Wendigo: This wendigo is different from the traditional lore. It appears when somebody commits the act of cannibalism and roams the forest craving for human flesh like you would expect. It's the embodiment of Greed and Hunger. But it doesn't always immediately kill in my version. for one is won't kill children because though it is hungry, Greedy, and craves flesh... It is not "Evil"
It can also speak. If you try to talk it will often reply with a deep growl followed by a demented "I'm sorry" and then it's over. If you can negotiate with it sometimes it won't kill you. It does however get out of control if it goes 4 weeks without human flesh. Then it loses all sense of humanity or compassion and goes into a crazed state of Hunger where it eats every living thing around it. (The bottom depiction is the one we're gonna use). The few humans who do manage to survive an encounter often find themselves hungering for human flesh. But as long as they weren't exposed for too long it's a small feeling that goes away.

"I am very very old... I do not like my existence... But I cannot die... I will simply rot away and my spirit will infect another woodland creature and I'll be back... You are lucky I ate today... Tell god I'm sorry..."

Oooh, cool!

A few questions:
A: Why the embodiment of Greed? I was thinking more along the lines of Gluttony.
B: How long of an exposure time would it take for that feeling to be severe?
C: Are people still affected by said feeling if the Wendigo isn't crazed, but it takes them a while to negotiate?
D: So the wendigo is there to punish cannibals?

E: Just a more broad question, what happens when you die in Hell?

Anyway, it's an amazing concept, and I love your twists on it! I'm excited to see what's in store with this boi!

A- Because Greed and Gluttony go hand in hand. And eating people for pleasure and crave is the ultimate act of indulging. Going so far as to take a human life just for your taste-buds is extremely greedy.
B- Within a few hours, the fear sets in but real symptoms take days of exposure unless it willingly intensifies the ability.
C- The Wendigo is Crazed by his hunger but he tries to fight it. He has more mental strength than a human so he can fight the effects of his own ability better. Fighting with his hunger and instincts to try and be a better "Person".
D- It exists to punish a certain cannibal who ate people in the forest where he lives now. He killed the cannibal slowly and now lives there in that forest. Eating any animals and people that come through slowly to allow himself to not need to leave.
E- you respawn with less magical power and less social status. The more you die the weaker you get. The more you KILL the STRONGER you get. But there are holy weapons and ammunition that can perma-kill a demon. Erasing its soul's existence completely.

Not interested. I prefer the Gorey, F**ked up depiction with fleshy, elongated limbs. Not the normal fur-covered fake stuff.

It'll be fine for now... I have a good friend who's good at art. I might get her to draw one for me. I'm not a great artist in any sense so I'll ask around.

Also i have question if I could join this little... Concept. I have my own species (it's open) called.. devil hounds, i think. I have two characters of this species (Gasoline and Match). I have all the rules set for them and everything. It's completely fine to say no.

The rules for the characters..
-Must be a canine-like (doggo preferred)
-Eyes must look like (y'know just the pupil and iris)
-Jaw line is sometimes jagged
-Must have two of the following markings:
[Upside down cross], 666, [reverse pentagram], [have only three legs], [horns*]
-Only has one tail (any kind of tail really, bobbed to fluff)
-At least one ear must be upright (most Devil Hounds have pointy ears)
**-Only male or NB have horns (still an optional)
-Feral or anthro
-must have a collar option
-No specific pattern
-(if anthro) Must be 6'2 or taller, average is 7'1 {I have yet to translate that into cm}
-No extra body fat (must be skinny and/or muscular)
-Scars are optional and encouraged, as well as claws or talons
-Some make have [back] spikes
-No wings (stubs/broken may be allowed), hair Tufts/braids/mohawk/etc.
-Broken or cracked halos are an optional
-Must have 3+ fur colors
-Names must match fur colors or somewhat match. If the name isn't really an object, this rule doesn't matter (for example: Match- Red, orange, yellow, brown; Gasoline- Aquas, greens, purples, blues, cyans, etc.)
I'll post the usual behavior below

For the first two years of their life, they must have at least 5 scars in order to continue in the "pack".
Their society is a little sexist.
Female/female presenting enbies have to fight and earn their scars while males/other enbies can easily collect them.
This concept is still a little unknown and confusing.
Most guard the gates to hell for Lucifer, Stan, and Steve (the three rulers of "Hell").
Some are sent out to the real world to complete tasks or missions.
These creatures can go weeks without food, but their breaking point is about 5-6 weeks.
They are not known to enjoy water. This confuses many.
Etc. Etc. (I haven't developed them a lot because I gave up hope after a while)

Okay well in this universe obviously the three rulers of hell aren't exactly a thing. It has a more normal government system with less dictatorship. But besides that, they seem like they'll fit well.

They were going to be part of a book (that i lost all work of) so that's where those came in. I can throw them out.

Cool!! I might change around some story a bit... Since they serve as gate guardians (Which wouldn't be useful cuz any high-level entity can open a hell portal with the right tools) we could use them for guards and warriors for Lucifuge. who is the major head of government in the part of hell most of the story takes place in. Would you be alright with that?

That's perfect

I made you mod. We can refine the storyline for your characters over time. Develop relationships with other characters and soon enough they'll be a part of the web ^_^

Oh okay.. I like a lot of the ideas... This should be really cool!! Would you like just to insert those as major characters or would you like to make new characters?
0 ups, 3y
Id like to have them as major since they're my Fursonas. I can always make more and other people could too as it's an open species.
