Killerr Power Idea
Would that be a concept which people would enjoy?
The Cursed can create fake generators which survivors can repair. Repairing more than 20% of the generator makes the generator disappear and gives the survivors the cursed effect which reveals their aura and gives the killer the killer instinct. Then there is a short time window where the killer can slowly manifest upon the survivor. While manifesting the killer can still interact with everything and even cancel the manifestation. Fully manifested, this survivor suffers from the cursed effect and cannot be removed by itself.
While the killer is slowly manifesting upon a survivor the survivor can either offer his soul to an altar and it removes a health state, temporally gives them the broken status affect. Also removing the cursed status effect.
Has the killer already manifested to a survivor and he suffers from the cursed status effect. A different survivor who is not cursed can collect blood samples of the cursed survivor and bring it to the altar and it removes the curse from the survivor who is cursed. Doing so, the survivor who brought the blood samples to the altar cannot be cursed for a short time.
SPECIAL EFFECT: CURSED
Repairing a generator for more than 20% this survivor suffers from the “cursed” effect which slowly goes away. While they are cursed The Cursed can manifest near them. After the killer has fully manifested onto a survivor, this suffers from “cursed” permanently.
The Cursed can also inflict this status effect by grabbing them and completing this interaction. This interaction can be stopped by a survivor. Doing so curses the rescuer but stuns the killer.
While suffering from “cursed” The Cursed is able to injure them with his secondary power.
SECONDARY POWER: SCREAM OF THE SOULS
The Cursed can perform a scream which gets wider and further the more survivors have used the altars. The SCREAM OF THE SOULS creates a shockwave which goes through walls and injures cursed survivors in a short distance, giving them the deafened status effect.
SPECIAL OBJECT: ALTAR
Using the altar by a survivor removes the cursed effect from you or other survivors. Doing so gives the killer a wider and further SCREAM OF THE SOULS. Performing SCREAM OF THE SOULS shortens and less widens the effect until they remove the curse again.

Fake gens - way too easy too identify, and being there are eight gens the chance a survivor even uses a fake gen is pretty low.
Scream of Souls - an area blast that goes through walls doesn't seem very fun. The Unknown has ways to counterplay around it, this just seems like you'd be stuck.
Altar - too many steps. One survivor interacting with another to then get an object breaks some of the game concepts.

You're setting up a version of the plague that's generally weaker and more complicated. The idea of trapping gens has potential.

In this case the killer has 5 gens which are fake. You cannot see the difference as a survivor. Which i agree with you is that hes complicated to play against.
The concept with an altar is more like "I help myself in a short time or somebody else helps me and gets a "boost", since I cant help myself since hes on my ass" Theres no additional item included.
The scream would vary on the cures from the curses so survivors can decurse them but it makes him stronger but for his scream to work, they would have to be cursed.
You can imagine his scream like a shockwave. it injures you if theres nothing inbetween you and the killer…if so theres a wall in between you then it would deafen you - not injure you.
Thanks for your feedback! I just wanted to get my creativity out.0
