The Kaiju

**Godzilla** or **The Kaiju** is a licensed Killer that is featured in the Godzilla DLC, which also includes One New Map, that being Kamata District.

He originates from the long-standing film franchise ***Godzilla***. In Dead by Daylight, he appears in his classic 1954 appearance.

## Overview

**The Kaiju** is a massive Killer, rampaging across the map and causing overwhelming destruction with a power **Birthed by Folly**.

His personal Perks, God Incarnate, Odo Island Legend, and Hex: Nuclear Reactor, allow him to become a nigh-unstoppable force while maximizing the carnage he causes during the Trial.

Difficulty Rating: **TBA**

## Lore

With thousands of years of slumber disrupted by nuclear bomb testing, Godzilla was horribly disfigured and mutated into a hulking titan. Realizing the humans did this to him, he would unleash his wrath upon the citizens of Tokyo, bringing devastation and tragedy in his wake. As his hatred grew, the Entity used the beast's desire for vengeance and lured him into its realm, where he could sate his lust for human blood for eternity...

### Unique Perks

**The Kaiju** comes with **3** Perks that are unique to him:

Every time you break a pallet, gain a Token for a maximum of **3**/**4**/**5** **Tokens**. Each Token can be spent at once to bolster Movement speed while in a chase, or are automatically spent to nullify stuns or blinds Survivors may attempt to inflict on you. This perk goes into cool-down once the last Token is spent.
 **Odo Island Legend** | The islanders hailed you as a mighty being. It is time the legend comes to life.
For every **5 seconds** you are in a chase, gain a Token for a maximum of **5**/**10**/**15** **Tokens**. If a Survivor escapes you without getting hit, gain the ***Undetectable*** **Status Effect** for **5 seconds** for every Token spent.
 **Hex: Nuclear Reactor** | A Hex rooted in the very force that changed you. It is your duty to remind humanity of the dangers of what they work with.
As long as this Hex is active, standing **16 metres** near a Totem generates **1**/**2**/**3** **Tokens** per **15 seconds**. Each Token grants a **3 %** reduction to attack cool-downs and increase in Movement speed per Token, but Tokens start decaying once the maximum of **5**/**8**/**10** **Tokens** is reached. Tokens also decay once you leave the radius.

## Power

### Birthed By Folly

All maps become surrounded by an **Ocean of Terror**. Start the trial submerged in the Ocean of Terror, capable of moving in and out of the map at will. While moving, your footsteps damage survivors and generate enough force to push others a certain distance. Survivors that get pushed into a Hook will be automatically hooked.

Using Basic Attacks on the walls outside of a map, or a building within the map, will also generate force. Basic Attacks can be performed even while submerged in the Ocean of Terror.

**Pallets** are now also hooked to Transmission Towers that can be used to stun The Kaiju. Items that deal Flashburn or Blindness will also force the Kaiju to be lured in the direction of that item for the duration of the **Status Effect**.

The Kaiju cannot interact with Props normally, and certain Perks in your kit, as well as the Perks of Survivors, have a different effect on the Kaiju.

### **Special Attack: Atomic Breath**

At any point in the trial, hold the power button to charge the Kaiju's signature Atomic Breath. Once fully charged, press the power button to unleash the attack. While channeling Atomic Breath, survivors that are directly hit are immediately put into the Dying State. Survivors that are within close proximity of the attack, or traverse an area struck by the Atomic Breath **30 seconds** after the attack will be inflicted with the ***Irradiated*** **Status Effect**.

While Irradiated, Survivors slowly start decaying to the Dying State. Furthermore, all Healing Progression is reduced by **15 %**. Irradiated can be cleansed by being healed.

* **CHAPTER: Godzilla**

## Momento Mori

Godzilla glares down at the downed Survivor for a moment, then lets out a loud, prolonged roar. The force of the roar causes the Survivor to leak blood from their body until it vanishes from the force, leaving a bloody puddle where they once lied. If a Survivor is inside a building or playing in an indoor map, Godzilla will instead have his roar cave in a portion of the room they're in, flattening them under rubble.
