The following is a script for a hypothetical Dead By Daylight spotlight trailer with Minecraft's Warden. Let me be clear; I know this will NEVER happen as Dead by Daylight is too gory for Mojang to want any part of it, but it's fun to come up with concepts. Feel free to use this script in a video, I only ask that you credit me. Also, this is heavily inspired by Rarithlynx's custom-made trailers. Lastly, I'd like to say that I'm new to Dead by Daylight and don't know if any of these perks and powers would be considered overpowered. If you have any suggestions to make the following move set fairer, please let me know.


The Script:

In a world where survival is not guaranteed, one must salvage what they can from their chancy environment. Some scrape by through harvesting wood and crafting it into a shelter. Others sacrifice poor animals to keep them from starving. For many, however, survival isn't enough. From peaceful villages to abandoned temples, there's plenty to uncover in this beautiful world. But, when our interest for the unknown grips us so firmly, it's far too easy to forget our fragility.

From innocent bats to gutsy plunderers, this Ancient City holds countess souls captive in the invasive skulk... and it always wants more.

The new killer is The Warden; guardian of the skulk and stalker of the city. Its ever-present lust for souls has driven it to strike a malicious deal with the Entity, now being gifted more victims than ever to grow the skulk even further.

The Warden's power is "Blind Rage." When chasing a survivor for 7 seconds uninterrupted, the power activates. The Warden will scream, get a great movement speed buff, and will be able shoot a single powerful sonic blast from its chest at will. The blast travels quite far, and if a survivor is too close to The Warden when hit with it, they will immediately be put into the dying state. After 10 more seconds the power goes through a lengthy cooldown.

The Warden comes with three new perks.

Use your impeccable vibration detection to scope out your prey with "Heightened Senses." When a survivor fails a skill check, all survivors, hooks, chests, totems, and generators within a certain radius of the noisy fool to be highlighted to you for 20 seconds. The perk then goes into a short cooldown.

Remove some of your victims' already limited power and instill raw uncertainty with "Deep Darkness." When you injure or knock down a survivor, anyone within your terror radius will suffer the blindness status effect for 15 seconds.

Find your prey quickly and kill even faster with "Sniffer." Within a certain radius, The Warden can smell any survivors, generators, totems, chests, and hooks nearby, highlighting them. When a survivor is sniffed, they will be highlighted to the Warden and given the blindness status effect for 10 seconds. The perk then goes through a short cooldown.

Turn the colorful, seemingly innocent world of Minecraft into a living nightmare with the Warden Chapter in Dead by Daylight.
