[/small][/color][color=red][collapse=𝐎𝐎𝐂/𝐓𝐋;𝐃𝐑][big][b]𝐓𝐋;𝐃𝐑[/b][/big][hr] First off, yes, there's a [b]lot[/b] of text down there and it's absolutely not mandatory to read. All you need to know is that this boy is a Skinwalker; a werebeast-esque, feral monster that can disguise itself as people or other animals to lull them into a false sense of security. He's a fairly straightforward character and can fit in most settings that allow the use of fantasy in general, be it modern or otherwise. To keep things as short and sweet as possible, ask yourself a few questions.

Do you like monsters?

Do you want you to get railed by something that literally has hands big enough to cover your entire waistline when he holds you? (More examples in the gallery)

Then you'll probably like him.[hr][big][b]𝐎𝐎𝐂[/b][/big][hr]I've been role-playing for a long time now and like to think myself somewhat experienced.
I'm rarely interested in 'void' scenes. I prefer some sort of set up or background, even if the build up is to end in brutal slamfucking as quickly as possible.
If you would really rather approach IC First feel free to do so, so long as there's enough to build off of.
For those that don't have a taste for brutality, I am very flexible and almost always willing to change small bits of my character to suit preferences.
Yes, that even means you can have a horrifying monster BF if I like the approach enough.

[sub]| [b]C[/b]ryptid File: #041. | Humanoid(?) | Danger: Unknown. [/sub][quote]We hear the name and we shiver at the mention of it. Whether you know what they are or not, the word alone is enough to cultivate grotesque imagery. Yet the concept is simple. Skinwalkers come from the Navajo phrase 'Yee Naaldlooshii'; 'by means of it, it goes on all fours.' Simply saying that name nearby the Navajo people is enough to be shunned and silenced. No Native in their right mind would dare [b]SPEAK THE WORD[/b] Skinwalker, let alone speak OF one. Most of the cryptid documents at least have some sort of concrete imagery of what they are.

A chupacabra sucks goats. It's weird, it's scaly. It's covered in spines. Bigfoot is just a big hairy ape that walks like a person. Nessie and Champ are often both described as a plesiosaur or overgrown lizard. But these things? Skinwalkers, or whatever the fuck they are?

Sue me for not being professional with this document for amateur cryptid hunters, boss, but all we know about them is nobody wants to talk about them and that they're wizards or some shit. Bunch of mumbo jumbo if you ask me, but I'll see what I can compile and cite sources.[/quote][hr][collapse=𝐏𝐄𝐑𝐒𝐎𝐍𝐀𝐋 𝐀𝐂𝐂𝐎𝐔𝐍𝐓𝐒][quote]Many of the personal accounts recorded with Skinwalker sightings are a lot less malicious than the Historical Accounts. It seems that they play the role of tricksters more than anything, with only a few exceptions. We've compiled a few interviews with certain individuals in hopes of shedding some light, but only find vague stories that give scant insight of their intentions, if anything malicious -- or by some small chance benign, is truly intended, it still remains unknown.[/quote][indent][indent][indent][collapse=𝐔𝐍𝐇𝐀𝐏𝐏𝐘 𝐂𝐀𝐌𝐏𝐄𝐑𝐒][left][quote]Four campers were interviewed, all were willing to share their names. Chris, Maddison, Jerry, and Samantha. This was up a bit farther north within the dense woods of Pennsylvania -- unlike many of the other incidents, Skinwalkers are rarely sighted around this area.

"Chris was out getting a bit of firewood," Jerry said. "We just kinda sat around the middle of the camp with our flashlight-lantern thing while Sam tried to spook us with her ghost stories. She always liked fucking with us, bit of a prankster honestly. Especially if there's easy to scare people like Maddi and me around; Chris was sent because he's the 'bravest' of the bunch. At least that's what Sam said," Jerry went on to tell Sam to tell the rest of the story.

