Dead by Daylight’s new killer Adriana is an evil tech CEO

Say hello to The Skull Merchant.

Dead by Daylight‘s newest killer is a unique character named Adriana Imai, aka The Skull Merchant. Best yet, she’s following in the footsteps of Glass Onion‘s Miles Bron by being an evil tech CEO.

Or, you know, we could liken Imai to a couple real-life examples, but we’ll leave you to do that yourself.

“A wealthy high-powered tech executive, [Imai] splits her life between aggressively buying and absorbing smaller companies as her public persona, and quenching her bloodlust in the guise of her alter ego,” developer Behaviour Interactive said of the character.

“For The Skull Merchant, the thrill is truly in the hunt. With designs on becoming an apex hunter in a world of prey, she dedicates her ample resources towards the search for worthy adversaries to pit herself against.”

Imai is joined by two new survivors, siblings Thalita and Renato Lyra.

“A direct contrast of values from the brutal single-mindedness of The Skull Merchant, Thalita and Renato served as beacons of light within their community, using their kite-flying business to mentor children from the area,” Behaviour Interactive continued. “Positive, creative, and caring, working as a team is second nature to the siblings, making them ideal additions to any group of Survivors.”

The new characters will be added to Dead by Daylight as part of its Tools of Torment update on 7 March; get a taste of what to expect below.

Dead by Daylight is currently available on Windows PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X, PS4, PS5 and Switch.
