A vicious new killer born of hatred
Portia Maye, the Houndmaster, is the new killer in this new chapter, and she has a tragic past that stands out among the characters in Dead by Daylight.
Portia spent her childhood as a curious and kind-hearted young girl who was shattered when she witnessed the brutal torture of her father by pirates in the 19th century. Trapped in hatred after her father's death, Portia grew up alone on a mysterious island called " Dragon's Tooth " in the Bermuda Triangle and devoted her life to avenging those who took her father's life.
It is not known when Portia first learned of the existence of the "Bleeds," but her contact with the entity drew her deeper into the darkness. Portia's only remaining human connection is with her giant dog " Snug," a gift from her father that has become her hunting partner. Snug" is also the only emotional support for the Houndmaster's hunts.
The AI-controlled pet supports the killer's hunt!
PR TIMESSnug, the first AI-controlled pet to be employed in the new game, will chase and capture fleeing survivors and assist the Houndmaster in taking care of them. When controlling the Houndmaster, Snug can be given two commands: " Chase " and " Search"!
Chase
When you give the command "Chase," the snag rushes forward, and then you can change the aim of the chase and make the snag run in a different direction. If the snag catches the survivor, it will drag the survivor to the houndmaster. In order for the survivor to escape from the snag, it must be stunned or rescued by another survivor.
Search
The "Search" command allows you to send a snag to any location on the map. A " Houndsense " area will appear around the snag when it receives a search order, and the area will expand as the snag moves. When a survivor enters the sniffing area, the " killer instinct " identifies the location of the survivor. In addition, survivors who are affected by the sniff will be deeply wounded if they are injured. In addition, as the houndmaster follows the snag's search path, the speed of movement increases over time and returns to normal when the houndmaster leaves.
Suspicious new survivors who deeply worship entities
While there are only a few " gray" survivors in Dead by Daylight who are neither righteous nor evil, the new survivor, Taurie Cain, is one of the few survivors so far who is neither right nor wrong.
Taurie was born and raised in the Black Claws, an occult cult that is part of the Black Veil, an organization that studies and worships entity beings, and has risen to high ranks within the cult. Tory suffered the tragic loss of his mother and brother in Bleeding, where the realms of this world and the entity overlap, and his heart fell into darkness. From that time on, Tory became convinced that his destiny was to serve the Entity, but when he was drawn into the Misty Forest, he learned that he was destined to be a survivor, not a killer.
