— PERKS

FOR THE PEOPLE RANK III You risk life and injury for others. For the People is only active while at full health. Press the Active Ability button while healing another Survivor without a Med-Kit to instantly heal them from Dying to Injured, or from Injured to Healthy. You become Injured and receive the Broken Status Effect for 110/100/90 seconds. You become the Obsession. Reduces the odds of being the Obsession. The Killer can only be obsessed with one Survivor at a time. How it works ICly: Zarina absorbs the damage done to a fellow survivor by touching them, and then as they heal she gains their wounds. feels how it happened. Understands how they nearly bleed out. "We can write our own story and decide how it really ends." — Zarina Kassir

RED HERRING RANK III You've noticed that people pay attention to whatever makes the loudest noise. After repairing a Generator for at least 3 seconds, it will be highlighted to you with a yellow Aura. The Generator stays highlighted until it is fully repairing, or you repair a new Generator, or enter a Locker. Entering any Locker will trigger a Loud Noise indicator for the Killer at the highlighted Generator's location. Red Herring can only be triggered once every 100/80/60 seconds. How it works ICly: Zarina intentionally sabotages part of the generator, giving herself a small timer to hide before it explodes. The generator doesn't regress because the explosion occurs at an isolated part. "The news edit out what is burdensome and complex, which is the truth." — Zarina Kassir

OFF THE RECORD RANK III You've learnt that a quiet approach is sometimes best. Once you are unhooked or escape from the Hook, Off the Record activates for 60/70/80 seconds. While Off the Record is active, your Aura will not be shown to the Killer and Grunts of Pain caused by injuries are reduced by 100 %. How it works ICly: Zarina's seen plenty of things and silences herself while trying to keep herself safe and out of the scene so that the killer doesn't find her. "Trust me, I investigate thoroughly and discreetly." — Zarina Kassir
