**Artistic Sensitivity** is an external trait that belongs exclusively to the Painter, Edgar Valden.

## Trait Details

### Description

*He carries a paintbrush and a drawing board with him. Once he has **memorized** a Hunter's face, the Painter can **paint** the Hunter's face on the drawing board.*

*When the painting is done, he can place the drawing board in the scene. When the Hunter sees the placed drawing board, they will be attracted by it, walk over involuntarily and stop to admire their face in front of it.*

*If the Hunter takes too much time walking over to the drawing board, they will lose interest in the painting which renders the drawing board useless.*

***Memories**: Within a certain range of a Hunter, the Painter needs to look at the Hunter's face from the front to memorize it.*

***Painting**: Once he has memorized the Hunter's face, tap the ability button to begin painting. The Painter can move while painting but cannot interact other than vaulting or jumping into Dungeons. Tap the ability button again to stop painting.*

***Placing the drawing**: When the painting is done, tap the ability button to place the drawing board. The Hunter will be forcibly attracted when they get close to the drawing board. No additional drawing boards can be placed within the effective range of the placed drawing board.*

## Gameplay

Edgar carries around 2 canvases which he can paint on. After looking at the face of a hunter for long enough, he is able to paint their likeness on a canvas. Placing a painted canvas on the ground near a hunter will attract their attention, and distract the hunter from a chase or attack for a certain amount of time.

## Tips and Trivia

* The Canvas can be placed next to Pallets, luring the hunter under them so that they can be stunned again.
* It cannot be placed in the Photographer's Photo World.
* A placed Canvas will disappear if the Hunter activates Excitement in the radius of it.
	+ Same goes for "Undead" if his energy is above 50 during his attacking animation.
* In some situations a placed canvas will not activate even if a hunter is within its radius of effect:
	+ A placed Canvas will not affect a hunter **while they are carrying a survivor.**
	+ An **inactive** Dream Witch follower will not be affected.
	+ It will not activate if the Hunter **does not look** at the Canvas **with their in-game camera**.

## Initial Translation

*Direct translation from the Chinese Weibo post (press "expand" to view)*

**Artistic Sensitivity =** The Painter carries a paintbrush and drawing board with him. After memorizing the appearance of the Hunter, the painter can draw a portrait of the Hunter on the drawing board. After the drawing is completed, the drawing board can be placed in the arena.

When standing close to the drawing board, the Hunter will be attracted by the painting. The Hunter will walk towards the drawing board uncontrollably, and stop to admire their appearance on the drawing board. After admiring the drawing board for a long time, the Hunter will lose interest in the painting, causing the painting to fail.
Memory: When the Hunter is within a certain range, the Painter can remember their appearance by looking at them from the front.

Drawing: After the memory is completed, click the skill button to draw. In the drawing state, the painter can move, but no interaction is allowed. Click the skill button again to end the drawing state.

Place the drawing board: After drawing, click the skill button to place the drawing board in front. When the Hunter walks near the drawing board, he will be forced to go to it.
