Here's a /tg/ related NOOOOOOOOPE

>>24538967
With Shapechanging and ear to ass ratio modification.

I swear to God, fucking skinwalkers scare the shit out of me. It's the only creepypasta that really gets under my skin (hah! but seriously) on a personal level.

>>24539570

Because it has a legitimate chance of being real?

I mean on some level there has to be some truth to the fact of people living in the woods, killing people, and wearing their skin as a suit.

>>24539582

I don't know. There's just something about it that gets to me. I usually just shrug off creepy stories like witches, finding dead bodies and whatnots, but fucking skinwalkers. They scare me.

>>24539582

Well yes and no.
The skinwalker story specifically states that the guys buddy was "alien" in a way - mimicking facial features, "learning".

The "guy living in woods wearing peoples skins" is more believable then "alien body snatchers integrating into society".

>>24539623

Faces. Extremely fucked up faces. I rationalise horror to a degree, but when it comes to faces.
And I mean like that SCP Coffin object that distorts video cameras and TV's - the distorted face from that. That's when I go NOPE.

>>24539623

Imagine it happens to you.

Imagine nobody has the slightest clue. You just went out camping yourself one time and came back with a skinwalker inside of you. Nobody would know, but you would be disconnected. Your friendships would die. Your reputation would disappear. You would become a freak, and probably get caught for murder at one point and your parents and friends will believe you were some fucking freak who liked eating people and murdering people and not the truth: that what was controlling you was not you, but something worse. But it's too late, they'll never know.

>>24539655

>The skinwalker story specifically states that the guys buddy was "alien" in a way - mimicking facial features, "learning".

Some traditional lore (trust me, I live next to a reservation) states that skinwalkers have to wear the 'pelt' of those they wish to become to fully integrate as one. It's very magical and shit, but that's just how it works. Some cultures have a shapeshifting way about it, some are just like the picture: they literally wear the skin and are very, very quick at learning.

Hmmmmm....
Wonder if I can find out any similar "stories" in Aboriginal culture...
Interesting living near a reservation?

Toss live grenades with long fuses underhand to them looking as friendly as possible.

If they're your friend, they'll throw the grenade the fuck away.

If they're a skinwalker, they'll catch it, inspect it, not know what it does, and get blow'd the fuck up.

This method may not work if you have a stupid friend.

>>24539807
After a while, you stop having stupid friends.

i live in the tahano reservation and my dads a shaman, hes told me all sorts of shit about skin walkers. best way to find out if someone is or isnt a skin walker is to do like the fellow in OPs pic did, ask it questions it wouldent have the answer to. when it answers wrong blow its brains out and chop it up. then run away as fast as possible because that may not work. oh and that dudes friend is dead as fuck

>>24539940
as a side note, when you kill it make sure there is no evidence it was you who did it cause if you are wrong you just murderd your friend with early on set Alzheimers. it sucks when that happens

>>24538967

So I' reading up a little on Navajo skinwalkers and it says that "legend has it that skinwalkers can have the power to read human thoughts". Now, the source material is a dodgy (Wikipedia), but wouldn't the "ask questions" tactic prove fruitless if they can read thoughts?

>>24540044

So ask him if he's a Navajo first.

>>24539788
Only thing I know of that really gives them the willies is the Kadaitcha man.

It's simple, OP.

Kill it and wear its skin.

>>24540044
possibly. info is spotty in the first place. iv never actually SEEN a skin walker so i dont know what does and doesnt work, my dad only has what he was taught by the shaman before him. so really, all you can do is go out and find one, test it and see if it rips you apart and replaces you.

Does anyone think this could be a good tabletop game or a freeform skype game or something? A group of 5-6 players doing a standard quest for really anything, probably something made up, but only one player knows the truth -- they're a skinwalker stalking the party.

>>24540168
So basically a WoD game where one player's a Changeling.

>>24540125

What if, instead of asking it a question because it might be able to read my mind, I just rip my pants off and start furiously jerking off in front of them. They won't be able to read my mind to tell what they should logically be doing, because the only thing that goes through my mind when I'm pumping nut ethanol is "YEAH GONNA CUM BUCKETS YEAH YEAH". So if they remove their pants and monkey see, monkey do, then I know they're a skin walker and spray my white ash all over them.

The only downside is if they're not a skinwalker, I probably just lost a friend (or ended up in a very weird relationship)

>>24540171

Holy shit

I guarantee there is no such thing as skinwalkers. How could something so large fit in the small skin of a human? It just can't work. It would be like trying to wear a glove for mice. We're all fairly intellect people here on /tg/, I think we can all understand the physical impossibility of one fitting in such a small volume.

>>24540478

>>24540525
To trick people into believing you don't exist and to learn what tactics we would come up with to kill you. Duh.

