Doll Master

This would be really cool killer, he could place his dolls on pallets, windows, gens, lockers as a trap, when survivor triggers it it explodes after 3 seconds. If survivor runs away it reveals his position for 5 seconds. Also doll master should drop dolls that will patrol the area and reveal survivors position to killer. Please comment if you like it or not

    First part yes , second part no.

    Slightly simular to a Puppet Master I've suggested a couple times in the past year. Except I'd have the dolls/puppets work as follows.

    They should have a default behavior that allows them to act as stationary spies that give the survivor's aura to the killer. Survivors can destroy them by cleansing. When armed with addins, their behavior changes. They come alive and attach themselves to the survivor to do certain things depending on the addon. When attached to the survivor, they emit a tiny terror radius designed to confuse the survivors and his teammates. Attached dolls can only be removed by a teammate. Dolls with attachment addins lose the ability to give away survivor auras. Killer should get a notification when a doll attaches itself to a survivor.

    The addins I evision can do things like

    • Make skill checks harder
    • Make navigation slightly more difficult (you know how a suvivor's wiggle can mess with a killer's ability to navigate slightly? Same thing)
    • Make channel actions like cleansing, repairs, and heals slower
    • Rare addin I evision is kinda complicated, but stay with me on this. If killer is within a certain distance of a survivor with a doll that he can see, he can start a channel action that causes the killer to stop moving - but he can cause the doll to start pulling the survivor in a direction he desires. The survivor can FIGHT this in the same way the characters in Left 4 Dead 2 can fight the Jockey that hops on their head. Same process. While they cannot stop the movement the killer wants to move them in, they can affect their trajectory to get hung up on objects until the channel ends

    BTW LukaKovac, you post a lot of these with very little in the way of background on the killer.

    Look at what I have for my Puppetmaster - much more fleshed out and detailed.

    If you want your suggestions to be taken more seriously, you should put more thought into it.
