Skin Walker: Difference between revisions

A Skin Walker, also known as a "yee naaldlooshii", is a ''usually'' a person with the supernatural ability to [[Shapeshifting|change their form]] into either [[Animorphism|an animal]] or [[Doppelganger|another human being]]. Being very similar to [[Our Werewolves Are Different|Werewolves]], and other paranormal shape changers, most skin walkers abilities are largely powered by [[Black Magic|dark ritual]], and the breaking of native taboos (Such as cannibalism, incest and murder, especially of family members) or are heralded to create them. Each tribes' version differs in details. Most Skinwalkers are differentiated from their brethren by being able to take multiple shapes, but are not free-form shapeshifters. The myths usually describe them as humans who wear only an animal skin, or an abomination of human and animal forms.
