New Killer & Map Idea
“The Draugr” – The Undying Fury
Overview
“From the icy depths of Helheim, he rose not for vengeance — but to feed the cold fire of honor betrayed.”
The Draugr is a mythologically inspired killer drawn from Norse legend — an undead Viking revenant fueled by fury, betrayal, and an unholy pact with The Entity. He brings relentless aggression, tactical mobility, and atmospheric terror to the fog.
Killer Name: The Draugr
Real Name: Erik Ulfrsson
Realm: The Barrow of Shadows
Lore (Short Form)
Erik Ulfrsson was a terror on the sea — a Viking raider of unmatched strength and bloodlust. But it was not an enemy who felled him — it was betrayal, a blade in the back from his closest friend. Cast into Helheim, he sought Hel herself for vengeance. Instead, he found something far darker. The Entity answered. It offered him unending wrath — and a chance to walk the world once more.
Now, Erik is neither dead nor alive. He is Draugr — an immortal warrior bound to the hunt.
Power: Undying Fury
The Draugr’s rage transcends death. He channels ancient fury to become faster, more ferocious, and impossible to escape.
Core Mechanics:
- Fury Meter: Charging over time and through successful hits, like Oni or Nemesis.
- Fury State (Undying Fury): When fully charged, The Draugr gains:
- 10% movement speed boost
- Reduced cooldown on missed basic attacks
- “Grave Chill”: Survivors hit during this state leave spectral tracks and cough audibly for 10 seconds.
Special Ability: Barrow Call
- The Draugr can vanish into a spectral void and emerge from a chosen locker, bursting out with a roar that applies Grave Chill to all Survivors within a small radius.
- Cooldown: 30 seconds
Weapon: Wyrmbite Axe — an iron-bearded axe imbued with death’s frost. Its blade hums with a cursed resonance

Mori Animation
The ground cracks as a dead hand grabs the Survivor’s ankle. The Draugr emerges from black mist, bellows:
“Fyrir blóð, fyrir æru, skal þú falla!”(“For blood, for honor, you shall fall!”)
He cleaves the Survivor down in one massive blow, kneels, and whispers:
“Hel kallar…”(“Hel calls…”)
The mist swallows the body whole.
Realm: The Barrow of Shadows
A frozen burial mound half-buried in snow and death. Jagged stones, flickering ghost braziers, and long-forgotten weapons litter the ice.
Hook designs are made of rune-carved driftwood bound with sinew.
