Fan Chapter: The Vampire Diaries
New Killer: Klaus Mikaelson (The Hybrid)
Lore:
One of the Original Vampires, Klaus was also born a Werewolf. Half-Vampire, Half-Werewolf his WItch-Mother suppressed his Werewolf half. For centuries, Klaus sought to undo the curse and become a full blooded Hybrid. He killed anyone who stood in his way, bringing with him a reign of terror that struck fear in the hearts of all who knew his name. Once he broke the curse, he could build the family he always wanted.
Perks:
Always and Forever
- Your oath invokes a dark power that meddles with the survivors chances of survival. At the start of the trial, all Totems are blocked by the Entity for 100/110/120 seconds.
- "Always and forever is not just something you weasel out of, brother." - Klaus Mikaelson
Hex: Murderous Heart
- As long as this totem is standing, whenever you hook a survivor the survivor furthest from you will scream alerting you of their location and become exposed for 20/30/40 seconds.
- "Don't underestimate the allure of the darkness. Even the purest hearts are drawn to it." - Klaus Mikaelson
Merciful Lies
- Sometimes lying is the greatest mercy. ONE Ghost Generator will spawn on the map along with the normal generators. The generator will act as any other generator. Once survivors have completed 50/60/70% of the generator, the generator will disappear. This generator's aura will appear to you in white. It will turn Blue if someone is working on it.
NOTES:
-If two survivors are equidistant for the purposes of Murderous Heart, the survivor who was last further from the killer will scream and become exposed
-Survivors do receive bloodpoints from Merciful Lies, and it regresses the same as other generators. Ghost Generators will only spawn in areas that generators normally spawn.
Power
Primary Power: Vampirism
Klaus can bite survivors. Biting them will injure them, but will only down them after biting into them twice in a row without healing. As klaus feeds on survivors, he fills his power bar. Once his power bar is full, he can speed around the map at 7.04 m/s until his power bar runs out. He is in full control while speeding around the map.
Vervain will spawn around the map. While within 8 meters of vervain, survivors will see its aura. Survivors can consume Vervain to reduce the amount of power Klaus fills from feeding.
Secondary Power: Compulsion
In addition to being able to bite survivors and speed around the map, he can also use Compulsion. Compelled survivors cannot work on generators until they consume Vervain. (Compelled Survivors will see Vervain within 16 meters instead of 8) Consuming Vervain only takes 2 seconds.
Notes:
Obviously a lot of this would require testing. But he'd be similar to Spirit, but with limitations, and in place of the limitations, a slowdown similar to Doctor/Pig. Unlike Spirit, survivors would still be able to see him while moving. But he'd also be able to see survivors.The exact numbers would need to be worked out. His power bar would last a little longer than Spirit's, but would have to be refilled through biting survivors (which injures, but does only downs if they don't heal between feeding)

(Yes, I just want Nina Dobrev as a Survivor. Though the show was surprisingly good at first)
A lot of this could use some real work, it's just some rough ideas. I didn't pour too much thought into them. I'd love a vampire killer, though.
