targeted Infection

You become obsessed with one Survivor

Whilst the obsession is injured they self heal at 33% normal speed and repair generators 13%/23%/33% slower.

However, any co-op action, healing or repairing is completed 15% faster.

Hooking or killing a survivor will cause a new survivor to become the obsession after 30 seconds.

You can only be obsessed with one Survivor at a time.

"It feels like it almost wants us to work together, why? ."
