Killer idea

so I know a good chunk of us in the community want a werewolf in game. It seems fun and creative and a classic monster that doesn’t need copyright permission. The killers name would be the shifter, his chapter could be called howling woods, and the backstory is that hikers and other people have been disappearing in a stretch of the Appalachians for a while now. Park authorities might have thought it was a bear so a trapper was called in to track the attacks over their years named Blake jones he knows this is no ordinary bear by the victims remains and sue to stories his uncle told him about the area he knows this has to be the legendary werewolf he spoke of. The killers main function will be a scent mechanic kind of like the oni picking up blood but instead he gets on the scent of a survivor, when his meter fills his ability is called blood moon, the shifter gets on all fours and gains quicker vault speed and the ability to hit a charge attack that can pounce on a survivor and hinder them. The survivor in the chapter can have the perks bear trap, rugged survivor, and bump in the night. The bear trap is a trap that can be seen by other survivors and when stepped on by the killer will stop and slow them for a small moment, the rugged survivor perk will make it to where you can traverse the terrain of the map more efficiently (im still working that part out) and bump in the night makes it to where perks like infectious fright and other perks that cause survivors to scream don’t cause that effect and grant a small burst of haste status. Hope you guys like it, lmk what you would improve and what you like.

    Hello. I REALLY Love this idea!

    Tbh I just posted here about a new killer idea that also uses Scent xD I think that is kinda funny!

    If you wanna read about it. Please do! Gimme your thoughts:

    @Nightram said:

    The Master is a former circus animal performer.

    The killer has a normal walking speed and a normal terror radius.

    Uses a whip as a base weapon.

    Base power: The Whip can injure survivors from a short and a long range. Being able to hit over pallets and windows.

    Or to be used to hit around corners for some special chases. "There could be a timer for that"

    Special power The Ring

    ●The Ring: Takes out a golden ring,(Acts like a portal) an animal will jump out to FIND or CHASE the survivor.

    ○Scent will be aquired when hitting a survivor with the whip. This way you can choose wich survivors you want to find or chase.

    ●FIND: A undeadly animal will be commanded to find a survivor, to follow them for a limited time. Killer get the killer instinct from the animals radius.

    ●CHASE: A deadly animal will be set to chase a survivor for a limited time. The animal can injure or down the survivor.

    ○Upon a hit the survivor have to mend after.

    ●Special Power: Over time the ring will get the ability to burn, and a lethal animal will jump out to have the ability to FIND and CHASE the survivors from a SCENT. (Can be used in direct chase or to find and down a survivor) Direct hit from this animal will down the survivor. After hitting a survivor the animal will patrol the body for a limited time ti give away the location of the downed survivor.

    Survivors to Counter The Animals:

    Coverage: Survivors can reset and change their scent. By finding perfume bottles around the map. Up to 2 usages per bottle.

    This will mask the animals scent trying to find and chase you.

    In chase: Jumping in a locker the animal will act like a finder and patrol your place until its time run out. Or injure you if you get out too soon.

    Stunning the animals by any means will end the chase.

    Animals getting stunned or the time run out. They will burn and fade away back into the ring.

    "Addons for the rings power can be adjusted to give animals more speed, or give different effections like Mangled,Oblivious,Exposed,Broken,Hindred,Blindness etc. For example. While patrolling/finding or Chasing."

    The idea for the Animal for Finding could be a Cool circus Bird. The Animal for Chase could be a Dog. The lethal Animal for the special power could be a Tiger.

    If you thing they all should be the same animal, I'm open to that. And also open for different ones, so survivors know wich power is in action.

    This is just the idea of the killers powers. I am open for things to change to make him balanced.

    A drawing of the Whip Master to get the idea visualized :3

    Instead of a perk that can kinda slow the killer. I would think it would be more fun if there were bear traps around the map, that survivors could pick up and trap places. And when the killer steps into one. It's just like when the trapper steps into his traps. Getting stunned and a animation to free himself.

    And ofc Survivors can trap themself if they step in one. Or maybe it should give away a 10meters distance to see the traps aura for the survivors.

    I guess it might take away the killer hunting the prey. More like hunter against hunter. But I love your idea! Since we get a Vampire very soon in game, why not a Werewolf!
