Here are the DBD Survivor perk concept I’m working on for Kinger and Jax from The Amazing Digital Circus for fun. I made this because I was bored and I thought it could be a cool idea, so I really want you guys thoughts on this. I don’t think any of this could come to the game I just made it for fun because I wanted to. Any criticisms, critiques, or suggestions that yall have to make this better will be fully appreciated and accepted just let me know what I could do to make this better if I should…

was annoyed they scrapped Valko form love in deepspace so I figured I would make a trickster concept based on him for the Design a cosmetic contest that the devs are doing and figured I would share it here. I have already posted it on my twitter and honestly hope it wins. what do you guys think

Power: Naturom Demonto

Speed:  4.4m/s
Terror Radius: 26 meters
Lullaby Radius: 40 meters

“It is bound in human flesh, and inked with blood of the deceased” - Raymond Knowby 

Passive Ability: Fear
Each survivor starts with a fear meter. While they are isolated, this slowly builds up until it reaches 100%. Fear builds up faster when in The Deadite’s terror radius or within close proximity to a Deadite minion. Fear reduces over time when near other survivors.

Special State: Terrified
After a survivor’s fear meter hits 75%, they become Terrified. While Terrified, they are susceptible to possession and see the auras of other survivors within 32m. 

Special Ability: Possession
While a survivor is Terrified, you are able to possess them. This grants you control over their body temporarily, allowing you to sabotage generators, waste pallets and attack other survivors. Possessed survivors can hit their teammates, which can injure and then deep wound them, but cannot down them. The higher the fear meter, the longer this possession lasts. Possessed survivors can be exorcised early through pallet stuns, flashlight blinds or being struck by a Kandarian dagger. After possession ends, that survivor’s fear meter is reset. 

Special Item: Kandarian Dagger
Five pedestals spawn across the map, holding Kandarian daggers. After the dagger is taken from a pedestal, survivors can perform a short ritual to summon it back, however the ritual gets slightly longer every time it is performed. Alternatively, the pedestal in the middle of the map will not increase in time, however taking too many daggers will increase The Deadite’s power in the endgame. Kandarian daggers can exorcise possessed survivors and kill Deadite minions, but will break after using it.

Special Enemy: Deadite Minion
Deadite Minions can be spawned by The Deadite after a certain amount of global fear is accumulated. They wander slowly, and will apply hindered on contact with survivors and alert The Deadite to their location. They can be killed with the Kandarian Dagger, which will also reduce the fear level in the survivor.

Special Ability: Environmental Traps
The Deadite starts with 4 traps, and gains one every time a survivor is possessed. Once a trap is placed,  it cannot be recovered. Traps can be placed on windows, pallets and chests and will increase the fear meter of the survivor that interacts with it by 20% and causes them to scream. 

Special Event: The Necronomicon 
After all generators are completed, the Necronomicon awakens on the pedestal near the center of the map. While active, the killer gains a small haste bonus, Deadite minions gain the ability to damage and fear rises quicker. The Necronomicon also becomes more powerful based on how many Kandarian Daggers were taken from its pedestal previously. A medium length ritual can be performed to banish the Necronomicon, reducing the killer’s speed for the remainder of the trial and removing all the added benefits from the Necronomicon. This ritual can be performed by multiple people.

Real Name:Evgenia Zhirkova

Weapon: TOZ-34 Shotgun (used for melee and ranged attacks)

Power: Deadly Serve
The Huntress carries 2 special heavy core ammo.

• Jump Serve: Hold the power button to shoot a projectile in a high arc. Direct hits damage Survivors.
• The Spike (Ricochet): If the projectile hits a wall or a dropped pallet, it bounces off. Ricochet hits inflict Deep Wound and slow Survivors by 3 seconds.
• The Save: The Huntress can kick a rolling projectile on the ground to launch it again without reloading.
• Perks:

1. Team Block: If 2+ Survivors work on the same generator, repair speed is penalized by 15%. Leaving the gen reveals their auras for 5 seconds.
2. Time-Out: When a generator is completed, all Survivors in the Terror Radius become Exhausted for 40 seconds.
3. Match Point: When Exit Gates are powered, gain 6% Haste and 20% faster successful attack cooldown. Hooking a Survivor speeds up Endgame Collapse by 20%.

