New Revenant ability ideas.
Posted: Thu Feb 29, 2024 11:00 am
I've always felt like Revenant could use more abilities, so here's some ideas.
Soulless Dead: An ability on a long cooldown that raises a soulless corpse as an npc skeleton that will wander around and punch nearby crew. (Bonus points if someone sprites monkey skeletons for this)
Summon Phantom: A very expensive ability that spawns a ghost role Phantom that is initially incorporeal, and has to find a soulless corpse to possess, basically deleting the corpse and turning the Phantom into a slightly stronger version of a Faithless (an underutilized, rarely seen mob that can pry open doors, listen in on radios, and of course smack people.) Once they die as a Faithless, they are dead forever. It can also be killed while in the process possessing a corpse.
Project Terror: An ability that causes a random monster hallucination (such as bubblegum, a xeno, or beepsky chasing you) to all living beings around you, shortly stunning them from shock and giving them a temporary negative moodlet.
Hopefully some of these ideas makes Revenant more of a threat than just shock spam.
