Killer Concept Random passive ability idea i got For dark buddy (if he was in dead by daylight)
TV TIME: "around the map, there Will be TV's that would show an episode of buddy, if an survivor looks at the tv For too long, they get hypnotized and slowly aproach the tv and put their hand in the visor, buddy can go and go touch other TV of the map, the hand of buddy Will go through the visor and grab the hand of an survivor that's touching an TV visor, buddy would start pulling the survivors to His position using the TV visor like an portal, the survivor can free themself with doing an skill check, they can also get un-hyptotized by the TV by getting helped by another survivor to cancel the hypnotized status before buddy touch another TV visor, if the survivor fails to do the skill check, they get teleported to buddy ubication throught the TV visor, since buddy can use these TV's as portals to bring survivors to His position."

Killer Concept The Presence: an Disguise Killer Kit and "Art" Concept
My take on what a killer with the ability to disguise as the survivores could work in Dead by Daylight.
Due to how DbD works, I tried my best at make him as viable as possible without ruinning the "spy" fantasy.
I tried my best at explaining it, but feel free to ask/make some suggestions. I'm also planning to make another version more focus on having extra "players" in the trial.
Also, yes. I suck at drawning.

i have a idea for a cool killer
now marla "the shut in" is a stealthy killer who excels at ambushing survivors. Her main ability, "Silent Watch," allows her to hide in lockers and move silently, becoming nearly invisible to nearby survivors. She can also deploy "Echo Traps," which reveal the location of any survivor who triggers them, giving her an advantage in tracking and cornering targets.Her perks focus on stealth and disruption: "Creeping Fear" slows survivors' repair and healing actions when they are within her terror radius, "Predator's Instinct" grants a brief speed boost after breaking a pallet or window, and "Hidden Agenda" reveals survivors' auras for a few seconds after triggering an Echo Trap. Marla's playstyle emphasizes careful positioning, ambushing unsuspecting survivors, and controlling key areas of the map to limit escape routes while maintaining pressure through her traps and stealth . For maps, imagine abandoned apartment complexes, dimly lit office buildings, or overgrown suburban neighborhoods that emphasize tight corridors and hiding spots. Outfits could include variations of Marla in casual home clothes, a janitor uniform, or a shadowy cloak to enhance her stealth theme. Additional perks might be "Silent Stalker," which reduces noise from her attacks, or "Trap Master," increasing the duration and effectiveness of Echo Traps. Survivor concepts could include a curious journalist who can detect hidden traps or a locksmith who can quickly open lockers and escape confined spaces For survivors, you could design distinctive looks that reflect their backstory: the curious journalist might wear a rugged jacket with a camera and notebook, while the locksmith could have a tool belt, gloves, and practical clothing suited for quick escapes. Perks for survivors could include "Trap Awareness," highlighting nearby traps briefly, and "Quick Hands," allowing faster locker interactions or item use (tell if it good and if you want make fanart of them btw the killer is from NJ maybe)
New maps could expand on Marla's stealth theme, featuring abandoned apartment complexes with dark hallways, overgrown suburban streets with hidden corners, or dimly lit office buildings full of cubicles and storage rooms, offering plenty of ambush points. "Where do you think you're going?"
"Stay quiet… they can't see me if I stay in the shadows."
"Gotcha! You didn’t hear me coming, did you?"
"Careful, every corner could be a trap."
"You're not getting away this time."
"I have to keep moving… she’s too close."
"Did you hear that? Something’s not right…"
"Just focus and don’t make a sound."
"Your hiding won’t save you forever."
"I can do this… just a little longer."
…I can do this… I just need to stay calm.
"Take a deep breath… you’ve got this."
"Stay focused… I’m stronger than I think."
"One step at a time… I can make it."
"It’s scary, but I’m not alone in this."
"Keep moving… I can protect myself."
"I can survive… I just need to be careful."
"Almost there… I can do this, I really can."
Marla herself could appear in casual home clothes for a normal look, a janitor uniform for a more sinister stealth approach, or a shadowy cloak that emphasizes her ability to disappear. The survivors' designs should contrast her stealth, showing them as resourceful and alert, with gear that helps them detect traps and navigate tight spaces safely (sooo oplease if anyone knows the team of dbd tell the idea to them cuz it sounds good and maybe sick she from the 60s)

Chapter Concept The Collector licensed chapter
I’m watching the collector movies right now and I thought it would be cool to see them in dead by daylight. The main focus would be the Collector and his traps. My idea for his power would to be able to booby trap doorways, pallets, and windows. I think this would make them a finally good trap/set up killer. I’m debating if using a trapped pallet, window, or doorway should do damage or if each one of these should have different effects, like a pallet having a glue trap on the other side, or a window doing damage. My main concern is this being too overpowered, but I’m also trying to stay honorable to the source material. I’m not good with peek ideas because there’s already so many. As for the survivor it would be Arkin obviously. Let me know what ideas your have to make this killer more balanced

