Original Image by " Aya-Lunar " on Deviant Art
Chapter Title: " The Demon Within "
Introducing: " The Crooked Man "
Real Name: " Duke MacGahan "
Backstory: " [W.I.P.] "
Map: " [W.I.P.] "
Outfit:
Head: " Crooked Smile " - There's only so much one man can endure before he says "enough is enough", many can over come their problems or succumb to their doom. MacGahan now hangs his head with a little crooked smile.
Torso: " The Monster in a Man " - Stained from blood, bleeding from his crooked smile, the crooked man's attire had suited his crooked style.
Weapon: " Demon's Touch " - "Do it." they say in your head, "End it, and it'll end too" but they're lying to you.
Power: Fiendish of Influence
Passive Power: [W.I.P.]
Survivors hear The Crooked Man's Terror Radius and see him within a range of 16 meters , intermittently within a range of 32 meters, and not at all if further away. (Has a similar power/system to Freddy's "Dream Demon" power.)
New De-Buff Effect: "Anguish" - Survivors who are hooked for the first time will have this de-buff active until the totem is broken or (based on possible future addons) until they're freed from their second stage on a hook. Survivors actions and progression will be more unforgiving if a survivor suffering anguish is doing an action alone, regression will be increased and progression will be decreased. The skillchecks that will increase your regression will have a similar look to old ruin's red veined skillchecks. Survivors will have less punishing skillchecks, progress and regression if they work with one other survivor while suffering Anguish.
"There's always a helping hand out there, you're putting too much pressure on yourself."

Perks:
Perk #1: "" -
"Our Special Place." - Duke MacGahan
Perk #2: "Obsession: Mental Curse" - If you're the obsession, you're granted a 3% increase to repair and healing when working alone, however you will be unable to complete any action fully (minus cleansing totems), leaving only 2%/8%/14% of the action incomplete. Other survivors will be able to complete the actions you were unable to complete, if another survivor completes an action you didn't complete your aura will appear for 4 seconds for each action you did not complete. If you cooperate with someone else, " moderately / considerably / tremendously " difficult skillchecks will begin to appear and failing any of them skillchecks will regress progress by 6% each time.
"I'm waiting for you" - Duke MacGahan
Perk #3: "Hex: Falling Faithless" - Survivors who get hooked will be granted a new de-buff called "Anguish" that this hex enforces onto survivors. Survivor's skillchecks become harder and unforgiving on both repairing and healing. Repair and Healing speed is decreased by 5%/7%/9% on all actions, and failed skillchecks will regress that action by 6%. Survivors that heal other survivors or even themselves, if they fail a certain number of skillchecks, the survivor that's being healed will be put into the dying state if the progression bar hits 0% again after progression has been made. This effect will increase the chances of happening to survivors who heal themselves. If a survivor who works on a generator alone fails a certain number of skillchecks then the regression to that generator will increase by 2% up to a max of 10% whenever failing a skillcheck. If survivors work together on a generator, the generator regression due to failed skillchecks increase to 1% up to a max of 5%. Survivors who are put into the dying state will bleed out 3% faster than normal.
"It wasn't me, it was you." - The Crooked Man
Mori: The Crooked Man will pick the survivor up by their arms and force the survivor to strangle themselves while facing the player's screen, the survivor will have a look of desperation and fear on their face having a sense of breaking the 4th wall asking the player for help from the look alone. The Crooked Man will have let go of the survivors arms letting the survivor choke themselves till their neck breaks, he will be looming over from the side having his horrific crooked smile and face peering from the edge of the survivor. As the survivor falls to the ground, the camera shows the Crooked Man staring directly at the player with his smile still wide and crooked, as he gives off a slight chuckle before ending the animated death completely.
Not everyone can handle the stress of surviving independently, and not everyone can handle the pressure of knowing other people's lives are in their hands. The self-doubt that lingers throughout your mind will always loom over you. Still, only you decide if you'll admit you can't work alone or continue staying isolated and then succumb to your stubbornness as it chokes you with a familiar burning of rope around your neck.

If anyone has any suggestions to how to make the power fit the theme of self-doubt and depression, along with the first 2 perks, please let me know. I'd love to hear a bit of feedback.
