Killer
Biography of The Widow:
Marie Swanson was a quiet, gentle lady who cared for all life, no matter how small. She's the kind of lady who would rescue a simple house spider from being crushed and release it back in to the wild. Her love of all life sparked the interest of her soon-to-be husband, Markus. They fell in love almost instantly and got married as soon as they could. Although, her family did not approve of the marriage. She moved away with Markus in order to start a new life where they only needed eachother. However, as time went on, love faded and changed into spite and anger. Markus was no longer the loving husband he once was, in fact, he had changed into an abusive, uncaring, overweight husband who was holding Marie back. One night, when lying in bed, Marie heard whispers, telling her to dark and terrible things she wouldn't normally consider, but, with the current circumstances, she listened to the instructions carefully. She went around the woods the next day and found spiders she's never seen before, almost like they didn't belong here. Nonetheless, she took them and kept them safe in a jar. She went into her home the next day and set to work. When neighbors haven't seen either one enter or leave the house in over a week, they called the police. When police arrived on scene, they found the body of Markus, bitten, bloated, and barely recognizable. Marie was placed as the primary suspect, however, they were never able to find her.

Power; Widowed Webs:
With The Widow, you are able to shoot webs in any spot you'd like. When shooting web in a door way, window, pallet, or even the ground, the webbing will be placed and create a sticky trap. When survivors run through these trap, they gain the status effect of Webbing 1, they are slightly hindered in movement speed. With Webbing 2, they are moderately hindered in movement speed. Webbing 3 considerably hindered in movement speed. And within Webbing 4, survivors must complete a 2 second "Wiggle Out" action where they are unable to move and must wiggle out similar to wiggling out of the killers grasp. Once wiggling out, they are reset to Webbing 2. Webbing status effect disappears over time. Should a survivor be shot directly by webbing, they will immediately gain a Webbing status tier. For her passive ability, she leaves a trail of webs behind her for up to 6 seconds. Should any survivor run through it, they are slowed down (Similar to Clown's intoxication) and begging to slow down even more the longer they're in it, if they're in it for 6 seconds they must immediately wiggle out. This power can be used to block loops and prevent survivors from running around the same pallet without being punished or being risky. She holds 15 webbing and once she runs out, she needs to complete a 6 second recharge time to replenish all webs.
