Wendigo

The Wendigo is a man-eating monster inhabiting the frost-bitten forests of Canada. It is somewhat humanoid in form, standing upright with thin bony limbs. The creature resembles a decaying corpse with matted hair and ash-grey skin stretched across its emaciated frame. It smells just as it looks - rotten.

They have a ravenous appetite for human flesh, roaming the dense forests to happen upon an unwary traveller. Although they have a weak and withered appearance, the Wendigo is strong and fast with sharp claws and a gruesome set of teeth.

The Wendigo have an extreme aversion to fire and heat, so any form of flame will deter an attack and even mortally wound the monster.
