Fan Licensed Chapter Concept: Fatal Frame

This is my 5th concept for a chapter, taking inspiration from the horror game series Fatal Frame, coincidentally from the 5th installment in the series Maiden of Black Water. Hardest part was thinking of a way to add the Camera Obscura into the concept, but I think I found a decent balance.

Please let me know what you think! Gave up on links and just did my best to throw pictures of the characters in instead.

NEW KILLER: THE MAIDEN

Name: Ose Kurosawa

Gender: Female

Nationality: Japanese

Difficulty Rating: Hard

Movement: 4.4 m/s

Weapon: Dark Miasma

A blue miasma cloud that bursts with powerful spiritual energy. After hitting a Survivor, The Maiden will curl her fingers, recalling the miasma.

Mori: The Maiden conjures a large black casket filled with black water, while spectral limbs drag the Survivor inside of it. The casket is sealed shut as the Survivor screams for help trying to escape, drowning in the process as they struggle.

Lore:

"Originally from a small village on the other side of Katase, at the base of Mt. Hikami, she was the sole survivor of a flood that killed many people, and the incident left her with the ability to see things others couldn't, forcing her to take a position as a shrine maiden on the mountain. When her time came to enter the casket and become an Immortal Flower, it was decided that she would serve as a Great Pillar, supporting the mountain and preventing black water from overflowing from the Shadowspring.

Ose went on to perform her ritual, entering the casket willingly. Once the lid was closed, however, she was flooded with the feelings of all of the shrine maidens being massacred. Her spirit was tainted, and she turned into an evil ghost, forever waiting for someone to die with, or accept her memories so she could be at rest.

A presence called to her from beneath the Shadowspring, a malevolent force that persuaded her, taking advantage of her request. Descending deep into the darkness, Ose's spirit had begun to fade into a new realm; one where she is able to spread the pain and misery she has suffered and find one person to end it all with."

KILLER POWER: Black Water Maiden

A dark rain showers, drenching the Trial Grounds with pools of black water. The waters enhance one's spiritual presence overtime, luring ghouls to haunt the living.

SPECIAL INTERACTION: SHADOW-TOUCHED

Shadow-Touched are ghosts who will spawn in random locations and will roam the Trial Grounds to haunt Survivors. There is a default number of 3 Shadow-Touched that can be on the map at any given time, and their Aura is revealed to you in white. They are intermittently visible to Survivors within a 20 meter range, while invisible beyond that radius.

The Shadow-Touched cannot inflict damage to a Survivor on their own, however, when they attack they will cause a Survivor to scream.

A Shadow-Touched can be blinded by a Flashlight, giving Survivors a chance at evading their pursuit. They will be drawn to any loud noise notifications performed within a 16 meter range of their location.

Shadow-Touched will respawn 15 seconds after swarming a Survivor, or after 30 seconds if they were exorcised by the Camera Obscura.

SPECIAL ATTACK: SUMMON GUARDIAN

The Maiden starts the Trial with 2 Tokens.

Press and Hold the Power button to charge an attack, then tap the Attack button to summon a Guardian on the ground directly in front of The Maiden. If a Survivor screams or performs a loud noise notification within a 12 meter range of a Guardian, their location will be revealed through Killer Instinct. The Guardian will respond to any Survivor within a 12 meter range of them, readying to attack them by lunging their entire body towards them, moving around any obstacle if necessary. On a successful hit, the Guardian will take a Survivor's Health State and will disappear from the Trial Grounds.

A Guardian's Aura will be in revealed in white to you. Survivors can avoid detection by crouching or walking out of the Guardian's line of sight.

A Guardian will remain at the location it was summoned at for 24 seconds, or until manually dismissed by The Maiden by pressing the Active Ability button. There can be up to a max of two Guardians at any given time.

A Survivor can interrupt a Guardian's attack by stunning them, but they will not immediately disappear. A Guardian stunned by a Survivor will give up their pursuit and reveal the Survivor's location through Killer Instinct.

SPECIAL INTERACTION: CAMERA OBSCURA

The Aura of the Camera Obscura will be revealed to all Survivors 45 seconds into the Trial. By collecting energy from a Generator, the Camera Obscura can be powered for the Survivors to use. With the item equipped, a Survivor can expend its charges in order to:

• Exorcise a Shadow-Touched roaming the Trial Grounds.
• Exorcise a Guardian summoned by The Maiden.
• Stun and/or Blind The Maiden.

The Camera Obscura requires 8 charges to use its function, with a total of 24 charges by default. For a Survivor to use the Item, they must aim it in their intended direction for 2.5 seconds. A powerful flash of light will be fired from the camera within a 30 degree cone.

If The Maiden sends a Survivor holding onto the Camera Obscura into the Dying State or finds the item first, it will lose all of its charges and be sent to another location within the Trial Grounds.

KILLER PERKS

Yuri went to Mount Hikami and attempted to end her pain by jumping off a cliff, but was stopped at the last minute by a young woman by the name of Hisoka Kurosawa. The two became close, and Yuri eventually ended up living with Hisoka in her antiques store, Kurosawa Antiques.

After a series of requests to search for missing people, Yuri is spirited away by a strange phenomena while she is resting inside the shop.
