Gameplay
Sayori is a playable character in Dimensional Coalescence.
She is classed as a Support, Healer, and Mobility survivor.
Her designated role is Middle Court.

Characteristics
Not much is known about Sayori's character within Dimensional Coalescence.
She is seen to be remorseful and afraid given off her dialogue.
She also witnessed Yuri's downfall which may have messed her up mentally, it is not known how she became friends with Cream or met Sans.
The only confirmed piece of lore is that she uses her Kindness soul to guide others throughout the chaos.
Sanity Meter

Keybind: N/A
Cooldown: N/A

Gradually depletes while Sayori is around an Executioner who has recently let out an attack, and refills when out of their range.
While the meter below 50%, the Cheer ability is locked, and Scream is unlocked in its place; the reverse happens while it is above 50%.
Heal

Keybind: Q
Cooldown: 50s

Creates an area, in which survivors recover health at the rate of 2 per 0.5 seconds. This equates to 20 health points maximum.
If Sayori is attacked with specific abilities, the ability ends prematurely; every attack counts, except for Jump Attack, Frenzy, and Slash.
When under the effect of ACT, healing rate increases to 3 health points per 0.5 seconds. This equates to 30 health points maximum.
Cheer

Keybind: F
Cooldown: 21s

Creates an area around Sayori, in which survivors have their cooldowns recharge at a faster rate.
Sayori gets a small speed boost for 10 seconds from activation. This ability is locked while Sayori's Sanity Meter is below 50%.
Scream

Keybind: E
Cooldown: 30s

Sayori screams, highlighting herself to every player as result, and gets a long speed boost.
This ability is only unlocked while Sayori's Sanity Meter is below 50%.
Extras
PROS
  • Most powerful in terms of healing.
  • Cheer helps teammates prepare for chases, or rescue other teammates.
CONS
  • Has to heavily rely on her team for safety.
  • Has poor self-defense in chases.
  • Cannot directly help teammates get out of chases.
  • Unlocking Scream requires either good and consistent juking skills, or taking a hit.

    Furthermore, most of the Executioners' mobility options can be used to catch up with Sayori while she is using Scream.
TIPS
  • When using Heal, prioritize healing teammates to the point of being able to sustain an extra M1 attack before their health bar empties.

    If one such attack is landed, this also allows the teammate to get an extra speed boost.
  • Use any opportunity to safely heal yourself and/or other teammates.
  • Cheer can situationally help in chases with its small speed boost.
  • When going against Yuri, note that every frenzy hit of hers will deduct the same amount of sanity as a normal m1 hit, this can be good or bad depending on the situation.
