I pitched this idea to Numbers previously however it's not something worth putting development time into before the launch, so this is an afterthought.
Suggestion: Add the beta Stalker model to the Nebulous Xenian pack and introduce them as an IC punishment for Loyalists who have failed spectacularly but did not betray the Combine.
Their pre-PK punishment is to be surgically altered in an "Archo-flagellant Stalker", using the OW naming convention they would be something like
CMB:PRIME-SERVITOR.420
These stalkers would be deposited into the wasteland and thereon take up a similar role as zombie characters, wandering the map and hunting for prey to eviscerate (more likely be killed by) and add to the disturbing atmosphere of the server. Stalkers in the HL2 Beta were originally enemies Gordon would fight before even reaching the Citadel
The expectation for these characters is that the player will eventually delete to finalise their PK, or a staff member will manually PK them after a certain number of deaths as to not overpopulate the server with these characters.
Why it would be worth adding: Would make for some atmospheric and entertaining encounters, as well as a more fitting death for failed Loyalists, their last opportunity to do some damage to their enemies before they meet their final death.
Necessary content: I do not have a specific addon that includes the Beta stalker, their are many and often come with the original animations rigged, they can be easily found on the workshop.
