Chapter Concept: X

PassarinoT · November 2022

Hi all, I haven't been on the DBD forums in a while, but I want to share a concept for a licensed chapter for DBD. I'm not sure if y'all have seen the movie 'X', but it's my new #1 favorite, and with that I'd like to write a little fanmade chapter idea. Decided to include Pearl from her own movie to fit DBD. Keep in mind everything is hypothetical! I would just really love to see this collaboration, doubt it will happen though. Here goes my idea:

Chapter: X

Content: New killer, new survivor (with legendary skins), and a new map.

New killer: The Star (Pearl)

In this chapter, young Pearl takes the place of the deranged killer. Boasting a bright red dress accented with streaming mascara, Pearl would yield an ax as her weapon in her default skin. With her power and perks themed around delusion and desire, she hunts down survivors with chaotic prowess built on a fear of failure.

Terror radius: 32 meters
Movement speed: 4.6 m/s

Power: (Very wordy to include specifics)

Making The Best Of What I Have

Start the match with an empty power bar, capacity of 20 charges. Recharges at 0.4c/s. Drains at 1c/s.
For each generator finished, gain an additional 2 charges of capacity.
When the power bar is below 100%, press and hold the power button to activate Lure. When the power bar is at 100%, press and hold the power button to activate Pursue.
Special ability: Lure:
During Lure, The Star’s movement speed is reduced by 10%. While this is active, The Star regains charges 100% (+0.4c/s) faster.
The Star gains the Undetectable status effect.
Switching to and from Lure has a 1 second cooldown, with no slowdown.
The Star cannot attack during Lure.
When the power bar reaches 100%, this ability deactivates.
Special ability: Pursue:
During Pursue, The Star’s movement speed is increased by 7.5%.
The Star’s terror radius is increased by 12 meters.
Upon activating Pursue, any survivor being chased gains the Blindness and Oblivious status effects until Pursue ends, or they lose a health state.
Upon activating Pursue, any survivor being chased is revealed by Killer Instinct and their breathing is 25% louder until Pursue ends, or they lose a health state.
While Pursue is active, The Star breaks pallets and walls 20% faster, and vaults windows 30% faster.
While Pursue is active, the sound of footsteps, grunts of pain, and breathing are focused on. All other environmental sounds are reduced by 50%.
If no successful attacks are made during the first 16 seconds of Pursue, gain an additional 12.5% movement speed increase for the remainder of Pursue.
Successfully hitting a survivor ends Pursue and empties the power bar.

Perks:

You Always Get What You Want:

Envious of those more fortunate, you are enraged by success in others. Even sister-in-laws.

You become Obsessed with one survivor. Whenever the Obsession is healed or unhooked, they become exhausted for 15/20/25 seconds and all other survivors scream, revealing their location for 5 seconds.

Scourge Hook: Know My Name:

Infatuated with the idea of fame, you let the world know of your presence.

At the start of the Trial, 4 random Hooks are changed into Scourge Hooks.

Hooking a survivor on a Scourge Hook reveals your aura for 5/4/3 seconds, and blocks every generator for 8 seconds. Any survivors within 8 meters of a generator have their aura revealed during this time.

Hex: It’ll Be Our Secret

Lunacy and lust dance on a fine line, and you don’t care to cross it. A hex that exploits the pursuit of your obsession.

You become Obsessed with one survivor. When the Obsession goes from healthy to injured by any means, if there is a dull totem remaining, Hex: It’ll Be Our Secret activates and lights it.

While Hex: It’ll Be Our Secret applies the Blindness status effect to all survivors who aren’t your obsession and reduces their healing speed by 36/38/40%. The Obsession’s healing speed is increased by 25% as long as the Hex is active.

New Survivor: Maxine Minx

Something’s different about this one. Maxine is a smart and sneaky survivor who knows how to find her way out of an ill fate. Maxine dons chocolate short-shorts and a tri-color tube top with curls in her default, and offers a set cosmetic bringing her overalls to the table.

(Potential legendary outfits include Bobby-Lynn, Lorraine, and Mitzy.)

Perks:

I Needa Be Famous, Wayne

The last thing you want to be is forgotten. Don’t let your talent go unnoticed.

When you are being chased by the killer, after 10/8/6 seconds, I Needa Be Famous, Wayne activates. While active, all survivors over 24 meters away from you see your aura and gain a 7% haste status. I Needa Be Famous, Wayne deactivates after the chase ends, or another survivor is injured. I Needa Be Famous, Wayne has a 30 second cooldown.

X Factor

Everyone with a pulse will know who you are, you've got that X factor.

After working on a generator for 20/18/16 seconds, you become the Obsession. As long as you are the obsession, working on a generator reveals that generator’s aura to all other survivors and Great Skill Check success zones are increased by 35%.

Boon: It’ll Be Our Secret:

Faced with death, you show no fear. You show nothing at all.

Press and hold the Active Ability button near a Dull or Hex Totem to bless it and create a Boon Totem.

Soft chimes ring out within a radius of 24 meters.

Survivors inside the Boon Totem's range benefit from the following effects:
