You forget about me? - Renato Lyra

Description

You are not usually the centre of attention and in some cases, this can be a good thing.
Whenever another Survivor is picked up, Background Player activates for 10 seconds.
Starting to run while it is active causes the following effect:
- Grants a +50 % Haste Status Effect for 5 seconds.
Background Player causes the Exhausted Status Effect for 30/25/20 seconds.
Background Player cannot be used when Exhausted.

Our take

The moment someone else is picked up, you have a 10 second window in which starting to run grants a +50% Haste Status Effect for 5 seconds. It hands you 30/25/20 seconds of Exhausted to do it, and it is unavailable while you are already Exhausted.

How to use it Fits almost any chase, since someone is nearly always going onto a hook. Weigh the 30/25/20 seconds of Exhausted, because it cannot be used at all while you are already Exhausted.

Best for Lithe, Adrenaline, Sprint Burst and Vigil sit alongside it, and the set reads as a Survivor escape package. It belongs on a Survivor whose escape plan is to be useful during someone else's chase.
