## Misc. Information

### Appearances

*Nun Massacre (The Definitive Edition)*

The **Driller** is one of three antagonists in the Definitive Edition of *Nun Massacre*.

## Description

### Appearance

As with all the new antagonists, Driller uses the Nun's base model, but is the most distinctly reskinned of them.

Driller is a tall, rust-colored humanoid. It has a monstrous build, with a large upper torso, broad, protruding shoulders and thin, elongated arms and emanciated human legs, partially covered up by an apron or tunic. Its face is vaguely human, but appears rotten and is covered by a flesh-colored hood-like headpiece. Overall, it bears a somewhat treelike appearance in texture and form, while also appearing similar to a large human figure wearing a brown friar robe. Driller has a large conical drill bit for a right hand, which it uses to kill, hence the name.

### History

From what little backstory is provided for the Driller through the protagonist's narration, it inhabits an abandoned factory in the middle of the woods, from where it takes its victims. Several newspaper clippings found in the building indicate that it has been killing since at least 1984.

## *Nun Massacre - Factory*

According to the opening monologue, the protagonist went on a camping trip with a group of friends and as they were sitting around the campfire, drinking beers and chatting, they heard something watching them from a safe distance from the shrubbery. Throughout observing, it made indistinct sounds, clueing in everyone of a presence in the woods, but the group ignored the source, believing they were simply being paranoid. When they all went to sleep in their tents, the Driller attacked and killed most of them while the protagonist escaped and took refuge in an abandoned factory. Unknown to her at the time, said building was the Driller's hideout and upon its return, it patrolled the structure in search of their latest victim.

In the end, it's revealed that the entire scenario was a nightmare by the protagonist, who really did survive a deadly attack on her campsite five years prior. The perpetrator then had really been "a man with a power drill", rather than the creature seen in the dream, though the protagonist states that he was "more a monster than a man". She never got over the trauma and has been having the same recurring nightmare each night since then. The status and whereabouts of the Driller, or rather the actual killer it is based on, are unknown, though he likely remains at large.

### In-Game

The Driller functions the same as the Nun. It wanders the area in search of the player. If they spot the player, they will scream out loud and will give chase to the player. Because of their long arms, they can reach the player more easily. The player has three lives and will respawn at the entry point upon death.

## Known victims

## Trivia

* The Factory mode and the Driller are an obvious homage to *Power Drill Massacre* and the Driller Killer.
	+ Although there is no official confirmation, the "Factory" reskin being a clear allusion to the Branden Sawmill's interior, the location in the midst of a forest, the protagonist being a camper sometime during the late 80's, Driller's M.O. and prominent drill weapon, as well as the ending monologue describing the real killer as having used a power drill, all heavily imply that the woods were the Poconos and that the Driller is simply a distorted depiction from memory of her encounter with the Driller Killer.
* The Driller's appearance being somewhat reminiscent of an inhuman Capuchin monk is a male take on the Nun.
