The Songstress Killer Concept

Inferno427

Something I was working on and thought would be appropriate to post now since we're possibly getting a music-themed killer next.

Appearance: A woman in a large voluminous dress, holding a bloody microphone stand. She wears a white porcelain mask with a beautiful woman's face.

Description: An intimidating killer, who forces survivors to cower and hide.

Once the star of musicals and operas, she turned to albums and sung her way to fame and fortune. A poor girl who always dreamed of a happier life. She kept climbing the social ladder without a sign of it stopping.

The young artist was promoting her new album when she was attacked after rejecting a fan. Angry and hateful, her rage at her fans was captured on camera and shown to the world. Afterward, she was thrown away by record labels.

What the camera didn't show were the scars she gained. Emotional scars that made her angry and hateful. Physical scars that marred her beauty. Every time she saw herself she grew more and more hateful until she took to wearing a mask. 

She found refuge on the stage, trying to rebuild her glory and recapture the spotlight. She worked to write her own play. A tale of a weary soul seeking peace.

The old record label that threw her away, greedy and malicious, attempted to force her back through her contract. Red tape and chains that would take what she had made. Anger and wrath overwhelmed her entirely. The sound of her madness permeated the record company.

What she did that night became the highlight of the news all over the nation. Numerous TV specials and movies based on her actions captivated the public's interest for decades to come. But despite the spectacle, she was never seen again after that night, the only thing she left behind was a blood-stained manuscript.

Base stats: 115% speed. 32m terror radius, tall height

Power: Spotlight Solo

The Songstress can press M2 to enter Solo mode. If she is stunned, blinded, or makes an aggressive action, she exits Solo mode and has a 20s power recovery.

While in Solo mode; her terror radius becomes non-directional and all Survivors in her terror radius have their camera locked onto the direction of The Songstress. While a survivor is looking at The Songstress, they are affected by killer instinct and slowly become Targeted. If they are hit, they lose all progress to become Targeted.

If a survivor is Targeted, they become Exposed and have their aura revealed while in your Terror Radius. While they can see The Songstress their timer won't decrease.

Ultra Rare Add-on; Iridescent Record:

The first and only recording of her madness. The noise of billowing fog permeates the background.

Tremendously decreases the speed at which survivors become Targeted.  Considerably increases the duration that survivors are Targeted.  All Survivors share progress and duration of Targeted.

Ultra Rare Add-on; First Draft.

Hope and dreams manifest, prime to be cut down. The memory brings forth murderous rage against all nearby.

Upon putting a Targetted Survivor into the Dying State, the auras of all Survivors in your terror radius and all Targetted Survivors outside your Terror Radius; are revealed for 4-seconds.

Perk: Showstopper

The aura of the hatch is revealed within 32m.

Move 3/4/5% faster during the End Game Collapse.

Perk: Cruel Encore

Once per trial, while the Exit Gates are unpowered, you may damage a completed Generator. A completed Generator damaged by this perk immediately regresses to 50/25/0%, all Survivors see the aura of this Generator and it cannot be damaged, blocked, or regressed for the rest of the trial.

Peek: Intimidating Presence

Decrease the walk and crouch speed of all Survivors in your Terror Radius by 10/15/20%. Decrease the Vault speed of all Survivors in your Terror Radius by 5/7.5/10%
