Release date: 07/03/2023Dead by Daylight’s Tools Of Torment Chapter features a new Killer – The Skull Merchant – and two new Survivors, Thalita and Renato Lyra. The Shelter Woods Map has also been updated to include The Skull Merchant’s Hunting Camp. Purchasing this add-on unlocks 3 exclusive Cosmetics: The Skull Merchant’s Slipshod Prototype, Thalita’s Golden Ambition, and Renato’s Golden Touch.
THE SKULL MERCHANT
The Killer is The Skull Merchant. A cunning and ruthless hunter, The Skull Merchant strives to be the ultimate apex predator. Using her gruesome Drones to track Survivors, she specializes in creating a deadly web of surveillance. Many have fallen prey to her dark innovations, their bones later repurposed into her next invention.
The Skull Merchant's Power: Eyes In The Sky
Special Ability - Claw Trap: A Survivor can attempt to disable a Drone by Hacking it. If they succeed, they will receive a Claw Trap, which will reveal their location on your handheld Radar device. Should they fail, the Drone will immediately enter Active Mode and Lock-On to them, leaving them Exposed.
The Skull Merchant comes with 3 new perks:
- Game Afoot
When you hit the most-chased Survivor, they become the Obsession. While chasing the Obsession, kicking Generators and breaking Walls or Pallets will grant a temporary speed boost.
- THWACK!
Upon Hooking a Survivor, the next Breakable Wall or Pallet you break will cause nearby Survivors to Scream and briefly reveal their Aura.
- Leverage
Gain a Token each time you Hook a Survivor, up to 10. This Perk activates whenever a Survivor is Hooked. Each Token reduces Survivor healing speed for a moderate duration.
THALITA LYRA
One of the new survivors is Thalita Lyra. A dreamer in a dark place, not even The Fog can shroud Thalita Lyra’s boundless spirit. Though her kite-fighting days may be over, her creativity and charm are still going strong – even if she may get a little competitive from time to time.
Thalita comes with 3 new perks:
- Cut Loose
After performing a fast vault in a chase, you have a brief duration to perform silent fast vault. If you do, the duration timer will be reset.
- Friendly Competition
When you complete a Generator with any other Survivors, you and those Survivors will temporarily receive a small Generator repair speed boost.
- Teamwork: Power of Two
When you finish Healing a Survivor, you will both receive a movement speed boost for as long you remain together. The boost will end when you separate or one of you loses a Health State.
RENATO LYRA
One of the new survivors is Renato Lyra. Introverted and meditative, Renato Lyra has never been one to rush – unless, of course, he’s kite-fighting. Forced to adapt to The Fog’s deadly pace, his analytical mind and inspiring dreamer’s heart have proven uniquely valuable survival tools.
Renato comes with 3 new perks:
- Background Player
When the Killer picks up another Survivor, Background Player activates for a brief duration. The next time you start running, break into a sprint and gain a temporary burst of speed. This Perk causes the Exhaustion status effect and cannot be used while Exhausted.
- Blood Rush
Blood Rush activates when you are one Hook away from death. When Healthy, you can press the Active Ability button to lose a Health State but instantly recover from the Exhausted Status. This process will temporarily grant you the Broken Status, though if you manage to survive that process, you’ll return to full health.
Blood Rush can only be used once a Trial.
- Teamwork: Collective Stealth
When a Survivor finishes Healing you, neither of you will leave Scratch Marks while you’re in close proximity. The benefit ends if you separate, or if one of you becomes Injured.
NEW MAP: SHELTER WOODS - THE SKULL MERCHANT'S HUNTING CAMP*
Deep in the heart of the Shelter Woods lies a hunting camp, where luxury and brutality coalesce. Many grotesque tools have been crafted within its walls. The high life indeed.
*This map is free for all players.
EXCLUSIVE CHAPTER KILLER ITEM: THE SKULL MERCHANT'S SLIPSHOD PROTOTYPE
The earliest prototype of her brutal weapon; while a little rough around the edges, it still tears flesh with maximum efficiency.
EXCLUSIVE CHAPTER SURVIVORS ITEMS: THALITA'S GOLDEN AMBITION & RENATO'S GOLDEN TOUCH
While her life experiences taught Thalita to believe in herself, Renato's allowed him to learn how to gain confidence.
Hope is a kite. Her inventions are the storm.
