-_- fine... let's talk about the killer coming in the summer

Jesus Christ people. Yes the killer I recently came out and yes the killer does have quite a bit of problems with the way they play. However, constructive criticism is much better than just Mindless $itching.

Since you all don't really care much for this new killer. Let's talk about the killer coming in the summer which has been dropped as being the Oldest killer in the game lore wise.

Now I'm thinking a Miner 49er or a pirate. We could just take it a step further and have it be a cultist.

    I hope it's a mummy or something from the Victorian era. Maybe a Witch Doctor or A Voodoo man

    It's actually coming spring, not summer. Based on all the clues we've been given thus far I expect either a doctor jykell/Hyde or Jack the Ripper type killer.

    Isn't there one more? Slated for March presumably?

    4 Killers.

    Clown
    Spirit
    Legion

    Oops, you right. I'm thinking of the 2018 roadmap. I forgot that one stretches on to spring 2019.

    If it's going off of oldest it'd have to be around Benedict Bakers time or even before that and we already have a Dr type killer. We have Shape for Jack the Ripper type and Nurse is Victorian era and everyone else is more recent.

    My guess would be someone from a region we've yet to see so far say Africa like a witch doctor or even a mummy.

    Baker is 1940’s era,

    the Trapper is older than that presumably due to Bakers first encounter with the Entity being is adventure to discover what happened at the Macmillian estate.

    The oldest is the Huntress.

    I thought she was WWI/II era and Nurse was Victorian era with Baker somewhere around there.

    IIRC, Anna is WWI, Sally is WWII, and Baker began his investigation in 1956, according to his journal.

    Thanks, for some reason Bakers seems older and which journal had the 1800's entry or am I mixing one of those up?

    I think Baker assumed he landed in the 1800's after he went to realm. That's why his entries change date.

    It's a continuity error, but it's explainable by the Entity's realm not having a linear temporal progression, which would confuse any normal humans.

    They said oldest by far. I'm hoping either a Pharoah/Mummy or a Caveman.

    Having a caveman would be epically funny and for some reason Captain Caveman popped into my head when I saw your post.

    New killer image, not to scale. 😁

    The coolest concept for a killer will always be a plague doctor. Dayum.

    Without liscenced killers, there's soo many horror tropes that are still "missing".

    A (undead) pirate sounds super awesome, so does a Mummy. And honestly, I think we need a Vampire or Werewolf at some point. Vampire is probably easier to do visually.

    I really do hope its a mummy. I'd love some type of Egyptian catacombs or tombs. And if were going with the theme of making survivors connected to killers again (like Adam teaching in Japan and Jeff being from Ormond) then the next survivor could be an archaeologist.

    That's pretty old and it also has the bonus of being a real life killer as well.
