MONSTER, myrrha

[attr="class","appbody"]

i. a dense, sweet odor—the crush of leaves underfoot, hot breath and darkness. this is the start of myrrha's life, before he had a name, before he knew that he was born only to die. the only language he understands is the hunt and the kill, take and take and take—

but it's never enough, and it never will be.

ii. he does not like speaking. he is used to sharp guttural snarls, instead of the soft, wet sounds that human language demand. he'll forever carry a lilt in a his voice and stumble over a word every now and then. part of it is how unpleasant he finds moving his mouth that way, and the rest is a simple denial of any human nature.

and it's that simple, really. he likes his monstrous body better.

iii. while he doesn't care for politics, it's easy enough to feign a foreign persona.
(no, i do not know the area—can you show me?)
it makes the act of isolation an easier time. in rare, certain areas and rare, certain cases, it will add to his appeal; and when he's found himself in their bed and under their blankets, he'll silence them in their sleep and take his fill.
(still not full, not enough, never enough)

iv. but that way of getting by is nearly over. he's always been attracted to power (his own) but that of another didn't seem a possibility until it offered the chance at survival. he'll play pet and keep his teeth hidden if it'll lead to another day—

and another meal; always to satiate his gluttony.



a wendigo is vaguely human in shape more often than not, and carries around the sharp-sweet smell of decomposition. but these are details, because the monster's defining trait—the achilles heel—is it's bottomless gluttony. it starves for flesh, and only seems to grow hungrier the more it consumes. only ever temporarily sated, it's appetite is said to become so great, a city of people would make little difference to a long-lived wendigo dying of starvation.

myrrah himself is one of the more human-looking wendigos in his monster body, but not by much. while he lacks the common deer torso and head, his body is bony and elongated. his arms are abnormally, grotesquely long, with large claws on his hands and feet. antlers protrude from his head, and his mouth is lined with a few rows of sharp, disfigured teeth.
