Idea for Sadako

What if we go with the idea people have thrown around about walking through pallets while demanifested?

I was thinking she could be able to break pallets by manifesting on top of them, making predropping or staying near dropped pallets dangerous against her, and perhaps nearby Survivors to this interaction gain a stack of condemn if they aren't holding a tape. I think it's reminiscent of the whole Wraith staring contest, where you're standing at a pallet by a cloaked Wraith and seeing who commits first (drop pallet/fully uncloak). In this case, either the Sadako manifests too early and gets stunned, or they fake the manifest and dodge the pallet stun, or the Survivor gets greedy and gets hit. Or of course, both sides get stuck in an infinite staring contest, with Sadako constantly feathering her manifest bar.

I think it's just a fun little interaction. Sadako would probably have to be standing in the pallet already to demanifest and break it though, as to not just 99% a manifest while walking toward the pallet. So maybe, while channeling her manifest, she can't pass through pallets unless she cancels and stays demanifested. I was thinking of it being fast enough that it's like Demo shredding or Nemmy whipping a pallet to save time over breaking it normally, but not so fast that pallets would be useless against her the way they are with Nurse.

Also, I think lose the slowdown she gets while manifesting; her mindgames while demanifested are some of the more unique things about her kit, so it'd be nice to employ that while also making use out the whole unstunnable effect in chase effectively.
