The Kinderfanger Killer Concept

Chromeskull
Chromeskull Member Posts: 250

A killer from the vastly underrated Crypt TV shorts such as Sound of Death, and Piper's Song. In these shorts, the Kinderfanger uses its flute to take over a town of children and sic them on the adults. This is dbd concept on the Kinderfanger.

Base Stats

Movement Speed: 115%

Terror Radius: 32 meters

Height: Tall

"Following the Music leads to Death"

Ability: Song of Death

The Kinderfanger uses its flute to manipulate their souls. Playing the flute causes all survivors in his terror radius to suffer from the Hypnotised status effect, taking away charge from their tools and increasing the difficulty of skill checks. Survivors suffering from Hypnotised II will lose the ability to heal other survivors and wiggle while being picked up by the Kinderfanger. Survivors suffering from Hypnotised III will suffer from all the above and will slowly walk towards the Kinderfanger when in his terror radius and line of sight, however, his aura is revealed to the survivors suffering from Hypnotised III. All status effects end if the survivor is hit while suffering from Hypnotised III.

Secondary Ability: Pipers Demise

While using the Song of Death, holding the attack button causes the Kinderfanger to go into a Pig like lunge, however, all scratch marks vanish while it is being used. Hitting a survivor with this gives them the injured state and the status effect Oblivious.

Perks

Melody of Pain: Your sweet music leads them into a false sense of security. After every time a survivor is unhooked within your terror radius all other survivors have their aura revealed for 8/10/12 seconds, and the rescuer suffers from the Deep Wound and Exhausted status effects.

The Skeletal Pipe: You hunger for their souls, not their engineering skill. After a generator is completed within 30/40/50 meters of you, the next survivor hit instantly goes into the downed state.

Endless Devotion: You victims will worship you forever. You spawn with an obsession. When that obsession is unhooked, you gain an increase in blood points from that survivor by 15/20/30% and all survivors within 13/15/18 meters from your obsession have their auras revealed.

Song of Death Add-ons

Common

Blackened Pipe: Speeds up charge time of Piper's Demise. Increases BP gained from basic hits.

Tuft of Smog: Increases your terror radius while using Song of Death. Survivors go into Hypnotised II and III slightly faster.

Uncommon

Burnt Leaf: Survivors hit with Piper's Demise suffer from the Blind status effect.

Rare

Crushed Hearing Aid: When Song of Death is being used, your aura and the Auras of all survivors suffering from Hypnotised are revealed to each other.

Blazing Pipe: Injured survivors go into Hypnotised considerably faster when hearing Song of Death.

Very Rare

Bloody Wedding Ring: Song of Death recharges considerably faster, Piper's Demise Reveals the Aura of any unhooked survivor within 40 meters.

Boy Scout Badge: Piper's Demise has tremendously increased range and you gain the Undetectable status effect while Piper's Demise is Active or being charged.

Ultra Rare

Iridescent Flute: Piper's Demise instantly puts hit survivors into the dying state.

Bloodsoaked Teddy: Survivors suffering from Hypnotised I, II, and III suffer from the Exposed status effect, and Survivors going into Hypnotised III go into the injured state.

Memento Mori: The Kinderfanger plays a tune on its pipe, causing the survivor to stab themselves repeatedly with a shard of wood, before being covered and killed with a multicolored fire that flies from the end of his flute.
