New Character
Name: Efron Weisz
Identity: "Escapologist"
Character Background: A failed escape act left Efron Weisz with a wound that would not heal. Medicine repaired his body, faith soothed his soul, but since receiving the invitation, he believes only the mysterious manor holds the key to his lost memories.
[External Trait] Smokescreen
The "Escapologist" carries a Thurible. When thrown, it creates a smokescreen with a radius of 16.9 meters that lasts for 15 seconds.
The smoke spreads in a large circular area and greatly reduces visibility. Survivors near the smokescreen are hidden from the Hunter's detection, and some of the Hunter's summons and projectiles cannot pass through it. Abilities that require targeting a specific location cannot be cast through the smokescreen.
7 seconds after a Survivor leaves the smokescreen, their location is exposed.
Exclusive Trait:
If both the "Escapologist" and the Hunter are near the smokescreen, the Hunter's location is revealed to the "Escapologist," and the "Escapologist" leaves no footprints while inside the smoke.
[External Trait] Escape Act
When a Thurible is placed near a Rocket Chair, if a Survivor is put on the Rocket Chair, the "Escapologist" can activate this ability within 5 seconds to transfer the Survivor to another Rocket Chair within 38 meters.
The Rocket Chair's timer pauses during the transfer. After being transferred, the Survivor cannot interact with the Rocket Chair for 6 seconds.
Survivors in the basement cannot be transferred using this ability.
[External Trait] Misdirection
The first time the "Escapologist" takes damage equal to or greater than one normal attack, his Thurible protects him, blocking the damage and instantly moving him forward a short distance.
[External Trait] Anticipation
Thanks to his heightened awareness, the "Escapologist's" Obstacle Vaulting Speed is increased by 10%. Whenever any Survivor is ballooned, the Escapologist can continually see the locations of all Survivors. However, this constant vigilance reduces his Decoding Speed by 15%.
