DBD Caveman Killer Concept - Tiarak, The Primitive - Perks, Power and Add Ons
I posted my Survivor concept for this chapter, "NEW AGE" around an hour ago and finally finished the Killer's perks, power and add ons. I still need to do his lore fully but I know the basics of it and some add ons have lore references. Essentially, in his universe, humans have reverted to a primitive state, becoming cavemen again.

Power
WAY OF THE HUNT
———————————
SPECIAL ABILITY: Rope Spears
Press and hold the Power button to charge a Rope Spear Throw. The longer the Power button is held, the further and straighter the Rope Spear will be thrown. Once the Rope Spear is thrown, it will embed into the environment or any Survivors hit for 5s. During this time, pressing the Power button again will pull The Primitive towards the Rope Spear, whether it is embedded into a Survivor or the environment as long as the Rope Spear is within 12m and in line of sight. After dashing to a Rope Spear, it is automatically reloaded.
SPECIAL ABILITY: Snare Traps
When a Rope Spear is embedded into the environment and not picked by The Primitive, it creates a Snare Trap in a 6m radius around the Rope Spear. Survivors who come within the snare’s range become trapped, gaining 10% Hindered, Incapacitated, and only being able to move within the snare’s range. After 10s, a Survivor frees themselves or another Survivor can help them out which only takes 5s. If a Survivor is injured by a basic-attack, they are freed from the Snare Trap. Only one Survivor can be trapped in a single Snare Trap at a time. Up to 4 Snare Traps can be present in a trial at a single time.
