>>6488692I'm all for the idea of deer monsters and shit, but that embodiment is just... wrong. It's weird it exists honestly.
Wendigo were evil spirits who'd possess you if you let them and they'd keep you from dying in the wilderness. The trade off is yes, cannibalistic nature. From there different things can happen. You just eat and become powerful and hungrier. You could grow monstrously in size with each person devoured. Whole bunch of fun shit.
No deer monsters though :/
