SURVIVOR DOSSIER // TERROR AT LAKE ELAINE
CLAIRE HOLLOWAY
A tension engine — Claire gets stronger as the situation gets worse. Her Speed counters the Angler's pull and trap mechanics, and her unlock transforms her into the unstoppable force of the final act.
Balanced survivor with strong endgame potential
- Gains power as allies fall
- Versatile card pool
- Strong comeback mechanics

INNATE ABILITY
WILL TO SURVIVE
While you have 3 or fewer Health, gain +1 to all tests.
Unique to the Final Girl archetype: when the group has rescued 3 Victims, survival hardens into resolve. The unlock happens once per game and cannot be taken away.
LAKE'S VENGEANCE
Your Fight tests at water locations get +3.
SOLE SURVIVOR
When you are the only player at your location: +1 to all tests, and your first basic action each turn costs 0.

SURVIVOR'S GUILT
IMMEDIATE
Triggers immediately when drawn. Lose 3 Sanity. Heal 2 Health.
She lived. She didn't know why. She'd stopped asking and started running.
CAN'T STOP RUNNING
FORCED PLAY
Enters your hand; must be played as your next action. Move to an adjacent location (you scatter off your position) and lose 1 Health from the headlong scramble (does not trigger Counterattack).
Her legs decided before she did. She was three rooms away before the fear caught up.
OLD WOUNDS
LINGERING
Lingers in hand and cannot be discarded normally. While here, you are Exposed (take +1 damage from all sources). Remove it by spending an action to pass a Strength (3) test, or it clears automatically when you drop to 1 HP.
The scar across her ribs ached when the cold came in. It remembered the last one too.
