This website is very helpful if you want to mock up a perk.
Edit: I just wanted something that might stop tunneling.

Killer
Hex: Counterfeit
For every other Hex perk you have equipped, Hex: Counterfeit will convert a Dull totem into a fake Hex totem to a maximum of 1/2/3.
As the killer you will see 3/2/1 of the fake Hex totem(s) aura.
If Hex Counterfeit is cleansed all dull totems and fake totems get broken except hex totems.
I think this a pretty cool idea for defending multiple totems and not just one of them with undying... and ofcourse its named coutnerfeit because its op but if you get caught you are dead, thats why ALL totems get cleansed except hex totems (you get why its counterfeit)

Haven't figured out exactly how to balance this, or how to name it, but I have had this thought for a while now.
Essentially it's a perk where when you vault a window, or a pallet towards the killer, you stun them for a few seconds. However, I would think this would come with a token system, where you'd have to earn a token to get it, and it's limited to a certain amount of tokens. After you used all of them, you can't use it anymore. Y'all are welcome to nerf it if you want.

Survivor Perk: Magician's Assistant
Years of training in the art of stage illusion allows you to hide in plain sight, even in small spaces
Each time the killer opens an empty locker, gain a token up to a maximum of 1/2/3 tokens. When the killer opens a locker you are hiding in, consume one token. The locker will appear empty to the killer when a token is consumed.

Idea I had for Slenderman if he was a Killer:
Paranoia: The myths that surround you invade the minds of the feeble making your prey easy to manipulate. Standing still for 2 seconds during a chase activates this perk. Once activated your red stain remains in the spot facing the same direction you were while standing still. Gain the undetectable status effect for 5 seconds, after which you regain the red stain. This perk has a cooldown of 60/75/90 seconds.
False Hope: Your enigmatic presence deceives your quarry now and forever more. Survivors cannot see progress bars when repairing, healing, sabotaging, cleansing, rescuing other survivors, disarming traps, opening chests, or opening exit gates while outside the Killer's terror radius.
HEX: Grave Peril: Intruders of your domain show no mercy and neither will you. Injured survivors that perform rushed actions suffer from the Broken status effect for 15 seconds. This effect does not effect survivors already suffering from the Broken status effect.

Tech Help
The first chest that you open will always have a Commodious Toolbox. The toolbox will also come with Instructions so the generator won't give skill checks until the toolbox is worn out.
(I couldn't think of a good name)

I think I thought of a decent hex perk actually:
Hex: Bone Voyage
Cleansing this Hex revives all totems(as dull, hex totems gone are still gone forever), places all totems randomly on the map as if the map just started. If its the first totem to be cleansed, adds 3 dull totems and resets itself(bypassing Undying ofcourse, which can be repeated untill all totem spots are filled).
This totem could make hex builds a potential living hell, without actually making hexes themselves broken. It would give more use to Undying, while also making Thrill potentially the strongest hex protection in the game, gives survivors more reason to do dull totems before they dare touch a hex totem as if they found 2 hex totems at the same time, it could potentially mean their discovered totem disappears and moves to another spot. The danger, ofcourse, is that a well hidden hex might put out in the open. Other than that, it's actually a hex you want to be cleansed.

There night be something ssimilar to this so not sure but not gonna read the back pages cause too long lol.... but i got an idea while ago when thinking of the mechaninc of Old Ruin, if i had to change and make a new perk for nurse originally and THEN changed it a bit when i saw that Trickster got a Hex version of Bamboozle so i figuredy why not a version of Sloppy?
Hex: Malicious Malpractice
When Active, Survivors who become injured from a basic attack suffer from both moderate amounts of hemorrhage and an extra Mangled status (basically 1.3 times or so stronger than normal mangled ). While also healing yourself or an injured survivor, good skill checks will give 6/7/8 % regression and great skill checks will offer 0% progression. Failed skill checks give an extra 1% regression. Any survivors healed to healthy will still suffer a "slightly" hemorrhage status while hex is still active. Skill check regression does not occur when trying to heal survivors in the dying state. if any survivor were injured and hex becomes broke, they only suffer normal bleeding and a normal mangled till fully healed.