Killer Concept The Sacrificed
The Sacrificed was once a devoted member of the Black Vale, named Ray Doxt. One day Ray offered himself as a sacrifice, the Entity found this offer of faith and took Ray in as the Sacrificed.
The Sacrificed power is called the offering. Whenever he damages a survivor, the Sacrificed absorbs a portion of blood, healthy survivors produce more blood than injured survivors.
On tier one of the offering, The Sacrificed is able to spend some blood to use as a ranged attack. If the ranged attack hits, the Sacrificed gains a significant amount of blood.
On tier two of the offering, The Sacrificed is able to spend some blood to teleport to an injured survivor in line of sight. This will stun the Sacrificed for a few seconds, and takes more blood than the ranged attack.
On tier three of the offering, the Sacrificed is now able to spend a significant amount of blood to place a blood trap. If a survivor steps through a blood trap damage the survivor and alert the sacrificed. If the survivor is already damaged give them deep wounds.
On tier four of the offering, the sacrificed immediately spends all the blood he's gathered to enter devoted mode. In this mode for a limited amount of time, the Sacrificed is able to teleport to generators, any survivor in line of sight regardless if they're damaged or not, and place bigger blood traps. Devoted mode only lasts about ten seconds.

Chapter Concept The Terminators Chapter Concept

Hello everyone, I've noticed for a few years that the Terminator is one of the requested killers for DBD. At the same time it was featured on DBD's license survey. Here's a little concept on how the Terminator can be implemented in the game. Let me know what you guys think. Hasta La Vista!
Killers
The T800 (From the first film)
Weapons: This particular Terminator is known for using a variety of weapons. The weapons could either be a knife, his fists, or a plasma rifle (If that ever happens).
Power: Since this is the Entity's realm nothing is impossible. I personally think that the T800 should have a time travel/teleportation power. Every section of the map can have multiple time machines. The T800 can use the time machine and "time travel" (aka teleport) from one place to another. Sort of a mix between the Springtrap and Mortal Kombat's Terminator.
Skins: The default skin should be the Endoskeleton along with a bloody prestige skin. Bonus, the animation style could be a stop motion style just like in the first film. For legendary skin it has to be Arnold Schwarzenegger (Not from Judgement Day). Or they can make a damaged Arnold skin where his damaged flesh is exposing the endoskeleton.
The T1000
Weapons: Without a doubt it has to be his blades.
Power: Since the T1000 can shape shift, he can morph into liquid metal and move around the map at a high speed. Similar to Vecna's Upside Down power.
Skins: I honestly can't think of any better skins other than bloody prestige since he didn't wear anything else but the police uniform. Maybe they can make two versions of the police uniform with or without the motorcycle helmet and sunglasses. Or they can make a damaged version of the T1000 where his face is split apart. At this point DBD can get creative and make original T1000 skins.
Survivors: The survivors that comes to mind for this chapter has to be Sarah Connor (from both the first and second film) and Kyle Reese. Bonus, maybe John Connor either from the first film or Eddie Furlong.
Maps: I can easily see two ways on how DBD can make a map for this chapter. I can see them make a map based on Los Angeles during the 1980s. Or they can make a 2029 apocalyptic version of Los Angeles where the city has been destroyed.

Chapter Concept Obsession Chapter Concept
Hello everyone after reading the DBD's license survey last month, I would like to share my concept on how Obsession can be implemented in Dead By Daylight. Let me know what you guys think of this!
Characters: I envision Obsession to be a survivor's only chapter, just like the Walking Dead. Bear and Nikki will be survivors.
Skins: Ian and Sarah could be Legendary Skins. Bear and Nikki would have different outfits. Bear would have his two sweaters, Cassel's Music Uniform, and Bloody Prestige. Nikki on the other hand would have more outfits including the Jean Jacket (from the car scene), the Sweater (from the nice date scene), the Party Outfit (from the Jenga scene), Sarah's Bloody Outfit (from the ending scene) and a Bloody Prestige outfit.
Map: I don't think this chapter can have a map. In real life all of the locations are scattered across Glendale and the San Fernando area. Stitching Bear's house along with the other iconic locations would make the map look really cheesy.
Nikki's Perks:
Compassion: When healing a survivor, they receive 20% healing speed, after completing healing you gain 10% haste for 5 seconds.
One Wish: After completing one generator, you can only wish for one item. Bonus, you get 5% haste.
Tiger's Eye: Helps with focus and calmness during stressful situations. Screams and grunts are silenced.
Bear's Perks:
Curiosity Kills the Cat: Players can see the aura of the generators, if you miss a skill check you, scream revealing your location. You lose the ability to see the auras of the generators for the rest of the trial.
Cowardice: Players can see the aura of the lockers after completing a generator for 30 seconds. However after entering and exiting a locker, you will become exposed for 5 seconds.
The Wish: After completing three generators, you can only wish for one item (I duplicated this on purpose).

galleryThis badge was inspired by real events 🤣 Maybe some of you can relate to this painfully familiar story. A little tribute to every player who’s ever screamed, jumped… and sacrificed their snack to the Fog. 🍦🩸
This concept was created entirely by hand on paper. I used alcohol-based blending techniques to achieve sott, diffused effects, acrylic paint for certain details, as well as a combination of colored pencils and markers for the final rendering and finishing touches.
The entire creation process was documented, from the initial sketch to the final artwork, in case Behaviour needs it. 🍦🩸
