Call the Cannibal Spirit

Level Five Wendigo Gift

Description

The Wendigo tribe's darkest allegiance is that with the Wendigo, the cannibal spirit. The spirit is only summoned when no other way to deal with a situation is available. It is summoned by ritually sacrificing a human heart. This is often taken from a corrupt or evil person, but any human heart will do. The spirit materializes as a gigantic Native American (7' tall) man. The Garou who summoned the spirit gives it the heart, and in exchange, it will track down a target, and eat its heart. The spirit must be given a personal belonging or a description of the target(s). It the spirit is thwarted, it will return for the one that quested it (and eat his heart). The spirit looks inhuman, with searing crystal blue eyes, and snow-white hair. The fingers ends in barbed claws, and the mouth is filled with piranha teeth. Its heart and entrails are made of ice. It does not wear any clothes, but people (sleepers) don't recognize this. In fact they usually don't notice the spirit at all, unless, of course, he's coming for them.

System: The spirit must be given a personal belonging or a good description (name and a trait or a feature). It will stay in its physical form and track the victim down as fast it can travel. It will ignore people that are not targets, unless they try to stop it. It doesn't suffer from the Paradox as long its on its quest. If its physical body is destroyed, it will keep materialized until it runs out of power (normally 2 times). When its reduced to zero power it will instantly reform elsewhere in the Umbra with 20 power. This time it will return to claim the Garou's heart (who summoned it) .If defeated this time it will leave.
