The Siren

---------------------

Movement Speed: (Hunting Mode - 115%, Wailing Mode - 110%)

Terror Radious: 36m during Hunting Mode, 28 during Wailing Mode)

- The Siren's Song

WAIL MODE - Hold power activate button for 3 seconds to enter the WAIL mode. Click the power button to unleash a map wide screech. Any survivors within your terror radious become deafened (for 10 seconds) and oblivious (for 8 seconds) All survivors outside of your terror radious receive a slowdown of 25% to all actions for 4 seconds. Screech has a base cooldown of 35 seconds.


HUNTING MODE - You start the trail in this mode and may revert back whenever you hold the power buttom during WAIL mode. During this mode you may attack any survivors you meet during your hunt. Blood is 15% easier to see during this mode.


Perks:

Pirate's Blunder: All chests on the map become trapped. Anytime a survivor interacts with a chest they have a 100% chance of receiving a common item. After finishing the search, their aura is revealed for 3/6/9 seconds. (THINKING ABOUT CHANGING THIS PERK)


Siren's Call: When reapiring a generator under 15/25/35%, survivors recieve the OBLIVIOUS status effect. After getting off the generator, the OBLIVIOUS effect lasts 2/3/4 seconds. If more than 3/2/1 survivor(s) is working on a generator, the OBLIVIOUS effect lasts 2/4/6 seconds longer.


Ocean's Current: After dropping a pallet, the survior who dropped it will recieve the HINDERED effect for 1/2/3 seconds and have their aura shown for 3/4/5 seconds. (I hate this perk but I couldn't think of anything else...) 

[The idea behind each perk]

Perk 1: I wanted it to be something to do with how sirens can lure pirates and other sea goers in with the false promise of treasure.

Perk 2: In stories, when a siren sings its song the listener can't focus on anything else. I wanted to apply that to generators.

Perk 3: The ocean is a dangerous thing and can slowdown someone from their task, I wanted to convey that.


I would like to hear constructive criticism. Not just "This sucks". Tell me why. Thank you!
