#dbd chapter

Power

David uses the power Be One of Us, every time he hits a survivor his blood metre fills as his hunger sates, when the metre meets the first tier David can rush forward in one direction. Any survivor he hits directly will be downed and anyone hit by the recoil will be injured. When it hits the second tier David fly across the map (it has to be over 20 metres away but less than 40), jumping into the air and crashing down at certain points. He can’t be too close to a hook or generator and any survivor who may be hit loses a health state. When the metre is full David can bewitch a survivor into helping him, they must fight repeated skill checks until they’re free and any survivor within 15 metres of them will be revealed to David. If the afflicted survivor manages to touch another survivor they will grab onto them and hold them still for 10 seconds.

Weapon

His claws and fangs.

Load-Out

They’re Only Noodles, Michael

You have gained the ability to sabotage treasure chests by filling them with insects. By interacting with them for 9/6/3 seconds you can ensure that anyone who interacts with the treasure chest has their aura revealed to you for 10/15/20 seconds, is exposed for 10/15 seconds, and is blinded for 30 seconds.

Never Grow Old, Never Die

When the gates open any survivors that have managed to go the whole game without being hooked have their auras revealed to you and become exposed for 30/45/60 seconds.

Lost In The Shadows

The Entity controls the shadows, and if you stay in them for long enough you are rewarded. If you manage to spend the first 45/35/25 seconds of the trial without a survivor seeing you then the Entity rewards you. Any time you go unseen for more than 5/10/15 seconds without being seen you become undetectable, and fifty percent of blinding attempts fail.

Add-Ons

Motorcycle oil

Your always prepared for a long, hard ride. You can now see the aiming trail for the rush ability.

Chopstick

A billion Chinese people can’t be wrong. When you bewitch a survivor anyone they touch drips blood which fills up your blood metre.

Hotel Keyring

An old hotel keyring from the Hudson. Your blood is in the stone of Santa Carla, when your blood metre is 50% full you can hear the pulse of survivors travel through the rocks to gage how close they are.

Motorcycle Keys

A real biker wouldn’t go anywhere without his keys. You can now control your rush ability, giving you enough control to enable turning and drifting. Anyone who is within 15 metres of you when you rush is now weakened and their aura is revealed to you.

Michael’s Silver Earring

An earring you managed to rip from Michael’s ear when the deer antlers penetrated your shoulders. Some bonds can never be broken. One survivor is bewitched as the game begins, and every time a generator is completed another survivor becomes bewitched. The blood metre no longer rises beyond the second tier.

Survivor

Michael Emerson

Lore

Michael thought he was safe, he really did. They’d killed the head vampire and now there was nothing to worry about, that’s how it seemed for a year or so. Only when summer rolled back around everything was strange, it was a lot colder than last year with a thick fog around him that no one else seemed bothered by or even notice. No one told him that the blood deep in his veins might no longer make him one of the undead, but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t belong to the Entity.

Appearance

Perks

Bonded by Blood

David: It's too late! My blood is in your veins.

Michael: Oh, yeah? Well, guess what? So is mine!

Your blood isn’t quite the same as the other survivors, it drops 20/30/40% less and fades 20/30/40% faster.

Inquiring Minds Want to Know

Are you freebasing, Michael? Inquiring minds want to know. - Sam

All that time in Grandpa’s workshop gave you a pretty good idea on mechanics, fellow survivors who are fixing generators are revealed to you, if you’re within 10/20/30 metres of them they get a 20/30/40% boost in repair speed.

All The Damn Vampires

One thing about living in Santa Carla I never could stomach; all the damn vampires. - Grandpa

You know you were close to becoming one of the killers in this place, if you hadn’t been cured of vampirism, thankfully that means they almost don’t spot you as a survivor. Whenever you are repairing a generator as it finishes you get a token, a token that can be used to protect you from having your location detected if you are within the killer’s terror radius. If you finish the generators and have managed to get all five tokens then you are given Endurance for the rest of the game, the killer’s aura is revealed to you, and the time it takes for you to open the gate is cut in half.

Legendaries

Maxwell Lawrence is a The Blight legendary.

Star is a Kate Denson legendary.

