Dead by Daylight: DOOM Paragraph
Hey! This is my first submission to the dead by daylight forums, I'll probably edit this when I build upon this idea a bit more, but here is my idea for a Doom themed Paragraph! (I also made photo illustrations using Garry's Mod to show what it would be like)
New Killer: The Hell Knight
Hell Knights are Large towering brutes from the lower pits of hell, they are bred to be the most savage, violent warriors of the demon hordes, they stomp towards their targets and would slam their fists into the ground to create Shockwave to stagger their opponents before unleashing an onslaught of bone-shattering punches. They also served as the guards of their masters and enforcers of the lesser demons, ruling over them with an iron fist. The many demons of hell greatly interested the entity as they could make the finest killers for the trials, they readily serve their masters to the death and wont have to be persuaded to kill, however the decision ultimately came to choosing this specimen as it had all the qualities needed to be a killer.
The Hell Knight would probably stand a few inches shorter than Nemesis, here is a size comparison between a few of the other killers
Power: Ground Slam
This is the hell Knights signature power in the Doom games, how it will work is if you hold right mouse, the Hell Knight will go into a jumping stance, and when ready, press ctrl and it will leap into the air and slam its fist into the ground near its target, causing them to stagger and fall over, leaving you open to a Mouse 1 punch attack. Certain add-ons can also make the survivors suffer the exposed status if caught in a ground slam, which could leave them to being downed instantly.
Animations:
Door: Like Nemesis, it will only take one swing to demolish a door, but is slightly faster.
Pallet stun: It will looks like it's more annoyed that there is an obstacle in their way and would probably swipe at their target from behind it, growling angrily.
Breaking a pallet: will punch 2 times before eventually breaking it.
Hooking: Keeping with its brutal nature, the Hell Knight will forcefully shove the survivors onto the sacrificial hook as if it's trying to make it a really painful experience.
First person perspective
If you all have any ideas to improve this, let me know!

Wow! I really like the visualisations you've done with Garrys Mod. I think a Doom chapter would be very fitting but I'm just wondering who would make for the most fitting killer? The Hell Knight is cool but he feels too much like a normal enemy to be worthy of a killer. Perhaps the Baron of Hell? who would effectively have the same moves but he just has Horns too. The Cyberdemon or Cacodemon would also make Good killers but have some sizing issues.
Overall I like the idea and the power - a leaping killer is something yet to be seen in Dead By Daylight, however I feel like it needs to be more complex than just hold the button and leap in order to work in the game because if its that simple the killer would probably either be very overpowered or very underpowered.

I did consider a few others, like the Prowler, The Baron of Hell like you said and the Marauder, who could also fit the role as killer, maybe I could do some other illustrations of those as well
