Survivors

		I am not alone. If you set aside the killers. I have found others. Survivors that are just like me. Or at least I believe so, I want to believe so. Sometimes I manage to just catch a glimpse of a poor soul as he gets carried away. Others I have actually told my name. I do not always want to know their names. It makes it harder as they hang from the hook. I help them...sometimes. Just as they help me. Fear is our common denominator. And we bond. We have nobody else. Human contact and interaction sooths this trial we share. I ask myself whether I am better off alone, or if we can come farther together. Sometimes I bare shame as I sneak away from screams. But I have equally often been on the other side, hanging two feet off the ground, whereas I see someone, watching from shrubbery. Like a witness. Maybe it is important to watch, and remind oneself that pain is not the only thing that burdens our lives at this point? But also our souls. Do we deserve to live if we were to escape?
		~ Benedict Baker's Journal

Survivors are Characters in Dead by Daylight .

Overview

It is highly recommended to thoroughly read up on both Killers and Survivors to fully understand both sides. For tips on playing Survivor, please refer to this section of the Wiki: Playing Survivor: Tips and Tricks

		I fear I cannot escape this place, nor can I escape being stalked through these woods. I can only survive.
		~ Benedict Baker

The Survivors' task is to try and escape from the Realms of The Entity in which they are trapped. In order to do so, Survivors must complete the following tasks:

• Repair 5 Generators to power the 2 Exit Gates .
• Open at least one of the Exit Gates and leave the Trial Grounds or escape through the Hatch .

Meanwhile, the Killer will be trying to locate, catch and hook Survivors in order to sacrifice them to The Entity.

Even though Survivors are vulnerable, they have a very useful set of core abilities to hide and escape from the Killer.

When the Exit Gates are powered, instantly heal one Health State and sprint at 150 % of your normal Running speed for 5 seconds. Adrenaline is on hold if you are disabled at the moment it triggers and will instead activate upon being freed. If playing against The Nightmare , Adrenaline will wake you from the Dream World upon activation.
