Chapter Concept #1 - Ruthless Ambition (Killer and Survivor)

TheLegendarium

Chapter Concept - Chapter XXV - Ruthless Ambition

New Map - Coven of Wonders: A mansion of all sorts of colors and filled to the brim with magical artifacts and things. Rooms include a kitchen with refrigerators instead of lockers, an outside target practice area with lots of magical flora, and the gathering room, filled with large chairs and a large throne for the Coven Leader to hide behind. Bathrooms and dining rooms, as well as classrooms, also adorn the area. Overall a very spacious map with not very many window vaults, but with plenty of areas to hide from the Killer, as well as plenty of loops around which to loop the Killer, but not very many tall structures. Think Midwich but all as 1 story.

New Killer: The Magician

New Survivor: Andrew Vanderbilt

THE MAGICIAN

DIFFICULTY: HARD

A demonic Killer, able to convert energy from generators and Survivors into magic using Energy Conversion, which he uses to throw projectiles that let him curse Survivors or attack them outright and go in for the kill using his power, Flourish. If worst comes to worst, he will Ascend, becoming something straight out of nightmare.

His personal perks, Master Magician, Hex: Divine Intervention, Hex: Infinite Wisdom, allow him to keep Survivors’ objective efforts down and patrol the map with efficiency.

Attributes

Speed: 4.4m/s

Terror Radius: 40m

The Magician’s terror radius is visible, as he has mist corresponding to the stance he is in wafting off of him to generators and Survivors.

Height: Average

Weapon: Glowing Scepter. The Scepter is made out of the same spidery tendrils The Entity uses, which make up the pole of it. The tip bears the Orb of the Entity, a rainbow iridescent orb, which is protected by the spidery legs which point outwards.

 

Lore:

Alekzander Morningstar was born to James and Alicia Morningstar, two of the most powerful members of their Coven. Alekzander was born on June 6th, 1996. His parents knew from a young age that Alekzander would be powerful, especially when they realized that a dark deity was surrounding their child, a being they believed to be their Lord, Lucifer, otherwise known as the Devil.

Growing up, Alekzander was raised in the Coven, taught by every possible mentor that was in the Coven to hone and master his magic. His power and skill was completely unmatched, and at the age of 12 he quickly gained fame and notoriety as one of the youngest masters of magic. But even after learning everything the Coven had to offer him, Alekzander only wanted one thing.

More.

As Alekzander took on more on a teaching role as he became older, he began to befriend the son of the Coven’s leader, Andrew Vanderbilt. Andrew, as the next leader of the Coven, was privy to spells and rituals that only his family knew of, and Alekzander convinced him to share this information with him. And being none the wiser, Andrew did.

Years after this, he confided in his parents that he wanted better and more powerful Magic to learn. Knowing this was inevitable, his parents revealed a secret to him – they were direct descendants of Lucifer himself, and he was the source of their astounding power. Alekzander explained he wanted to meet Lucifer himself, and so his parents, believing this was his destiny, set it up.

Upon meeting Lucifer, Alekzander explained to him that he wanted even greater power than he had, better spells, more powerful incantations – everything. Lucifer grinned, conjuring forth a glowing black book, explaining that the tome held the most powerful spells known to him – but in exchange, he wanted Alekzander’s soul. Alekzander quickly made the trade. Alekzander, upon making the trade, could tell that something was watching him with approval, happy to see him make the trade.

Upon reading the book and practicing the spells, Alekzander was left disappointed. He had given up his soul – and for what? Marginally more powerful spells than the ones he was used to? He had been tricked, by his own flesh and blood. He was angry, and he needed even more power.

Despite this, things with Andrew escalated to the point of dating. Alekzander and Andrew were the ultimate power couple, and they were soon engaged to be wed. Alekzander was truly in love with Andrew, as he was the only thing that Alekzander was truly satisfied with in life.

Unfortunately, Andrew’s father passed away one night in their home, and no one could find out the reason for it. Andrew prepared to take over as the Coven Leader, and began preparing to move his father’s things out, asking Alekzander for help. But one night, while going through Andrew’s father’s things, Alekzander read a diary scroll about an enigmatic deity that was watching one of his Coven members – Alekzander Morningstar. The Coven leader’s entries became more and more desperate over time, explaining that this deity was relentless, and was removing every obstacle in between itself and the boy. On the day he passed away, the Coven Leader wrote that it had realized exactly what this being was, and that he devised a plan to summon and try to contain this threat before it could take Alekzander Morningstar, and he knew the results of it getting its hands on such a powerful Mage would be catastrophic.

