Dead by Daylight released a new PTB chapter by surprise today, featuring a new killer called the Houndmaster. The Houndmaster is an original DBD character, and comes with her own lore and three fitting perks. Here's everything you need to know about the Houndmaster, including her Mori, powers, and perks.

Dead by Daylight Houndmaster Mori

The Houndmaster's Mori is one of the game's goriest so far, featuring both the Houndmaster and her hound. Check out the Houndmaster's Mori for yourself just below:

Dead by Daylight Houndmaster Power

The Houndmaster's power is called Scent of Blood, which allows her to use her hound to pursue and attack survivors. Here are the details of her killer ability:

Killer Power – Scent of Blood

The Houndmaster and her dog operate as one. Her commands are followed without question or delay.

Special Ability: Chase

The Chase Command sends the dog out at high speed. Pressing the Power button again redirects the Chase, pivoting the dog’s path. When the dog catches a Survivor, the dog starts a Grab. The Survivor becomes Hindered and is pulled toward The Houndmaster. The Survivor can get free by stunning the dog or can be rescued by another Survivor. Grabs that end without Injury leave the Survivor Hindered. Grab duration is shorter for Survivors with the Endurance status effect.

Special Ability: Search

The Search Command sends the dog to a target location, creating a Search Path. It has its own lullaby and, as it moves, its Houndsense radius rises over distance traveled. Survivors who enter the radius are affected by Houndsense and revealed by Killer Instinct. If The Houndmaster follows the dog’s Search Path, she gains increased movement speed over time. Leaving the Search Path ends the bonus movement speed.

Special Effect: Houndsense

Healthy Survivors affected by Houndsense receive Deep Wounds when Injured. Injured Survivors affected by Houndsense suffer from louder Grunts of Pain and longer Pools of Blood when put into the Dying state.

Dead by Daylight Houndmaster Perks

Like all other killers, the Houndmaster has her own three unique perks. These are the Houndmaster's perks:

All-Shaking Thunder

  • After you fall from a height, your lunge attack distance is increased by 75/75/75% for 8/12/16 seconds.
  • This perk has a 5/5/5-second cooldown.

Scourge Hook: Jagged Compass

  • At the start of the trial, up to 4 random hooks are changed into scourge hooks. You see their auras in white.
  • When a Survivor is unhooked from a non-scourge hook, it becomes a scourge hook. When you hook a Survivor on a Scourge Hook, the aura of the generator with the most progress is revealed in yellow for 6/8/10 seconds.

No Quarter

  • When a Survivor reaches 75/75/75% of a self-heal, they are faced with continuous skill checks.
  • If one of these skill checks is missed or the heal is interrupted, the Survivor becomes broken for 20/25/30 seconds.
