Sentient Wendigo[edit]

Physical Description[edit]

While hidden, they look alike any other Human, Elf, Dwarf, Orc, Etc. though in private, they look like monstrosities, with a deer-like skull with antlers for a face, sometimes they are covered in long black fur, some look as though they were mangled and butchered, they all have long spindly arms, and legs, with claws big enough to crush a human.

History[edit]

Long Since their discovery, they were feared, being entities of cannibalism, being born of cold and dark forests, being born of men and women who eat their own kind out of desperation. where they spend their days killing, slaughtering, and devouring any traveler who crosses their path, they spend their near immortal life span with an insatiable hunger and an instinct saying to kill, slaughter and devour. Rarely by an unknown means, these creatures gain empathy and sentience. They use their natural gifts as merciless killers to hide in plain sight in towns, countries, or kingdoms.

Society[edit]

Might hide out in sewers, wells, abandoned caves, mines, to make Underground Markets for their kind, to sell things such as human flesh, large assortments of meat, or magical items that allow them to be undetected as easily by magical means.
