New survivor idea for: The Lucid
Jessica
Cannes, France.
"I always had trouble sleeping."
Since a young age Jessica always woke up in strange places: closets, the middle of the road, her garden and even the freezer once!
Although her sleepwalking was a bit hard to deal with, it was nothing compared to the times she couldn't sleep.
For hours she'd be on her bed imagining thousands of stories and watching them unfold in her mind. Romance, action, fantastic and even horror ! Jessica loved them all. That's when she first heard it.
A voice or rather sound maybe ? Something seemed really close, almost breathing down her neck!
That's when Jessica noticed the weird shadow standing in the corner of her bedroom. It looked like the shape of a man! She quickly opened the lights but as soon as she did, it vanished. At first she was scared.
When she told her parents, they simply replied it must've been "just a nightmare".
After awhile, it came back and although she was scared. It never harmed her, only watched her sleep.
After sometimes, Jessica tried engaging conversation.
Even though the entity never said a word, she could somehow feel its interest. They became closer and she even considered the ghost her friend.
She would talk with it for hours at night, telling it all about her day at school or boys. She also tried a few times to get close to her Friend but it would vanish before she could get close.
The voice always manifested in the same corner of Jessica's small room and would stand looking towards her like the shadow of a scarecrow. Although it sometimes look scary and even threatening, she never felt any real danger.
One day whilst waiting for her friend, Jessica wondered again: what does it look like ? Does it smell ? Is it a she or a he ? When her guest arrived instead of engaging conversation she stood Up.
The shadow didn't move but the room felt uneasy.
She took a step closer, the air got colder.
The shadow didn't move but it seemed to grow even taller.
As she was close enough to smell her Friend shs realized it STANK! Although really close, she was still unable to see any of its features. Her curiousity couldn't be contained, she had to know.
As Jessica pinched her nose and extended her arm to touch the entity's face. Black tendril wrapped around her hand and pulled her close enough to see it.
Her friend was nothing more than a repungnant black and bloody blob with tendrils going all around her room reaching to her bed! She started screaming.
As Jessica awoke in panic, she saw that her friend was in the corner as usual, completly motionless. Calming down a bit she turned the lights on and went back to sleep a bit shook.
Next time Jessica awoke, she was beside a campfire. Strange she was living in the city, she couldn't have sleepwalk to the forest... Suddently she noticed she wasn't alone. Her friend was there...
Now she could feel the danger, the deviousness and the malice within that being! No it's probably "just a nightmare" !
*News report*
"Apparently the young teen was known for sleepwalking at night.
Although, Jessica's home was downtown we can see her on street cameras; walking to the edge of town and towards the woods, eyes closed. How she made it so far and quickly by just walking is still unknown.
Her parents and the rescue teams are still looking for her and their hopes are high has no body was found. Only this cryptic message.
It reads; It wants to play.
Was the young girl being followed and was kidnapped ? Is it all an hoax ? Only time will tell."
Perks:
1- Friend of the entity: the entity has a soft spot for you and will allow you to see the killer's aura for 3s/4s/5s when you unhook a survivor. If the killer has an aura reading perk it will also delay detection for 5s/6s/7s.
2- Sleepwalking: you are able to teleport 5m/10m/15m forward, even through objects. This cannot be used during a chase and has a cooldown of 120s/80s/60s.
3- Insomniac: the survivor is always on alert. When exposed, falling asleep or transitionning to another dream, the survivor gets an immunity to damage for 2s/3s/4s. It cause the exhaustion status for 50s/40s/30s if any damage is blocked.