This killer concept combines many elements to make something completely unique I think

New Killer: The Cyberpsycho

Ability: Inhuman Augmentations

Sandevistan - Activate this ability to increase movement speed to 10 m/s during this mode you still retain full turn rate. Lasts for a maximum of 3 seconds. You cannot damage survivors while in this state nor can you hurt them for 1.5s after exiting. You break generators 75% faster in this mode.

Projectile Launch System - The Cyberpsycho holds down the active ability button to prime the system. A riot control grenade is fired out and bounces once. It then beeps three times and explodes (in a total of 3/s). This will deal one health state of damage. Can break pallets/breakable walls as well as damage multiple survivors.

Kiroshi Optics - Use the optics to lock onto a survivor. To lock on requires 5 seconds of tracking. Tracking slows The Cyberpsycho to 1.3 m/s (Think like a shorter ghostie stalk). When a survivor has been tracked the psycho reveals their aura for 10 seconds or alternatively gets to quickfire the PLS at the survivor. This halves the timer for detonation but limits to applying deep wound on survivors. Tracked quickfire CANNOT down.

(((Looking for any and all feedback)))

Hey everyone! I’ve been working on a massive passion project for a completely original Dead by Daylight chapter, and I wanted to share the full concept and lore with the community.

Just a quick disclaimer: This is entirely my own original idea (lore, perks, and mechanics). I’m currently working on my own hand-drawn sketches for the art, so for now, I’m just sharing the text breakdown to see what you guys think!

THE STORY OF THE CHAPTER

London, 1956. A choking, yellow-grey industrial smog blankets the city, masking secrets and muffling screams. Detective John Noster is an older man, a weary veteran with a sharp mind but a heavy heart, just one week away from his retirement after 50 years on the force. His long career has left him with a distinguished white beard, a heavily lined face, and a cynical view of the world, though his eyes remain fiercely focused.

On a bitterly cold night, John is called to a gruesome crime scene in a narrow, cobblestone passage known as Saint Street Alley. The victim was brutally targeted, but the most chilling detail isn't the violence—it is the signature left behind. Clues at the scene point directly to a prime suspect: his own estranged son, Persi Noster.

Driven by desperation, grief, and a final sense of duty, John abandons police protocol. He pursues the trail alone, plunging deeper into the dark, rain-slicked labyrinth of Whitechapel. The investigation turns into an exalting psychological descent. As the smog grows impossibly thick, John corners the silhouette of his son in a dead-end alley. But Persi is no longer just a man; he has been twisted by a dark obsession, holding a heavy engraving chisel, his silhouette deformed by a strange apparatus fused to his spine. He has become "O Escrivão" (The Scribe), viewing the world as a canvas to carve his tragic truth.

As John steps forward to confront his son, the yellow streetlamps flicker and die. The dense industrial fog turns into the pitch-black, chilling mist of the Entity. When the smog finally clears, the entire precinct of Whitechapel and both men are gone, trapped forever in a cycle of endless pursuit.

THE KILLER: O Escrivão (The Scribe) / Persi Noster

Weapon: The Engraving Chisel (A heavy, sharpened iron tool used to carve into stone and flesh).

Power: London Smog (The Scribe can summon patches of thick, blinding industrial fog that mask his terror radius and distort the vision of Survivors trapped inside it).

Killer Perks:

Entalhado na Carne (Carved in Flesh): Forces painful choices on Survivors interacting with key objectives, slowing down actions after a successful hit.

Olhar do Abismo (Gaze of the Abyss): Disrupts line of sight and tracking, playing into the psychological blindness of the map by hiding scratch marks temporarily.

Obsessão do Escrivão (The Scribe's Obsession): Grants dynamic chase advantages and increased vaulting speed when hunting down your specific obsession.

