Daimon's Notes - Restored
This note was written by Daimon, Walther's frenemy. It was found soaked in muddied water and has since been partially rewritten through conjecture.
I normally don't write about this kind of stuff, but nobody in my crew will possibly believe me; not even Walther himself in all his glorious stupidity. I was out on a shipping run to gather resources before our inevitable departure from this ill-fated city when I came across a sound from atop one of the skyscrapers. My mate stood guard as I went to grab my weapon. But alas, it was too late. The minute I turned my back on the poor man, he was snatched up by a nearby Smoker and tossed to one of those hooded beasts for consumption. You wouldn't believe me - hell, you can't believe me, but I swear on all things holy that they were in kahoots with one another. This beast who was clad in dark garments and as horrifying as all things of wicked nature from god's book lept as high as a three-story building as it traversed from rooftop to rooftop hungrily searching for its next of prey. Unfortunately, it was me who he was after following the demise of my squad mate as he chased me down the dark streets of New Bloxcoast. God bless Walther's men working on getting a manhole cover open who stood ready and abled as they drove that abhorrent beast back to the farthest reaches of the city. As I forgot to mention, you still would not believe me if I told you it flashed me a terrifyingly devilish smirk as it was driven away.
Background Story
Believed to be drug addicts prior to the apocalypse, Hunters are horrifying beasts capable of scaling up to immeasurable heights as they leap down onto streets below to consume the next of their victims.
As stated before from their status prior to the apocalypse as drug addicts, they carry with them remnants of drugs such as cocaine, methamphetamine, acid, and a variety of other uppers utilized to provide quick boosts of energy. However, it seems this effect is permanent on these beasts.
Walkthrough
Hunters, as the name implies, hunt their prey. All Hunters don't seem to know how to walk like any other Zombie or survivor, so they crawl, which unfortunately makes them easily vulnerable to bullets due to its slow speed on ground. But when it jumps, it jumps high; high enough to completely jump 30 studs if done right. The super high jump means it is difficult to shoot them in mid-air, giving them an advantage to get the chance and catch its prey. If landed on its prey successful, the hunter will start to rip apart the survivor with a unbelievable amount of damage, killing him in seconds. Most survivors doesn't escape alive if they aren't in a team. The Hunters are considered the hunting class of the game.
