The Daylight update adds new characters

Behavior Interactive releases another original chapter for Dead by Dead that introduces new characters to its hit horror game.

Tomie: A beautiful but terrifying immortal monster

On the surface, Tomie Kawakami looks like nothing more than an unusually beautiful young woman with black hair and a distinct beauty mark under her eyes. But, in reality, he is an inhuman, immortal monster with an infinite capacity for cruelty. Her origins are mysterious, but she appears to be a demonic, succubus-like creature who can either drive people crazy with her or simply by spending enough time in her presence.

Tommy's primary powers include obsession in men and the ability to induce paranoid, terrifying hysteria in women. Affected individuals will commit deviant acts of violence, including murder and cannibalism. A person who is targeted by a tomi, especially a female, can potentially transform into another copy of tomi, especially if they come into contact with her blood (such as through a blood transfusion.) If the tomi himself dies, he will simply regenerate; She is able to “sprout” extra tumors from her own body, similar to reproducing tumors.

Tomi is one of Junji Ito's most frequently seen characters

Junji Ito introduced Tomi to the world in 1987, when a series of short stories featuring him were published in the magazine. Monthly Halloween. Since then, he has produced a number of Tomie-centric anthologies; She has also made cameos in stories alongside some of her other iconic characters, such as the curse-loving child Suchi.

Tommy's stories have been adapted into a series of live-action films, called television dramas Tomie: Another face, and a novel title Tomie: Replay. Episodes featuring Tomie appeared in both 2018 animated anthologies The Junji Ito Collection and its 2023 successor Junji Ito is crazy, which aired on Netflix. A Tomie series was also planned for the television platform Quibi, but its fate remains unclear following Quibi's shutdown in 2020.
