If any of us asked for mercy of a killer, who would give it to us?
well, we all know that killers are mostly violent so if YOU were on your knees and crying in front of one of them who would let you live?
when you choose one, say it in the comments, I made the list that way to minimize it xd

Trapper/wraith/hillbilly
None of them would probably let you live... but some might be more inclined than others. In lore, trapper would probably be the one to let you go. He didn't want to kill, but is forced to.
...but... I would ask Julie, personally. : P

Plague/demogorgon/oni
The Plague seems to be the most reasonable of the killers, as in her story she doesn't have bad intentions at all. Maybe if you pray to her god and swear faith to The Entity she will spare you.
Other than the plague, I think that Joey and Susie from The Legion wouldn't be hard to convince, but they might be unpredictable.

Doctor/huntress/freddy
Realistically, I don’t see any of them being merciful. Not when they are obligated to appease The Entity.
If I did have to guess, I would say The Doctor. He’d let you go because he knows he’d see the Survivor again in another trial, letting the Survivor escape as if it were a twisted experiment almost. Giving them hope only for them to end right back in the realm.

Ghostface/leatherface
Legion is a bunch of hormonal and emotional teenagers so if you hit an emotional topic for them you might have a chance. Or they let you join into the Legion.
The Clown would probably be down to take you in as a sex slave.
And Bubba, he's kinda... on the spectrum... In the movies he just does everything his family members tell him to do and he doesn't really know better. Like, he puts on an old lady mask and the apron when he wants to be helpful in the kitchen. You could probably come up with some story that he would believe. He also has a crush on one of the kidnapped girls in a movie and tries his best to take care of her and hide her from his family.

Doctor/huntress/freddy
Huntress because she just wanted to protecc in her backstory but she's one of the killers the Entity kinda made into a killer instead of being a natural or close to natural killer like Freddy Nurse Oni and Myers

Trapper/wraith/hillbilly
Wraith, he didn't want to kill the guy at the wrecking yard and the Entity was just like "you're evil now I guess". I feel like he'd have the most sympathy because he's not psychotic at all, just a regular dude who got screwed by his employer.

Trapper/wraith/hillbilly
Lorewise, Philip's one of the very few who absolutely doesn't want any of this.

Jason lmao xd
You know why? Because all you gotta say is " I'm very sorry for you not being in Dead By Daylight" Then he will break down and he will be too sad to kill you.

Trapper/wraith/hillbilly
Between Trapper and Wraith when it comes to the originals. Wraith snapped when he found out he was doing his boss' dirty work, but he wasn't a bad guy.
Plague wasn't evil whatsoever and is just a religious fanatic who believes the Entity is God. I don't think she'd let you live, but she isn't just killing to kill.
Susie couldn't commit murder by herself, couldn't even push the knife in. She's probably the most likely to spare someone, but the other three are pretty long gone at this point.
Also I'd say the two most likely to kill you are probably Myers and Ghostface. They were both serial killers even before the Entity took them. Ghostface enjoyed it. Myers is the personification of evil.

Trapper/wraith/hillbilly
Wraith.

Wraith because he wasn't a bad guy. As long as the Entity doesn't have hold over him, he'd likely be the one to let you go. Aside from that I'd also say Hag or Spirit, as again, neither of them really had any choice in the matter. Hag probably less so because now she's basically a cannibal, but yeah. I'd definitely say Wraith would be the most inclined. You wouldn't get a chance with Myers, Freddy, Amanda, Bubba. Huntress wouldn't let you go either way though, because if you were a male, she'd kill you. If you were a female, she'd kidnap you.

Spirit never killed anyone, and only wanted to kill her father

Trapper/wraith/hillbilly
Trapper is forced to kill so who knows he may have a moment of is former self.
Wraith went mad at the though of all the lives he unknowingly took, so he too may have a moment of his former "good" self.
Billy probably wouldn't care.
1 -
Trapper/wraith/hillbilly
Wraith didn't do anything wrong, he realized he indirectly caused many deaths and so decided to take revenge on his Boss. Hillbilly is too nuts to even show mercy, and Trapper, as we see in his new Lore content, became ruthless and merciless with time.
So yeah, definitely Wraith.

