This creature is the husk of its former self after being bitten by a true Wendigo. This form is nothing but a puppet to the Wendigo.
This creature can bite a living creature to infect them with the curse of the Wendigo. The target must pass a DC 15 Constitution saving throw or become one of the infected. These infected slowly lose weight until they are near skeletal and their skull slowly becomes that of a stag’s, however they do keep their host’s physiology to be better acclimated to their environment.
The husk can perform basic actions and interact with objects like any NPC.
Screech
The husk will scream out to any other infected within a 100 foot area of the husk.
Claws
The husk will attack with its claws. Range 5 feet, target 1. Hit 25(3d10) slashing damage.
Bite
The vessel will attempt to infect its opponent. Range 10 feet, target 1. Hit (1d8)
DC 15 constitution saving throw or become infected after 3 long rests.
Instinct bite
If an opponent misses an attack against a vessel, the husk will be able to bite it as it swings past it. Only in close quarters.
Description
This creature is nothing but the Wendigo. It is no humanoid cursed with everlasting life and hunger, but is a vessel of the Archdevil that cursed those sinful humanoids. As time goes on, the vessel becomes more like the Archdevil that resides in The Nine Hells. Their skin loses pigment and their hair falls out, their body becomes skeletal and their skull becomes like a stag.