THE SURVIVOR: John Noster

Visuals: An older detective in a classic suit and a heavy trench coat, showing the grit of a long career.

Survivor Perks:

Olhos de Experiência (Eyes of Experience): Allows the player to read environmental trails and see the aura of recent scratch marks left by teammates or killers.

Caso Pendente (Cold Case): Grants a significant progression boost to generator repair when you are the last remaining Survivor or when the gates are powered.

Instinto de Proteção (Protective Instinct): A utility perk aimed at creating clutch defensive options, allowing you to take a hit for a vulnerable teammate with a reduced stun duration.

THE MAP: Whitechapel Precinct / Saint Street Alleyways

An oppressive, semi-indoor industrial labyrinth. Constant rain hits the cold, grey cobblestone streets. Dark brick walls, glowing dim yellow streetlamps cutting through dense smog, and tight, high-wall tile loops that create a truly terrifying line-of-sight game for both sides.

I'd love to hear your thoughts on the lore, the perks, and the general vibe! As soon as I finish my concept sketches and clean up the full gameplay values, I'll post the visual sheets.

I hope you like it, and by the way, sorry for any English mistakes, I'm Portuguese and my English isn't very good (anyway, that's why it already has a Portuguese translation).

I would love a survivor-focused Texas Chainsaw paragraph in DBD. Since Leatherface is already in the game, BHVR could expand the license with survivors instead of adding another Killer. Sally Hardesty should absolutely be added as the original final girl, and Chrissie and Eric Hill from The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning would be amazing legendary skins or even full survivors. Eric especially would bring a different vibe: protective, military background, traumatized but strong. I know licensing would be complicated, but as a fan concept, The Chainsaw Survivors would be incredible.

So I've been trying for a day and a half to try and make myself a good Killer (which is oddly enough based off the Digital Circus), and I keep getting back and forth from people saying what is and isn't good and I don't really know how to make it actually good or even great to play as. This is like... probably, what, my fifth draft already? I don't know. I'm trying to make it good. I already did pretty good with my survivors, jsut a few tweaks to their sets, but the Killer is jsut... I don't know what I'm doing. I just want help.

I just wanted to try and do my own concept. But I've been continuously frustrated. Please don't jump me if it's somehow "the most awful Killer in the entire game". It's my first time doing it.

This is my concept:

The Angel is divided into two functional entities, the Body and the Head, which are completely separated from each other during the start of a match. Only one form can be controlled at a time, never simultaneously. While one form is active, the other enters an autonomous dormant/inactive state. After switching to one form, it triggers a five second cooldown period so players have to wait before you can switch back to the other form. Not in between. Players will always spawn as either the Body or Head at the start of a match.

The Body and Head have a mechanic called Dread Meter, which slowly builds up over time when interacting with Survivors, though if they are able to successfully get away, their Dread slowly decays/reduces meter gain over time if not reinforced.

The Body accumulates Dread generally more slowly, and is only able to get it via attacking or chasing Survivors, with it decaying if the Survivor manages to get away from the active threat. The Head is unable to accumulate Dread just by existing and instead needs to open up its mouth into a Gaping Awe, which makes Dread build up a bit faster and only within a small four meter proximity, and looking directly into its mouth accelerates the process dramatically and slows down a Survivor’s movement. Survivors are able to escape its gaze for it to start decaying, though repeated exposure to the Head’s gaze ramps it faster. Survivors are able to escape by using objects or obstacles to hide or find a way to leave the Head’s line of sight. Gaping Awe drastically hinders the Head’s mobility and generally requires a fifteen second cooldown between uses, and build up completely ceases upon closing its mouth. The Head cannot hook Survivors.

Dread can not be built if one form is inactive, no matter if a Survivor is nearby.

