Power - The Perfect Organism

Thousands of years of evolution have created the ultimate hunter, capable of surviving almost any environment to hunt and kill whatever moves.

Special Ability - Prowl

Press the active ability button (Lcntrl) for The Alien to get down on all fours. This action takes 1 second to activate. While using Prowl, The Alien is affected by the Undetectable status effect and all perks that would give away The Alien are rendered useless. All survivors that are injured are revealed in a 12 meter radius via Killer Instinct. Blood is significantly brighter while in Prowl. Attacking while in Prowl initiates a special attack. The Alien is still capable of breaking generators/pallets/walls and is able to check lockers while in prowl. Exiting Prowl takes 1 second and is toggled by the active ability button (Lcntrl).

Special Attack - Skewer 

Attacking while in Prowl causes The Alien to lash its tail forwards, skewering survivors directly in front of The Alien. Survivors caught by Skewer are inflicted with the Deep Wounds status effect and are damaged for one health state. Skewer has a cooldown of 1.5 seconds if missed. Skewer has a range of 3 meters. Skewer cannot down an injured survivor. Has a 2.25 second cooldown for a successful attack.

Special Attack - Pounce 

Holding the Power button will start a pounce, after 0.75 seconds a Pounce is fully charged, press the attack button to send The Alien leaping forwards, The Alien while in this state moves at a movement speed of 460% or 18.4 m/s. Pounce has a maximum range of 8 meters. Survivors hit by Pounce are damaged a single health state. If The Alien collides with an object while Pouncing, The Alien will latch onto that object, allowing The Alien to release a Lethal Pounce in any direction within a 70 degree angle on either side of The Alien. Lethal Pounce travels a maximum of 6 meters and moves at a movement speed of 460% or 18.4 m/s. Lethal Pounce allows The Alien to Pounce over pallets and through windows. Lethal Pounce does not allow the Alien to latch onto a different wall (without add-ons). The cooldown for a missed Pounce or Lethal Pounce is 2.25 seconds. While latched onto a wall, pressing the Active Ability Button (Lcntrl) will cause The Alien to detach from the wall, which takes 0.75 seconds. Canceling a Pounce results in a cooldown of 0.45 seconds. The Alien moves at a movement speed of 96.5% or 3.86 m/s while charging a Pounce attack. Has a 2.5 second cooldown for a successful attack.

Hi, thank you making it to the very end if you're reading this. I started this little concept back in June 29th, 2020. Yeah an entire year, crazy huh? This went through so many different revisions and changes and number tweaks that I honestly poured way too much effort into it, way more more than I should have in all honesty. I've watched the Alien movie so many times when I making this, I'm pretty sure the movie is burned into my brain at this point. But, I hope you enjoyed reading!

This was mainly inspired by FirstEncounterAssualt's ALIEN lobby and chase theme video on YouTube, it was playing in the background while I was writing this a lot, love the music he did for ALIEN, highly recommend you check it out and give it a watch if you haven't already. I'd love to discuss my ideas with everyone willing to discuss, I poured a lot of time and effort into this and feedback would be greatly appreciated, especially considering just...how much unneeded depth I put into this.
