killer idea - THE "SURVIVOR"
Hello! I think that this idea would be interesting… I have been playing for a while now, and seeing that all killers have unique abilities or looks to them, I would propose one that would be a spooky one, as well as a confusing one.
What if the killer could disguise itself as a survivor? Let me tell you how this could work.
- The killer could place itself on a gen, playing the repair animation, and mask itself as a survivor.
- Once an actual survivor arrives, the killer could unmask itself, taking 1-3 seconds so the survivor has a chance to get away.
- MAYBE this is overkill, but the killer could transform into a survivor, undetected, and follow a group or just one person for a few seconds without the real survivor knowing its the killer, then again, the killer would unmask, with a slowdown of again maybe 2-3 seconds to let the survivors run a little.
I really like this idea because it would present trust issues in between every survivor, and having them on their toes in case one of their "friends" who has been following them is actually hunting them down.
Also, maybe it would be cool if the killer could choose between a "injured" or normal state while following survivors
That's all I have for now! I had to come and write this quick before I forgot. Cheers

This is a concept that gets tossed around a lot, & the consensus most come to is that it wouldn't work because it would be too easy to know who the imposter is.
Imitation by itself isn't that powerful.
This killer needs an additional power, the mask should be secondary. Also, the 1-3 second cool down is unnecessary, the killer should be able to basic attack out of the disguise.

Well the skin could change every mask, from one of the four survivors, it could shuffle

the issue with this is that swf exists.

While this idea sounds cool in theory, the Survivors could do the other gens while your pretending to repair one. Also, there is no need to follow survivors instead of just hitting them. This basically turns it into myers without evil incarnate.

What if the killer had the Lights Out modifier attached to their power?
They'd be more intimidating if the survivors had limited visibility, & Lights Out is notorious for overstimulating SWF players.
It'd still be a normal match though, so everyone gets their perks.

Lights out could be good yea, and also, it would be funny because in VC, if someone asks like is this you, and they say no, and then they realize, that could be a scary jumpscare to a player lol when the killer unmasks itself

That is where the mask as a survivor comes in, you see somebody else on a gen, fake join in, suprise kill
