New Character Ideas

~ [SURVIVOR IDEA] - DEATH WISH

Another thought, one that has often crossed my mind, but I always figured could be done easily with the right perks. Still, I decided to write some details on it to get it off my chest.

These survivors, in my mind, would be somewhat against surviving. For example, instead of working on generators, cleansing totems, etc., they would rather bait the killer and save their friends. It’s already a risky deed, which is why I say it’s like having a death wish, but I know so many survivors already do this.

Still, these survivors with this mentality could have perks or add ones that would take away the killer’s attention away from the current survivor target may be chasing. For example, an add on that would be like throwing down Poppers that would make a loud noise when stepped on by the survivor and alert the killer. And sure, the killer can ignore it, but if they do they would be stunned temporarily after downing or injuring another survivor.

These survivors who have death wishes could also have a perk that grants them the same or a pretty good chance at survival. For example, they may be able to take more hits before getting downed or may be able to put up a fight that may also temporarily stun the killer.

Again, survivors coming to save other survivors or purposely bait the killer is nothing new and will never be new, but I think a new survivor (with the right killer) could have have the perks listed that would either allow a better chance at escaping or giving them blood points. I also know there is perks that are similar and such things, but I thought I’d list what was on my mind anyway.

~ [KILLER IDEA] - VOODOO DOLL

I was thinking, after watching Child’s Play, that there could be a killer that could make the survivors numb or inanimate like a doll…but that would literally be too overpowered and the survivors would ultimately be useless. So back the drawing board…and what if there were a killer that has a special power who can poke and prod their obsession?

Obviously a killer would be too overpowered if they were able to mess with every survivor, but doing it to just the one would be fine. Especially since The Obsession is usually toyed with, for obvious reasons, anyway. Why not throw a voodoo doll in the bunch and call it a day. The voodoo doll wouldn’t be used to down a survivor, as then it would be too overpowered, but it can mess with them. For example, the voodoo doll could be used to make a survivor make random loud noises to potentially alert the killer of where they may be if close enough, be able to see that particular survivor if they are within a certain range of the killer, potentially jump scare them, and more. All of this would (potentially) be able to cause one to miss a skill check for whatever they may be doing. Of course, the voodoo doll could have more powers as well, but I’m unsure of what else as I wouldn’t want an overpowered killer. There’s already so many.

Anyway, the killer who would be able to possess this ability could possibly be a witch of sorts that in their past that has performed black magic and other things. I’m not too sure if what they could possibly look like, but I’m picturing an Africans American female with various brightly colored patterns on a dress that would almost look like a Kimono, neon colored untamed hair, and a stitched smile to match. Their weapon could also be various bones wrapped together with black bandages that people who would make voodoo dolls use if it’s bad intentions.

If one couldn’t already tell, I’m going off of what some voodoo dolls look like, so I think the voodoo doll should look exactly like the survivor who is the obsession for the round. I’m not exactly set on anything regarding the killer’s look, anyway, but I liked the idea of having a killer who can use a voodoo doll.

Again, I’m not too sure about this idea, but I feel as if the developers were to see this and put their minds together they could make something work out.

~ [KILLER IDEA] - GLUTTONY

We all remember the story Hansel and Gretel, right? A witch with a glorious house made of and filled with sweets in which one can’t resist…that eats children. I believe a killer similar to this sadistic witch who enjoys feasting on innocent children would be a good addition to dead by daylight.

Her map would, of course, have her infamous delectable house made of sweets and gingerbread, but that’s not all. Possessing the ability to force downed survivors to eat certain drugged sweets, the killer would be able to keep them in her sight for a certain amount of time, permanent terror radius throughout the rest of the trial, and maybe more. The killer, however, can run out of these sweets. They may be able to restock, though, by retreating to a nearby vending machine or cotton candy machine…something of the sorts.

The killer’s mori might include; stuffing the survivor with sweets before dragging to a nearby boiling cauldron (which any map would spawn with presumably) to cook or ripping their jaw off, proceeding to decorate the corpse and/or mouth with sweets. The possibilities are endless. Upon the mention of cauldrons, if maps were to spawn with them, survivors may go to drink handfuls of the hot water to cease the affects of any candy they might have been force fed.

Of course, the killer would have an amazing look, as well. I picture an albino elderly woman with overgrown nails and a horrifying expression…maybe a face that would be made of icing, it hanging down as if dropping. Although very ugly, much like any stereotypical witch, the killer would (maybe) wear an outfit with rotting candy stitched or sewed onto it, having a sword made of candy to match. Perhaps candy cane or a large lollipop, who knows. Again, the possibilities for this killer’s look would be seemingly endless.

🍭Can you count how many times I mentioned candy? 🍭

I actually have not! I didn’t even know there was going to be a new one, wow. I was going off the 2013 make. 😂

Thank you so much! I’ve got more ideas on the way for killers, but it’s so hard for any survivor types to come to mind.🤕

~ [KILLER IDEA] - THE SOUNDS OF A SIREN

They sound beautiful, singing such music to lure a man or woman in, but in the end they look absolutely horrible with large shark-like teeth that smile sadistically as they spot their prey.

Horrible how? This particular siren would be terribly…bloated. Rolls upon rolls and a caked face to match, it’s obviously true that these songs only attract their food, not lovers. I’m not too sure of any particular details regarding what the killer may look like other than this, but I don’t believe a mermaid type of siren would be a good fit for dead by daylight. Especially since not all maps would have any bodies of water.

When these killers are near, they can sing (their ability) melodic sounds that would make a survivor go in and out of focus various times until the killer stops singing or walks away. This could (potentially) cause skill checks to be missed, confuse the survivor, and make any processes go slower than before. While singing, any survivors near wouldn’t be able to hear a terror radius as well, deeming it possible for an easy game of cat and mouse.

Speaking of abilities and such things, every killer needs a weapon. This killer in particular could do well with broken instruments made of bones or rusted material that would be joined together to make a sword or something long and sharp, perhaps. It would fit well with the story of a siren, anyway, as instruments do make music.

Lastly, their mori would consist of more or less, cannibalism. It’s nothing new to the dead by daylight world, but different animations and killers wouldn’t be so dull. For example, the killer could seductively examine the survivor before tearing the bottom part of their shirt off (where they torso would be) before eating them or ripping their skin off.

😂😂

Love the pun! They’ve probably made a lot of killers and survivors, they’re just waiting in line. There’s new content every 3 months.

~ [SURVIVOR IDEA] - QUARTERBACK

Dressed in his team’s colors, built and prepared for a rough match whenever he discovers he’s at the wrong stadium. Now he’s just a stocky football player fighting to escape alongside the rest of the survivors.

Figuring he’s a football players and they can tackle and have both defensive and offensive plays, this survivor would be given a perk that allows them to tackle the killer if they are close enough, stunning the killer for a few seconds to make a quick get away. As he’s dressed in his football attire, it would be a lot harder to down him. He’d have to receive multiple hits (maybe three) before getting finally downed by the killer. Finally, like Meg, this particular survivor would have a similar sprint burst perk as he’s been trained to have more endurance and speed.

Alongside perks, this survivor also comes with add ons. For example, a good add on would be Gatorade. These would grant an extra percentage of speed and controlled breathing, even when exhausted. Another add on would be his helmet, which seemingly got lost running away from the killer. This item would allow the survivor’s chances of getting hit lessen (smaller hit boxes) for the duration of the round as it serves as protection.

Anyways, I haven’t much else to put on here. This was sort of an after thought, so this post is pretty limited on details and explanation. Sorry!
