New Killer -- The Abomination

MongByeolBuddies

The Abomination

TLDR/Summary: A killer who has a bomb-like attack that damages any survivor close to him when it goes off and who gains super mobility after reloading his power for a brief time to give him map pressure

Height: Tall

Speed: 4.6 mps

Terror Radius: 32 meters

Look: Something along the lines of the Grotesque from Diablo 3. He has a massive right arm with a big meaty claw on the end of it for his basic attack. His left arm looks like a blubbery sack, and has a long needle on the end of it. This arm is filled with Blood Nectar and has a reddish hue. 

Each time The Abomination activates his power, he’ll use a little of the Blood Nectar; this causes his left arm to shrink some and grow whiter. When The Abomination runs out of Blood Nectar, his left arm is shriveled up and pure white.

Power: Blood Burst -- The Abomination injects himself with Blood Nectar. (Click the power button to activate.) The blood nectar takes 2 seconds to take effect during which he slows to 3.6 mps. 

Afterward, he increasingly speeds up over the next four seconds -- 4 mps, 5 mps, 6 mps, 7 mps. At the end of the four seconds, pieces of his flesh, bone, guts and blood burst out from him, damaging any survivor within 5 meters. He has a brief cooldown after the power goes off.

The Abomination has enough Blood Nectar for 5 Blood Bursts by default.

Of note:

* During Blood Burst, the Abomination cannot see scratch marks 

* During Blood Burst, the Abomination cannot do any other action

* His power destroys dropped pallets but can be canceled with a pallet stun.

* His power can hit survivors through windows 

* Survivors can use objects as shields to avoid being hit

* His power can hit multiple survivors; however, 1 survivor can shield another survivor from the Blood Burst

Secondary Power: Blood Extraction -- The Abomination extracts Blood Nectar from a Bloody Canker to refill his power. (Hold the secondary power button for the duration. There are 6 Bloody Cankers located throughout the map by default.) It takes 3 seconds for The Abomination to extract the Blood Nectar. 

Blood Rush -- After Blood Extraction has been completed, for the next 10 seconds The Abomination moves at 8 mps. 

Of note:

*Any action made during this time cancels Blood Rush.

Idea behind killer: I wanted to create a killer that has a way to deal with looping, has map pressure, has counterplay, requires skill and is fun to play. 

Looping -- Blood Burst allows The Abomination to position himself next to a survivor quickly and deal damage. 

Map Pressure -- Blood Rush allows The Abomination to get around the map quickly to protect gens and start the next chase

Counterplay -- The slowed-down speed during the Blood Nectar activation time plus the lack of scratch marks allow survivors to break line of sight and get away from The Abomination. Survivors can also use windows and drop pallets to avoid taking damage. They can also jump in lockers; however, due to the shorter cooldown from Blood Burst than a regular attack, they are likely only delaying getting hit.

Skill -- Killers will have to know when to activate their power and how to track survivors without scratch marks. They’ll also have to know when to refill their Blood Nectar and how to use Blood Rush to apply the most pressure.

Fun -- You get to be a big ugly monster zooming around the map and blowing up survivors! 

Of Concern: The Abomination could be a potential camper as Blood Burst can hit multiple survivors at once. However, he won’t be as good at camping as Leatherface, The Plague with Corrupt Purge and Myers Tier 3 since his power only injures survivors, has a 6 second timer, has a limited number of charges and the unhooking survivor could potentially protect the unhooked survivor from the blast so it should be OK.

Main Thing To Test: The activation time, the initial slowed-down movement speed, the increasing movement speed and the range of Blood Burst will need to be tested to make sure its powerful and effective but not OP.