Alekzander took the diary, telling Andrew nothing, and parsed the ritual that the previous Coven Leader had detailed. The ingredients were extremely easy to gather, all except one – a goblet filled with blood from the performer’s family. After debating with himself back and forth, Alekzander stole a sacrificial blade and a sacred goblet from his parent’s collection of artifacts, and went into their beds as they slept, slicing them to drain a bit of their blood. To Alekzander’s horror, they bled profusely, as the blade drained more and more of their life force. Alekzander cried over their bodies and apologized incredibly as his parents died before his very eyes. He left before they took their last breaths and threw the blade to the ground, taking the filled goblet with him. Alekzander performed the ritual, using the blood as an offering for The Entity. After performing this ritual, Alekzander was pulled into The Entity’s realm. Alekzander explained to the Entity that he knew what he had done to the Coven Leader, but instead of coming to stop it, Alekzander wanted to join it, so long as the Entity promised to give Alekzander the power he had been searching for for all these years. The Entity relented, and Alekzander smiled as the power filled, enlightened, and invigorated him.

And the ambition.

TheLegendarium

Power: Flourish

Passive: Energy Conversion

Active: Divine Daggers, Beam of Beelzebub, Orb of the Occult

 

A gift passed down from a hierarchical bloodline, magic is a power that Alekzander excels at and utilizes for deadly purpose. Known for his affinity for converting any type of energy into magic, he can take power and devastate opponents with blasts of their own making.

ENERGY CONVERSION

When Alekzander has a generator within his terror radius with progress on it, he siphons its energy and converts it into usable Magic that fuels his projectiles. While close to a generator that is actively being repaired, Alekzander steals its energy at 100% of normal generator regression value (0.25 Charges per second) until he leaves its range, and when a generator is not being repaired, he steals its energy at 150% the normal stealing value. Alekzander can hold up to 200 charges of magic at any time. Regression of those generators immediately stops when Alekzander is either at maximum charges or leaves their radius. Every .25 Charges stolen from a generator corresponds to 1 charge of Magic. Alekzander begins each game with 30 Charges immediately available

Alekzander has 3 stances, each of which grants him access to different projectiles. Pressing the ability button allows him to switch between the three at will, altering his flying stance slightly and the color of his Magic.

Altar of Confession

Throughout the map, Alekzander has Altars of Confession where Survivors can go to rid themselves of any Curses they may have. There are 5 in any given Map spread throughout it – 1 near the center, and 1 near all of the 4 corners of the map. When a Survivor Confesses, they are cleansed of any debuffs associated with their Curses but leave behind charges that Alekzander can consume and convert into Magic. Survivors will always be able to see the Auras of Altars of Confession at any time.

Divine Daggers

Alekzander’s first projectile stance is Divine Daggers. These are summoned by holding the power button for 1 second, which spawns 3 glowing red daggers from Alekzander’s hands. Alekzander can hold the power button indefinitely, charging the shot, which increases their speed. When he presses the attack button, one of the 3 daggers flies forward at incredible speed, lodging itself inside of any Survivor it hits. When he presses it again, the second dagger is fired, and when he presses it once more, the third dagger flies. If all 3 daggers land in the same Survivor that is not Cursed, that Survivor is injured. If a Survivor is afflicted by a Curse, they only need be shot with 2 Daggers to become injured. If a Survivor is afflicted by both of his Curses, they only need 1 Dagger to become injured.

Summoning Divine Daggers consumes 20 charges each time it is attempted.

Beam of Beelzebub

Alekzander’s second projectile stance is Beam of Beelzebub. This is a mid-ranged projectile with a range of 32 meters that is conjured by holding the power button, which causes Alekzander’s hands to glow a bright green color. When Alekzander fires it, it sends forward a wide beam that afflicts Survivors with Beelzebub’s Curse. This Curse afflicts them with the Oblivious and Blindness Status Effects, in addition to causing them to hear intermittent crying and screaming from other Survivors in the game at varying distances.

Firing a Beam of Beelzebub consumes 10 charges each time it is attempted and has a cooldown of 10 seconds in between each attempt.

Orb of the Occult

Alekzander’s third projectile stance is Orb of the Occult. This is a long ranged projectile with a range of 40 meters that is conjured by holding the power button, which causes Alekzander to create a glowing blue orb in his right hand. When Alekzander fires it, it sends forward the orb, exploding on contact with a Survivor or terrain, showering the area in a mist that afflicts Survivors with the Occultic Curse, which causes Survivors to be unable to perform the sabotage or totem cleansing actions, in addition to seeing dense, thick dark blue fog everywhere, rendering them unable to see things that are outside of a 32 meter range of themselves besides Auras.