Thought i posted it and it seemed to have been deleted?? anyway not sure if there's a similar idea but yeah thought of this idea awhile ago and tried to work its mechanic.

An Alan Wake perk:
Bring the Light: You know the power light holds is key to facing the darkness.
The perk becomes active once you have done 80%/70%/65% of a generator. The next time you complete a gen, a radius of 16m/16m/20m around the gen brightens up more than usual for 1 second. Any killer within that radius will be blinded and spun around. Once used, the perk becomes inactive until charged again.

A Magnus Archive survivor - Jonathan Sims:
In short, an archivist who has certqin supernatural powers linked to an entity called "The Beholding"
#1. Persona: You are able to take on characteristics of those who give you statements.
When you finish a healing action on another survivor, you are able to know 1/2/3 of their perks. - Starting those you may not have. You also gain the power of one of those perks for 40/50/60 seconds, effectively giving a temporary 5th perk.
#2. Compulsion: You are able to compel others to give statements, willingly or otherwise. - When you are hit by the killer, you are able to see 1 killer perk. This can happen 1/2/3 times throughout the trial. There is a 60 second cooldown between uses, and cannot be activated when the survivor has the "Endurance" status.
#3. Knowing: You are able to know certain things without prior knowledge. - At the start of the trial, the aura of the killer and survivors are shown to you. You will also see 1/2/3 treasure chests and the item within. The effect vanishes after 4/6/8 seconds.

Killer Perk: Lights Out
Once per match, perform the break generator action on a completed generator and reset the progress bar to 90/80/70% completion.
Killer Perk: Coward's Curse
For every generator completed, any survivors within 2/3/4 meters of the edge of the map will have their aura revealed to the killer. When the exit gates are powered this Perk deactivates.
Survivor Perk: Fixer Upper
If you pick up an item that has previously been used by another survivor, refell the charges by 25/50/75% of the total amount. If this item has already been replenished by any means nothing happens. (This keeps survivors from swapping items and replenishing them constantly with no penalty, so an item can only be replenished once)
Survivor Perk: Savior
For every two heals completed on other survivors, you get one token up to a maximum of 1/2/3 tokens. If you take a protection hit for a survivor while in the injured state you will not go down and instead consume a token.

Grabbed by the Reins sounds like reverse Soul Guard lol

Because it is, an anti-slugging perk which would probably be really good with WGTLF, FTP, or AutoD.

Sounds like some good perks I would play then.

These sound good except Coward's Curse, how would that work on maps like Hawkins or Lerys? Pretty much all of the indoor maps require you to be near the edge. Also, some maps like the swamp have gens on the edge of the map.

This is a full survivor concept with lore and perks!
New Survivor Dorris Halls
Doris grew up in a broken home. His mom had left and never came back, and his dad never cared for him. Maybe that was what gave Doris courage and commitment. He Always loved education. He exceeded far above expectations and was the smartest kid in his class. Later, he graduated with honors and had an amazing road of career opportunities ahead of him. He got a job offer at Clover Inc one of the biggest Producers of Medicine and accepted the offer. While working for clover, he was assigned to create a treatment for a newly discovered fungus. The Rongan Fungus was infecting humans and I caused some major symptoms like swelling, rapid growing of limbs, and blindness. He attempted to create a drug to treat it, after weeks and weeks of work he thought he created something that worked. Once he came back to the lab he found everyone, dead. A guard came in shouting Help. Dorris asked what happened and the guard responded The fungus its killing everyone! He ran out looking traumatized. Dorris saw a black fog roam in and was immediately somewhere else? All Dorris knew was that he wasn't home, or at the lab, he was in another realm.
Dorris comes with Three personal perks

Killer Perk: Booby Trap
This perk summons a random, dummy, 8th generator on the map. It looks and behaves like a regular generator until fully repaired. Once fully repaired, the generator explodes, and injures any survivor within 5(?) meters one health state. Completing the generator does not count towards exit gate progression.

