Killer:
Killer: The Cyborg

Art piece by DarkCloud013 https://www.deviantart.com/darkcloud013

Name: Theon
Age: 39
Gender: Male
Hair Colour: Black
Eye colour: Green
Power: Drones
Weapon: Inbuilt machete. Like a switchblade
Speed: 115%
Terror radius: 32 m.
Origin: America.



Background:

Theon was a special force operator during the war. He knew what to do, and he did it well. Theon had no interest in the war in and of itself. He only wanted to go home to his family and be at peace, but right now in the field he knew he was needed. On a cold fatal night, their base was under attack. Explosions left and right. Theon stood up quickly and ran for the stairs, as he saw the enemy right there before him holding a grenade. As the enemy would throw the grenade towards the building, without thinking twice Theon would jump to cover the grenade with his body. The sound of the blast was heard throughout the base and no one survived.

Or so it was told in the news. Theon awoke weak in a lab. Cables inserted left and right inside his new robotic limbs. Theon tried to tog free from the operation table, but it was futile. As he looked around he saw other people like him. Slowly losing their minds and becoming AI controlled war machines. Fitted with guns and weapons. On screens he could see an announcement about the base attack and numerous other soldiers,who were all pronounced dead. Including him.

Theon got consumed by rage. His eyes bursting with a fiery red glow, as the sedations could no longer hold him back. He sprung up, breaking his bindings, extending out a blade from underneath his arm and swung it towards the closest scientist, before he then controlled the drones in the room to do his bidding, as he made his way out of the bunker. With his new found power, bloodlust and rage, he ventured on, but only to be taken by a great fog.
Killer Power:
Killer power: Drones.

The killer starts the game with 7 pre-placed drone nests around the map, each of them spawning mechanical drones that will cover a small/medium sized area,
survivors who stay longer than 30 seconds in the area of a drone will give the killer a notification with aura reading for 5 seconds.

If survivors find the nest, they are able to turn off the sensor system for that drone for a duration of 1.25 minutes, before resetting itself.


The cyborg can also send orders to the drone nests, a slow down order that lets the drones latch onto a survivor inside the area. Even if radar is turned off from nests. Killer needs to be in a certain distance for each order

if 2 drones latch onto a survivor the killer gets notified.


once 3 drones latched onto a survivor they are slowed down for 7 seconds,


then there's an attack order, same principle, but it requires 4 drones to latch onto a survivor in order to make them lose a health state


survivors can get rid of drones if they outrun it for long enough, or get help from another survivor.

on top of that, the cyborg is able to throw out 1 drone by himself with a 20 second recharge time


if it connects with a survivor, it'll stay latched longer than the drones from a nest,
and it helps achieve the required number for the desired order that they're currently tasked with.

(sorry it’s a mouthful, and it may need some balance tweaks)

Mori: Burns the survivor with laser eyes.
Killer Perks:
1. Hush:
You've learned that the quiet approach sometimes works best. Your passive killer noises are 50%/60%/75% Quieter.
You also no longer make noise when executing the break action.

2. Heresy:
The sacrificial hooks are sacred to the entity. interlopers who interrupt the ritual must be punished. When any survivor sabotages a hook nearby you, they become Exposed for 25 seconds, and you see their Aura for 2/3/5 seconds.

3. Oblivion:
Those who willingly deny the truth are deemed to die ignorant. Survivors are Oblivious while inside a locker. Both the Blindness and Oblivious effects from Lockers persist for 15/25/35 seconds after they leave.

Thanks to 「Meme Feline」 for the help with some of these.
Survivor:
New survivor:







Name: Veronica
Age: 27
Gender: Female
Hair Colour: Black with dyed red.
Eye colour: Dark brown
Origin: France.

Background:

Veronica was part of a ragtag team of people who did bank heists around Europe, until one heist where everything went wrong, as she was the only fortunate member who was able to escape without getting caught by the police.


She would lay low for a couple years, living off of the money from the previous successful heists they had pulled off. Years went by and she would find a job as an art curator in a museum down in Berlin. She had a lot of information regarding the black market auctions for rare arts being auctioned off to rich buyers.


From this info she would track down the buyers, finding their address and where they kept these goods, as she planned ways to steal them back and once she got them she would donate them to the museum she works at, but under false names as she does this to atone for her past deeds. One night as she sneaked inside one of the art buyer's mansion and was about to pick the lock to the safe she would get clouded inside the mist and find herself in the entity's world.

Survivor Perks:
1. On the run:
After you unhook another player, the person you saved gain a small sprint burst that lasts 2/3/4 seconds.

2. No time to waste:
You’re able to unhook another survivor without being interrupted. Unhooks survivors 1%/2%/3% faster. Can only be performed two times. Must complete one generator before the perk is active.

Grabs will be ignored and any hit will give the survivor the bleeding status. Forcing them to mend afterwards.

The perk gets disabled during endgame collapse or when all 5 gens are finished.

3. Quick Swipe:
You open chests 80/85/95% faster and receive a 400% blood point bonus from all chests.
Map:
New map:
Since we didn't get a neon alley map with Trickster. I thought i'd just include one here.
Notes:
Thanks for reading. This is just a concept idea I had for a chapter I would like to see. Whether or not a cyborg would fit into Dead By Daylight can be different from person to person.Some would like it, some will not, and that's totally fair.

Special thanks to Ludwig and Vioren with the help of some of this.

If you liked this concept chapter, and wish to see my other ones, you can do so here. It's completely optional, but I do appreciate it a lot.

good idea but the perk are way to under powered

Yeah, if you tunnel maybe. I do understand the worry, but I do think you're overexaggerating a little. In anycase.

1. burrowed time only works on the person just saved, and the time has been shortened with the newest update.

2. Is max 4 seconds of a little burst.

3. Is mid hooking animation. You can still hit them and they will have to do the mending animation. Legit, if you just wait for them to finish the animation you can knock them down. It's just an assured way to get the other off.

This is just a concept thankfully.

Running Borrowed timed, On the run, and No time to waste will prevent any killer from getting kills regardless of rank.

it would be cool if e got a sci fi killer it would be new from the supernatural monsters and ordanary killers

Sounds like a good idea, much better than the official crap that's been released lately, especially that hideous pop-idol.

Devs need to make this game more creepy, sinister, and scary. Add scary creepy killers like the one in this post (or terminator perhaps) instead of adding bullshit killers like the recent kpop one.

Yeah, good idea, but the devs are busy making shitty killers like the Kpop one
