Killer Concept: The Scarecrow
Backstory: THE SCARECROW, or Arthur Zielinski, was a gardener who grew up learning how to grow crops from his father, and grow flowers from his mother. But, bullies would often tie him up on posts and stuff hay in his clothes yelling "Scaredy Cat Scarecrow" at him. He studied Horticulture, but he wanted to leave college with a degree in Psychology. But years of torment and his parents constants arguments eventually drove him mad, leading him to murder his parents and his bullies, using a scythe as his weapon, but would use a sickle as well. He studied the fears of victims he would kidnap and mentally torture. He eventually created a device that would slowly cause anxiety, dread, and paranoia into the minds of the victims. While working one night on his device, he noticed a strange, almost living black fog, and almost instantly was consumed, and he could sense fear within this strange place, and his only goal was to make it worse.
Power: Frightening Experiments
At the start of the trial, survivors have a Fear Tracker attached to them, and you gain 4 tokens. Fear Trackers will gain progress the longer survivors are in your Terror Radius but not in a chase. When it reaches full progress, the survivor will scream and reveal their location and suffer from the Paranoid status effect for 45 seconds, then the meter restarts progress.
Special Status Effect: Paranoid
The Paranoid status effect causes survivors to constantly hear a faint terror radius, as if the killer were nearby.
Special Item: Disarming Kit
4 disarming kits will spawn in the trial, allowing survivors to remove Fear Trackers.
Special Attack: Scythe Swing
Hold the Active Ability Button to charge Scythe Swing, then press the Attack Button to use Scythe Swing, spinning for 4 seconds, hitting and survivor within 6 meters of you for one health state.
Special Interaction: Place Tracker
While a survivor is in the dying state, press the Active Ability Button 2 to place a Fear Tracker and consume a token.

Interesting concept, although the killer's power seems quite complex (fitting most of the current killers). What's also quite interesting is that I wanted to make a gardener killer too, although I had a different Idea. I really like Out From The Shadows and Shared Pain.

He has a bit of tracking, a special attack, and kinda like pig he places them on survivors, the Paranoid state might be a bit too much, seeing as it's kinda similar to madness, but I see how it can seem complex compared to recent killers, but if someone were to play with the power it would seem way simpler 😅 (and thank you, I tried to make a fun killer with interesting perks)
