Title: [Killer Concept] The Executive: Where fear is an asset and life has a price
LORE: The Final Liquidation
Arthur Vane wasn't born a monster; he was born an architect of dreams. He founded Vane Dynamics with the conviction that technology and human management could eradicate poverty. For a decade, his company was a beacon of hope. But the business world does not forgive kindness. His competitors, Omni-Core, orchestrated a dirty war, stealing his patents, fabricating fraud charges, and bribing his most loyal employees.
Arthur was betrayed by his own board of directors and left alone in his 50th-floor office, watching his legacy crumble. That night, under the rain, Arthur realized the truth: morality is an operational weakness. He decided that if the market rewarded cruelty, he would become the pinnacle of it.
He began "cleaning" his company: an "accidental" fire in the boardroom eliminated his traitors. Then, he dismantled Omni-Core through blackmail and traps that drove his rivals to total ruin. His sadism wasn't impulsive; it was administrative. He turned his remaining employees into test subjects, optimizing their performance under extreme stress. By the time the Fog claimed his skyscraper, Arthur wasn't fleeing; he was finishing a quarterly performance report, surrounded by the corpses of those who dared to question his authority. The Entity saw in him the perfect manager: someone capable of turning human suffering into a metric of infinite efficiency.
POWER: Corporate Structure
Arthur Vane moves at a base speed of 4.4 m/s. His briefcase is his tool of audit.
Performance Audit: Arthur reveals the aura of any survivor who performs an "Excellent Skill Check" for 5 seconds. No employee stands out without being observed.
Administrative Pressure (24m Terror Radius): Within his terror radius, the Great Skill Check zones are drastically reduced. If an employee fails, the generator explodes (-5% progress) and the survivor becomes "Marked for Audit" (aura revealed for 10s).
Audit Computers: There are 3 computers on the map. Survivors can "Rewrite their Contract" (takes 80s). This removes all debuffs, but Arthur is instantly notified and sees the aura of the user throughout the process.
Closing Mechanic (No Labor Exit): When all 5 generators are completed, Arthur enters "Executive Fury." The exit gates are blocked for 180 seconds, and Arthur receives a movement speed increase to 5.0 m/s. The final audit has begun.
Mori: Final Outsourcing: Arthur makes a call: "Immediate contract termination required. Proceed." Arthur turns and walks away while one of your 5 most-used Killers appears from the Fog to perform their personal Mori. Once complete, Arthur approaches, opens his briefcase, and hands the subcontracted Killer a wad of blood-stained cash (compensation), then throws another wad over the survivor’s body as a final insult.
PERKS: Corporate Culture
Payroll Deduction: Passive 10% penalty to all survivor actions. For every survivor hooked, penalty increases by +2% (max 18%).
Quote: "Time is the only asset we cannot afford to lose. Discount applied."
Culture of Fear: Upon hooking a survivor, the generator with the most progress explodes (-10%) and survivors within 32m scream, revealing their position for 4s.
Quote: "An error in accounting affects the entire chain of command."
Exclusive Clause: If a survivor performs a "high-performance" action (fast vault, sabotage, healing), they become "In Breach": aura revealed for 10s, speed permanently reduced by 25%, and item confiscated by the Entity.
Quote: "Talent is an asset, but insubordination is a liability."
MAP: Vane Dynamics Tower
A two-story, labyrinthine, cold, and brutalist skyscraper. The verticality and glass corridors make Arthur’s terror radius a constant, inescapable threat.
(Author's Note: Arthur Vane is a HIGH DIFFICULTY Killer. His management requires administrative control of the map; it is not enough to know how to chase, you must know how to manage the match's resources.)
