On the flip side, Rebels will have to use disguise and morph into objects. This will allow them to camouflage with the environment. If they stay hidden until the timer expires, they will attain victory over the Hunter. Every character’s talent will be changed to new windward arts.

These arts will offer unique abilities to Rebel, who can choose from abilities like Disguise, Transparency, and Lay Bait. The disguise’s ability will allow you to transform into a randomized object. Lay Bait will place a small trap, which can obscure the hunter’s vision when they interact with it. The last spell, Transparency, will allow them to turn invisible but Rebels will lose disguise and bait and the hunter’s ability will affect them.
