Character Background: To fully cure Emil, Ada began a new treatment based on "Delphi." At first, everything went smoothly. But as memories of fear were gradually replaced by the unknown, Emil grew increasingly volatile and violent. Like a beast stripped of its humanity, he became hostile toward anything he perceived as a threat.
[External Trait] Bestial Awakening
"Herztier" normally remains in Human Form. In this form, he gains Sensory Overload and can detect Survivors within 36 to 48 meters. Using abilities, performing a Normal Attack, destroying pallets, or taking similar actions switches him to Beast Form for 8 seconds.
[External Trait] Shred
"Herztier's" Normal Attack, Shred, has two stages. The first stage is Pounce. "Herztier" leaps upward and attacks as he descends. Charging makes him leap higher. This attack deals no damage and has no additional hit recovery. If he attacks again within 4.5 seconds, he performs Intercept, dealing 50% of Normal Attack damage.
[External Trait] Mark of Prey
When "Herztier" hits a Survivor with Shred or Lunge, they gain Mark of Prey for 40 seconds. Subsequent Shred or Lunge attacks against marked Survivors deal an additional 50% of Normal Attack damage. The mark is removed after triggering twice.
[Tier 0 Ability] Lunge (Cooldown: 14 seconds)
Press the ability button to lunge forward in the chosen direction for 7 meters. Hold the ability button to charge in place before lunging. The longer the charge, the farther the Lunge, up to 14 meters. Lunge can be used again within 5 seconds after the first lunge.
[Tier 1 Ability] Heightened Senses (Cooldown: 45 seconds)
Press the ability button to detect Survivors within 30 meters, causing them to leave a trail at their location. They leave another trail every 18 seconds, for up to 3 trails. Each trail lasts 30 seconds.
When "Herztier" senses a trail by stepping on it, his Movement Speed increases by 8% for 10 seconds, Lunge and Pounce become faster, and Lunge's cooldown is reduced by 6 seconds.
[Tier 2 Ability] Mark of Prey‑ Pursuit
The maximum number of Mark of Prey stacks increases from 2 to 3.