Legion:frank,julie,susie,joey
Any Legion member except Frank. Probably because those other three, while perfectly capable of killing someone, don't really want to do it, but they can't go against Frank. At least that's what it seems to me.
I also thought of the Huntress as a second option. The rest of them I think would probably butcher me no matter what I said.

Legion:frank,julie,susie,joey
that Jason choice made me sad but anyway
"Yoooooo hey kiddos, Murder may be radical, but you know what's cooler? staying in school!"
FR, Susie seems a bit easier to not die to. also it's a ruler. at most it'll sting.

Trapper/wraith/hillbilly
Definitely Wraith. Only one that was pretty much conned into killing without his knowledge, then only knowingly killed for vengeance. Hillbilly's mind has probably been warped after his treatment and Trapper... pretty tragic, but seems he was mind-fudged with daddy issues.

Doctor/huntress/freddy
Freddy for sure. He’s been in my dreams and sees how miserable I am already. He’d probably chalk it up to this is more torture or he’d just feel bad.

Pig/clown/spirit
The Pig literally spares Benedict Baker and gives him a second chance in the lore, but he says that he knows he won’t get a third. The Pig loves toying with people in her games. It’s possible she would let someone live longer so she can have the chance to hunt them again.
The Spirit is obsessed with offing her father. That’s her only goal. She only kills Survivors because The Entity probably bargained with her to give her the chance of meeting her father again. It’s entirely possible that she could let a Survivor go if they talk her down, maybe offer her a way to get to her father?
The Clown? Uh, maybe. I only chose this option because of The Pig and The Spirit.

Trapper/wraith/hillbilly
This one actually made me think for a minute, but I think Billy or Wraith would be the two that I would connect with most and have the best chance at begging and getting away with it

Legion:frank,julie,susie,joey
Wraith and Susie would be the only ones that might canonically go "Oops! Guess I slipped while carrying you to a hook and dropped you next to the Hatch. Oh darn, it would be such a shame if you were to Escape." IMO.
GF might also let you go, but it'd be to tell everyone else how great at killing he is. Not because he's actually merciful.
0 -
Ghostface/leatherface
Ghostface would let you go to tell the tale. Fitting for his character, lore, and would give the survivors more hope which is what the Entity feeds upon.
0 -
I would see Joey and Susie letting you go because they don't like killing and are being brainwashed. Frank would kill you and Julie probably would to appease Frank.
1 -
Pig/clown/spirit
I would say pig, spirit, or nurse. Lore-wise, nurse still has some mercy left in her and spirit just wanted revenge on her father.
If they acted the way players use them, then definitely pig. I'd just boop the snoot and hope I'll be spared.

Trapper/wraith/hillbilly
Wraith just because he seems the least malevolent of all of them. I bet he would have a bit of kindness left in him

Legion:frank,julie,susie,joey
I chose Legion. It wouldnt matter who it was and I wouldnt cry, I would just stare them down, then ask them if Millennial music really is that good?

Ghostface/leatherface
Leather face would be easy talk to him like his family did and say I'm family you (insult here) now go found us some meat (insult here). It might work lol
Ghostface even easier join him, and show him what a smartphone could do.

Trapper/wraith/hillbilly
Wraith would, if anyone has played Legion they'd know that man NEEDS the kills, hehe

Trapper/wraith/hillbilly
I think Wraith would be one of the more merciful one since in his story (from what we know so far) he was tricked in being a killer so if someone managed to convince him that the entity is some sort of projection of his old boss maybe Philip would become more martyr-like and sympathetic towards survivors...

I think it would be the plague, as in her backstory she severs her own toe with no hesitation to save the life of another and seems pretty benevolent in her story
