Can we get a killer inspired from african or middle eastern lore ?
EDIT : I am not talking about killer's nationality (Wraith comes from Africa) but lore related creatures like Onryo or Oni !
Hello,
A little context :
Last night I was arguing with a facecamping bubba (gotta love this game) and while reviewing his steam profile (I promise I didn't let a bad review), I saw he was from Iraq.
He told me the West was crumbling but that's not important (guy plays an american killer in a canadian game, ok sis, gotta love the irony).
And I think, can we have a killer inspired from said lore ?
Yeah we got The Plague, from Babylonia, but she isn't really a classical figure from Africa or Middle East.
What y'all think about this ?
I got 0 knowledge from these lores and I would love to learn more too.
P.S. : please add bloody cosmetics on legendary characters, I want some blood on my Carlos

I thing Wraith might be from Africa, but I'n not 100% sure (his powers and add-ons are connected with VooDoo, so he can actually be Afro-American). Although I like geographical and timeline diversity this game have, so I would like to see more killers from different regions and times.
P.S More survivors not from present times, like Victorio Toscano, and Gabriel Soma may also be nice.

Very true, he is Nigerian.

Oh yes of course, I forgot this one.
But I was talking about creatures coming from african or middle eastern lore,
Correct me if I am wrong but the Wraith doesn't belong in this category ?

One guy made a poll sometime ago about which lore to include, there were a lot of ideas. We got modern culture covered, but if we are talking about folklore, there is motherload of ideas.
From African i'd pick Baron Samedi or Jhinn/Ifrit right of the bat. But besides that, there are slavic, greek, central american, south american and many many more. The only japan could provide hundreds of killers (although I'd pause on japanese, because we already have two onryos, oni, titans, new skin sets, etc etc.)

The Wraith is from Africa. His lore is really interesting and sad at the same time. I feel bad for him :(

No sis, what I meant was I would like to see a popular figure from african folklore ! Yes Philip is from Africa but he is not a folkloric creature
Yeah that's that ! Onryo, Oni are folkloric creatures from Japan and this is great

A Djinn Killer would be great.
