![]() ![]() Girls she would take back to her house, deep in the woods. But she could never bring herself to kill the little girls. ![]() She liked to collect their tools and colourful garments and especially toys when there were little ones. Unlucky souls who strayed into her territory were slaughtered like any other animal. When unsuspecting travellers came through her woods, she discovered her new favourite prey: humans. Eventually she grew tired of them and hunted more dangerous animals like wolves and bears. She worked her way up through squirrels, hares, mink and foxes. ![]() She widened her territory and lived off her hunts. As she grew into a dangerous predator, her humanity became a half-remembered dream. She got older and stronger and practised her hunt. She followed her instincts and became one with the wild. Still a child, she knew just enough about life in the frozen forest to survive. Eventually she stood up and started the long walk back home. They stayed like that, the huntress and the elk getting quieter and colder, until Anna was alone in the silent forest. To distract her from the dying elk’s cries, Anna’s mother held her and hummed her favourite lullaby. The beast collapsed.Īnna was too small to move her mother’s broken body, so she sat with her in the clearing where she had fallen. With a sickening crack, the antlers snapped and Anna’s mother was free. With all her strength, she brought her axe down on its head again and again while it tried to shake her loose.

The spectre of starvation frightened them more than any forest creature. They knew it was dangerous prey, but it had been a particularly difficult winter and they were almost out of food. Drifting off to sleep with stories and lullabies, she dreamt happy dreams, ignorant of the events that would soon change everything.Īnna and her mother were stalking a great elk through the woods. Close to the hearth’s warmth, Anna would rest in her mother's arms, surrounded by the few wooden toys and masks she had crafted for her. When sunlight became too dim for productive activities, they would take refuge in their house, a sturdy old cabin constructed to resist the toughest winters. Living in such an extremely remote and dangerous area required skill and resilience. ![]() She was introduced as the Killer of CHAPTER 5: A Lullaby for the Dark, a free Chapter DLC released on 27 July 2017.Īdditional Lore can be found in Tome 3 - Escalation: A Lovely War.Īs soon as Anna was able to walk, her mother started teaching her how to survive a harsh, solitary life in the northern woods. There is something else in her too, she seems to seek something.Īnna (Russian: Анна) or "The Huntress" is one of 33 Killers currently featured in Dead by Daylight. But her knack for tracking, capturing and killing is something else here. In any other place one could deem it a talent. I have met many different beings in this place, but this is the first one with a natural skill of hunting. This new foe holds something human within her. ![]()
