Killer idea: The witch
Name: Dana
Lore: "As the fire consumed her a voice arose and promised vengeance."
Height: Small
Speed: 4.6
Terror radius: 32m
Weapon: Right hand, ritualistic dagger.
Map: American colony (few wood houses, a big central house, lots of corn fields and the burnt remains of a woman attached to a tree half turned to ash)
------------------------------------------------
Powers;
1- Cold flame: The witch can creat fiery traps. Once triggered they burn survivors causing them to be blind for 3s, to scream revealing their locations and exhaustion for 10s. Additionally they will emit smoke for 20s.
2- Inferno: The witch can lauch a fireball that can injure survivors. Additionally, she can charge it to instead creat an AoE on impact that cause survivors to be blinded for 3s and to be exhausted for 10s but deal no damage.
Perks;
1- Revenge: If a survivor escape the killer during a chase 3/2/1 times. The next time they enter his/her terror radius the survivor will scream sending out an audio and visual notification and be blinded for 1s/2s/3s.
2- Friend with the beasts: If a survivor has been hiding within the killer terror radius for 20s/15s/10s crows will start flying above their head and send notifications for 3s/4s/5s.
3- Blinding flame: Although the killer is blinded 5%/10%/15% faster, the survivor also get blinded for the entire duration.
------------------------------------------------
Mechanics;
1- Traps: A reskin of the Hag's traps. In the shape of a pentagram, leaving a small and faint smoke trail.
2-Fireballs: reskin/rework of the Huntress hatchets. Basically, The witch would be allowed to throw:
4 small fireballs, or
3 small fireballs and one big fireball, or
2 big fireballs.
It would work on a ressource gauge like Freddy teleportation.

Neat idea, though maybe make the fireball do the damage. The traps can blind and maybe mess with survivor's buffs and/or perks.

I made a few changes.

Interesting changes, though maybe remove the middle part from the mechanics. Give her a base of 4 total fireballs, but she can use two charges for the AoE.

Maybe I explained it poorly but that's already how it works.
You have a total of 4 small fire balls.

I'd like her to look like a traditional Halloween witch, with a proper witch hat and maybe a broomstick.
And to cackle like my mother in law.

Lol funny but the idea would be more of a "Salem witch" type of character.
She'd look like those woman with a white hat on their head. Puritains ? Idk the english word. XD

Oh, hell yes. A pale, glowing eyed little girl, an innocent smile on her face. Unless she's attacking, she has her hands clasped in front of her, like a polite young lady should...
And yes, they were called Puritans

I just realized this was a Bewitched reference...
"That's offensive ! Witches have feelings too!"

Yes !

And even better, she even hums a creepy little tune or something as she wanders around the map!

Would definetly be cool but idk if it would cost too much money to do.
0 -
Not too much, really. Most of the bones for something like this is in the game, it just needs some different looks and effects. That's probably not too difficult to do, so that shouldn't bee to pricey... And there isn't any licensing for the Puritan image, so no need to buy permission or anything!

I made a few modifications again :p
