Wendigo Traits

"The Wendigo was gaunt to the point of emaciation, its desiccated skin pulled tightly over its bones. With its bones pushing out against its skin, its complexion the ash gray of death, and its eyes pushed back deep into their sockets, the Wendigo looked like a gaunt skeleton recently disinterred from the grave. What lips it had were tattered and bloody. Unclean and suffering from suppuration of the flesh, the Wendigo gave off a strange and eerie odor of decay and decomposition, of death and corruption"
-Cue Ball, The Notorious Rogue Scholar

Wendigos are monstrosities who were once man, or near-man like. Over time their madness consumed them, their souls took a rather sinister turn, unfortunately they turned to a rather sinister nature and are willing to eat friend and foe alike.

These beasts almost always reign solo, but some can be bargained with, and very rarely will you find one with their sanity about them. Perhaps a loved one came unto them, and after the slaughter they were knocked back to reality only to be met with quite the sorrow. Their soul cursed, and left to wander until they repent for their cursed souls.
