Survivor Concept (Controversial Trigger Warning)

Holocaust Survivor

Anne

Perks:

• Hiding in plain sight - Anne's aura becomes undetectable when hiding in lockers. This trumps other perks. Less time is needed to spawn crows while idle.
• Dear Diary - Anne keeps a record of everything that happens to her and those around her. Anne can log her events by hiding in a locker and using the secondary action button. This allows her to remember locations around the map. When interacting with an object that object will be recorded into Anne's memory for her diary. Anne's memory is limited though and as such she can only remember the last 1/2/3 interactions she's had. Becoming chased causes Anne to forget earlier interactions. Other survivors can hide in the most recently hidden in locker that Anne has emerged from to read her diary. Reading the diary will reveal auras of intractable items around the playing zone that have been recorded in Anne's Diary. The state of the interactable (chests, generators, totems, hooks, etc.) will be displayed as they were when Anne stopped interacting. Destroyed totems will be shown as destroyed and open chests will be displayed as opened only if Anne finished the interaction herself or "examined" the interaction afterwards. Allows the ability to examine interactive items that have been completed.
• Book Smart - Cannot be the obsession. vaulting, running, hiding, wiggling, unhooking, escaping, pallet dropping, and crawling speeds are reduced by 4/3/2%. bleed out, repair, cleanse, heal, search and unlock are 1/2/3% faster. Enters injured state when falling from drops. Enters dying state if falling while injured.

I thought of this after seeing something someone posted about wanting a war veteran survivor. for some reason it made me imagine war victims as a survivor since in most cases the survivors in dead by daylight are people who've come to a point in their life where they can't find anything to be hopeful for and regret their own existence. From there my train of thought went to POWs, Bill from left 4 dead, and the huntress. When i thought of the huntress I went and looked at her backstory. Her name was "anna" and the story of what appears to be german and russian war. This made me think of Anne Frank from the holocaust and that sparked the idea that if Anne hadn't been found and put into a camp and instead when the soldiers entered her secret location they found an empty room she could in theory have been "saved/captured" by the entity.

regardless this isn't meant to be a joke or insult in any way and I actually like the perks I've created for her and have considered other perks while creating these. No mither and the weakened state a person gets from going so long without nutrition were the inspiration for the "book smart" perk. Also, There's no reason this has to be Anne Frank as there are plenty of people that keep a diary and 6 million jewish people were killed. Hiding in plain sight would be fun for those that want to use the bash ability jane gave us, but dont want to deal with being spotted by legion.

my only complaint is that my perks are a bit wordier than i would have liked.
