Wendigo

Wendigos are humanoids who were cursed after eating the flesh of another member of their race.

Appearance
The skin of the Wendigo ranges from dull gray to a chalky white, and is stretched over their bones in a gaunt manner. They are usually bald, but some may have leftover strands of hair. The eyes are clouded over, while their teeth are three inches in length. Their arms and legs grow lanky, while their torso seems to shrink.

Abilities
Wendigos are impervious to most physical attacks, with the majority of blows glancing off their skin. Their claws are razor sharp, able to cut through chain mail with little difficulty. They are easily twice as strong as their original form.

The most dangerous ability the wendigo possesses is its uncanny speed. Wendigos have been known to chase down horses and centaurs with little difficulty, and are even able to catch harpies out of the air if they can find something to leap from.

Trivia

 * The Wendigos in Journeys Unwritten are based on the pale, hairless wendigos from Until Dawn.
