New Killer Idea: The Scourged

alexvee333

A killer inspired by the movie, "It Follows."

Description

Benevolent Hunger
A random survivor becomes Idolized at the start of the match if none are; The Scourged takes on that form. Only one survivor may be Idolized at a time, and basic attacks do not make contact with survivors who are not suffering from that status effect.

Hold the Power Button to have The Scourged charge forward and attack with a metallic stake that she manifests in her left hand. Any survivor attacked this way will suffer from the Deep Wound status effect and become Idolized; all other survivors are cleansed, and she takes shape. The stake cannot put injured survivors into the dying state. The Scourged is completely invisible to all survivors who are not Idolized.

Benevolent Hunger comes in 2 stages; the second stage can be reverted to stage 1 when the current Idol is hooked. Upon regressing to stage 1, The Scourged is stunned and undergoes transmogrification for 3 seconds; the Idol moves.

Survivors may transfer your Idolization to another survivor, removing all status effects it entails; this is done through cleansing a Voodoo Shrine. If the survivor does, the Idol moves. Once a shrine is cleansed, it is destroyed.

Stage 1:
When a survivor is the Idol for longer than 1 second, that survivor becomes hindered until they are downed; an additional 1% is added to the hindered effect for every second the Idolization persists for a maximum of 6%. Hindering also affects actions done by the Idolized survivor. If the Idolization lasts for 30 seconds, The Scourged progresses to stage 2. This time limit is cut into a 3rd if you are in a chase with the Idolized survivor.

Stage 2:
Severely increased terror radius to 60m.

The Idolized survivor becomes blinded and oblivious, and after 15 seconds they become exposed.
