Banshee: Fan made chapter.

2/24/2025 Important note.

This fan-made work of mine, while having a soft place in my heart, is quite outdated, mainly the spelling, story-telling, and overall level of English it has as a whole.

At the moment I'm working on a remake of this fan-made chapter, but while I work on it I wanted to leave this notice here.

Banshee's lore.

While taking care of her daughter Laura Aoife and her dog Brisco. When her daughter turned 17, she gifted her a red Bracelet, which her daughter hold on to with alot of love. Everything seemed to be going well in the village. Until one day... When Ruth left her house to go help a woman who was about to give birth, the tragedy occurred. The door to her house was found wide open. Laura and Brisco where nowhere to be found. She realized that her daughter went deep into the forest. In desperation, She reached out for the villagers asking them for help to search for Laura. But they were to scared to go into the forest "It's a death sentence to go out there!" They said. Ruth's anger was only beat by the desperation, of knowing that her daughter was in the forest, without thinking, she went to search her daughter by herself. After an hour searching for her, She followed some tracks along the forest and eventually found her daughter's Bracelet near the entrance of a cave. She slowly crawled inside. She could swear her heart was about to explode because of how fast it was beating. She called out for Laura, whispering. And nothing. making her way deeper inside, she found Brisco, dismembered and torn apart. She ventured even deeper. sweating, head spinning. Then she heard a muffled cry, coming from deeper in the cave. Ruth entered a larger section of the cave. In the pitch darkness, she saw a Silhouette, on the ground, slowly approaching to it, her worst nightmare became reality, as Laura was on the ground, Her body torn apart, one of her arms missing, One of her legs was broken. With multiple wounds around her body. Laura was almost unconscious, almost dead, She only cried, dying. When Ruth saw her daughter in that state, she screamed... A scream so loud that echoed throughout all of the forest. And then, a roar. In the darkness there was something big, hiding, ready to ambush. As soon as Ruth screamed, the beast attacked her.
Claws slashed her back. She fell into the floor and turn around only to see a giant black bear attacking her with an animal frenzy. The gigant bear starting breaking her legs apart, destroying her bones, Carving through her flesh, Everything was soft and the bear's claws were hard as steel.
She screamed and screamed. But not because of the pain... But because of what became of her daughter.

A group of men grabbed her by her shoulders and managed to bring her back to her house, without even caring to help her clean her hands, now full with the dirt of the grave of her own daughter. Day and night all she did was crying. One day. Two days. One week. People couldn't deal with it no longer. They gattered in a group, and started planning. "I don't care about her knowledge in medicine anymore! I can't ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ sleep at night!" Someone yelled... "Let's just throw her into the forest!" People talked and planned, how to get rid of that poor woman. Then, one day, they finally decided "Burn her house down". And so it was done... People gattered around Ruth's house, Ready to get rid of this problem. Ruth looked through her window in horror, as they barricated the exit, and trapped her in her own house, starting a fire, ready to turn her into ashes. While trying to get out, she fell from her wheelchair, hitting her head, as the fire grew and she was losing consciousness, a dark mist, with dark promises, offered a deal, that she accepted.

The end.

I hope you all liked my idea for a chapter! I had this idea for a very long time now. The idea of a Banshee with a power to reveal and scare survivors, Thank you so much for reading this!

[Hiki ♡]

I learned alot since I wrote that, I completly remade the lore with better english and stuff, thankies for the constructive feedback!

[Classicnote]

It looks better now. I don't think "pain mother needs a restriction" Probably be only useful for quick inspection in case you got one of those flash light survivors near you. It would probably replace infectious fright. Unless it's only for the survivor you hit to assist with tracking.

[Midnight Flame]

We already have the Banshee. Wraith

[Hiki ♡]

I can make it not be able to stack? I really like that idea and i don't want to remove it :,(

[Classicnote]

You put a lot into this. Seems well thought out. My only issue would be "Hypnotic singing:
Your presence is hypnotic towards the survivors, when they are in your terror radius, they will not receive the warning sound of the skillchecks." Almost like Lullaby from the Huntress. At least Lullaby is a hex despite it being global. Hypnotic can be a bit too power when mix with other perks like Unnerving presence. Throw that on the doctor and you'll see survivors d/c quickly xD

[Necro]

This is pretty awesome.
Submit this so I can get killed by her one day. :D

[Hiki ♡]

Aww thanks :3

[Enty :3]

This is amazing.
Submit it to the creators of DbD. I want to see The Banshee in game.

[Fentbob Ketaminepants]

THE WRAITH WAS GONNA BE A FEMALE????

[Hiki ♡]

No, Banshee was the Alpha name of the Wraith, still, I don't see why that would be a problem xD.
