Necrolafanthropy (Neck-roe-la-fawn-throw-pee)

Necrolafanthropy is a supernatural affliction that is similar to other Therianthropic curses, with one major difference. Necrolafanthropes must reguarly consume humanoid flesh, and undergo rigourous training, in order to keep their animal form under control.

Only one known cases of Necrolafanthropy exist: Eyrs Thonich. Eyrs' curse was given to her by a creature called the Wendigo. It is unknown if there are other Wendigos, but no others have ever been seen. It is unknown if the Wendigo is, or ever was, humanoid.

It is currently unknown how or why this more extreme strain of Lycanthropy exists within the Wendigo or if they have passed it on to more. It is also currently unknown if Eyrs could pass on the curse, purposfully or by accident.
