[QUOTE="Stone Dog, post: 3842005, member: 16705"] Wendigos are pretty similar, but different. I think a ghoul is a humanoid who went so completely decadent and insane that they became something vile, malevolent and so close to being undead that it hardly matters that they still have functioning organs. It has its old skills and old memories and can remember friends (might even be helpful) and enemies, but the personality changes and becomes cruel and apathetic. It is a template in my head. A wendigo is a demon of ice, gluttony and hatred that can possess other creatures. Creatures who have already turned to cannibalism are favorite victims, but anybody will do in a pinch. It is a seperate monster that only uses your stats while it rebuilds you into its real form. First it is a demon possesion and then it is a complete transformation. So a ghoul is something that happens to you because you have gone down a sick road of perversion and decadence while a wendigo is something that climbs in your brain and drives you around like a car because it likes your style, but eventually remodels you completely. Zombies eat the living and unputrified flesh. They are already rotting and are no longer tasty. Ghouls might find zombie meat nice and tender, but having to fight your food is really too much work for the decadent creatures. If a bunch of ghouls hold down a zombie and start eating it the zombie would probably fight them just like if humans held it down and beat it with sticks, but probably wouldn't recognize that it is being eaten.
