New Killer Idea - The Falconer
Benedict Lore | I'm going to bring it up in every one of my posts until this comes back. Give me my lore back!
"As I watch every corner and shadow in this waking nightmare, I must now also watch the skies. Something has changed in the crows that perch around the trials. Their talons have sharpened and their eyes are ever more piercing. Worse yet, a phantom armed with bow and arrow commands them to search from the air. I have luckily managed to avoid being caught, my time in this place has at least given me experience, but I have seen many poor souls spotted by the avian spies before brought down by a perfectly placed shot to the back. Stay beneath cover and pray they don't find you"
Movement Speed - 110% | 4.4 m/s
Terror Radius - 24 meters
Height - Short | Tall while bow is fully drawn
Description - A figure wearing a hooded cloak made from leaves, twigs, and moss. Their hands are partially covered in feathers from the wrist up, and have razor sharp, blackened finger nails. Their feet are bird talons, wrapped in darkened cloth from the ankle up. Their eye's have a reflective sheen, not unlike a cat's, and are the only part of their face that can be seen. They have a wooden longbow lined with moss , along with arrows made with raven feathers that they also use as a melee weapon. They stay crouched and very low to the ground until they start to draw their bow, at which point they start standing up, reaching their full height when the bow is fully drawn.
POWER - mARKED BY THE FLOCK
You can send out up to 2 crows by holding the Active Ability button. A crow sent out will fly around in a 32 meter area for 60 seconds before returning to you. If the crow goes within 5 meters of the survivor, and in line of sight, it will produce a noise notification and begin circling the survivor. A survivor being circled by a crow can perform a 10 second action to remove the crow, even while running, but cannot vault or drop pallets while removing the crow, and 3 seconds after cancelling the removal. The progress meter for removing a crow will rapidly deplete over time if canceled. After a crow is removed, it cannot be sent out again for 20 seconds.
SPECIAL ATTACK: Bow
Press the Power button to draw an arrow, considerably lowering your movement speed while the arrow is being drawn and held. You start the trial with 3 arrows. Reading an arrow takes 2 seconds. Readying an arrow cannot be canceled but holding an arrow can. Successfully hitting a survivor with an arrow while they are being circled by crows will instantly down them. Arrows can be retrieved either manually or by sending out a crow.
PERKS
Flank - After losing a chase with a survivor, gain a 10% Haste boost for 10 seconds.
Defend the Nest - Hitting a generator will start regressing it. If a survivor has repaired a generator for 30% or more, and is within 14 meters of that generator when it starts regressing, their aura is revealed for 4 seconds.
Caw the Murder - If an injured survivor startles a crow, the crow will remove any of their healing progress and then fly towards you, revealing the survivor's aura for 4 seconds.
