Springtrap Power Idea

Been re-binging FNAF and my want for him in the game made me brainstorm some ideas

I came up with an interesting power concept, that could also fit the lore. (maybe even use it for an original killer, sounds like a cool power)

Springtrap - 24 mtr TR 110% movement speed

Springtrap has the ability to stalk survivors, for every .5-1 seconds he stalks, he gains 1% extra movement speed. (A maximum of 130% movement speed)

When not stalking, his movement speed is reduced by 1% per second (until back at 110%)

While Springtrap is stalking a survivor, he gains the undetectable status effect.

Passive: If a survivor looks at Springtrap for (x) seconds, they are jumpscared by a nightmare hallucination and scream, revealing their location.


I think it fits his lore, stalking before ambushing survivors with great speed while also being relatively balanced due to the decay of his movement speed as well. Keeping him base 110 would keep him from being too powerful. The not looking at him part is similar to anti-ghostface where you WANT to look at him.

I think you should be punished for staring at him for too long, consider the atrocities he has committed as well as him being a rotting body inside of an animatronic suit.


Any thoughts? Even if you don't like FNAF, I think this would be quite the interesting power concept. Obviously tweaks can be made
