i made this chapter as i thought lethal company would fit for dead by daylight, another stealth killer but it should be unique enough

image.png image.png image.png image.png

An abandoned moon with utilitarian factories and a desert-like surface.

Landmarks

  • Factory

The insides of the factory are dull and dim, the frigid air couldn’t distract anyone of the beasts deep into its guts.

Map Offering: V-Type Engine

A heavy engine requiring two hands to carry it, it sells for a reasonable price.

The Bracken, a stealthy apex predator would live in the out of place rooms with wood paneling and carpet deep into the factories, killing the never-ending amount of employees that the company would send to die, until one day. Once he was lurking in a dark hallway, then the pipes burst open, it wasn't steam, it was a pitch black fog, it expanded so quickly the Bracken couldn't see anything anymore, and once the fog opened up it saw new opportunities.

Perk: Hex: Invasive Presence

You thrive in environments where your presence is felt before you are seen.

If there is at least one dull Totem remaining in the Trial Grounds, Hex: Invasive Presence activates on a random Totem every time a survivor gets hooked for the first time:

  • 2 Tokens: The aura of the cursed survivor is revealed every time they get within a 8 meter radius of a Totem or a Chest.
  • 3 Tokens: The aura of the cursed survivor is revealed every time they get within a 22 meter radius of an Exit Gate.
  • 4 Tokens: The aura of the cursed survivor is revealed every time they enter the Basement.
  • 5 Tokens: The aura of the cursed survivor is revealed every time they get within a 10 meter radius of a survivor.
  • This effect persists until the Hex Totem is cleansed.
  • Only the cursed survivor can cleanse the totem.
