'''[[Intelligence]]:''' Self-explanatory
'''Standard Tactics:''' Wendigos will typically try to stealth out their opponents in order to kill or possess them. They will manipulate the weather conditions to be favorable such as heavy winter storms where you can barely see anything and feel cold. After setting up these conditions, they will remain out of sight and observe their prey from a far distance through invisibility, shapeshifting, or their general stealth. This will force their prey into being cold and starving, with a building fear they set up. When they know the time is right, they will let out a high-pitched yell to alert their prey that their time has come to an end. They are likely to straight-up kill people or just possess them.
'''Standard Tactics:''' The usual behavior exhibited by a character during battles. For example, which actions a character will first perform when fighting an unknown opponent or which abilities they will use frequently, rarely, or never. If the character's behavior is too inconsistent to identify, they fall under "wildcard".
'''Weaknesses:''' They are very vulnerable to fire due to having icy hearts. It typically can be used to harm them, but melting or destroying their icy hearts will effectively kill them. Has to constantly feed or else it will die from starvation.
'''Weaknesses:''' Self-explanatory

== Explanations ==
'''Notable Attacks/Techniques:''' A list of some abilities the character generally uses.
'''Possession:'''
Wendigos are able notably able to choose to possess people they can across instead of necessarily killing them instead. Those who are possessed by them will also become a Wendigo.
'''Key:''' For characters who have transformation stages/power-ups or who become stronger through certain points of the story, insert those transformations/power-ups/timelines here in bold.
* ''“[https://www.legendsofamerica.com/mn-wendigo/ It was a large creature, as tall as a tree, with a lipless mouth and jagged teeth. Its breath was a strange hiss, its footprints full of blood, and it ate any man, woman or child who ventured into its territory. And those were the lucky ones. Sometimes, the Wendigo chose to possess a person instead, and then the luckless individual became a Wendigo himself, hunting down those he had once loved and feasting upon their flesh.]”''
'''Light Manipulation:'''
Their eyes naturally emit light and glow within the night. This may vary depending on interpretations between yellow and even red, but they usually have these distinctive, glowing eyes.
'''Note:''' Self-explanatory
* ''“[https://www.legendsofamerica.com/mn-wendigo/ The Wendigo is generally said to have glowing eyes, long yellowed fangs, terrible claws, and overly long tongues.]”''
'''Immortality:'''
Hunting is what they typically do, and it has been noted they can hunt for eternity. This is to satisfy their hunger as they would die otherwise.
==Gallery==
* ''“[https://www.legendsofamerica.com/mn-wendigo/ Wendigos are said to be cursed to wander the land, eternally seeking to fulfill their voracious appetite for human flesh and if there is nothing left to eat, it starves to death.]”''
Put other pictures of the character here.
'''Weather Manipulation, Air Manipulation, Ice Manipulation, & Magic:'''
Weather is one of the main abilities that the Wendigo has a specialty in with it using it for its perfect cover in stealth. It is notable that these changes stem from it utilizing dark magic.
* ''“[https://www.legendsofamerica.com/mn-wendigo/ The creature is said to have a number of skills and powers including stealth, is a near-perfect hunter, knows and uses every inch of its territory, and can control the weather through the use of dark magic. They are also portrayed as simultaneously gluttonous and emaciated from starvation.]”''
Through the weather, they can create different types of conditions to best suit their needs. They typically use it to whirl up violent snowstorms, though they can make other things such as tornadoes too.
* ''“[https://mythology.net/monsters/wendigo/ It is said that an angry wendigo can cause the sky to darken and extreme weather such as harsh winter winds, tornadoes, and blizzards.]”''
'''Corruption:'''
Though they can change other people into Wendigos too by possessing them, they can also make this happen by biting them as well. It is similar to how vampires turn others in concept.
* ''“[http://sf-encyclopedia.uk/fe.php?nm=wendigo Its main attribute is that it eats people and can transfer that affliction to any it bites – the parallels with European myths concerning Vampires are obvious.]”''
