Wendigo
The wendigo is known to be a spirit that is deeply rooted in Native American folklore, a creature that can curse and possess humans to give them cannibalistic urges and they can never be sated. They are often used as a cautionary tale for those facing starvation to keep from resulting to cannibalism, but it isn’t needed for them to possess a person.
Due to their nature and insatiable hunger for human flesh mixed with their insanity and their extremely reckless behavior when it is hungry, they are often found, caught and slaughtered, releasing the spirit that possessed the person back to find another host. There are not many in the world today and those that are around make the most of their abilities, usually by means of being some kind of body dump of some kind or another. They have been used by less than adequate mental facilities to get rid of infected dead or by prisons and mafias to do the same. There are a few that are able to curb their hunger by working in funeral homes with closed caskets or graveyards, though they have to move around more often in order to do so.
Wendigo are able to possess humans and can take on that human’s form. As a spirit, they are able to become intangible, being able to move through walls, flying and even teleporting at higher ages. While they are a spirit type creature, they can take on a physical form as well which is depicted as a gaunt creature with the skull of a stag, usually with sunken eyes and thin skin. They are usually incredibly tall with long and lanky limbs and yet they can move with extreme speed and has surprising strength with the ability to survive the harshest of climates. With it’s heightened senses, it can pick up the heart beat of prey from a mile away and smell fear of those lost in the woods and with it’s trickery, it is able to mimic the voices of humans to lure them deeper into the woods.
