A Sonic Scream Killer in Dead by Daylight could be a terrifying and unique addition, offering interesting gameplay mechanics. Here’s how this type of killer might work:

Killer Concept: The Siren
•Weapon: A jagged, conch-shaped blade or sharp claws.
•Power: Sonic Scream

•The Siren has the ability to unleash a high-pitched scream that disorients survivors and damages their hearing.

Power Details:

•Sonic Pulse: The Siren charges her scream, sending out a wide cone of sound that disorients survivors within range.

•Effects: Survivors hit by the scream suffer from Deafened status (no heartbeat, distant sounds are muffled) for 30 seconds and experience slowed actions like repairing generators or healing by 10-20%.

•Exhaustion: If survivors are in the immediate blast, they become Exhausted and are temporarily slowed down.

•Shriek Dash: After unleashing a fully charged scream, The Siren can dash forward quickly, lunging toward survivors who are momentarily stunned by the loud blast. This allows for quick chases, but has a cooldown.

Special Ability: Echo Location

•Survivors affected by the Deafened status also have a unique sound cue that only The Siren can hear, allowing her to track them from a distance while their hearing is impaired.

Perks:
1.Echo Chamber: When two or more survivors are working on the same generator, progress is slowed by 10%. If one survivor is hit, the other survivors nearby scream and are revealed.

2.Feedback Loop: For every pallet dropped within 16 meters, The Siren gains a speed boost of 3% for 10 seconds. Stacks up to 2 times.

3.Resonance: Damaging generators causes a loud bang, revealing survivors working on other generators within a 24-meter radius for 5 seconds.

This killer would thrive in disrupting communication between survivors and could create intense moments where survivors feel isolated from each other. What do you think of this concept for Dead by Daylight?
