I got bored, decided to make a chapter and went way too far with it. Enjoy. [Long!]
Killer: The Warden
A killer who once worked as a prison guard in one of the most highest rated prisons when it came to violence. Constant riots, violent inmates, and poor working conditions turned The Warden from a run of the mill guard into one of the most brutal guards at the prison, to the point even the other guards tended to stay away from him.
During a night patrol, The Warden noticed three of the prisoners cells were open, the three belonging to the biggest trouble makers in the prison. Putting the prison on lockdown via a command over the radio, he searched for the men until he found them, having broken into a room under their cells, and cutting through the bars on a window. Without a sound he creeped through the shadows, until he was next to the lookout, before bringing his baton down over the inmates head, knocking them out. The sound alerted the other two, who panickly lept out the now open window, running into the foggy yard outside. With a scream and a snap, a trap went off under one of the running prisoners are The Warden went through the window. With one immobilized, he chased the other prisoner into the dark fog waiting outside. As the fog thickened, he'd lose sight of the prisoner, but followed the sounds he heard, bushes rustling, and sticks being stepped on/
At the next morning's roll call, he was absent, as well as one of the prisoners from last night. Rumors spread about what happened to him that night, as, to many, he seemed to have vanished into thin air and the fog. After all, there wasn't really any way to leave the prison from the yard he had been in.
Ability: Lockdown
An ability designed to maintain control of a trial. Gives the ability to trap generators, chests, the exit gates, and totems, locking the generator down and forcing survivors to remove the lock first before being able to interact with the locked item. While locked, a generators regression is not stopped, but it cannot have further regression applied (Such as from perks, or kicking it after a lock), and requires the lock to be broken before survivors can stop the regression. While removing a lock, the survivor becomes oblivious. The warden will not be alerted to protected totems being unlocked. Breaking a lock takes 5 seconds.
If any other perk or action causes the item to be blocked by the entity, the lock breaks. Only 1 of each kind of item can be locked at once.
Special Trap: Leg trap
A trap meant to hold attempted escapees in place, this one has been tampered with.
Traps can be placed around the map, with a max of 4. These traps can be deployed at any time, but must be manually recollected, or have been activated and used, to be recycled.Traps are painted a dark color.
Upon stepping in a trap, the survivor will let out a scream, but aren't revealed to the killer. They are unable to free themselves, and require either another survivor freeing them to escape, or waiting 20 seconds. Upon reaching 20 seconds, the trap will break, causing the survivor to scream again, revealing their location, and taking damage. The trap returns to the warden's inventory
Traps within 20m of the Warden will deactivate until he leaves the area.

----------------------
Survivor: Orson Taylor
A prisoner who did nothing that was deserving to be locked in this place. That's how many would describe Orson anyway.
He had been a low end crook. Break into a few homes, steal some stuff, but he never harmed anyone. He didn't want to hurt people, after all what reason was there to? But being in the wrong place and the wrong time isn't a valid defense, and breaking into a home with a murdered person, then being caught red handed as the police turned up, was not a good look in front of the jury. Slapped with a charge for murder he didn't commit, he was sentenced to life in prison.
He didn't really fit in with anyone around him there, and was often pushed around, until eventually 2 people saw his worth, Carter Brenton and Blaine Riley, two convicts much in the same boat, both convicted by a corrupt jury. Together, they schemed, managing to obtain floor plans of the prison, and some basic tools they could use for their escape. Orson's ability to smuggle items pass guards and keep them distracted earned him the nickname weasel to those who knew him.
One night, their plan went into action. Using tools Blaine had managed to make out of sight of the guards, they broke open the locks to their cell doors, and all head over to Orson's cell room, where hidden under the bed was a hole, leading into an unused room below. Together, they went through, and started working on the bars of the window down there when the alarm went off. Orson and Blaine hurridly continued work on the window as Carter kept watch.
That was until they heard the body of Carter fall to the ground, and seeing the brutal guard who had made their lives torturous here behind them.
Panicked, Blaine managed to pry off the weakened bars, and he and Orson went through the window, the guard closely behind. A loud snap echoed around as Blaine's leg was caught in one of those traps the brutal guard had been making. Knowing stopping meant they'd both get caught, and that him fleeing might be distraction enough for Blaine to free himself, Orson kept running, the guard close behind, as a dense fog swirled around them.
He slowed, the sound of footsteps pounding behind him gone. In his panicked state he hadn't even realized that the distance he ran for was impossible, there was meant to be an opposing wall...
In the distance he saw an orangeflickering light. Upon approach, he saw the camp fire. Not knowing who lit it he waited before approaching, and his exhaustion quickly causing him to fall asleep.
Little did he realize this would simply be another prison, one he couldn't leave no matter how hard he tried.
Perks:
Lookout
You look out for your team during the most crucial operations.
While near survivors repairing a generator, but not repairing it yourself, gain the ability to see the killer's aura within a 24/32/40m radius after 3 seconds. This ability is shared to those on the generator.
This perk will not activate while afflicted with blindness.
"Someone's gotta watch out for the guards, you know what they do to breakouts!" -Carter Brenton
Crafty
Your resourcefulness allows you to see solutions where others can't.
After repairing a generator for 45 seconds this perk activates. Press [Key] to reinforce the generator. When the generator begins regressing, any instant regression is reduced by 20%, and the generator will regress 20/30/40% slower. The reinforcement is lost afterwards, or after 30 seconds. Any further damage will not be reduced.
"Hey, pass me that wrench, I think I can do something here." -Blaine Riley

"If he wants a chase I'll bloody give him one!" -Orson "Weasel" Taylor

I give you props in the details and effort you put in. Very original perks. Nice work!

Lookout seems kind of strong a a perk. Then again, you're actively doing nothing, so it's a good trade off I'd say.
