New Killer Idea - The Pharaoh
Benedict Lore | Why did they stop doing this?
"Another fiend has joined in the eternal hunt that is this waking nightmare. A shambling corpse of ragged bandages and shrieking insects. It brings with it a smell most ancient and a seemingly endless wave of sand. Although appearing ordinary, avoid the sand at all costs! I have seen too many fall victim to it's innocuous appearance, only to swallowed whole as a decomposing hand pulls them beneath the surface and swiftly deposits them on one of the accursed hooks. The yellow grains seems to pour from every nook and cranny. But on occasion I have managed to find its source and plug it with debris, if only for a time. I use these temporary moments to hasten my escape, now with less threat from the predatory carcass that yet still hounds me. I hope you may do the same."
Movement Speed - 110% | 4.4 m/s
Terror Radius - 32 meters | Does not intensify when nearing a survivor
Height - Average
Description - A petrified corpse wrapped in filthy bandages, leaking sand. Beneath the skin, particular around the face, lie dozens of tiny scarab beetles that softly chatter, and get more aggressive when in a chase. Faded gold jewellery pieces can just be seen around the wrist and neck. Upon the head is a ruined crown of the Egyptian era. It the right hand is a crook that is used as a weapon.
Power - Sands of Time
While standing on Sand, you receive a 7% haste boost and have ALL of your action speeds increased by 20%. Survivors standing on Sand have their vaulting speed reduced by 15%.
SPECIAL ABILITY: SINKHOLES
Press and hold the active ability button to create a Sinkhole. Sinkholes will passively produce Sand within a 45 meter radius. Sinkholes can be blocked by survivors for 60 seconds, after which they will reopen. Placing more than 3 Sinkholes will remove the last one placed and all Sand produced by the removed Sinkhole.
SPECIAL ATTACK: SANDTRAP
Press and hold the active ability button while standing on Sand to dive beneath the surface.
While diving you lose your red stain and can go under dropped pallets. Successfully attacking an injured survivor while diving will pull them beneath the surface and onto your shoulder. Pulled survivors can be quickly put onto hooks near Sand. Leaving Sand, getting stunned, or missing an attack will return you to the surface.

I absolutely love a chapter based on ancient Egypt and a pharaoh/mummy killer. Soo much potential with ancient Egyptian culture, character design and especially map design. I like the abilities you made. I really hope the devs make a mummy/ ancient Egypt chapter one day.

I concur. There's loads of inspiration to draw from and if they end up adding an Egyptian themed killer I hope they get the chase music down. I can easily imagine one that would go great with with the Pharoah, as he approaches you from the sand.

I would love to see the memento Mori for this killer. I imagine the beetle death scene from "The Mummy".

It would prefer them dying by the sand. It would happen like this:
Pharaoh leans over downed survivor as a sinkhole is formed beneath the survivor's feet
Survivor starts to sink and panics, grabbing onto the Pharaoh's legs
Pharaoh learns down and opens his mouth, as dozens of scarab beetles fly out from his mouth and eyes
The survivor lets got in an attempt to swat the beetles and then has their torso swallowed by the earth
The survivor clutches the ground as their head is swallowed, screaming all the while, until they are completely absorbed into the earth

THAT WOULD BE SO COOL
I wish devs would allow kills that cause body dismemberment or the body would disappear.
