  1. I think the one conflict to an X Mid-Chapter is how closely tied the trilogy is to sexual media, even compared to chapters like hellraiser and potential chapters like Friday the 13th

  2. Pearl could make a good skin for The Huntress. Like Birkin is a skin for Blight or Naughty Bear as a skin for Trapper and Tubarao for Renato. I think we could use more collaborations as skins instead of full chapters as a great way to add iconic character to the game without the need for them to come with perks that they can hardly balance anymore.

  3. Pearl could definitely work in DBD.

    Just off the top of my head, let her be a stealthy killer in a similar way that old Merchant was, where she can make little zones where she's undetectable, or survivors are oblivious, maybe use an old fashioned TV which she can carry around and turn on to show her dancing on screen, making noise which would mute the terror radius for survivors.

    She could also have the ability (on top of the other one) to open a locker as fast as Dredge can exit one, and take out a weapon, like a pitchfork. While she has the pitchfork, she can charge forward with it, similar to Pig's ambush, but the pitchfork has more range, and hits over small objects. After using it the pitchfork breaks, and she has to use her axe with no special abilities.

    To be fair though I've never watched the movies so I barely have any idea what I'm talking about.

  4. Pearl could have a musical power. I disagree with your assessment. You could say the same thing about legion. the entity could easily give pearl powers. I would give her a musical power to use in the trials. Did you forget that the entity gives people powers. Such as legion speed. And Victor. I’ll go one step further pixel. Why not, make pearl a legendary skin for legion. It just makes so much sense. Don’t you think so

  5. I think the killer could work, have it called The Farmer or something but she has the ability to swap between different farming equipment to do damage. She has a two handed axe, a scythe, a smaller weapon like shears, and a pistol. They all do slightly different things to do damage but I haven't thought that far through. Have her perks be about the lost showgirl dream as well, but also having both Maxine and Pearl in the same chapter, both with Mia Goth's face would be stellar.