Sam Emerson is a Renato Lyre legendary.

Alan Frog is a Jake Park legendary.

Edgar Frog is a Dwight Fairfield legendary.

Location: Santa Carla Boardwalk

Weapon

His close weapon is a bone saw, rusted with blood sticking to the blade still. His ranged weapon is a laser drill which causes survivors to experience Disorientation - a status effect which makes the surroundings blurry and sound out of sync. This can only be cured by being healed by another survivor.

Power

As a member of the undead Doctor Carl Hill can remove his limbs and they can move independently. If he removes his hands, his body is unable to attack survivors but they can scurry across the map completely undetectable and grab survivors immobilising them until they manage to rip the hands off of them (at a baseline this takes five seconds). They can also however hold lockers closed or sabotage generators. If he removes his head, he can place it high up and see through the eyes as his body acts in response to the orders from the head that watches. This is countered by survivors sneaking up on and crushing the body parts.

Load-Out

Hex: Master of Human Will

You’ve lobotomised and tortured enough patients to understand human psychology. Whenever survivors think they’ve outsmarted you, you have a way of coming out on top. Whenever a survivor drops a pallet, 20/40/60% of pallets and vaulting walls on the map are covered by the entity until the pallet is broken or moved.

Need a hand?

You’ve never been good at keeping your hands to yourself. Whenever you damage a generator, a part of you remains to track it, causing its aura to become yellow, the next survivor to fix it has your terror radius be transferred onto them for 25/35/45 seconds and you become undetectable.

Green With Envy

Your desire to covet the work of others is what drives you so intensely, especially in a world where death is neither permanent nor can be controlled by you. Whenever the Entity makes an appearance - whilst someone is on the hook or the Entity is blocking a generator gain Haste for 5/10/15 seconds.

Add-Ons

Broken Glass Vial

A reminder of how he’d failed to steal Doctor Herbert West’s formula, a stain of green still on the glass.

The laser drills fires 2.5% faster with a 15% shorter cooldown.

A Chewed Pencil

A standard yellow pencil that fills Doctor Hill with rage every time he looks upon it.

The time it takes for a survivor to rip the Head’s hands from their body is increased by 3 seconds.

Needle & Thread

A surgical needle and thread keeps the head and neck in place.

Whenever the body is separated, whoever is within 15 metres of the body part not currently being controlled has their aura revealed.

An Orbitoclast & Mallet

This medical instrument still has a smudge of blood on the hammer of the mallet and a chunk of brain matter at the tip of the orbitoclast.

Whenever someone tries to crush one of your hands or the head, poisonous blood explodes from the body part causing the survivor to become injured.

A Souvenir from Megan

A pair of delicate blue lace underwear, used and screwed into a ball, stolen from Megan Halsey.

Everyone starts the trial suffering from Disorientation. When all the generators are finished, everyone is inflicted with Disorientation for a second time.

The laser drill cannot be used.

Survivors

Herbert West

Lore

When The Head is taken into the realm, the Entity calls out to anyone who is touched by the Reagent. When Doctor Herbert West becomes determined to begin using the Reagent again to find the perfect wife, that’s when the Entity uses it as a hook to drag him into its world.

Appearance

Doctor West’s Home Brew

“I gave him life!” - Herbert West

If you hide in a locker with a medkit for 45/35/25 seconds you create the Re-Agent. This can be made once per match, when given to a fellow survivor close to death it will fully heal them and allow them to regain a life. However, you are broken from crafting the Re-Agent.

He Has A Good Head On His Shoulders

And another one on his desk.

You’re an extraordinarily intelligent man with a fascination for the human body, you know enough about blood to know how to disguise it. You drop 30/40/50% less blood. You can even choose where to leave some blood splatters and where not to.

Here Kitty Kitty

“And what would a note say, Dan? "Cat dead, details later"? I knew you were fond of it.” - Herbert West

You’ve taken down hunters before, even if they were much smaller than this. When you are about to be hooked for the first time you are given a very tough/tough/standard skill check, if you succeed you can hit the killer causing them to drop you, and be themselves stunned.

