Killer Concept: The Machine.
DBD Killer idea: the Machine (HARD)
This is my first ever attempt at making a character for, well, anything! I don’t know if he is op or if he is okay so let me know what you all think!
Has 4 legs with the design of a spider on his lower half but humanoid on his upper half.
POWER: metal reign
The Machine can insert jagged metal into generators, the next survivor to complete a skill check on that generator gets the metal stuck in their hand, making all actions (generators, items, unhooking) slower and will scream if doing any action, they will also need to get help within a time limit or the go down an injury state.
(Another survivor has to take out the metal, time limit is around 40 seconds, can’t be put in dying state.)
The Machine can affect 3 gens at a time and once a survivor has taken the metal, that gen can’t be affected again. (The Machine can’t take the metal out of a gen once put in.)
If 2 survivors gets stabbed, the Machine can replace a gen with a fake one that will instantly down any survivor that touches it (will disappear after 2 survivors have touched it)
Doing this takes away one hook from the map.
(The hook taken away is the closest one to the generator making him travel farther from it)
EXTRA DETAILS
the Machine attacks using his front right leg, and the animation for hitting a survivor goes as follows: The Machine swings then has to replace the end of his leg with more metal as it broke when hitting the survivor.
This killer is about stalling the game for as long as he can and making the survivors more cautious while the survivors should stay close to one another to quickly help each other and communicate what is safe and what isn’t.
WEAKNESSES
A survivor could see the killer inserting the metal into a generator and the killer would have to be smart about choosing when and what generators to use.
The Machine would also have double the amount of footsteps due to his 4 legs.
KILLER MORI
The Machine picks up the survivor by the neck, they then summon sharp pieces of metal to stick out of the ground, the Machine throws the survivor on their back onto the metal, the machine then walks over the survivor pushing them further down and finally stomps on their head.
DBD: The Machine story
Jackson Roberts,17,male.
Jackson was a rather blunt individual, the friend group he had didn’t seem to care about his straight-forward way of life, which he was thankful for. One night, one of Jackson’s friends message their group chat asking if they wanted to explore an abandoned car wreck. Jackson thought that it could be a fun experience so he agreed. When Jackson and his friend group arrived at the wreck, they seemed a bit nervous and scared to enter, Jackson on the other hand just wanted to get in and explore. He marched past his friends and into the wreck. Making his friends hurry after him. They eventually found a rather tall stack of disassembled cars. His friends started daring each other to climb the stack so Jackson took it upon himself to climb it, not caring all to much about the reactions of his friends. He made it to the top rather quickly, but due to it raining at the moment, when he went to get down he slipped and fell off the stacks into another pile of metallic parts. When he landed, and sudden rush of pain shot through his body, but it was primarily in his legs, Jackson gathered enough strength to lift his head and look down. His legs had been cut off due to a sharp circular piece of metal sticking out. He nearly passed out from the shock but once again gathered the strength to look towards his group of “friends”. They all just stared at him with widened eyes. “Help...” was all he could muster with the breath seemingly lost from his lungs. But then, his friends all quickly panicked and hurriedly left the wreck. Jackson would’ve screamed at them if he could’ve. The next thing he knows, his vision is going blurry, due to the blood loss or his tears he couldn’t tell. The last thing Jackson sees is a ghostly fog slowly close over him, as a awful tightening and impaling feeling shoots through what remains of his legs.
Within the trials, he sees all the survivors running around with the same anger he saw when he friends ran from him, abandoning him.
