The Singularity

"A dark crystalline structure in an ancient ruin gifted — or perhaps cursed — HUX with sentience.
He built a new body, and with it, a terrifying way to bend the rules of physics to his benefit."

SPECIAL ABILITY: QUANTUM INSTANTIATION
The Singularity starts the Trial with 8 Biopods in his inventory.
Placing additional Biodpods will recycle the oldest one.

SPECIAL ABILITY: SHOOTING BIOPODS
Press the Power button to bring up his gun, indicating available target locations on the HUD.
Press the Attack button to shoot a Biopod:

• Shoot it at an available target location within 22 metres to place it.


• Shoot it at an already placed Biopod to remove it.


• Shoot it at a Slipstreamed Survivor to teleport to them.

The Auras of Biopods are revealed to The Singularity at all times.

SPECIAL INTERACTION: CONTROLLING BIODPODS
Press the Secondary Power button to control a Biodpod, taking on its POV and allowing The Singularity to observe the environment and Survivors through it.
Press and hold the Secondary Power button instead to activate auto-aim, causing the controlled Biopod to target the nearest Survivor in range:

• Press or press and hold the Secondary Power button again while aiming at another Biodpod to control it instead.


• Press the Power button to return to the previously controlled Biopod, which is highlighted in yellow for 10 seconds after leaving it.


• Press the Interaction button to exit the currently controlled Biodpod and return to The Singularity.


• Press the Attack button while controlling a disabled Biopod to destroy it, taking 0.75 seconds.

If a Survivor is within Line of Sight of a controlled Biopod, as well as within a distance of 20 metres, their outline is highlighted in white and aiming the reticule at them will begin to tag them with Temporal Slipstream, unless they hide or move out of range.

Biopods indicate their current state while controlling them based on the colour of the HUD:

• Overclock Green: Biopod is idle or tagging a Survivor with Temporal Slipstream.


• Temporal Purple: Biopod is charging a Slipstream Teleport.


• White: Biopod is on cool-down.


• Red: Biopod is being destroyed by The Singularity or disabled from an EMP.

SPECIAL AFFLICTION: TEMPORAL SLIPSTREAM
Successfully tagging a Survivor with Temporal Slipstream makes them vulnerable to the Teleportation Power of The Singularity
Temporal Slipstream spreads to other Survivors within 6 metres over the duration of 2 seconds.

A Survivor receiving Temporal Slipstream from a Biopod or a nearby Slipstreamed Survivor triggers Killer Instinct for 3 seconds.

SPECIAL ABILITY: SLIPSTREAM TELEPORTATION
The Singularity can perform a Slipstream Teleport to any Slipstreamed Survivor by either aiming the reticule of a controlled Biopod at them or shooting them directly with a Biopod.

Teleporting through the path of a dropped Pallet instantly breaks it and momentarily slows The Singularity.

Performing a Slipstream Teleport automatically puts The Singularity into Overclock Mode.

SPECIAL STATE: OVERCLOCK MODE
Overclock Mode lasts for 5.7 seconds and grants the following effects to the The Singularity:

• Grants a +3 % Haste Status Effect.


• The Singularity cannot be stunned with a Pallet.
  
  • Attempting to do so will instantly break the Pallet and only momentarily slow The Singularity.
  
  
  • Any carried Survivors will not be released from his grasp.


• Increases the Action speeds for breaking Breakable Walls and dropped Pallets, and vaulting Windows by +75 %.

SPECIAL ITEM: ELECTROMAGNETIC PULSE DEVICE
A total of 4 Supply Cases are placed throughout the environment, each containing an EMP.
The Auras of Supply Cases are revealed to all Survivors within 28 metres, who are not already carrying an EMP:

• The Aura is revealed in white while printing.


• The Aura is revealed in yellow when reaching the Printing limit.

Using an EMP has the following effects within its Area of Effect of 10 metres:

• Removes Temporal Slipstream from all nearby Survivors.


• Disables all nearby Biopods for 45 seconds.
