Killer Idea: The Headless Horseman
So much potential for this one. You could do a whole Sleepy Hollow chapter with Ichabod Crane as a Survivor and obviously, The Headless Horseman would be the killer. DUH... BUT he MUST ride his black horse (Daredevil) while chasing survivors...He could even do his classic evil and diabolical laugh and it could echo through the map like The Oni's scream. That would legit be terrifying...
I'm thinking his weapon should be a medieval Axe (Death's Axe). His Mori could be to chop survivors heads and then he laughs while holding the head of the survivor up in the air, as his horse starts rearing meanacingly, kicking the air with his front legs... Maybe he could temporarily put on the head of the survivor he Moried until he finds his own head. Like the head of Dwight dripping blood for example...
His power should be tied to his story. I think his head should spawn somewhere random on the map. Like Pin-Head's box. He could curse survivors with "Revenge Curse" which would be a gradual speed slowdown on all survivors until one of the survivors finds the Head...
And when a survivor finds the Head and picks it up, The Headless Horseman can see the survivor's aura and they become his obsession.
But the survivor with the Head must find *The Headless Horseman's Grave* (the dark dead tree, from the movie) and place the Head in it in order to reset the "Revenge Curse" speed slowdown and to make the Head respawn somewhere new to start a new "Revenge Curse" from zero. The survivor must do this BEFORE The Headless Horseman finds him...
If The Headless Horseman finds his Head and his Obsession before the Head is buried in "The Grave", then him and his Horse become A LOT faster…
Think of it like Pin-Head's Lament Configuration power. The Box or Head is important to both the Survivors AND the Killer. So both seek to find it and gain something out of it.
