Paranormal Investigator is a Support and Stunner Survivor concept for Bite by Night. Using their abilities to support both the team and themselves, tracking down ghosts that can mark Generators or give them an Ethereal Charge. Their “Official” Name is Keno.

Introduction

The Paranormal Investigator is a support focused survivor that focuses on objectives, but can be used to fight against the Killer. Using their Emf Detector to locate ghosts and help free them. Paranormal Investigators have 15 bonus health, which can be restored by a Medic’s healing.

Abilities

EMF Detector

Keybind:Q
Cooldown: 5 seconds
“Take out the EMF Detector”

The Paranormal Investigator Equips the EMF Detector, The EMF Detector has 5 tiers, tier 1 is always lit up, you gain tiers based on distance and direction, if you are facing the general direction a ghost is in, you gain a tier, the other three are based on distance, which would need to be determined based on measurement units in the game. I would also imagine that the EMF detector would go crazy when an Animatronic is nearby, could be used to sus out disguised Dopplegangers or stealth mode Projects. The EMF Detector is held out indefinitely until put away or hit by an Animatronic.

Paragoggles

Keybind:E
Cooldown: 10 seconds
“Pull down the Goggles”

The Paranormal Investigator equips the Paragoggles, forcing them into first person and allows them to see a ghost, the goggles can be worn for 30 seconds or until damaged. While wearing the goggles you can interact with ghosts, handing them like a cute Plush in a moderately long animation, you are also revealed and Vulnerable during this. Once a ghost is free, you gain one Ethereal Charge. And it would be really funny if Animatronics have a glow around them when viewed with the goggles on, though I feel like the only use for this would be against Dopplegangers.

Ethereal Charge

Keybind:R
Charges:1
“Release Ethereal Energy”

Now this is an ability that I have debated for what it would do, Initially there would be 3 charges you could get and work similarly to the other stun classes, but then it's just another stun class, then there was the idea of making the charges work on generators, something like one charge per generator for everyone, so a stack of PIs can’t just speed blitz a game. So I think I’ve settled on 1 charge, works on generators, but has the ability to stun a killer in a small area around the player for like 4 seconds, making it risky but a little rewarding as well.

Keno is a base concept I always do when a game lets me make a Character, and she typically always has the same Serious Military personality, at this point she's become an OC. This has nothing to do with BBN this is just kind of an Author’s Notes.
