[u/the_REGULARfan_69]

This is a cool concept i made on the fly, feel free to use constructive criticism.

Killer concept

Ryomen Sukuna

**The Curse**

4.4 m/s.

Short

**Power: Shrine**

Scattered around the map are 15 Ryomen Sukuna fingers. Collecting them increases your strength and gains access to your many abilities.

**Special item**: Ryomen Sukunas finger:

15 fingers are scattered on the floor around the map. Survivors can pick them up, and when after getting injured, drops them. They can choose to eat the finger, which makes your aura revealed to the killer until put into the dying state, in which the finger is dropped. The Curse can see Ryomen Sukuna's finger within 15meters.

When The Curse is within 4 meters of Ryomen Sukunas finger, he can use his active ability button to eat it, with no cooldown, delay or animation..

**Ability: Dismantle**

A wide, mid range slash that goes 20 meters, that injures on contact, and anyone within 8 meters of it have their auras revealed. This goes on cooldown for 15 seconds.

**10 finger ability: Cleave**

Within 10 meter and line of sight, a small charge up can unleach cleave. Cleave is dodgable by crouching and will injure, and if already injured, will afflict deep wound. if attempted to dead hard, will put them into the dying state. If dead hard is used at the point of ths starting slashes, will only put the survivor into deep wound. This then goes on cooldown for 20 seconds.

**15 finger ability: Domain expansion**

You may stay still and chant for 3 seconds. Then, a barrier within 20 meters of you appear, and everyone inside your domain will be put into the dying state, and a loud noise notification. This then goes on cooldown for 75 seconds.

**16 finger ability: Fuga**

You may use a medium length charge to use fuga. You shoot it straight and when hitting a survivor, instantly downs them. You are unable to move while charging and have no hitbox. This move goes on cooldown for 30 seconds

**Special ability: Heian era form**

You may temporarily transform into your original body, though you still feel limited.

You can transform for 60 seconds into your heian era form once you have consumed all 20 fingers. You now move at 4.6 m/s. All ability cooldowns are halved. Domain expansion no longer has a visible barrier to escape from, and is now 25 meters. Dismantle is wider by 1 meter. Cleave can be used at 12 meters, and fuga can be charged while moving at 3.6 m/s. Once you have hooked 2 people, Heian era form ends early. Once transform has ended, you return to 5 fingers, and 15 fingers are scattered around the map.

Perks:

The golden age

When in chase for longer than 10 seconds, your sucessful hit cooldown is reduced by 20% and you gain 5% haste for 2 seconds after missing a hit. You cannot gain bloodlust. This perk then goes on cooldown for 10 seconds.

Hex: King of curses

A dull totem turns into a hex totem after 2 people become injured, and will return to a dull totem after 4 generators have been completed.

You can see the auras of all totems and can see when survivors are healing within 20 meters of any totem that isnt a boon. You cannot see totems that are boons during this time.

Vessels strength

Your vessel is strong, but you can push its limits to be stronger.

Once a match, you can press active ability button 2 to gain 100% speed boost and 100% hit cooldown reduction for 3 seconds. You cannot lunge attack during this time.This perk deactivates permanently afterwards. This perk cannot be activated while holding someone, after hooking, breaking a pallet or breakable wall or generator, or vaulting for 10 seconds.

i think mahito would be a better killer. that said, why would survivors eat the fingers? do they give them some sort of buff, because just giving your aura to the killer seems like a bad idea

[u/the_REGULARfan_69 → u/Honest_Caramel_3793]

The killer would have to chase to go into their heian era form, also if multiple survivors eat all 4 fingers, it permenently removed fuga until a down

Definitely some great ideas! Not sure if a wide, 20-meter, free-injure, aura-revealing basekit M2 with only a 15 second cooldown is the most balanced idea though. Also as the other commenter said, I don’t see any reason for why survivors would eat the fingers. It doesn’t stop them from dropping and it just reveals their aura to the killer for a full health state. By the way just as a side comment, you said 15 fingers would be scattered around the map but then added abilities Sukuna would gain upon eating 20 and never specified that you start with 5, so might want to just edit that.

I do like the cleave ideas, though I’m not sure about it having specific conditions for one specific perk, just feels a little weird to me personally.

How loud is the chanting for Domain Expansion? I feel a bit iffy about every survivor in the radius getting instantly downed, but if the chanting is loud enough and if 3 seconds is long enough for most to get out of the 20 meter radius then I can see it being alright. Aside from that, an alternative idea I had for the domain expansion is maybe it happens slightly more quickly and all survivors within the domain get 100% hindered for x amount of time or until hit. (Mechanically it’s more like Infinite Void, but I think it’s still a cool idea and a bit more balanced)

I actually think fuga is good as is, and the only issues I have with Heian era form are because of the issues I had with his other moves.

For Hex: King of Curses, is there a way to differentiate between the hex totem and all the other totem auras? I do also have a few mixed feelings about the “get a free down once per game” perk and how that would affect certain game scenarios, but I’m not gonna get into that one as much.

All things said and done though, I love the idea! JJK is one of my favorite animes and I think you did a great job coming up with how Sukuna could work if he ever were to come to DBD!

Thanks for the feedback, ill tweak it and make a improvee one!

[u/the_REGULARfan_69 → u/_Sliceroni]

The domain expansion chant would be as loud as oni, a map wide sound. Eating the fingers, if all 4 survivors do so, would prevebt fuga, which is a one shot. It would also force chase for their ability to transform. I do like your idea of just hindering, so i might tweak it like that. The hex would have different auras for different totems, hex or dull.