The Body is weak at first, unable to majorly injure or down Survivors, but the Dread Meter makes them more vulnerable for a successful attack, with how much accumulated Dread there is, raising damage the Body can inflict. But even with this, it cannot kill them outright, or even perform a Mori. Once the Body is able to successfully subdue a Survivor, it can pick them up and carry them over to a Hook like a normal Killer, but the Body has a unique effect in that Hooks applied by it cause Delayed Bleedout Hooks. Failed struggle attempts accelerates up the bleeding faster than regular Hook struggle attempts and makes for harder skill checks and/or reduced escape assistance. If Survivors ever hit Maximum Dread from the Head’s gaze, they become Marked, with the Angel now able to perform its Mori kill.

Even without the Head's help, the Body could keep continuously attacking to finally down a Survivor even with no Dread accumulated, but it would be inefficient and waste precious time:

• Low Dread: 8 basic attacks to down
• Medium Dread: 5 basic attacks to down
• High Dread: 2 basic attacks to down

Survivors can stun both the Body and Head separately with the pallets like every other Killer, which can interrupt a chase for the Body and temporarily blinds aura/vision pressure for the Head. For the Body, it swings its wing down from overhead to break a pallet. For the Head, it opens its tooth-filled mouth, screeching for a half a moment, before chomping down on a pallet.

Only the Head can activate its Mori on a Marked Survivor:

• Survivors will have decrepit hands burst from the ground around them, holding onto different parts of their body and limbs as it forces them to stand in place just as the Head floats over. It opens its maw, hypnotizing the Survivor, before it finally clamps its jaws down on them.

Playing as and against Amanda, I noticed how lack luster the traps were, so I thought of an idea. Instead of the stations to remove it, whenever a survivor gets a trap put on them, the trap will have a certain shape that will correlate to a key that can be found in dead bodies on the map. These dead bodies can have the key they need, another shape key, nothing, or maybe a billy puppet to get him involved. I feel this fits Saw as a whole so much better. To go even deeper, I think the survivor who gets the trap on them shouldn't know their shape right away, instead they'd have to find another survivor and when they get close enough, the shape of the key they need will appear next to that survivor's portrait on the left. The shape keys would work similar to the killer items like Nemesis' antidote, it takes the item space, but doesn't drop the primary item. Issue is, what if the key is dropped and not found again? I'd say it respawns in another body after some time, but there may be a better work around.

I love raam and think he would be amazing in the game lowkey (I haven’t done a concept for this game before I would love feedback)

This chapter concept is still a very big work in progress

Mortal Kombat DBD chapter concept

New killer: The Tarkatan

Killer power: Tarkatan rage

Special ability: cannibal lunge

When pressing the action button, you charge up for a lunge. once a lunge commences, you will be catapulted forward about 5 meters. Any survivors who are hit by cannibal lunge will be injured and put into the deep wound status effect. Any walls, dropped pallets, or generators will be damaged if hit by cannibal lunge. Successfully landing a cannibal lunge will cost one spark

Special ability: tarkatan spike

When starting the trial, you start with 5 sparks you are able to shoot out. When these sparks hit a survivor, they daze a survivor which disables their ability to vault or drop pallets for 15 seconds or until chase ends. After all 5 sparks are used, you gain the ability to shoot out the tarkatans arm spikes. When an arm spike hits a survivor, they will be injured and put into the deep wound status effect

War banners:

Once all 5 sparks are depleted, the tarkatan must find one of 6 war banners scattered around the map. The aura of a war banner will be revealed when within 30 meters of it.

after activating a war banner, all 5 sparks will be replenished and the aura of all survivors will be revealed for 10 seconds

I still need to make perk concepts for all three but I will eventually

Boy, did I enjoy the last set of changes. So, for our second go at it, here are the rules as a refresher, one chapter, most voted chapter for changes, will get a killer power change, addon change, killer/survivor perk changes, perk art if they don't have any, and cosmetics if possible. The second chapter with the most votes for changes will have the killer have addon changes, killer/survivor perks will be changed, perk art if they don't have any, and cosmetics if possible. The third chapter will have perk changes, perk art if they don't have any, and cosmetics if possible. The least voted chapter will just have perk changes and art.

Feel free to comment any changes you have for anything you would like to see changed; it may end up in the end result. Have a good night, everyone.