"Self Sacrifice" would be a great perk for the Winchester Brothers from Supernatural whom I would love to see introduced in the game. The perk would allow, with a healing animation, one survivor to "absorb" a hook state from another character and add it to their personal total. Great runners could bail out weaker looping characters.

SURVIVOR PERK: Social status
Your teammates love your willingness to help others causing you to have a very strong social status amongst the survivor team.
Once a generator is completed by repairing it with 3/3/2 other survivors, Social Status activates. Once it activates you have the option to press the active ability button. Once you do the following will happen:
-Reveal all totems on the map for 2/2/3 seconds
-Hide survivor blood trails for 2/5/6 seconds
If 2 or more survivor(s) equip this perk in a trial at the same time, Social Status will not activate. If a Boon Totem is cleansed within the killer's terror radius however, Social Status will reactivate for one random survivor that is carrying this perk without having to repair a generator.

Survivor
1> Eldritch Affinity
You start the trial with 1/2/3 tokens. Each time you're hooked, Eldritch affinity will attempt to spawn shadow pallets on eligible locations within 16m radius of you.
The amount of shadow pallets generated depends on the amount of tokens remaining.
Survivors within Eldritch affinity range can see ther auras highlighted in white. Everytime a pallet gets dropped or destroyed it consumes a token.
2> Heavy Frame
Decreases the speed at which the killer carries you by 12% while increasing the amount of wiggle progress necessary to break free by 10/8/6%.
3> Evasive Maneuvers
Discard your item sideways in a attempt to gain momentum.
Causes you to dash forward briefly (similar to dead hard but without iframes) and to generate lines of scratch marks to the side of your character whilst hiding your own for 3 seconds.
Causes exhaustion for 35/30/25 seconds.
4> Smoke & Mirrors
Whenever your aura is revealed to the killer, it shows him the actions you were performing 6/7/8 seconds ago. This effect gets diminished by 1 second each time it triggers.

Killer
1> Ruiner
Whenever you hook a survivor, the next generator you damage will become highlighted in yellow for all survivors.
For the next 60 seconds, all skill checks generated by targeted generator will become hexed skill checks (good skill checks will regress the progress by 1%/2%/3% while great skills checks will provide no progress).
Increases the odds of receiving skillchecks on affected generator by 12%.
Survivors will achieve objective points regardless.
2> Relentless Pursuit
After chasing survivors for 30 seconds, relentless pursuit becomes active, allowing you to destroy a pallet or a breakable wall with your basic attack and having the successful attack cool down reduced by 20%/30%/40%.
Being stunned by a pallet immediately puts relentless pursuit on cooldown.
Being idle from chases for 5 seconds will cause the progress to begin decaying in a factor of 2 per second.
3> Hex: Doom
When a survivor finishes a generator within your terror radius, he'll suffer from the exposed effect for 16/20/24 seconds. In addition, survivors operating the exit gate lever will be exposed for the duration and for a lingering 3 seconds after stopping the action.

Entity's revenge
After the killer is stunned or blinded five times the next time the killer hits a survivor without failing, he will remove a state of health from all survivors. If he misses the hit, the perk will be reset.

Exiting the tunnel
If the survivor is hanged twice in a row without any other survivor being knocked down, in case he is rescued from the hook a second time he will have full immunity for 30 seconds and if the killer tries to hit him, the killer will not succeed and will be stunned for 7 seconds.

