Grim Embrace

The Artist

Whenever you Hook a Survivor for the first time, earn 1 Token. When you move 16m away from the hooked Survivor, all Generators are blocked for 6/8/10s. When you have 4 Tokens, when you move 16m away from the hooked Survivor: All Generators are blocked for 40s. You see the Obsession's Aura for 10s.

Hex: Pentimento

The Artist

You see the Auras of cleansed Totems, and can rekindle each once. Within 16m, Survivors see the Auras of Rekindled Totems. While a Totem is rekindled, Survivors heal and repair 20% slower, plus 1/2/3% for each additional Rekindled Totem. When all 5 Totems are rekindled at once, they are blocked.

When the trial starts: 4 random Hooks become Scourge Hooks. You earn 4 Tokens. The first time each Survivor is hooked on a Scourge Hook, spend 1 Token, then the Generator with the most progress: Explodes, loses 10/15/20% progress and starts regressing. Survivors repairing it scream.
