Could a killer with magic or fire work
So could a killer with fire or even magic work in DBD? I did hear they tried a flying killer before an that it didn't even work so they didn't go ahead with it.

Could it work? Sure, absolutely. You could have a killer that throws fireballs at the survivors pretty easily (it would basically be the Huntress). Although we tend to stay away from that style of fantasy, it wouldn't really fit with the overall aesthetic of the game. That could always change down the line, of course.

Wouldn't Hag technically speaking be using magic?
Or am I the big dumb?

Flying guy was apparently op as #########.
Killer with fireballs? would be weird.
Killer with flamethrower? Now we are talking.?

The killer is Hans
And he went to get the Flammenwerfer

I think so.
But fireballs would be a bit much XD

There is one big problem with the flamethrower: I promise you that the lags + frame drops for the flame throwing animation would be worse than Doc's shock or Plague's vomit.

but, but, I wanna yell "BURN IN HOLY HELL FIRE" for no reason...

What @TheHoodiedOne said.
Also, there's fire already in every map. It's just a little more ?

Here's a killer i made with magic AND fire.

Okay, let's add the flamethrower then. A couple more lags won't really make a difference.

We need Genji from overwatch as a killer, shurikuns throwing Killer who double jumps over pallets and loops. Or tracer who just rewinds time with whoever is nearby to redo parts of a chase.

Ah so like a flying killer they wouldn't really work? I assume a grim reaper wouldn't make sense in DBD either because the entity is the one who takes the bodies of dead survivors away?

I can see it working.
Death already works for dracula, it could work for the entity too

WHEN???

I kinda wonder what power the reaper would have as it's sorta fantasty isn't it?

I have posted Killer ideas for both of those.

Here's my Reaper proposal if you're interested.

If there were a wizard/magic themed killer it would make more sense to have someone be able to use telekinesis, like Carrie.

Bruh. I wanna drop pallets on survivors stupid little heads with my mind powers. I didn't even know I wanted this but I really do.

Grim reaper is fantasy, just like freddy krueger is.
The main thing, is that the style doesn't clash with the game. And it fits quite well.
For starters, unique weapon, no one has a scythe yet.
Second, it's powers could be pretty much anything. There's a different version of the grim reaper everywhere, and they have different abilities.
3rd, the grim reaper is cool as #########

I just had a visual of Nea running around in flames. It made me smile.

Carrie would be super cool! Stephen King as the survivor plz!
0 -
Only magic I could imagine is a dark magic or perhaps a warlock of the entity or something.
0 -
it would be just frightening to see a grim reaper just like effing float to you out of nowhere lol, God this makes me miss original killers because you had no idea what they were gonna do, if after pennywise we get an original killer I'll be pleased tbh.
0 -
I want more original Killers as well. And yeah a Reaper Killer would be awesome as hell.
0 -
Sue Snell or the gym teacher (I can't remember her name) as the survivor would be cool. If BHVR ever did anything inspired by Stephen King, I'd love for it to be Carrie---I feel like if they did Pennywise it'd cheapen it.

Sorry, those aren't for you.

I could definitely see some sort of "damned firefighter" killer who uses a fire axe and a flamethrower or something. Maybe flames would cause some sort of new burning condition.

Does fire breathing satan or devil still count as fantasy?
0 -
There was a poll at Twitch Rivals where they proposed killer ideas. There was Voldemort, maybe mostly for the joke, but I think he has good potential. Or Dementor. But Harry Potter is not really horror, and the license...
0 -
I would love to see a killer who can appear to exactly mimic a survivor. That would be some game changing power!
0 -
you could have a killer with a flame thrower, that works kinda like plague. They light you on fire, and you have a certain amount where you can extinguish it. If you can't do it in time, you lose a health state or get injured. Might be crazy strong so the killer would probably have to be 110%.

With the current health system I think DoTs arent that... feasible. ( see Deep Wounds)
But if doctor can have electricity, and hag vodoo, not to mention doomy bells or teleports... magic is a rather broad term.
Instead of dealing damage, Fire could also be used as unpassable terrain, similiar to entity blockers on windows/exit.

Like a killer that uses mirrors somehow? That would pretty awesome.
