Killer Concept - The Broodmother

BombDiggaT

The Broodmother is a status effect killer whose patience and planning is rewarded with a higher chance to catch her prey. She's a spider-like creature who buries underground to catch survivors, lying in wait for the perfect opportunity to strike unsuspecting survivors who are none the wiser to her true location.

Stats

• Movement Speed: 115%
• Burrowed Movement Speed: 95%
• Terror Radius: 32 Meters
• Burrowed Terror Radius: 24 Meters
• Primary Weapon Fangs

Special Ability - Burrow

The Broodmother creates a burrow (Maximum of 5) at her current location. The Broodmother can use a burrow to tunnel underground and travel about the map at 95% speed. The Broodmother may tunnel between burrows at 230% speed with the secondary action button. While burrowed, the Broodmother has a slightly reduced terror radius, and cannot be hit by pallets. While Burrowed, the Broodmother may leap out and perform an attack directly above her current location. After surfacing from underground with an attack, the Broodmother is fatigued for 4 seconds.

• Burrows cannot be created within 20 meters of each other.

From the surface, the burrowed Broodmother appears to be a large black shadow on the ground.

Passive Ability - Venomous

Your fangs are coated in a mind numbing poison. Survivors struck by your attacks receive a 20% reduction in action speed for 60 seconds. Other survivors can remove this early effect with a special action to suck out the poison.

Some Add-ons may include:

Common/Uncommon/Rare

• Slightly(5%)/moderately (8%)/considerably (10%) increases your movement speed underground.
• Slightly (10 secs)/moderately(15 secs)/considerably(20 secs) increases the duration of Venomous.

Uncommon/Very Rare

• Slightly(4m)/Considerably (12m) reduces your terror radius while burrowed.[/list] [u]Rare/Very Rare[/u]
• Increases the limit on the number of burrows by 1/2.
• Moderately(2 secs)/Considerably(3.5 secs) reduces the fatigue time of emerging from Burrow.
• Completely eliminates your terror radius while burrowed.

Ultra Rare

• Attacks from burrow instantly grab survivors.
• Venomous now permanently reduces the action speed of a survivor by 10%. This effect cannot be removed and does not stack.

Perks

Sticky Situation (Level 30 Teachable) After passing through a pallet, the entity leaves behind a sticky substance on the pallet after 1 second. Survivors who throw an affected pallet are slowed by 9/12/15% for 4 seconds. This effect only applies to the last 3 pallets you've traveled through through. Survivors cannot vault over thrown affected pallets for the next 40/50/60 seconds.

Cold Heart (Level 35 Teachable) You become obsessed with one survivor. When near this survivor, your heartbeat slows in anticipation of the hunt. Your terror radius is slightly (8m)/moderately(12m)/moderately reduced and nothing/nothing/your movement speed is slightly increased.

Hex: Mortal Strike _(Level 40 Teachable) _ Your strikes aim to kill. Successful lunge attacks on healthy survivors will start a 56/48/40 second bleed-out timer. While bleeding out, the survivor must perform from a skill check every 12 seconds. Failing a skill check will result in the survivor screaming out, giving a visual notification to the killer.

The Hex effect persist as long as the related Hex Totem is standing.

Author's Note

This is just a rough concept, so I'm sure some things need to be buffed/nerfed.