'''Large Size:'''
Wendigos have been noted to be very big in size within folklore. Compared to humans, they were seen as giants that completely towered over them.
* ''“[https://www.legendsofamerica.com/mn-wendigo/ This creature has long been known among the Algonquian Ojibwe, Eastern Cree, Saulteaux, Westmain Swampy Cree, Naskapi, and Innu peoples who have described them as giants, many times larger than human beings.]”''
The amount has been clarified to be around fifteen feet tall for how big they are. Some sources claim they are even bigger, though this is the most consistent height for them.
* ''“[https://www.legendsofamerica.com/mn-wendigo/ Native American versions of the creature spoke of a gigantic spirit, over fifteen feet tall, that had once been human but had been transformed into a creature by the use of magic.]”''
'''Enhanced Senses & Water Walking:'''
They are noted to have exceptional senses such as eyesight, smell, and hearing. They use these senses all across different terrain, even when walking on water which they supposedly never sink on.
* ''“[https://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/windigo Windigos are usually credited with exceptional eyesight, hearing and sense of smell. They are said to move with the speed of the wind and have the ability to walk across deep snow or even over open water without sinking.]”''
Their senses are so spectacular that it allows them to detect the presence of entities through smell and know their complete movements from hearing over numerous miles away.
* ''“[https://mythology.net/monsters/wendigo/ It has heightened senses that allow it to tune into every inch of its hunting grounds (which often extend for many miles on end). Its sense of sight, smell, and hearing are so impressive that it is able to track its prey and know the exact movements of its target even if it is many miles away.]”''
'''Invisibility & Flight:'''
The Wendigo possesses multiple lesser-known, yet useful abilities for masking its presence entirely. They are notable enough to the point it can go completely unnoticed.
* ''“[https://mythology.net/monsters/wendigo/ Although a wendigo is able to exist in the physical world, it is actually a spirit form. Like many spirits, the wendigo has the ability to become invisible, fly, become undetectable, or possess humans.]”''
'''Mind Manipulation:'''
In history, there were cases where people were overcome with cannibalistic desires because of starvation within winter, named Wendigo psychosis. In some of the folklore, this condition is thought to have been caused by exposure to the Wendigo itself.
* ''“[https://mythology.net/monsters/wendigo/ This illness was thought to occur when a person had been exposed to the malevolent spirit of the wendigo and was feared more than death itself. In fact, it was considered to be better to kill oneself than to succumb to cannibalistic desires and risk becoming a wendigo.]”''
'''Stealth Mastery:'''
Stealth is one of the main traits of the Wendigo, as it knows the territory inch by inch to use its stealth and get around the area very easily.
* ''“[https://www.legendsofamerica.com/mn-wendigo/ The creature is said to have a number of skills and powers including stealth, is a near-perfect hunter, knows and uses every inch of its territory, and can control the weather through the use of dark magic. They are also portrayed as simultaneously gluttonous and emaciated from starvation.]”''
It uses its senses to help know the terrain and use it as a perfect hunting ground to observe and strike people, along with becoming completely undetectable to anybody trying to find it.
* ''“[https://mythology.net/monsters/wendigo/ Although a wendigo is able to exist in the physical world, it is actually a spirit form. Like many spirits, the wendigo has the ability to become invisible, fly, become undetectable, or possess humans.]”''
Capable of doing so for hours, the Wendigo uses its stealth to maintain cover while also making their prey feel more paranoid and fear toward them. This serves to help them catch them off guard and make them terrified enough to run rather than try to fight back.
* ''“[https://mythology.net/monsters/wendigo/ Although the wendigo is always seeking to fill a deep hunger, it enjoys taking its time before a kill. It will often stalk its prey for hours on end and will reveal its presence in small ways every so often in order to make its prey fearful. A person who is being stalked by a wendigo will often feel a growing sense of dread that they are being watched or followed. The wendigo is able to sense their fear and paranoia grow with each heartbeat. This brings the malevolent spirit a sense of excitement and anticipation for the kill.]''”''''
