Riot has two sides One where they design cutesy champions that look straight out of a Disney movie (Zoe, Yuumi, Twitch, etc.) One where they design everything that wouldn't be allowed in a Disney movie (Warwick, Urgot, Fiddlesticks, etc.) To be fair the stuff they make is still pretty cartoony, even with the more gruesome stuff, but that's just their art style.

Killer: The Ancient Fear/ The Scarecrow Ability: ??? Perk one: Reap and Sow The demon lashes out in hunger, attempting to consume every living thing it comes across. Gain 15%/20%/25% Attack and Attack Recovery Speed after failing to hit a survivor within 3 meters for 5 seconds. Increase lunge distance by 10%/15%/20% after chasing a survivor for 10 seconds. "They haven't come back from the fields it's been three days" Perk 2: Harmless Scarecrow The scarecrow doesn't even know it's there half the time, it just exists. When you haven't chased a survivor for 50/40 seconds your terror radius is reduced by 15 meters and Crows reveal the aura of any nearby survivors within 25/35ft for 4 seconds every 12 seconds. "See? It's just a scarecrow" Perk 3: Horror Fear and paranoia plague the victim's mind and causing them to always look over their shoulders. Survivors who escape a chase repair generators 50%/75%/100% slower and heal others 30% slower for 12 seconds. "It's hunting us, it knows what we're afraid of" Just my rough take on what Fiddlesticks could look like if he was a killer. Maybe someone else can do a better one
