WIP: Figure In The Woods
Hey guys! I am looking for feedback for my new killer. Any feedback is appreciated!
New Killer - The Leaper
--------------------------------
Lore and Minor Details
--------------------------------
Being stuck somewhere for days with no food can cause even the most strong-willed of people to act like monsters. When Laura Johnson and her husband, Zachary Johnson, went on vacation to relax in a small cabin in the woods of Canada, away from their busy business lives, Zachary made sure to avoid bringing any technology; claiming it to be an "unplugged vacation to truly relax". Only a day after arriving to the cabin and settling in, what was once a nice light snow day had become a nasty blizzard in the evening. Believing that the storm would pass by morning, the couple went to bed comfortably after a nice romantic dinner, celebrating 20 years of their marriage. Upon waking, the entire building was covered in heavy ice, which must had hardened further over night. Scared and confused, Laura began to cry as her husband attempted to open a window to try and break the ice. Zachary began hitting the ice with a hammer, but it was no use. Trying to comfort Laura, Zachary stated that "someone would realize we were gone", and so, they began to hold out, rationing their food until rescue would eventually arrive. After only a week, the food supply had run out, and the two became increasingly hungry. Laura, having lost her sanity, came to Zachary late one night and slit his throat in his sleep. Finally able to satiate what seemed like endless hunger, Laura ate the corpse of her husband. Once she was full, she realized the snow had cleared and she could finally leave and return back to her busy life in the city. "Wait" she thought to herself. "Life is so much simpler out here, and the food is delicious". Laura had made up her mind. She would live in the cabin. Laura's first days in the cabin were spent hunting small animals like rabbits, but the taste of them was... Off. Laura didn't feel the same satisfaction the her husband's flesh had given her. Laura had begun to realize she liked the taste of human meat, and just the thought of it had made her become hungry once again. Tricking hikers and other people to "come to the cabin and help her husband" day after day, she would kill eat them raw, only to become hungry once again. Only one taste of human flesh was enough to drive her for more. Once the police had finally noticed the increasing disappearances, they went to investigate the cabin only to find it completely abandoned. Laura, however, had found a new home in the fog, and with the Entity's gift, she had become something more than human. A form to fit a hungry being.

Passive
------------
Due to it's various mutations to it's leg bones, The Leaper cannot move very quickly without leaping. The Leaper moves at 96 percent movement speed and has a slightly reduced lunge range. The Leaper has also been granted the ability to walk on surfaces not accessible to survivors.
------------
Ability
------------
Every 3 seconds spent not winding up or performing a Leap Attack, gain a token up to a maximum of 4. Hold the Ability Button to spend a token and wind up a Leap Attack. Upon releasing the Ability Button after winding up the Leap Attack for at least 1 second, leap into the air in the direction you are looking. The Leap Attack will begin to rapidly pull The Leaper downward if they are flying through the air longer than 1.5 seconds. Upon landing on a survivor with a Leap Attack, they will take one health state of damage and The Leaper is forced to wipe their weapon. The Leaper cannot perform a Leap Attack on Dying or Hooked survivors. After performing a Leap Attack without making contact with a survivor and having hit the ground, there is a short (1.5 second) window where The Leaper can spend another token to instantly perform another Leap Attack without waiting the minimum windup period. Chaining Leap Attacks can be done indefinitely as long as a token is available to spend. Hitting the ground after a Leap Attack without making contact with a survivor causes no cooldown. The default travel speed of a Leap Attack is 25 m/s. The Leaper enters the trial with the maximum amount of tokens they can carry.
---------
Perks
---------
Taste Their Fear - Upon entering the trial, the closest survivor's aura is shown to you for 2/3/4 seconds. Survivors cannot spawn within 24 meters of you.
"Mmmmm... The first bite is always the sweetest!"
- Laura Johnson
Sampler - Upon damaging a survivor by any means, gain a token. Each token increases the regression speed of damaged generators by 3/4/5 percent.
"Maybe just one more piece."
- Laura Johnson
Meal Prep - Each time a generator is completed, gain a token up to a maximum of 5. Each token reduces the healing speed of all survivors by 6/8/10 percent.
"Let me have you for dinner."
- Laura Johnson
Comments
The augmentations seem fun, but easily abusable.
I really like the idea of a killer that can walk on walls and ceilings and uses jumping to get around, but I feel like they need to be fleshed out more story-wise.

Alright, all that is left is addons.
