The Dredge

RoleKiller

DifficultyHard

A twisted abomination too disturbing to bear, The Dredge’s malevolence is palpable. All light slowly drains in its presence, surrounding Survivors in darkness. Using lockers as map-wide gateways, it can emerge at any moment, seemingly everywhere at once.

Power and perks

Power

Reign of Darkness

Special Ability –The Gloaming: The Dredge can activate The Gloaming, leaving a Remnant behind. While The Gloaming is activated, The Dredge can teleport to any lockers across the map, allowing for heightened mobility and surprise attacks. Be warned – Survivors can barricade lockers to impede your progress. Otherwise, The Dredge can return to its Remnant.
Special Ability – Nightfall:
Whenever the Dredge teleports, places a Survivor on a Hook, or injures a Survivor, the Nightfall meter builds. The meter also fills when Survivors are injured, as well as when The Dredge remains in a Locker. When the meter is full, the entire map darkens. Simple navigation becomes a matter of life and death as Survivors scramble to stay one step ahead. Meanwhile, The Dredge loses its Terror Radius, gaining the element of surprise, as well as a reduced cooldown on Locker teleportation.

The Dredge Lore

It goes by many names. To Otto Stamper, who sought to create a utopic paradise for his followers, it was The Druanee. A cautionary tale he spread throughout the Garden of Joy: to harbor dark thoughts was to invoke Its wrath. Yet Stamper was not above cruelty. Those who defied his idea of order disappeared under mysterious circumstances. Before long, Stamper’s Garden was sown with blood. As his followers butchered one another, fuelled by paranoia and repressed rage, The Dredge arose from the gore-strewn muck to feast.