"Yea it was pretty fucking weird though. I told my story and mid-way, I kid you not, things just get fucking QUIET. Like. Stupid quiet. We heard crickets and frogs, typical stuff you'd hear out in Pennsylvania, but there wasn't anything. I was like a minute into telling my story when I got uncomfortable and realized that, told everyone to shut up and listen -- well. Listen to what we couldn't hear, at least. Everyone started realizing where I was getting at."

"I was like, 'Sam, you're being fucking stupid. I thought she was just trying to freak us out. But anyway, Chris came out of the treeline with his head down with a bundle of firewood, tossed it right into the middle and sat down for a moment. Then he opened his eyes, they were...strange. A little off. He always had green eyes, but they weren't so bright?" Maddison added, before Chris took over;

"Yea, that's right around when you guys heard me screaming right? I saw a fucking bear out there. Black bears aren't a problem though, you just scream and they leave you alone. Eventually I got back and saw you guys all staring at me funny like 'Didn't you just go that way? Why did you come from that way? Fortunately, we heard crickets and shit after that though. We packed our stuff and left. No time for making REAL Ghost stories, man."[/quote][/left][/collapse][/indent][/indent][/indent][indent][indent][indent][collapse=𝐃𝐑𝐈𝐕𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐅𝐀𝐌𝐈𝐋𝐘][left][quote]During an interview with a small family(We'll call them the Vernons) that drove through a Navajo reservation site, they've supposedly made claims of encountering a Skinwalker -- or at the very least, a cryptid worth noting.

"We were driving out at night through the Indian reserve, and right when we were turning around a sharp curve we all saw something jump down into the ditch. Couldn't have been an animal either, because we SWORE We saw clothing on the guy. We stopped our car, thinking maybe it was a lost fella or a hitchhiker. But by the time I was moving to open the door, I heard a loud bang on the hood of my car. My wife was hysterical. Said that she saw red eyes looking at her before they disappeared. After that I just started the car off and drove right away."

The family made it safely at home that night, but outside of their home they reported to hear the sound of more loud banging.

"It kinda sounded like how the guy banged on my car when we were out driving. I went outside to look and nearly jumped when I saw three owls staring at me from a tree. All of them had their heads turned perfectly, eyes were all this bright yellow, but had an almost...human look to them."[/quote][/left] [/collapse][/indent][/indent][/indent][indent][indent][indent][collapse=𝐂𝐎𝐋𝐎𝐑𝐀𝐃𝐎 𝐑𝐀𝐍𝐂𝐇][left][quote]Of most of the historical accounts, this may possibly be the one that potentially tells of the most direct contact with a Skinwalker. The infamous 'Skinwalker Ranch' also inspired us to interview this man when we were in the area. For convenience sake, and for anonymity to be maintained, we'll call this rancher Chuck. Chuck owns a fairly large sheep farm and raises them for wool, and has has owned this land for several years now. During his time living on the ranch, he claims to have frequently dealt with wolves -- which are a common bane for any ranch owner in the Colorado area. Chuck described to us that during the early morning or noon, there will be moments where there is a sudden quietness in the area. Birds will fall silent, and animals seem to stray away from areas where this silence continues.

"It's almost as if nature knows something's wrong, and doesn't want to be around for when that something shows itself. My Sheep also form huge herds and bunch up closely together, and frequently flee areas if they get this way. Worse yet, the only time things get better and stop being so darn quiet is when I smell something awful, seems like a funky coincidence. Still can't find out what that smell is," The rancher said.

The most obvious account, detailed below, is when Chuck spent the morning doing repairs on his home.

"I heard a loud laughter come from the sheep pens while I was banging my hammer into a nail. Really almost made me smash my thumb. I was alone, so I went outside to check what the fuss was. Then I saw all my sheep huddled into one corner of the pen. They all clumped up and tried to run out before I noticed that there was one sheep staring at the herd from the other end of the pen. It was staring at me, but there weren't something right with its eyes. They looked almost human. I had to make sure none of my sheep got out of the pen though so I stopped worrying about that one at the time, before I heard another wolf howl by the time all the sheep got rounded up and taken into the barn."

