Violetta

"The curtain will never close on excellent performers. Miss Violetta's latest performance, Wonder Spider, is now showing! Of course, we strongly advise against watching it up close."

Background
Violetta was once a famous freak show performer, later reduced to performing in third-rate circuses after the audience lost interest in her. She's always wanted to get back on stage and once again become the much-anticipated star. With the help of a mechanic, Violetta installed flexible mechanical prostheses and a few sophisticated gadgets on herself and created a new show—Human Spider Show. Her old boss refused to let her perform, but Violetta didn't give up. She has accepted an invitation to perform, and is going to hold her comeback show at Oletus Manor. Of course, for safety reasons, audiences shouldn't watch it up close.

Overview
Violetta can use her webs to speed herself up and slow Survivors down. The webs can only be placed on solid surfaces and has a limited wingspan. Survivors who kite in open areas are harder to catch.

By saving up webs and using them quickly when finding a Survivor, it is easier to catch them. Webs can also be placed around rocket chairs with Survivors in them to slow down the Rescuer or the Survivor after they have been rescued.

Violetta can also shoot webs at Survivors from a distance to deal damage. These webs give the Survivor x0.25 damage. By combining the web shot with a Detention Hit, Violetta can incapacitate a Mercenary.

Violetta can also tie Survivors up in Cocoon when the player feels that the Survivor might struggle free anytime soon or when there is no Rocket Chairs nearby. The Cocoon works like a Rocket Chair and Survivors can untie the Cocoons to rescue their teammates. Survivors can struggle and move slightly while in a cocoon, but this increases their Cocoon countdown. It is not advisable to move while in a Cocoon.

Violetta as a Hunter has a slightly slower walking speed, but she makes up for her this with her webs.

2020 Character Day Letter
Letter to an Old Friend

Dear Violetta:

My dear! I was really surprised by your letter!

While I haven't heard of the "Hullabaloo" Circus you mentioned, we're happy to know that you're doing well. We trust that those who have taken you in are kind people like us.

Betty and the others were really worried on the day you left. The way you worked hard in your performance, mended clothes, clumsily standing on a ball, and rolling around comically... I can't imagine who else would accept you other than us.

Winter is quite harsh this year. Please take care. Those peculiar joints of yours after your reconstruction would get rusty and painful. They would even make troubling sounds in the middle of the night. But at least you get to crawl around now. As you mentioned, you should be really grateful to the person who reconstructed your body. I have no idea how they managed to fix those ugly and horrifying limbs of yours.

Oh right, we are doing well. Do you remember how we were always in financial trouble since our show was outdated? We couldn't afford proper clothes, let alone proper food. But after you left, things got better day by day. Max even bought wine for everyone to thank them for their hard work... Sigh, that wine was pretty good. If only you were here.

Another new year is around the corner. Thank you for writing to me. You should take care of yourself as well, dear Violetta! We've been quite lonely since you left.

I'll stop here now as I still have to prepare dinner for tonight. Max also wanted to discuss the new year's show with me as my performance is going to be the highlight. Damn it, I really want to stay out of this. It's so annoying.

Happy new year, Violetta.

Missing you,

Barbara

Playing As

 * 1) Survivors are slowed down drastically while stepping in cobwebs while Violetta gains speed boosts, place cobwebs around the kiting area to catch up with the Survivor easily. Note that the cobwebs stacked on the Survivors are nullified after hitting them and Survivors can wait for the cobwebs to wear off or remove them themselves. When removing cobwebs, Survivors cannot move.
 * 2) Use webs only while chasing Survivors and save up webs.
 * 3) If you use Peeper in the match, you will have a robust surveillance system.
 * 4) Try not to use Cocoon Death and use your String to make cobwebs instead as Cocoon Death functions the exact same way as Rocket Chairs. Only use Cocoon Death if there are no Rocket Chairs nearby or when you feel that the Survivor might struggle free.
 * 5) Be sure to practice shooting her webs from a distance. A lot of veteran Spider players can shoot webs even from an impressive distance.
 * 6) The basement stairs is a huge advantage to the spider. You can stack webs on the basement stairs to slow down any survivors trying to rescue teammates from the basement and hit them twice before they are able to reach their teammate.
 * 7) Shooting a web can counter the Gardener's shield. If she uses her shield to rescue, shoot a web and try to terror shock if she's on full health, or just simply hit her if she's on half health

Countering

 * 1) Be aware of her ranged melee attack. If she is following you closely, don't try to vault objects but change direction rapidly instead so her aim is drastically decreased.
 * 2) It is not advisable to remove cobwebs you run into while kiting as you cannot move when removing cobwebs. Instead, create distance with pallets and wait for the cobwebs to wear off.
 * 3) When saving, especially if you are on full health, remove all cobwebs in the vicinity to provide a clear escape route for your teammate. Additionally, while incapacitated, Survivors can still remove cobwebs when crawling into them. The cobwebs have no effect while Survivors are incapacitated.
 * 4) Try not to vault windows and pallets on full health when slowed down by cobwebs as Violetta can terror shock you due to your slow vaulting speed.
 * 5) Violetta cannot use her webs in open areas. For example, the carousel in Moonlit Park. However, the Hunter still has fast speed and can catch up slowly.

Trivia

 * She is the only hunter who has more than one way to kill a survivor.
 * She sings.
 * Violetta is based on Aloisia Wagner, a freak show performer who has "Violetta" for a stage name. She was born without legs or arms with a condition known as Tetra-Amelia syndrome.
 * Her birthday is 2nd of January.
 * She is interested in freak shows, as she was in one herself.
 * She is skillful at weaving.
 * She loves tents and dolls.
 * She hates sunlight and fire.
 * She is described as quiet, jealous and patient.
 * In the Chinese BETA similar to The Ripper she had a different carrying animation; she would lift up survivors behind her, tie them up and carry them on her back.
