Description

Sorry if the bio is a little confusing/long/out of order! I wrote all this a few weeks ago, and it might not be very good.
Wilda Doe
Height: About 7 feet
Species: Wendigo
Personality: She used to be very curious, but has learnt not to be, as she might accidentally stumble across a campsite.
She's kind of silly, and gets distracted easily. She always tries to stay upbeat and positive and tries to see the good
in everything. 

Bio: She was once a human. She stayed in a cabin in a forest with her friend for a weekend. The cabin was
very far off the trails, and it was winter. They got snowed in, but had enough food to last several days. However, this
was the most snowfall in 100 years. The wind outside was howling, and they couldn't go anywhere out of the cabin. This
snowstorm lasted for a long time, and they had never seen anything like it. Sadly, her friend wasn't very strong, and she
died of starvation/dehydration before Wilda. Left with no other choice, Wilda had to resort to cannibalism. Over the
span of a day, her skull morphed and changed, her skin rotted and teared on her head, her arms and fingers grew longer,
she grew fur and her legs changed shape. She became thinner, but stronger. She had become a wendigo. The storm cleared,
and she knew she couldn't return back to civilisation. The people would fear her, and might even kill her. Of course,
she knew nothing of the legend of the wendigo. She left the cabin and stayed in the woods. Her first encounter with a
human after turning into a wendigo didn't go how she expected. As soon as she saw the hiker, she had an uncontrollable
urge to tear the flesh off their bones and eat them. She lost complete control of herself, and charged at them. The only
thing she felt was hunger, and that the only way to satisfy it was to devour them. When there was nothing left but a
skeleton, she relised what she had done. She ran away deeper into the woods to get as far away from the skeleton as
possible. She started to adjust to living in the woods. After a few months, she had started to adjust to living in the
forest. Although it was very difficult for her at first, she started to see the more positive things around her. The
flowers, the sunlight as it glints over the tops of the trees at dawn, the animals scurrying around her. These would take
her mind off of being completely alone, the death of her friend, the never-ending hunger, and the urge to murder anyone
upon sight. She had grown to accept the forest as her home. She soon started to look at the positives of even being a
wendigo. Super-strength, being really tall, running pretty fast. She would occasionally stumble across campsites while there
was no one around.She would snoop around and take things. She knew it was wrong, but she felt like she kind of needed
things such as books more than the campers. She didn't have much to do in the woods, and reading would pass the time. Over time, she would start to take larger things. For example, a radio and a large metal box to put her books in so they would be protected from the elements. Other past-times would be building small structures out of twigs she would find on the forest floor, but not getting very far with them because she would always accidentally knock them over. She would also follow animals around just to see where they would go. Animals had gotten used to her since she was around all the time.However, she learned not to go too far from the depths of the forest, as she might accidentally come across some humans. Over the long amount of time she has been in the forest, she has attacked and killed many people. However, in some cases,some people have survived and gotten away, though their stories are always just passed off as lies, or them mis-seeing a bear or a wolf. The attacks are always just passed off as bear or wolf attacks, but some are suspicious about the sudden increase in attacks.

She gets spooked pretty easily, even though she is scarier than most things in the forest. She misses the outside world,
and wonders how much its changed since she's been a wendigo. She wishes she could just leave without being feared or
hurting anyone. The books she reads and listening to the radio are the closest she will ever get to knowing the outside
world.
As a wendigo, she has super-human strength despite her skinny frame, and can run faster than a human. However, because she
is so frail, she can be harmed easily, weakening her. It also takes a very long time for her to heal, as she doesn't
take in very many nutrients. However, it is impossible for her to die by natural causes (starvation, old age, illness,
etc.). The only way to kill her is to destroy her heart, which has turned to ice. It cannot melt, but can be shattered.
Since her heart is made of ice, she is constantly cold. She is also constantly hungry, but cannot do anything about it.
She has tried to eat animals that she found dead, but no matter how much she ate, she was still hungry and very skinny.
She has learned to cope with constant cold and hunger, and has grown used to it.
Upon seeing a human, her pupils disappear, and her movements become clumsy and erratic. She pays no attention
to anything around her (including obstacles) apart from the human(s). She will clumsily charge at the human(s), starting
out slowly, but quickly picking up speed. Her mouth stays open the whole time. She has tried to prevent herself from
attacking people, but to no avail. She has tried using duct tape she stole from a campsite to tape her mouth shut, but
even that hasn't worked.

So that's it! I've been working on this for a while, and I hope you all like it!

She could try a muzzle from a large dog.