[/collapse][hr][collapse=𝐇𝐈𝐒𝐓𝐎𝐑𝐈𝐂𝐀𝐋 𝐀𝐂𝐂𝐎𝐔𝐍𝐓𝐒][quote][color=red]The Historical Accounts seem to only really shed a negative light on the Skinwalker. After all, they began as a myth excuse heinous acts committed throughout the Navajo tribes. Despite that, therein still remains an air of mystique due to the simple fact that Skinwalkers are very seldom spoken of outside of these historical accounts. This is part due to the fact that the legend is not really truly understood outside of Navajo culture, and their reluctance to share or speak of them.

Interviews have been conducted with a few natives before. Wendigos for example, are much better known outside of Skinwalker mythology, as are Ijiraq, are better known when we speak to native sources. And yet, whenever the subject of a Skinwalker is brought, they often avoid the topic.

"We as Natives are opened up to a barrage of questions about our beliefs and traditions. These are not things that should be, or need to be discussed by others, let alone with outsiders." [/color][/quote][indent][indent][indent][collapse=𝐀𝐏𝐏𝐀𝐑𝐄𝐍𝐓 𝐖𝐈𝐓𝐂𝐇𝐂𝐑𝐀𝐅𝐓][left][quote]While this is equal parts myth and history, the thing we must understand is that the Navajo people genuinely believed that Skinwalkers existed. They were very spiritual people, believing that magic could be used for the benefit or the harm of others. Those that pursued the art of healing others became medicine men -- what we call Doctors today. Those that chose to use magic to harm others would become witches, and in time, learned the art of shapeshifting into animals -- this is what they called the Yee Naaldlooshii. 'Skinwalkers'. They were malevolent and used their magic to harm others. Much like how Medicine men used herbs and natural remedies, it stands to reason that the so-called Skinwalkers used dangerous plants and poisons to bring harm to others.

Perhaps the most unsettling part is that the Navajo people were taught to expect the Skinwalkers to be found within parts of their society. They were expected to be among their tribes. Due to their ability to shapeshift, and the difficulty to kill them, it was impossible to tell who was and wasn't a Skinwalker, and they were simply accepted within their societies as a part of every day life. Bad omens were frequently blamed on Skinwalkers; be it droughts or disease. This later lead to the Navajo Witch Purge, detailed in another file below.[/quote][/left][/collapse][/indent][/indent][/indent][indent][indent][indent][collapse=𝐈𝐍𝐅𝐀𝐌𝐎𝐔𝐒 𝐑𝐀𝐍𝐂𝐇][left][quote]Perhaps you've heard of it. The Skinwalker Ranch in Uintah Country, Utah. It's caused quite a bit of talk for the supposed sightings throughout the area, and hell, there's even been purported UFO Sightings over there! Crop circles, mutilated cattle, the whole shebang. Skinwalker Ranch has a bit of history to it, though. The general area was marked as reservation for the Ute tribe that lived there, but their history with the Navajo has been known to be rather strained at best. Rumor has it, the Ute captured and kidnapped members of the Navajo tribe and sold them off to the Spaniards as slaves. Out of spite and revenge, the reserve was purportedly cursed by the Navajo people. The ranch bordering this reserve is often seen as 'on the path of the Skinwalker'.

The Ute people take the Skinwalker myth very seriously, to the point that people are forbidden from entering the area. Numerous places within the reservation have included Skinwalker sightings, though, and it even stands to reason that the crop circles and mutilated cattle found along the ranch may even be something to blame them.

Other reports even go as far to claim red-eyed animals found within the area, which didn't even get injured when struck by bullets. These reports have yet to be sifted from the hoaxes, however, and like many other Skinwalker and Cryptid sightings, it's often best to take claims as these with a grain of salt. [/quote][/left][/collapse][/indent][/indent][/indent][indent][indent][indent][collapse=𝐍𝐀𝐕𝐀𝐉𝐎 𝐋𝐎𝐍𝐆 𝐖𝐀𝐋𝐊][left][quote]Another moment in history that's often shrouded in infamy is the Navajo Long Walk in 1864. The Navajo people were forced to March from their land to Fort Summer in New Mexico. During this time, the Navajo people suffered egregious casualties ranging from bad water, wilted crops, and illness. During this, many of the tribe's members were said to have desperately turned to Witchcraft in hopes of escaping these terrible conditions. They were saved from a fate, but were forced to elevate themselves at the expense of others, becoming Skinwalkers that would later flee from the tribe to live within the wilds. The rest of the remaining tribe claimed their Gods have deserved them, further encouraging many of the Navajo people to turn towards desperate measures as a means of survival.

