Killer name: The Shadow

Look: The killer is a black shadowy figure consumed by smoke.

Abilities:

M2: Deceive

Description: Deceive temporarily disguises the Shadow as the target player in the trial. During this time, the shadow will "phase" in between his original form, and the survivors. The Shadow is able to give the appearance of repairing generators and breaking totems.

Space Bar: Mind Bend / Shadow Lock (2 different ideas)

Description of Mind Bend: When within range of a survivor, the Shadow can touch the survivor allowing the Shadow to take over the survivor's body. During this time, the survivor has to complete 2 skill checks to free their mind of the shadow. If a survivor successfully completes both skill checks, the Shadow is forced out of the survivor's mind and is stunned. If the survivor does not successfully complete both skill checks, the survivor is downed. If the survivor completes only one skill check, the survivor is injured one state. If a survivor is already injured, the survivor has to complete one skill check.

Description of Shadow Lock: The Shadow attaches a shadow leash to the survivor. During this time, the survivor has to complete 2 skill checks. If the survivor misses both skill checks, they are sent into the "dark realm" where everything is black except for the survivor's immediate surroundings. If the survivor completes 1 skill check, but misses 1, the survivors movement controls are reversed. If the survivor completes both skill checks, they are freed from the lock and the Shadow is stunned.


Tell me your thoughts :) Originally posted in general discussions but I think it's more fitting here.

    HexSlayer999 came up with a survivor to match my killer idea. See below:

    "I have an idea for a survivor to go with this killer.

    A witchy/pagan/esoteric character.

    Perks could be:

    Third eye: active ability. After cleansing a totem this ability becomes active. Once activated the survivor can clear their mind of shadow block/dr.s maddness status effect/plagues sickness/pyramids tormented status effect.

    Can only be activated after cleansing a totem.

    Stackable with inner strength (the balance is the more ppl that use it, perks that work with cleansing totems-the less totems there will be available.


    Reiki Master or (ahem) hex slayer:

    Basically slightly faster cleansing speed perk. Tier 1 is much slower then regular cleansing. Tier 2 is maybe like 1/2 a second faster then normal cleansing. Tier 3 is like 1 second faster


    Healing aura: healing action button. Becomes active when a survivor is injured or in dying state. Survivor heals injured survivor at whatever distance (but at a much slower rate then regular healing; Just like when healing/selfcare survivor cannot move while healing from distances (cool fingers on temple animation when perk is in use). While the perk is in use the survivor healing's aura is revealed to the killer.

    This ability is cool because if an injured survivor is being chased/or in dying state they can get some progress on being healed; this also gives the killer the option to stop chasingi njured/searching for downed survivor and to go after healing survivor."
