Chapter Concept - Cursed, cursed creator! Why did I live?
Hey DBD community ,
I love this game and have enjoyed playing it for the last year! I am keen to give back to the community and recently, I came up with a Killer concept, inspired by the classic Frankenstein's Monster. I've written out the details below and it would be great to get your feedback! Thanks everyone
The Creature
Name: None
Gender: None (Looks predominantly male / male voice)
Ethnicity: None
Realm: Léry’s Memorial Institute
Power: Dead Eyes / Bear Down Upon
Weapon: Dead Hand
Speed: 115% | 4.6m/s
Alt. Speed : 95% | 3.8m/s (1 sec Wind-up), 150% | 6m/s
Background:
A creature that was not born, but made of the organs, muscles, bones, skins of countless dead bodies and given new life by a crazed doctor, consumed with his experiments to cheat death. Forcibly awoken from what was meant to be an eternal rest, the creature loathes its creator for bringing them into a world that is horrified by the very sight of the wretched flesh golem.
The Creature has relentlessly pursued their creator, across continents and from pole to pole, looking to exact its bloody revenge and killing many others in its rampage. Such intense hatred for life attracted the attention of The Entity, which enticed The Creature into its domain with the promise of endless slaughter and to deliver it the man that they had searched for all this time.
Power - Dead Eyes (Passive) / Bear Down Upon (Active)
Dead Eyes (Passive): The creature is an abomination of flesh and undeath that puts fear in the hearts of all those that are unfortunate enough to look at it. Your gaze will build up terror in their mind and soul, causing panic as they fear your unstoppable approach.
When a survivor looks in the direction of The Creature and is unobscured by terrain, Terror starts to stack. Terror stacks do not diminish while in a chase and will only disappear if the Survivor wins the chase or The Creature hits the Survivor. At 6 stacks (6 seconds), the Survivor will suffer from the Confusion Status, which will last for 2 seconds. There is a 2 second cooldown after a Survivor has been affected before Terror can begin to stack again.
Note: ‘Confusion’ is status effect that inverts camera and movement controls for the duration of the effect.
Bear Down Upon (Active). After a 1 sec wind up, in which The Creature moves at reduced speed, it will sprint towards its target with arms outstretched, with slightly reduced control over manoeuvrability. Survivor’s unfortunate enough to be in the path of The Creature will be picked up off their feet and forced into a chokehold. The Creature will attempt to suffocate the Survivor and if is successful will put The Survivor straight into the dying state.
Standardly, it takes 8 seconds to choke out a Survivor and The Creature can still move at 33% | 1.32 m/s. Survivors can use Decisive Strike to break out of the chokehold, flashlight and pallet saves will also break the grasp, putting the Survivor into the injured state.
Cancelling the power early, reaching the maximum range or missing your target results in a 1 second cooldown. Cancelling the power before it has charged does not result in cooldown. Standard maximum range is 12 metres.
Weapon - Dead Hand:
The tremendous strength of The Creature and the cold, dead weight of its hands make for more than effective weapons, hitting as hard as a sledge hammer.
The Creature can not lunge attack.
Unique / Teachable Perks

“It will chase you to the ends of the earth, without rest. There is no escape from this monster”
Doctor’s Diary
Into The Pit
As your victims come closer to death, anticipation and excitement grows as you come nearer to taking another life.
Hooking a Survivor grants Haste effect for the duration of the time a Survivor is on a hook.
1 Survivor on hook. 2%
2 Survivors on hook. 3%
3 Survivors on hook. 4%
Haste will last for 30/45/60 seconds after a Survivor is unhooked. If the Survivor is sacrificed the Haste effect becomes permanent (Tier 3 only.)
“It is obsessed with death and creates nothing but death in its wake”
Doctor’s Diary
Indestructible
Even the boldest are afraid to confront you and will not likely cross paths with you if they can avoid it.
Survivor’s not in a chase that are within 12/18/24 metres of you are affected with maximum terror radius and can not discern the direction of the heartbeat.
“As I close my eyes to sleep, I hear The Creature all around me and see it’s eyes burning into my mind and soul”
