The Tumor

General Information
The Tumor is a common enemy in the House. This abomination uses its fists to beat survivors senseless and cause chaos. Moving silently and quickly through the dark, it can ambush groups of survivors and get stronger from hitting more players at once. Those unlucky enough to get a tumor planted in them or die from The Tumor's attacks will send the monster into a crazed frenzy.

Appearance
The Tumor appears as a mangled corpse, full of fleshy wounds. Bones and tendons can be seen stretching inside the gaping cuts riddling its body. Its eyeballs fling about its eye sockets, connected by thin nerves. Sharp red teeth line what appears to be a mouth. The Tumor runs awkwardly, leaving blood particles as it goes.

Monster Overview
At the start of the round, players can tell that The Tumor has spawned by the ambient theme that plays.

The Tumor attacks by crushing survivors with both of its blocky fists, and emitting a horrifying screech that gives away its location. Depending on what victim is being attacked and who The Tumor attacked last changes how the monster behaves and deals damage.

If The Tumor hits a player that they did not hit last, they will deal additional damage (~35-55 total) and an extra sound effect will play. If The Tumor hits a player that they have already struck, then they will deal low damage (~20-25).

When The Tumor hits a player, they have a 25% chance of imbuing the victim with a tumor, evident by a large hairy red sphere in the victim's chest. This tumor will last 60 seconds, draining 2 health per second while it is in the victim. Surviving long enough that the tumor despawns from your chest will award you with the "It's Not A Toomah!" badge.

If the conditions are right, The Tumor may go into a frenzied state. Survivors that are inflicted with a tumor will instantly send The Tumor into a frenzy. If The Tumor hits and sends a player into very low health or hits and kills a player, they will instantly frenzy. While frenzied, The Tumor will move at an incredibly fast pace, have fleshy trails come from its arms, and go from silent to breathing heavily. Chase music will be emitted in a radius around The Tumor, warning nearby players. The frenzy will last indefinitely until The Tumor strikes at another player.

Players hit by The Tumor while it is frenzied will fall over and take massive damage (~70-75). The Tumor's frenzy will immediately end after the hit, however, The Tumor will most likely frenzy again if it hits the stunned player and kills them. If The Tumor's frenzied hit plants a tumor in the victim, it will continue to frenzy without stopping.

Overall, the power of The Tumor against grouped victims and the incredible damage/speed of frenzy mode makes this monster a menace.