Firing an Orb of the Occult consumes 10 charges each time it is attempted and has a cooldown of 10 seconds in between each attempt.

 

ASCENSION

When the exit gates are powered, Alekzander is overcome by an anger that is almost psychotic in nature. His normally handsome and beautiful features transform, corrupting and turning him into a dark demonic figure – still beautiful in nature, but now more menacing and much more malicious.

While ascended, The Magician no longer requires charges to cast his magic, and Beam of Beelzebub and Orb of the Occult both injure heathy Survivors. Divine Daggers now charges instantly as well. In addition, Alekzander’s lunges gain an extra 40% range and travel in the same time as before.

TheLegendarium

Teachable Perks:

Master Magician: Survivors who cleanse any totems are Hindered for 15 seconds after doing so. When a Hex Totem is cleansed, continue to keep its effects for 45/60/75 seconds even after it should no longer be active.

“My magical prowess exceeds that of the greatest you’ve ever seen.” – Alekzander Morningstar

 

Hex: Divine Intervention: A Hex rooting its power on a deep partnership with The Entity.

You can damage generators that are regressing, already blocked, or that do not have any progress on them. While you damage a generator, press the active ability button to have the Entity block that generator for the duration that the Hex totem it is attached to stands. Only one generator may be blocked in this way. The generator’s Aura is highlighted white for all players in the Trial.

Divine Intervention has a cooldown of 50/40/30 seconds.

“I am no mere servant of The Entity - we are partners in every sense of the word.” – Alekzander Morningstar

 

Hex: Infinite Wisdom: When a Survivor begins performing an action of completing a generator, cleansing a totem, or healing another Survivor, gain 1 token for the duration of the action up to 5/6/7. Gain 1 additional token for each additional Survivor doing the action if the action is being performed as a coop action. Each token grants 1% Haste. If you have maximum stacks of Infinite Wisdom, gain 2/3/4% additional Haste.

When this totem begins to be cleansed, gain a loud noise notification and instantly receive maximum stacks of this perk.

“His intelligence is incredible… he almost appears to be omniscient.” – Andrew Vanderbilt

 

 

NEW SURVIVOR: ANDREW VANDERBILT

DIFFICULTY: INTERMEDIATE

A learned coven leader, capable of evading the Killer while helping his allies in powerful ways.

His personal perks, Overinformed, Weakness Into Strength, and The Assistant’s Revenge, allow him to keep tabs on the Killer’s location and keep his allies out of dangers’ way, even if he must sacrifice himself to do so.

Teachable Perks:

Overinformed: You have spent a lifetime studying your enemies from afar, as knowing your enemy is the best path to defeating them.

Each time the Killer hits, downs, or finishes killing a Survivor, see the Killer’s aura for 3 seconds.

“I am prepared for every situation, more than you can ever know.” – Andrew Vanderbilt.

 

Weakness Into Strength: You must put up a strong front for others and help take away their pain – it’s what you’ve always been taught.

Whenever you heal yourself, gain 32/48/64 tokens when you finish, up to a maximum of 128.

When healing other Survivors, you gain a speed increase equal to the number of tokens you have accumulated. You lose tokens as you heal other Survivors, losing up to half of the total tokens you have as you heal them.

When healing yourself while you already have tokens, gain the benefit of only half of the tokens you have and gain only 16/24/32 tokens.

“I’ll never give up on you, Alekzander, but you have to trust me. Please.” – Andrew Vanderbilt

 

The Assistant’s Revenge: You are incapable of leaving others to die, and you know just the trick to do it.

When a Survivor is on Death Hook and they take a hit that would otherwise down them, you instead switch places with them and take the Deep Wounds status effect, as well as the Broken status effect permanently until you are downed, but you receive no burst of speed if you are healthy and are immediately dropped to the ground if you are injured. That Survivor is instead given the Deep Wounds status effect.

This can only happen once per Trial, and can only happen once per Trial per Survivor. This perk automatically deactivates if you are on Death Hook yourself.

Equipping this perk increases your chances to be the Killer’s Obsession at the start of the trial.

If more than one Survivor is running this perk, the one who is the Obsession will swap places if possible, and another player still running the active perk is chosen as the Obsession.

“His magic is potent, and the only thing stronger than it is his unwavering and unselfish desire to help others.” – Alekzander Morningstar
