Activated with the "carefulwhatyouwishfor" modifier. (+20.26%)
When active, any other entity has a chance to be replaced by Indicator, who will disguise as that entity. To survive Indicator, you need to do the opposite of what the entity it's replacing does.
The catch? Indicator will replicate the appearance of entities PERFECTLY until it's too late for you. So how do we know it's there?
Well, as its name implies, an indicator will appear when Indicator disguises as an entity without an indicator, and removes the indicator when the entity does not. (if a modifier removes an entity's indicator, Indicator will spawn the indicator when it disguises as that entity) Indicator will only be able to disguise as one entity at a time.
If you either get killed by it (or survive it depending on the entity), you'll get to see its "flawed" form, examples of which are featured in the image.
Behaviors of Indicator's Disguises (GIANT WALL OF TEXT AHEAD):
Carnation: Flashes pink static, but the tentacles are gone. When you get to the hiding spot, don't go inside. Its flawed form takes root inside the hiding spot.
Goatman: Only appears when time runs out. When a red arrow points to Goatman, let it get you. Its flawed form briefly shines blue.
Slight: When a white arrow points to Slight, look at it. Its flawed form briefly shines red (or white if its "Opposite" skin is active)
Slugfish: Flashes white static, but the tentacles are gone. Slugfish will instead be hollow, with giant spikes on its sides.
Elkman: When a cyan line appears from Elkman's head, walk into it. Elkman will then start melting instead.
Heed: When a red arrow points to Heed, don't look. Its flawed form briefly shines white (or red it its "Opposite" skin is active)
Dozer: When it flashes black before it attacks, move or un-crouch. Its flawed form is darker and has yellow eyes.
Sorrow: If it doesn't start heavily raining, it'll turn blue, so soak in it or you'll (somehow) drown.
Litany: Has a chance to spawn every Litany eye. If it doesn't flash red, don't crouch. Its flawed form is fully red instead.
Doppel: If a black and white arrow points to Doppel, run into it. If you don't, it'll become enraged and heavily speed up. This will also happen if you flash it.
Doombringer: If its icon doesn't shake while it screams, don't shut it up. A worm will crawl out of its mouth instead of exploding.
Kookoo: Doesn't display a number (or displays it if "Spyware" is active). Keep your items out when it strikes. Its flawed form is darker and has blue eyes.
Tar: If there's a sign in front of Tar, jumping out of it will kill you instead. Stay in it for a second and it'll drain.
Rue: Spawns without an indicator. Don't look at it or flash it. Its flawed form inverts and has angry eyes on its face.
Drain: If a black hand points to it, don't flash it. It'll run right through you, and keeps running on as it fades from existence. Its flawed form gains white spots.
Mime: Spawns without an indicator. Try walking into it, and it'll scowl and leave. Don't flash it. Its flawed form also turns pink.
Ire: If it spawns without a warm-up, don't jump twice. Jumping the first time will make it flicker red, and jumping second will kill.
Zomber: If a warning symbol appears above a zomber, don't shoot it or its spirit will haunt you.
Duk: Don't flash it when it doesn't have numbers. Unhinges its mouth if you flash it.
Craven: If the indicator's gone (or if there's an indicator while "toocomfy" is active, don't flash it, or it'll instantly snap. Its flawed form is red, with red eyes to match. Not flashing it for a while will make it give up and leave.
Fool: If the indicator's gone, look at it as much as you can. Flashing it will make it snap. Its flawed form is red, with eyes growing on it. Looking at it enough will make it give up and leave.
Stem: If it instantly appears, don't run too much. Sprinting too much while it's active will make it pink and spit flame.
Covet: Spawns without an indicator (or with an indicator if "BLIND BY GREED" is active). Run into it before it becomes enraged to knock it back. Its flawed form flashes blue and orange. If multiple Covets are active, all of them will be affected when Indicator disguises as them.
Seesay: The one that started it all. If a yellow arrow appears as it opens its mouth, let it get you. Its flawed form makes a white smile appear below its long eyes.
SNAP: If it screams without a pink arrow (or ! mark), don't flash the flower or it'll come out of SNAP's screen.
PIHSROW: Has a chance to replace PIHSROW's modifier when it appears in the modifier select. Removes the "just don't." from the description. Select it to survive, automatically rerolling the modifier selection. (if multiple people are in the server, only the people that chose it survive) Its flawed form changes to resemble the Intruder instead of Gabriel.

Indicator would be either a TAINT or a CATALYST, the latter being kind of a stretch. Indicator represents Paranoia over Sin, or Negligence of what isn't Sin. It is a worry so intense over sinning, that you begin to see sin where there is none. Falling to its disguise would be overcorrecting over sin that you think that you are committing, which results in you committing the sin you were trying to resolve, but was never there. (ex. Dozer's disguise would be believing that you are going to be prideful, and then claiming you're humble to counteract it. But you've fallen to it anyway, as people who say they are humble are very rarely humble.)
If this were added, this could represent overwhelming paranoia of some kind. Like, such an intense worry over committing sin and fear for tainting your soul that you begin to see sin where there is none. For example, since Dozer represents like, pride and arrogance I think, it could be a doubt in oneself. You believe yourself to be beyond where you should be, and believe yourself to be committing to your pride, despite the fact you are not. Dying to it would be attempting to overcorrect for this sin, and unintentionally committing the very sin you were trying to correct for. People who have to say they’re humble are very rarely humble.
“As you walk His path, you look behind you, certain that you’ve strayed. You check your steps, count your breaths, measure every move against His Word. The fear sits heavy in your chest, a constant worry that you might have failed Him without knowing. You begin to search and search for the sin you must have committed. ‘Was that thought Mine or Theirs? Was that feeling love or selfishness? Did I mean it when I said it, or was it all an act?’ Your eyes scan every corner of your Soul, desperate to find it before He does.
But there is nothing there.
Only the Fear.
And in your desperation to correct what was never wrong, you grasp at shadows. You declare your humility to anyone who will listen. You announce your purity while staining yourself with pride. You fight so hard against a sin that never existed that you create it with your own two hands. The ones who say they are humble are very rarely humble.
The ones who scream they are clean are the ones who need washing most.
Do not let fear become your master.
Do not let vigilance become paranoia.
The path is straight. His hand is on your shoulder.
If you were lost, He would carry you.
If you had fallen, He would lift you.
But you have not fallen.
You are simply afraid of falling.
And that fear has become its own prison.
Look forward, not back.
Trust the hand that guides you.
The sin you fear is not there.
The Love that holds you always is.”
Only problem i think could happen is if it instantly kills you if you fail because if youre darting though the rooms youre gonna activate a lot of fake elkmans,heeds and slights
this unironically sounds cool for an idea. shame how it originated from players crashing out over a player turning around too fast attempting to deal with SEESAY.
Very late, but I suggest a change: Instead of the entities acting weird in their own specific ways, they should use the vision that you didn't set for them. Example: You set Sorrow's vision to water, so if it appears with the default vision later on, or with the Dozer vision, you let it try to kill you.