Once they arrived at their reservation and recovered, the Navajo still believed that the Skinwalkers remained among their kind. These dreaded witches were accused of bringing about a slew of misfortunes against their people, and it lead to the Navajo Witch Purge of 1878. During this time, at least 40 suspected Skinwalker witches were killed in hopes of restoring harmony to the tribe. [/quote][/left][/collapse][/indent][/indent][/indent][/collapse][hr][collapse=𝐌𝐘𝐓𝐇𝐎𝐋𝐎𝐆𝐘][quote]"As mentioned before, it's imperative to remember that a lot of Navajo mythology is kind of conflated with history. So we've kinda just compiled what they're known for, what they're capable of. The usual things that are most well known about them, but remember. Skinwalkers are something not too well known outside of the Navajo culture, and they continue to refuse in explaining or elaborating on them to outsiders."[/quote]
[indent][indent][indent][collapse=𝐒𝐇𝐀𝐏𝐄𝐒𝐇𝐈𝐅𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐒][left][quote]The absolute key, most fundamental thing to know about Skinwalkers is the fact that they are capable of shifting themselves into the shape of other animals. Whether or not this is limited to animals or PEOPLE Remains to be seen, but evidence does suggest that they're capable of blending perfectly into society, thus meaning that if they were truly as real as some claim, they are more than likely capable of mimicking others -- be it voice or appearance. What makes a Skinwalker truly frightening is the simple fact that you never know when you might truly be looking at one or not. Whether they are a skulking shadow at the corner of your eye, or the snarling wolf that marches silently. A Skinwalker will always find a way to blend in perfectly through its shapeshifting.[/quote][/left][/collapse][/indent][/indent][/indent][indent][indent][indent][collapse=𝐄𝐘𝐄𝐒][left][quote]Another important part of them is that they're witches. Their eyes are said to be an important part of this aspect, as they possess the ability to look into the minds of anything they look at. This is what makes them most dangerous -- one simple second of eye contact is enough to allow the beast to peer your thoughts, for better or worse. Some even go as far to claim that they're capable of manipulating those they lock eyes with like puppets; forcing them to do things they would never dare perform otherwise.[/quote][/left][/collapse][collapse=𝐊𝐈𝐋𝐋𝐄𝐑𝐒][left][quote]Perhaps the most important thing to note is the reason WHY they Carry the reputation they carry. Not All witches are Skinwalkers, but all Skinwalkers are witches. This Is because as time carries on, a witch will gain more power -- their very being will grow corrupted. This is what makes a Skinwalker such a powerful, dangerous thing. They are able to live forever, but must do so at the expense of others. Life must be given in order for them to carry on their life, and thus, a Skinwalker will always seek to kill or harm somebody in order to prolong their own lifespan. While this part of them may have stirred up through a lot of speculation throughout the cryptid hunting community rather than through actual fact or foundation, there is certainly a reason why the Navajo -- and even other tribes, such as the Ute, would fear them so greatly. Merely speaking of their name is enough to disturb a Native American.

It stands within reason for this theory to be correct then, considering the fact that there is perhaps nothing more scary than something that is actively malevolent and seeking to bring harm on others for its own selfish gains. By many definition, this is what people call evil. I can only hope that if these creatures are as real as the Navajo believe they are, that this one facet of them is a result of senseless speculation and nothing more.[/quote][/left][/collapse][/indent][/indent][/indent][/collapse][/collapse][/indent][/indent][/indent][/indent][/indent][/indent][/indent][/indent][/indent][/center]