Dan Cain

Lore

Doctor Dan Cain didn’t know what happened when fog filled their home, but when Herbert West put down the reagent and began walking into the fog and seemingly through what was the wall… He knew he had to go through it, whether the Entity had intended it to take both of them or not.

Appearance

Hopeless Romantic

Dan Cain: What? He's dead?

Herbert West: Not anymore he isn’t.

Dan Cain: Herbert! This has got to stop.

The devotion to your loved ones is admirable, and as misplaced as it is your grip will never be broken. You have no chance of being the obsession, but you and the obsession are inherently connected. They gain 15/30/40% of your blood points and you gain 15/30/40% of theirs. If they are healed, you are also healed at 30/40/50% speed. However, you also feel their pain. If they are hit you are broken for 45/35/25 seconds.

This Cat Bites Back

Dan Cain: He couldn't have been dead!

Herbert West: Do you agree that he's dead now?

[Picks up cat's body and drops it onto table]

Herbert West: Do you agree that he's dead now?

You are not quite the pushover people think you are. If the killer inflicts a status effect on you they are stunned, you are invulnerable for 3 seconds, and you are undetectable for 5 seconds.

Doctor of Free Will

“I know your work, Dr. Hill. Quite well. Your theory on the location of the will in the brain is... interesting. Though derivative of Dr. Gruber's research in the early 70s. So derivative in fact in Europe it's considered plagiarized.” - Herbert West

How much of the trial is your own choice and what is the Entity’s? How much free will do you have? When you’re on the hook and the entity’s tendrils start to appear you are given one/two/three skill check(s), if you pass you manage to push death away by 10/15/20 seconds.

Location

Dan Cain & Herbert West’s apartment building, complete with Rufus the cat in the basement.

Weapon: Buck 120 Hunting Knife

Ranged Weapon: Beretta 92FS 9mm Pistol

This weapon has six bullets which can be shot per game, they injure a survivor on impact and any survivors in a five metre radius are revealed through Killer Instinct.

Power: Mimicry

A killer’s ability is randomly chosen at the beginning of the game, and is adapted for The Silence. If you have perks from another killer it higher the chance of that killer being chosen. For abilities that are item specific (example Deathslinger’s) it is adapted to be used with the Silence’s gun.

Perks

Psycho’s Only

“Now you’ve just given me this weird German stand in that everybody hates!” - David Arquette

There’s no replacement for the real thing. Whenever a survivor causes a noise alert (or a scream), they lare revealed to you for 5/10/15 seconds, if it is a trick noise they are exposed for 2/3/4 seconds.

Hex: Silence is Silver

“I can’t escape the silver screen!” - The Shower Scene, Ice Nine Kills

There are four hex totems lit on the map, and in a 10/15/20 metre radius of said totems the killer is rendered completely silent, no chase music begins and neither does a sound denoting their radius. When dulled Totems can be relit once/twice/thrice.

No New Stories in Horrorwood

“How’s this for an establishing shot?” - Welcome to Horrorwood, Ice Nine Kills

At the start of the game you are given as many tokens as you have different killer’s perks equipped. You also gain a token every time the survivors finish a generator. For every token every survivor ability takes an extra 1/1.5/2 seconds, and when the final gate is being opened it adds an extra 2/3/4 seconds for every token collected by the killer.

Add-Ons

Newspaper clipping

An article about the gun found at the scene of the murders of Spencer Charnas’s parents. An altered magazine is added to the Beretta pistol allowing for three extra bullets.

A vial of corn syrup / A Joker card / A small black hat

Several movie props taken for performances. Mimicry is more likely to be a stealth killer. / Mimicry is more likely to be a ranged killer. / Mimicry is more likely to be a rush killer.

Foam axe

Patrick Bateman can hit further. Basic attacks now have the same range as lunged attacks, and lunged attacks are 5% longer.

Guitar pick

Your chase/radius music now mimics the killer you are mimicking. This add-on becomes a random add-on from said killer’s collection.

VIP INK Tour Lanyard

Mimicry now gives you two abilities from two different killers. For example, the Redeemer from the Deathslinger, and Stealth mode of Ghostface. Your Beretta pistol now only has two bullets.

Spencer Charnas’ death certificate
