Slaughter Demons are large, armour-plated monsters sent from the depths of hell to steal the souls of the crew in a very violent fashion. They can use blood to travel quickly, possess a pair of large blades in place of arms, and can fully heal by eating downed crewmembers.
Summoning a Being from Hell
There are a two ways a Slaughter Demon may enter the station to terrorize it. It can be summoned onto the overworld with a mystical summoning item by a Wizard foolish enough to do so, or through a major Midround roll that lets spirits take over the role of a blood thirsty spawn of Satan. "Demon" needs to be enabled in the Antagonists panel in order to get a chance to play as a Slaughter Demon.
Demonology 101
These spawns of Satan have plenty to show for themselves. Their thick scaly armor provides plenty of protection, but also slows them down, leaving them vulnerable at range. Sharp dagger-like claws let them mercilessly feast on mortals who get in their way, with the only way to retrieve them being killing the demon. They are able to traverse terrain easily if it's covered with blood through phasing into a pocket dimension, though the station Janitors will be more than happy to know their effort can lock out the demon from coming out of it's safe zone.
Types of Demons
Abilities
Demon Heart
A heart still beating with hatred and malice obtained by killing a Slaughter Demon. Eating it provides the Blood Crawl ability to the consumer, and feasting on a second one awakens a thirst within them that lets them devour corpses with it.
Bloodletting in Style
You don't have a lot to choose from in your toolkit as a Slaughter Demon, only getting powerful slashes and your Blood Crawl to move freely around blood piles. Even without millions of unique abilities, you can still be a large threat with careful planning. Moving nearly instantaneously between areas and cracking skulls with a single punch leaves for a deadly combination that can be utilized better with these tips:
- The smallest drop of blood can be used to Blood Crawl. Phase out of paper cuts!
- Target crew with access to cleaning equipment. They are your number one threat that might leave you with no blood to phase in with, leaving you trapped until they miss a drop.
- Spread blood by dragging corpses before feasting on them. It will give a harder time for the crew to clean it all up before you appear again, giving you plenty of chances to ambush once more.
- Force close quarters battles. Due to your slow speed, you cannot dodge or go up to ranged attackers easily, leaving you vulnerable at range.
- You don't need to kill people to devour them, they just have to be unconscious!
- Steal hurt crew away from Medical teams. Lowering the amount of crew able to fight you benefits you greatly, so make sure to steal as many as you can!
- Attack at least one person before phasing out. The crew are more likely to target spools of blood you just used, so attacking will cause more to appear without letting that spot go to waste.
- Break lights and light sources. Demons possess night vision, meaning you should create darker areas to blind the mortals.
Exorcising the Slaughter Demon
With a Slaughter Demon on the loose, it would be wise for you to spring out of your chair and go out there with a mop to aid the finally appreciated Janitor, but don't be so hasty yet! The demon has a few tricks up his sleeve to rule you into a false sense of security, before devouring you after a quick ambush. These tips should help you on your demon-removing adventure:
- Prioritize weaponry that deals the most damage per hit. Demons are quick to hide after getting attacked, so you won't have a chance to give him hell if you need to unload a lot into him. Laser guns and proto pulse slugs are good to consider.
- Fight at a distance. The demon is only able to get you when you are at an arm's reach, so just never get into that range!
- Clean, clean, clean! Even if you aren't a Janitor, you will make a highly valuable asset in the battle against the demonic monster if you wipe down the blood he so desperately needs in order to appear.
- Keep your friends close! Staying in a group will prevent you from getting snatched by a demon if you are to go down, while scaring him away due to the potential of massive damage dealt by the gathering.
- Wear riot gear or other forms of anti-brute armor that will keep you safe from the demon's flesh tearing claws.
- As a Chemist or Scientist, construct cleaning grenades to temporarily prevent the demon from using Blood Crawl or to clean a large area.
