Lore

CA charPreview

Whether killers perform their heinous acts by the compulsions of their diseased minds, or if they are forced into them by external pressures, has long been a matter of debate. But for one killer, nature and nurture are inextricably linked.

Leatherface kills not from a desire to exert his will over others, to satisfy carnal urges, or even to quiet the voices in his head. He kills because he is scared. Scared that others will hurt him; scared that his family will be displeased with him, scared that their shared willingness to eat human flesh will be discovered.

He does as he is told. His family loves him and that is all that matters. Outsiders are a threat, and threats need to be dealt with.

Like those kids that came into the house, uninvited. Walked in like they owned the place. Looked around the house, trying to find out his family’s secrets, no doubt. But Leatherface deals with them, and protects his family just as he’s been taught.

He is not just protector, he has many roles, and each role has its own face. He serves dinner, cares for the family, and dresses well when they eat. His Grandpa and Ma used to care for them all, but Grandpa, he is old now and Ma has been still for a while, so Leatherface and his brothers had to take over. Family is everything to him. Family is security and safety.

But, even though he did his best, one of the kids got away. He tried to stop her, chasing after her as fast as he could, but she had help: another outsider, driving a truck. The evil trucker killed his brother, ran him over like he was a possum. In a fury, Leatherface leapt at him, the saw ready to avenge his family, but the trucker was too quick. He knocked Leatherface aside and turned his own saw against him.

As he watched the outsiders driving away, the rage, grief and pain combined with the worry about what would happen to his family now. They would surely return with the police, and the police would take his brothers, his Grandpa. Without them, what would he do? Without their commands, he would wither and die.

As his world collapsed, Leatherface spun in circles, swinging the saw all around, trying to fight off the myriad external threats that surrounded him.

Then another feeling overtook him. It came from outside his vision, crawling over his skin with cold dread. He realised that no matter what outsiders could do to him, there was something worse, something bigger that lived in the shadows. He was filled with a terror unlike any he had ever felt before. But it was almost comforting, like the fear he'd felt with his family. The fear of disappointing them.

He was brought to a place that was familiar but unknowable, and he instinctively knew what he had to do. He couldn't fail it, the way he had his family. Outsiders would come but he would use his skills to overcome any threats. There would be screaming, but he could make the world quiet again. Until the only sound remaining was the blessed howl of the saw.

Let the outsiders come.

DLC

The Cannibal is part of 1 DLC:


History

Original Power

BUBBA'S CHAINSAW:
Press and hold the Power button to charge the Chainsaw:

  • Start a timed Chainsaw Sweep upon activation.
    • Can hit multiple Survivors in one Chainsaw Sweep.
  • The Chainsaw Sweep stops automatically after 7 swings or upon bumping into an object.
    • Bumping into an object forces The Cannibal into a Tantrum, whereupon he wildly swings his Chainsaw around.
  • Survivors hit by Bubba's Chainsaw are automatically put into the Dying StateIconHelp dying.

Power Trivia:

  • Bubba's Chainsaw has default charge and cool-down times of 2 seconds.
  • The Cannibal's Tantrum has a default duration of 5 seconds.
  • The Chainsaw Noise can be heard within 60 metres.

Original Add-ons

Up to his rework in Patch 4.1.0, The Cannibal shared most of his Add-ons with The HillbillyIconHelpLoading hillbilly, with few exceptions:

Retired Cosmetics

Prior to Patch 5.5.0, The Cannibal was able to acquire Masks of each of the original four Survivors.
They have since been removed and are no longer obtainable to Players.
This change was motivated by issues with racism in post-game chats in conjunction with Claudette's Mask[1].

All Players who had played at least one game with The Cannibal at any point since his original release, were recompensed for the removal of the Masks with 6,000 Iridescent Shards.

Change Log

Patch 1.7.2

  • Nerf: BloodlustIconHelp bloodlust no longer affects The Cannibal's revving speed.

Patch 3.1.0

  • QoL: adjusted the cool-down for successful Chainsaw attacks to be the same as for missed attacks (adjusted Movement speed and reduced duration from 3 seconds to 2 seconds).

Patch 4.1.0

  • Rework: reworked Bubba's ChainsawIconPowers bubbasChainsaw and the majority of its Add-onsIconHelp addons.
    • Buff: added Charges to Bubba's Chainsaw, allowing him to extend the duration of his Chainsaw Sweep by consuming Charges as well as increase its speed.
    • Buff: increased movement speed during Chainsaw Sweep from 5.06 m/s to 5.29 m/s.
    • Buff: removed the secondary action to initiate a Chainsaw Sweep when the revving bar is fully charged, allowing it to activate as soon as the bar is completely full.
    • Nerf: added a cool-down after missing a Chainsaw Sweep, with the duration dependent on the number of Charges consumed during the respective Chainsaw Sweep.
    • QoL: downing a Survivor with Bubba's Chainsaw does not inflict the same cool-down as when performing a missed Chainsaw Sweep, regardless of the number of Charges spent.
    • Nerf: disables Bubba's Chainsaw if no charges are available and must wait for them to replenish.
    • Nerf: added a Tantrum meter, causing The Cannibal to enter a Tantrum for revving Bubba's Chainsaw for too long without initiating a Chainsaw Sweep.
    • Nerf: added an extended cool-down towards Tantrum that is dependent on the number of Charges consumed when running into an obstacle.
    • Nerf: entering a Tantrum by any means depletes all Charges and disables Bubba's Chainsaw until the Tantrum ends.
    • QoL: Tantrum cool-down is unchanged if The Cannibal runs to an obstacle after downing a Survivor during the same Chainsaw Sweep.
    • QoL: Tantrum meter immediately depletes after cancelling revving Bubba's Chainsaw.
    • Change: reworked add-ons so The Cannibal no longer shares them with The HillbillyIconHelpLoading hillbilly, making them exclusive to The Cannibal.

Patch 5.5.0

  • Change: removed the Survivor Masks of the original four Survivors that could be unlocked by sacrificing them 25 times each.
    • This change was motivated by issues with racism in post-game chats in conjunction with Claudette's mask[2].

Patch 7.3.0

  • Nerf: Survivors benefitting from the Endurance Status Effect are immune from being hit a second time by a Chainsaw Sweep within 0.5 seconds.
    • This prevents The Cannibal from downing a freshly unhooked Survivor immediately below the Hook, before that Survivor had a chance to run away.

  • During a Tantrum, The Cannibal's speed is reduced to about that of The NurseIconHelpLoading nurse when she is blink fatigued.
  • The Cannibal's Memento Mori animation was the first one in which the Survivor attempts to get up on their own.
  • The Cannibal's Memento Mori is a reference to Kirk's death in the original film.

  • The Cannibal is one of the most human-looking Killers in the game, as he doesn't have any unnatural alterations to his appearance like most of the other Killers.

  • According to The Cannibal's Lore, he was taken directly after the events of the first movie from 1974.
    • However, due to the fact that he is named as "Bubba Sawyer" and there are references to "Drayton" and "Nubbins", Dead by Daylight's version technically originates from the second movie from 1986.
    • The Add-ons ChilliIconAddon chilli and Award-winning ChilliIconAddon award-winningChilli reference a scene from the start of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 where Drayton wins a chilli-cookoff with human chilli.
