Rougarou
About
A Rougarou is a person burdened with a wolf-headed or wolf-bodied curse in the swamps and bayous. Some inherit it, some earn it through broken religious obligation, and some pass it to whoever spills their blood and reveals the secret. The creature hunts through reeds and shallow water while the human mind struggles to control what the curse considers hunger.
