Can we ever have a killer like Onryo or Myers taken to an extreme

A killer that literally doesnt have an attack, doesnt hook or even injure survivors. But instead manages a different resource that when filled allows the killer to mori a survivors if a few conditions are met.

Basically Onryo's condemn but taken to an extreme. That breaks the rules of the game in a completely different way but still has counterplay and survivor interaction.

The closest thing i can think of is death from Final Destination but maybe a killer with no ''body'' can be boring for the survivors after a while, we probably dont have to go that extreme.

Pretty dumb but i would love to see it.

    I doubt they'd want to eliminate the use of hooks entirely.

    You could argue that Plague counters any healing related abilities, but there's still scope to bypass it via cleansing and getting injured via M1.

    So whatever power this would be would still have to leave room for potential hooks, like Pyramid Head.

    I mean. The killer im talking about isnt actually that far fetched mate.

    I'm basically describing tombstone Myers except without the ability to even attack. Do tombstone myers tend to attack?

    I don't think it would ever be balanced. It'll either be too weak, onryo's condemn, or you'll have the ability to kill someone at 5 gens, tombstone piece.

    Oh yeah it would be a nightmare for balance.

    Maybe if this power resource first led into instadowns, then progressed to mori's. So that you have a window where you could potentially make use of hooks if you decide to.

    Kinda like Trickster lacerations or any kind of stack system, Condemned etc.

    A base power couldn't be as effective as Tombstone Myers, that's only still in the game because its a Very Rare/Iri add on.

    And without any way to make a hook rescue, you're basically making tunneling/camping uncounterable.

    Wait is Tombstone Myers considered good? Isnt he pretty weak even with it?
