Killer

A sadistic and merciless executioner, Pyramid Head is fixated on dispensing punishment through pain. Encumbered by the steel frame upon his head and with a hulking great blade in tow, he stalked the hellish corridors of Silent Hill, committed to a duty that no one truly understood. Where he trod, even monsters fled for the shadows, and those who crossed his path fell victim to unrestrained acts of aggression.

When his duty was complete and his presence no longer needed, he prepared for the long rest—and yet, his skills were required elsewhere. The fog that streamed over him was somehow different than that he was accustomed to in Silent Hill, as if each wisp contained the nerves of a creature, writhing, seeking him out. There was an unspoken agreement in that moment.

The billowing cloud was an invitation to duty and sadism, and Pyramid Head, taking a step into the fog, accepted his obligation once more.

Open the gates of suffering and be judged! The Great Knife splits the ground, giving rise to an infernal construct and spreading agony to all who approach.

Press and hold the Power button to activate. Once activated, move in any direction to carve a trail into the ground. Release the button to finish carving.

Survivors who walk or run on the trail will trigger Killer Instinct and be afflicted with Torment. Survivors under the effect of Torment may be sent to a Cage of Atonement by The Executioner while they are in the dying state.

SPECIAL ATTACK: Punishment of the Damned
Press the Attack button while Rites of Judgment is active to perform Punishment of the Damned. This ability unleashes a wave of force in front of The Executioner that damages any Survivors in its path.

SPECIAL ABILITY: Cage of Atonement
Press the Active Ability button while standing over a dying Survivor suffering from Torment to send them to a Cage of Atonement. Survivors in a Cage of Atonement can be sacrificed to The Entity as if they were on a hook. During the second phase of the summoning ritual they will be forced to complete skill checks to hold off The Entity.

A Survivor being rescued or rescuing another Survivor from a Cage of Atonement will no longer suffer from Torment.

SPECIAL ABILITY: Final Judgement
Press the Active Ability button when standing over a dying Survivor suffering from Torment who has already reached struggle phase on a hook or in a cage. The Executioner will perform Final Judgment and the Survivor will be executed.
