New killer idea The Beast / Instinct
Name ideas (predator is not gonna be usable but is to describe what kind of creature it is)
The Beast / predator / Instinct / prowler
Height: average
Speed: 4.6m
A reptilian killer able to walk on both two legs and four who uses its heightened senses and predatory instincts to hunt down and kill survivor chosen by the entity for its merciless nature and unending hunger the Beast is a fearsome hybrid creature created during experiments trying to breed large felines with reptilian creatures in order to make a perfect predator, it worked a little too well...
the reason the killer is able to move on two and four legs is so that it can carry people to the hook as reworking the hook system to allow the creature to move a survivor in its mouth would require a lot of reworking.
Description (very short)
The Beast is a venomous reptilian creature with razor-sharp teeth, a long wiping tail and talon-like claws it moves around on two or four legs choosing either to use its height as a way to sneak up on survivors and pounce or using its taller form to locate its prey striking fear into them with its terrifying howl
Killer power
Howl
While the beast is on its two legs it is able to let out a powerful howl in order to flush prey out from hiding
The beast releases a terrifying howl causing all survivors in a 36m radius to make a difficult skill check failing to make the check will cause the survivor to let out a scream revealing their location to the killer (with killer instinct, not aura). The howl will no affect a survivor that is in chase, on the hook or dyeing
The howl will have a channel time of 2.5 seconds (addons could change)
The howl will have a cooldown of 15 seconds (addons could change)
Pounce
while the beast is on four legs it is able to use its pounce witch becomes its m1 attack
An alternate attack where the beast leaps 10m forward dealing normal damage (one health stage) and inflating a debilitating infection on the survivor.
The pounce will have a channel of 1 second (during this time the killer with stop moving as it charges its pounce. meaning it can not just be held and used during a chase and is something that the killer must commit too.
Missing the ponce will incur a stun of 3 seconds (addons could change)
New Status effect (beast unique)
Infection:
Tremendously decreases the survivor's speed while repairing generators, unhooking, powering gates or healing
Infection is only removed when a survivor fully heals a (survivor affected by broken is unable to remove the effect until they remove their broken.
My logic behind making the infection so harsh is to give the killer pressure without just tunnelling people. Of course, perks like sloppy butcher would not stack with this effect so healing does not become almost impossible.
Teachable perks
Mersilouce hunter (lv 30)
While in a chase the killer vault speed is greatly increased and successful attack slightly increase the killers speed for 10 seconds
Stalker (lv 35)
While you are within 32m of your obsession you gain undetectable. If the obsession is killed or d/c the obsession effect will move to another survivor.
Hex: Camouflage (lv 40)
While the totem is active the killers arua can not be seen by any survivor
