1. Appearance
1.1 Essentials
BasicsMuch of the demon's inherent nature has been lost to the mists of time and sanity, making his appearance somewhat of an enigma of its own. Although not an unhealthy individual, the Wendigo's coat is an pale, ghostly grey, with flecks of a lighter overcoat painted lazily over his spine. The ghostly spirit himself is quite thin for such a large Luperci, as if he has remained on constant vigil and fasting throughout his years. His hair is long, unkempt, and frequently woven through various twigs, leaves, and whatever else may take root in his ghastly white mane. The spirit consciously chooses not to shift into any other form than Optime, as he believes the feral forms are a sign of weakness. The Wendigo looks to be more like a skeleton of a wolf than an actual living animal, although the definition of "living" is somewhat blurry when considering the ghost. However, the most peculiar thing about the spirit's appearance is not in the wolfman himself, but rather what he chooses to adorn himself with. Atop his head sits the only remains he chose to keep from his birthplace: a cleaned canine skull as empty as the soul who inhabits it. His skeletal body is draped in a swamp green cloak that looks as if he arose from the unknown depths of the swamp himself. The demon does not decorate himself in anything other than bones, which hang around his neck, alerting others to his presence via a cacophony of clinking bones.

Interaction
- Speech: The Wendigo speaks softly, like a whisper on the breeze. He seems to be incapable of raising his voice much higher than a growl, and has an indistinguishable accent echoing around his words. When the spirit chooses to speak, it is hushed, drawn out, and empty.
- Scent: Wood, herbs, rainwater, and mint. There is also a trace of blood and another canine if he has recently eaten.
- Quirks, Gestures, Etc.: The Wendigo has a strange habit of observing others constantly, his gaze from beneath the macabre headdress staring into another simply because, while the spirit may be cursed to walk the earth like a ghost, he is inherently curious about the way others work. He also has a habit of assigning his own names to strangers, disregarding the name they give him upon first meeting.
- General Posture and Body Language: The skull-faced demon towers over most Luperci, although he does neither emphasizes nor deemphasizes this point. The spirit treads lightly, with hardly a sound heard from the large wolfman.

2. Personality
TL;DR: A wolf that's not quite alive, and yet not quite dead either. He is also an occasional cannibalist.

Biases
SexualityDue to his current state of mind, the skeletal spirit believes himself incapable of feeling any sort of attachment to the physical world, including romantic partners. In fact, he has come to the conclusion during his years of wandering, meditation, and soliditary that love is merely an illusion the brains of those less-informed create to distract from the inevitability of death. SpiritualityThe spirit seems to be obsessed with the thought of death and the afterlife, and often ponders about the world outside of the one he can sense. The skull-masked creature also believes a higher power has cursed him, although which god is responsible remains unclear. SubstancesSimilar to love, the ghostly beast has come to the conclusion that any substance, manmade or otherwise, that clouds the senses prevents the consumer from seeing the truth about everyone's mortality. |

6. History
The Algonquin legend of the Wendigo is of a man who transformed into a monstrous beast from tasting human flesh. Likewise, the Luperci-like entity that dons the name of the mythical creature was born a regular Luperci somewhere in the Canadian wilderness. His mother was a gentle soul, his father much less so. Even the spirit himself has forgotten his original name, although he still remembers that faithful day clearly. The day he lost his humanity.
He was out scouting for food with his brother, when they both came upon a wolf lying in the woods, mauled and left for dead. As his brother ventured nearer to help the stranger, the grey ghost had something overtake him as the smell of the wolf's blood entered his nostrils. He had lost the ability to distinguish prey from predator as he smelled the blood and gazed upon the open flesh of the wolf, and he attacked. He finished the wolf off first, then went in to devour his flesh, his mind lost to his hunger and bloodlust. As his brother tried to stop the beast's rampage, he, too, met his end at the sharp ends of the spirit's teeth and claws.
Still not completely in his right mind, the Wendigo continued his hunt for canine flesh, turned nearly insane from the experience. He still wears the cleaned skull of his brother's corpse as a reminder of the true monster he is, the hunter of hunters.