Now that the Devs have mentioned the idea of boon totems, I thought I'd repost these perks I had posted a few months back. Let me know what you guys think of these. When I had made these, I originally called them Blessed Totems (which, in my humble opinion, is a better name than a Boon Totem)
Blessing: Ward of Persistence
Instead of cleansing the hex or dull totems, the survivor instead places a blessing on the totem at xx% the speed of cleansing, signified by a blue flame under the totem.
While a blessed totem is active, all team members can continue to perform actions while in the dying state at xx% speed while within xx m of the blessed totem. This includes Repairing, Healing, Sabotage, Unhooking, Cleansing, Exit Gate Opening, and Chest Unlocking.
The Killer can destroy the blessed totems if they find them, the same way they kick a gen or destroy a pallet.
Blessing: Confusion Charm
Instead of cleansing the hex or dull totems, the survivor instead places a blessing on the totem at xx% the speed of cleansing, signified by a blue flame under the totem.
While a blessed totem is active, the survivor no longer leaves scratch marks while in a chase with the killer within xx m of the blessing as well as receiving a speed boost of xx%.
The Killer can destroy the blessed totems if they find them, the same way they kick a gen or destroy a pallet.
Blessing: Live Feed
Instead of cleansing the hex or dull totems, the survivor instead places a blessing on the totem at xx% the speed of cleansing, signified by a blue flame under the totem.
While a blessed totem is active, the killer's aura will be revealed to the survivor once they are xx m away from the Blessed totem for xx seconds every xx seconds; however, the killer can also see your aura whenever you can see theirs.
The Killer can destroy the blessed totems if they find them, the same way they kick a gen or destroy a pallet.
Blessing: Swing Lock
Instead of cleansing the hex or dull totems, the survivor instead places a blessing on the totem at xx% the speed of cleansing, signified by a blue flame under the totem.
While a blessed totem is active, when grabbed from a locker or interrupted during an action, the closest hook automatically breaks for xx seconds.
The Killer can destroy the blessed totems if they find them, the same way they kick a gen or destroy a pallet.

Survivor Perk: Curb stomp
Sometimes the best catalyst is the fear of failure. You make an example of those who fail you.
Each time that another survivor sandbags you at at window or pallet, gain 1 token.
Each time that another survivor fails a skillcheck within 8 meters of you, gain 1 token.
While you are on the hook and no other survivors are within 30 meters of you, gain 1 token each 20 seconds.
After 5 tokens have been received, stand over another dying survivor to play a mini mori animation to stomp their head, killing them.
The perk deactivates for the remainder of the trial.

(okay, this one isn't a joke perk)
Survivor Perk: This is No Place to Die
While healing another survivor from the dying state, press the ability button to start dragging the dying survivor at 40% (1.6 m/s) movement speed. The survivor being dragged can continue healing and, additionally, recover from the dying state as long as they are being moved.
Once the dying survivor recovers from the dying state, both survivors are granted a 10% (4.44 m/s) Haste effect for 10 seconds.

Had a set for a chapter idea I was working on:
Killer:
Subjugate:
*"Heros arise when cowards face their fears. Make examples of them."*
When a survivor takes a protection hit, your successful hit cooldown is decreased by 30/35/40%.
The Hill They Die On:
*"They hold onto everything they have with their lives. We will take both."*
Kicked generators regress 200/300/400% faster. When the last generator you kicked is worked on, gain 10% movement speed for 12 seconds. The second part has a 60/50/40 second cooldown.
Tactical Reclaimation:
*"Taking the land was only half the battle."
Once per match prior to the exit gates being powered, you may kick a completed generator, reducing it to 80/60/40% progression.
Survivor Perk:
Defiance:
*"We must look this entity in the face and tell it we are not afraid."*
Gain Endurance for 6/8/10 seconds after finishing a gen within a killer's terror radius.
Final Stand:
*"The winner is decided by who can get back on their feet."*
While you are downed, downed survivors within 12/18/24m of you are highlighted white and see you highlighted in white. Once per match, you may recover off the ground and recover allies within 12/18/24m by 25%. (Using with Unbreakable uses both perk's once per game recovery)
Trust:
"*Trust is hard to earn, but saving a life is a good way to do it.*"
After being unhooked, gain a token. Heal 10/12.5/15% faster for each token.

Don't underestimate my strength:
Good for you to know that killers have weak ears
If killer chases you again within 20/30/40 seconds after hooking you up, you will scream and the killer will be stunned for 4/5/7 seconds.
Don't underestimate my strength used once in 60/50/40 seconds.
I'm sorry if I translated it wrong because my English is not very good.
