Everything in written format:

-ORIGINAL KILLER CONCEPT: THE SIMIAN

All numerical values are provisional and open to balance feedback.

KILLER POWER: PRIMAL POUNCE

While vaulting a Window, press and hold [SPACE] to cling to the ledge and remain in place.

Press [LMB] to launch The Simian forward, pinning and injuring any Survivor hit.

Colliding with an obstacle or failing to hit a Survivor causes The Simian to enter a brief cooldown, similar to the cooldown of a missed Basic Attack.

SPECIAL ABILITY: SAVAGE HURL

Press the Power button while standing over a dropped Pallet to pick it up.

Press the Power button again to hurl the Pallet forward. Survivors struck by the Pallet lose one Health State.

A thrown Pallet damages Survivors within a small area upon impact and can hit multiple Survivors.

UNIQUE PERKS

WILD CALL

Periodically, you scream and reveal your location.

Survivors within 16/24/32 meters scream in response and reveal their Aura for 2/3/4 seconds.

KING OF THE JUNGLE

Each time you injure a Survivor, gain 1 Token.

Each Token increases the range of your Lunge Attack by 5/7/10%.

MONKEY BUSINESS

After vaulting a Window, Monkey Business activates for 4/6/10 seconds.

While active, press the Vault button while facing a dropped Pallet to vault over it.

After vaulting a dropped Pallet, Monkey Business deactivates and goes on cooldown for 90/70/60 seconds.
