Twisted Masquerade 2024 Introduces the NPC Tryks (Jezabel)
The character of Tryks has been mentioned in lore entries during previous Twisted Masquerade events, but she has never been featured inDead By Daylightuntil now.Lore is a big deal inDead By DaylightandJezabel is said to be a huge fan of the Entity, hosting the Twisted Masquerade annually in its honor. She is not a playable Killer, but instead appears randomly throughout the Trial to encourage Survivors and Killers to enjoy the festivities during. As a first for the Twisted Masquerade event, players can choose whether to engage in the gameplay in a separate lobby queue. If not, players can continue regular Trials without all the glitz and glamor.
A new gameplay mechanic called Bag of Tryks will trigger at the beginning of the Trial and once more after a Survivor is hooked or a Generator is completed.Bag of Tryks adds various special effectsto characters and disables them during the Endgame Collapse. As in previous years, theDead By Daylightevent features Masquerade Pillars complete with Invitation Scrolls that grant one Token per Scroll towards the Event Ability, which can spawn pallets, imbue characters with temporary Endurance, and more. Twisted Masquerades typically run until mid-July, so players have a whole month to enjoy the party.
