New Chapter idea: Gremlins
Killer: The Gremlins
Power: 3 Rules
The Gremlins power is divided into 2 parts
Part 1: The Leader of the pack (Stripe) starts the trial. During the start of the match Stripe is at his weakest as he needs his friends to help out. There is water and food scattered throughout the map which when used will respawn after a short duration. The same food and water cannot be used twice in a row. The water is what Stripe is mainly after. When you arrive to the water Stripe can interact with it and roll around in it creating 2 A.I controlled gremlins. These A.I gremlins will have no terror radius and will scout the map searching for survivors. However when they find a survivor Stripe will be notified and the player can choose to take control of that gremlin. If the player decided to control the gremlin Stripe will dig into the ground and hide there with no terror radius until you activate your ability again to switch back to him. Once you are in control of a minion Gremlin you move at a speed of 120% speed when pouncing and 110% speed for a minion Gremlin. Stripe moves at 115% speed and can pounce on the survivor which will start an animation. The survivor must complete a wiggle bar before the minion Gremlin can down him. The Gremlins can also bite but they should rely on their power to down survivors. There can be 5 A.I gremlins in the match. 6 water puddles will spawn by default. A.I Gremlins/ Minion Gremlins can be destroyed via flashlight. Keep in mind that A.I gremlins will NOT attack until you take control of them
Part 2: The food is used to strengthen Stripe and his minion gremlins, by eating the food Stripe gets a movement speed bonus that can go up to 120%. Stripe can also vault pallets and windows at a fast speed when he's eaten enough food. The more food that's eaten the less time it takes to down a survivor when you pounce, the more food eaten the harder it is to destroy A.I gremlins with Flashlights.
(Power might be too complicated but if I come up with something better I'll update this thread)
Perks:
Cruel Fun: You enjoy having fun with your prey in a cruel way, your successful attacks apply the hindered status effect for 2/3/4 seconds "Gizmo, Ca CA." -Stripe
Hex: Preparation: When the trial begins, generators will have decreased repair speed by 5/10/15 %, once the first generator is done or the Hex is destroyed generator repairs return to normal. "Oh, neat" -Stripe
Gremlin Frenzy: You enjoy the pain and it makes you crazy, gain a speed boost after any stun of 2/3/4% for 3/4/5 seconds. "Yum Yum" - Stripe
Mori: Stripe bites the survivor in the neck then pulls out a gun and shoots
Edit: I forgot, they have their own special pick up animation since they're smaller than the other killer. Stripe whistles and 2 other Gremlins will pop out of the ground and help carry the survivor
Survivor: Billy (It's ok, he has gizmo in a backpack similar to Neas' and it comes by default)
Perks
Determination: You are filled with determination to finish what you started, Generators damaged by the killer gain a 3/4/5% repair bonus
Distracted: You can entertain your attacker which will give you enough time for a swift escape, while in a chase noise notifications that you activate will activate somewhere else nearby. -"They're watching Snow White, and they love it."-Billy
Strange marks: You can confuse your attacker which will help you escape chases, while in a chase, every 20/15/10 seconds scratch marks will appear the opposite direction you are running for 3/4/5 seconds
Map: Kingston Falls

I get that his movement speed is high because he's small but because he is so fast he needs some sort of weakness in his power or he'll be too strong. It's why Nurse is slow and relies on her power to move around. Also, this leaves no room for addons, the food and water could be addons so that he doesn't completely overwhelm Survivors. Well the water can stay because it spawns the Gremlins sorry lol but he also sounds a lot like Hag but it's like the traps actually move around and then you can teleport to them. I really like the concept though, Stripe is awesome.

I really like the concept though, Stripe is awesome.Thanks, yeah, I did think it was a bit overwhelming too but like I said, we could cut it down so there's room for addons and stuff. I also did think of giving him 110% movement speed so they had to rely on their power to down but then I feel that he would end up like legion. I really like the movie Gremlins and I'd hate to see them be as underwhelming as Freddy or Legion. But, this is just a concept and I think Gremlins would be better suited for their own game

@HatCreature I got it! What if they only move at 120% speed when they're pouncing and the default speed is 110%. It should have a short cooldown though

Yeah that sounds awesome, they're small so they'd be hard to see, low TR, a rush that's cool, and that Mori is priceless.

I’d say the AI gremlins can not actually attack unless controlled, and have no actual attack. Just the animation to harass a survivor. The Killer player can then switch back to stripe and go after the Survivor (note the survivors struggle will become considerably easier if the AI is not player controlled).1

Cool ideas but Gremlins are not really horror. It's more of a comedy, especially the sequel. That vegetable gremlin man.

I would love to play those.^^
Gremlins FTW!^^1 -

That vegetable gremlin man.Yeah,first movie was meant as a horror comedy but the sequel is just a live-action cartoon. Just a few reasons to love em'. Besides I don't think they could ever make it in game due to their size

Made an edit talking about movement speed

Strange marks seems a bit OP lol. For how long do the scratch marks go a different direction? Does this mean you don't leave scratch marks at all for this period of time?
The idea of Gremlins is fun though but i don't think it really fits the game for some reason.1 -

I think it would be for a period of 3/4/5 seconds. Also I think it's because Gremlins have a ton of comedy elements, also they're really short

Also, it wouldn't be that OP since if the killer has eyes on you then he can just pay attention the you instead of the scratch marks. I would only hurt spirit a bit if the survivor also has iron will

Hey have you seen this before?

It's super accurate and I think you'll get a kick out of it.0 -
OH MY GOSH I LOVE THAT, it's so accurate. You know my username on here and basically anything I use that's online is based off the Phantom of the opera gremlin from the second one. You know the one that gets his face burned off with acid and he puts a phantom of the opera mask onHatCreature said:Hey have you seen this before?

@HatCreature Now that I think of it, should the gremlins theme play while the survivor is struggling to get the gremlin off off them? The game is horror but the Gremlins theme is way too iconic to be left out. That's like having Myers without his Halloween music, or Freddy without his lullaby, or Amanda without the reverse bear trap or billy the puppet, or Leatherface without his chainsaw!

You know damn well that you don't constantly have eyes on a survivor especially with some tiny ass Gremlin lol. What about Key & Peele as killers?PhantomMask20763 said:@Broosmeister said:
