What if survivors decide to kill the killer?

There's some game that i won't name that had this feature, it was so easy to do that it was one of the things that lead said game to it's death...
So yeah, i'm against it, and it's stupid (Also lore wise it doesn't make sense)

@plu I wasn’t suggesting they add it. I was asking what if from a lore perspective. Also I don’t want dbd to be F13

I think they can't kill them, since the Entity give the killer's over human strengh and speed, I think it also boost their resistance.

@Unnamed_Freak I can see that being true.

My bad then,i misinterpreted what you said.
But honestly, it's unlikely to happen since the Entity gives killers more force and resistance...but still make them vulnerable to pallets...uh, that's weird, let's just say it's so survivors can have "hope".
But if it ever happened i'm pretty sure the entity would get pissed off and end the trial in the same way it ends the game during the collapse and would ressurect the killer to start a new trial, it's clearly something it can do since survivor keeps dying over and over.

@plu that does seem very likely.

I think they'd become killers, themselves, right?

Samination did try to address this in one of his animations...

Even if the killer could be killed by the survivor the entity imbues everyone it takes on both sides with everlasting life. The killers would just return and survivors would still be just as trapped as they can't die permanently and can't escape the entity's realm. Also there is no way to know if survivors could take up arms against a killer. Hatchets could simply cease to be the moment a survivor tries to touch it. The tools are copies of tools that were created by another survivor. They probably can't be used to harm anyone either.

Very good point @ReikoMori.

I think the killers are immortal.

@Saint_Ukraine possibly true but, I think @ReikoMori might be right.

I have a short film in mind that would explore this concept a bit.
I hope I can get a decent enough camera and mic for my birthday

I really hope to get it 😆
After winning second place I am so motivated to keep doing videos :)

It would be a dream to be honest. I just need to learn a few tricks :)

The survivors could also decide to leave the Entity's realm. It'd probably end up the same way.

Lore:
The survivors are in a dream/nightmare like state which makes it impossible for them to act outside the game rules.
They are either compelled to not do it (dont have the impulse to try it) or simply cannot do it.

Though, the lore also states that previous survivors not only acted outside the game's rule, but found ways to bend and break them. A survivor crafted both the black lock(hatch), The golden toolboxes which then stolen and copied into inferior toolboxes we use now, and the ability to interact with the bloodweb is due to Benedict surviving long enough to understand how to bend the entity's power in his favor.
What is more interesting is that the entity doesn't take a punitive action against them for doing such things it seems. Probably because it gives the survivors more hope which it feeds on.

The devs have stated before that the killers are indestructable and invincible, they can only feel pain and that's why they always grunt when they are hit by DS / Pallet or something.

The entity stops them

I feel like it all depends on intention. If a survivor goes insane and ends up acting out of insanity the entity would see if it could get it to kill. But not with immediately activating end game collapse or just downright killing everyone in the trial himself. But if someone like Ash was attempting to protect Dwight the entity would undoubtedly get pissed and kill everyone in the trial.

I am guessing the entity would intervene I mean look what it can already do with spirit fury,EGC,window blockers I would say that's what stops the survivor's.

Good point.

Judging by the gameplay and how the survivors act. The killers are immortal. Which if you think about it. That is a punishment unto itself. Eternity having to get pallet slapped. ;)

I don't think that they can die, but essentially they could be stopped, sorta.
in order for DS to work, the skin needs to be punctured, meaning their skin can be cut, so using the hatchets, they could technically cut off the legs and arms, making them unable to move, and start a new life there, so long as they don't start the end game collapse. then again, the entity might just yoink em anyway. maybe they could attack the entities claws? idk.

They would just keep coming back with no problem and only the flimsiest of explanations, just like the slasher movies that DBD was borne from. 😀

I doubt the killers can be killed. They are described as unstoppable and take pretty much any damage. They can be stabbed,blinded,crushed and even slammed by locker doors and sharp blades(trapper). But maybe it is possible by using their own weapons against them since they are enchanted and can destroy and kill anything

I swear the amount of people who wanted to gang up on Jason was crazy.

This is easy to answer. The Killers can´t be killed... Just take a close look at the Killers and you´ll see that they´re dead already. With some it´s more obvious (Spirit, Wraith, Hag...) than with others (Trapper, Legion, Ghostface)... but the conclusion is, all Killers are dead people.

Yeah and Survivors can't be killed either. They just respawn at the campfire. So? It'd be fun to actually have a new DBD mode where Survivors collaborate to actually imprison/kill the Killer. I think a lot of people would appreciate the more direct and personal victories over the killer rather than repairing gens.
but tbh, we all know the real reason: that's a lot of work to design and build. it won't happen, if the game isn't struggling they have no reason to shake things up.

If they did somehow manage to pull that off, I imagine the killers would just come back to life in the same fashion that the survivors do. The Entity probably wouldn't be very fond of that, though, granted it made the Trials play out how they do for a reason. I think it'd intervene before or after it happened and prevent it from happening again.

So, Iam gonna quote for this game's slogan: death is not escape. Even if survivors were able to kill killer, it's not gonna change anything. It would be as significant as survivor's death.
And also, there is a great quote from Batman:
If you kill a killer the number of killers in the world remains the same.
So, this most likely will lead to corruption of this survivor and becoming Entity's another tool.

The entity should kill him/her if he/she gets zero kills.

In a normal leveled playing field, some survivors could fight back and even kill killers. Let's take Jeff and David for example:
Those two could take on most killers, like Legion and Pig or even Ghostface.
But the survivors can't fight back in the Entity's realm. Here's probably the best example:
David King, an alcoholic English pugilist can't even defend himself from a schoolgirl like Julie or Susie, yet they can easily pick him up like a 12 pack of beers. Why? The Entity controls everything in her realm, everything. But hey, maybe that's just limited to gameplay mechanics. I'd like to think that in the actual trials David would put up good fights against the killers. But that's up to the Entity to decide.
