Background:
Zach was involved in WWI when he was at the western front during the time of his death. He was very a smart individual and could handle most situations with ease but one day he went berserk.

The turret will remain in the selected location for 1 minute or until the turret uses all 5 bullets of it's ammo. Survivors that are hit by the turret will suffer a 60 second bleed out timer and every bullet after will keep decreasing the bleed out timer by 15 seconds.

-Great skill checks have no regression penalty.
"Are you ready for war?"
Chaos Wonders:

Name: Roger Bolts
Sex: Male
Ethnicity: American
Age: 20
Height: 5 ft, 8 in
Quote: "All I seen was the evil in his eyes and it dragged me in to a whole new world."
Background:
Roger Bolts is a American solider who was in WWI at the western front, unlike other soldiers who attempted to cross no man's land and gave their precious life's to the axis powers. He had a different idea to keep his allied forces one step ahead of the war, which was his intelligence! He knew that the enemy must be thinking exactly what he's thinking, which was to ambush the other side without any notice but he didn't know when they would attempted such action. Eventually Roger decided to send soldiers to the backline as a safety precaution and warn the allied powers for any attacks or unusual activities. Roger was the leader of the safety group and was on guard ready for any threat to arise. 7 days later, men were spotted and shots were fired between both the attacking group and defending group. Roger was having a hard time defending until he seen why the attackers were so strong. Covered in blood and guts was Zach Darwin, he was on a killing spree. Roger had only one choice, kill Zach before he does anymore damage to his defense group. So Roger aimed, took a deep breath, and fired... The body fell to the floor with blood splashing around the falling body. Roger had won the ambush and stopped Zach's army of troops but something stood out to Roger. Zach's eyes were purely black and this caused Roger vision to slowly go black when looking at Zach. Roger didn't know what was going on until he opened his eyes beside a campfire.
Perks:
Death Dash: You don't want to the first one to suffer. When taking damage from the killer, you'll continue to keep the speed bonus from the attack for a additional 1/2/3 seconds.
"I just experienced what it's like to look at death in the eyes!"
Faith: The pure heart inside you makes the Enity want to give you an extra life force but only at a cost. When unhooking an ally, gain a additional 20 more seconds to your second phase of sacrifice up to a maximum of 20/40/60 additional seconds. Increase your chances of becoming the killer's obsession.
"Don't take me yet!"
Last Wish: You want the best for your friends when you pass away. For the next 2/3/4 minutes after your eliminated from the trial any damage that would put any survivor into dying state will instead trigger a 60 second bleed out timer.
"Hopefully something will watch over us."

To decide, whether a killer is good or not, there is one central question to answer.
Does the power help in a chase?
In this case, the answer would be no. However, the power is based around finding and hurting the survivors without doing it yourself. So you could use one turret to monitor a specific area while hunting another survivor. That seems to be very strong. And with the addons, it seems to be even stronger and maybe too strong, because the better addons don't seem to have a downside to them.
Questions about Turrets
- I don't understand the way the bleedout timer works. If a survivor is hit by a bullet, will he be injured directly or will he enter the injured state after the timer has ended?
- Will a turret see survivors who are hiding in grass?
- What happens if you mine the exit gates with the turrets?
- Can Survivors sabotage the turrets?
Suggestions
Some addons, especially the Sniper Turret, seem to be too strong. It increases it's range and inflicts the dying state. This one should also have a downside. Maybe the increased range should be completely removed and maybe an additional penalty e.g. a delayed shot.
I could go on forever, but I want to keep this short. What do you think about the idea that Last Wish should have a similar length as borrowed time? So for example a 25 second bleed out timer instead of a 60 second one.

@ZarStocher A: When a survivor is hit by a bullet, the survivor will enter a 60 second bleed out timer. If the bleed out timer expires, the survivor will lose one health state and the bleed out timer will disappear.
Q: Will a turret see survivors who are hiding in grass?
@ZarStocher A: If the survivor is in LOS of the turret then yes but as a reminder, the turret only last for 1 minute or until the turret has used all ammunition. Zach only has 3 turrets without any addons so once all the turrets are gone, he's just a m1 killer, his turrets are his backbone. Once they're all gone, the game will become much easier for the survivor's.
Q: What happens if you mine the exit gates with the turrets?
@ZarStocher A: The turret will disappear from the trial when the 1 minute activation timer expires or when all of the turret's ammunition is used. Using more than 1 turret at an exit gate is inefficient for a killer because Zach would've been unable to use any in the early-mid game due to his 3 turret limit.
Q: Can Survivors sabotage the turrets?
@ZarStocher A: No, even if there was such an option, the survivor would've been seen and take heavy damage from the turret.
Concerns: Some addons, especially the Sniper Turret, seem to be too strong. It increases it's range and inflicts the dying state.
Sniper Turret (Ultra Rare): Increases the range of the turret by 12m, reduces the turret ammo capacity to 1, and will now inflict the dying status on any survivor. (If the survivor is in dying state and the turret has the "Tampered Turret" addon. The turret will decrease the survivor's bleed out timer by 25 seconds while in dying state.)
@ZarStocher Remember that the turret has 1 bullet and a 1 minute activation timer and that's it. Once that bullet is used, done, turret has done it's job by punishing the survivor for entering the LOS area. Any addon that would increase the ammunition would be considered useless because the ammunition would be reduced to 1, nothing can change the ammunition for the sniper turret or that would be considered OP. Delayed shot, I've considered this but if the survivor walks in the LOS area of the sniper turret, the survivor has likely not seen the turret which adding delay shot would just slow the inevitable. I wanted fun addons for Zach while not making them powerful with other strong addons if you see where I'm going with this.
Concerns: That seems to be very strong. And with the addons, it seems to be even stronger and maybe too strong, because the better addons don't seem to have a downside to them.
@ZarStocher I wanted the stronger addons to feel strong and not just a joke. Some killer's have weak Very Rare and Ultra Rare addons, such as the pig, I could argue the nurse, but I didn't want Zach to have lame Very Rare and Ultra Rare addons so I wanted them to be something as survivor that you would fear. It's like a EWIII Myers with a tombstone, you'll never know and it adds that scare factor which you don't see much of. To balance his very strong addons, I made it were they're not effective when pair with another very strong addon such as "Sniper Turret" and "Tampered Turret". That combo is the only combo that would render the turret useless after the survivor has been downed, which would make tampered turret a useless addon when there's only 1 bullet in a sniper turret. "Sniper Turret" and "Bag/Box of bullets" would also be a useless combo because the ammunition can only be at 1.
I'm okay with the bleed out timer of Last Wish being reduced to 25 seconds if the time of effect lasted slightly longer.
Last Wish: You want the best for your friends when you pass away. For the next 3/4/5 (Was 2/3/4) minutes after your eliminated from the trial any damage that would put any survivor into dying state will instead trigger a 25 second bleed out timer.
"Hopefully something will watch over us."

You have put a lot of effort in this one. As far as it is, it sounds like a pretty good job!

@ZarStocher Yeah, I wanted an area control killer that's not as easy to counter like the trapper while being scary to go against like the nurse. I always pee my pants when I see I'm facing a Nurse because I'm like "please don't be a god nurse!" but any other killer I'm like meh.ZarStocher said:You have put a lot of effort in this one.
