New SCP Concept: SCP-035

[Oralor]

I thought about a possible new SCP for the game and thought of this guy since he was in SCP: Containment Breach. Here's the basic rundown:

His main ability is to place puddles at his feet that sprouts a tentacle that attacks nearby players similarly to how 106 places portals. I thought of this because tentacles sprout in his containment chamber in SCP:CB. It despawns overtime, but can be killed. It's used to ward off players from going down hallways that lead to, say, the silo or checkpoints. How much health or damage can be decided.

SCP-035 himself would have moderate health and damage, but he'll have a catch that I feel is very cool: he has two separate health bars. His own health and a host body's health. What if his possessed body dies, forcing him to slither around on the ground, forcing him to take over another player's body by either crawling up to them or by flinging a tentacle from itself to latch onto another player. The player that's latched onto can either be instantly killed or be kept alive, but in a spectating position forced to watch through 035's eyes until he either gets killed or is willingly released.

An additional idea you can play with is that the player who is taken over will have their health slowly drained since 035's canonical hosts quickly decayed. If 035 leaves their body before they die, whatever health they have left remains. The way you kill 035 is by either doing head shots while it's on a player, which damages 035 less than normal damage, but leaves the player's body unharmed, or by shooting the mask while it's without a body, dealing normal damage.

Again, details can be played with, but I can see this as a neat addition.

035 has been blacklisted by the developers.

But feel free to discuss it, we can still change our mind someday

What if a body possessed by 035 is able to use items? That may make 035 more threatening if he manages to steal the body of a chaos insurgent or a mtf member.
I think 035 should also be able to possess dead bodies due to the wiki stating that he is able to possess anything humanoid like statues or mannequins

That would give all corpses a use rather than just those 049 can rez.

I feel like he could be added in a sense of if you go into his containment chamber or "if they were to add one" you will be dragged towards the object like 012 in Containment breach and you'll be forced to wear the mask than a spectator takes control of SCP 035, SCP 035 plays just like a humanoid except they are working for the SCP'S and if they're not any spectator's you take control of SCP 035

If I were to imagine 035 as an actual class, I'd say that he would start out as he was in Containment Breach, i.e., some random unlucky guy who is already possessed by the mask, that would eliminate the need for players to actually find and enable him.

Also, since his whole thing is corroding a room as well as possessing people, I would imagine gameplay for him would consist of attacking people in close range to get his goop on them, which eats at their HP a little, in addition to the attack itself doing damage. Also, his health should slowly deteriorate, as his corruption in SCP lore does effect the possessed body. As a counter to this, he should be able to possess other players by force by activating a special ability when in melee range of a human to forcibly place himself on their face, this would restore his health and "kill" the player he does it to, he could also do this on recently deceased victims, similar to how 049 can interact with them.