>>24540525
You like playing Changeling: The Lost?

>>24540478
I'd like to summon to the strand our good friend and doctor, Mr. Ass Marbles, to determine if the skin of a human being is large enough to suit the needs of these creatures.
The method used to determine this would be, obviously, to have Dr Marbles stick stuff up his ass.

>>24540525
To fool the only people who can kill you.

>>24540525

Because your former self loved traditional games

>>24540525

Because you stole the body of a neckbeard and need to observe neckbeard central to properly fit into your new human role.

>>24540525

Just ignore them, we get people like that all the time. By the way, there's a seminar on interacting with other people and popular conversation topics taking place at the local community center on Saturday night. I heard it's good enough that a single session there can teach you everything you need to fit into society. You should bring all your friends to them and enjoy yourselves. By the way, if you see any military vehicles or bonfire smoke nearby, they're just holding barbeques in the nearby park. Don't worry about them.

>>24540701
Ah, I went to the wikipedia page for skinwalkers.
It said at the top it was a legend so obviously they aren't real.
And i found the white ash thing. Apparently the Navajo believe that to kill a skin-walker (kill something that doesn't exist? are they crazy amiright?) you have to cover the bullet in white ash.

That's preposterous but it made something that happened when I went to Arizona once make sense. they thought I was skin walker yes? Still have scar from the bullet. Crazy Navajo.

OP here

Don't worry anon, I won't delete the thread. This thread is a giant joke, skinwalkers aren't real. You have nothing to worry about, there's no need to ruin our fun and sharing of knowledge and merriment. Just carry on, I'm sure it's nothing.

Imagine if there was a yandere skinwalker that was obsessed with you, and purposefully follows you home, identifying which females you interact most with. Then it narrows it down to which one would be the most physically attractive to you, kills her, and takes her place. All of a sudden, that next-door neighbor girl or classmate is acting a lot more socially awkward, but has an almost encyclopedic knowledge of your habits, likes and dislikes, and insists on following you everywhere and asking you what qualities you would find most attractive in a lover.

>>24540630
Sounds like it just wanted to be among humans.

Or that's what the skinwalker wants you to think.

>>24540873
>implying this isn't real

Maybe instead of killing someone and taking his skin it could have hunted a dog or something less self-aware and become a well-loved family pet if it wanted interaction and acceptance.

>>24540886
I was referring to the goatman pasta and how it seemed that the goatman had no violent intentions or other ill will towards the humans, but your idea is still an interesting one.

Why can't skinwalkers be animals? How do you know if your animal is a skinwalker? It would act the exact same...
And it's always with you...

>>24540891
And the smile.
I can picture them pulling the right muscles in the appropriate fashion, looking you in the right way and still giving you chills just because you KNOW there's something missing. Like if they learned to smile just by pure observation and repetition without ever connecting to the feeling that drives the action per-se. Those eyes, watching you, ever-so-closed, seeing if they're fooling you or not, just... measuring.
That's a predatory mind at work.

>>24540920
Or maybe you're the skinwalker and don't want us to get ahold of your blood. What's your game here anon?

What if
we get a bunch of kigurumi suits
and give them to the skinwalkers
so then that way they can get human bodies without having to kill people
and we get hot anime chicks running around in real life

>>24540925
god damn i cant tell if you dont speak english or you are really good at making this seem creepy

I ain't trusting none of you fuckers until we establish some kind of legitimate test.

Become a ventriloquist and voice actor. Stomp through the forest, rehearsing your routine, throwing your hilarious voices in multiple directions. As you walk, throw rocks into the bush and ready yourself. Now go back to your tent, unzip it, make some rustling noises, then zip it back up and retreat to a pre made dig-in. Continue to throw your voice to the tent and sing a lively sea shanty.

Once the creature comes within range. Break loose the gates of hell. Detonate the thermite charges and shrapnel bombs around the tent, begin firing wildly with any firearm at your disposal and hurl petrol bombs.

Once the ash settles, you should have yourself one well cooked Skinwalker. If you don't, look on the bright side: You have made it your bitch, and it will likely never fuck with you again.

>>24540949
Well, some crazy people believe, that skin-walkers are these things that live in the wilderness resembling a slightly taller than average person with grey-ish skin and black around their eyes rather than white. They can apparently take someone's body as their own after killing them but only i they kill the person without weapons which would hardly be difficult assuming how frail people are. They also have the ability (or they would if they existed) to imitate sound they hear. Once they have a body they would try to learn how to act in society and bring other humans for their tribe to inhabit.

These are the pretend things /tg/ is pretending to find and making a game of.

>>24541016
Maybe they're really a skinwalker.

>>24541025
i got one, ask what chapter they are from

>>24540804
Rare red meat, not off-topic.

>>24541031
Oh. And what can you do to stop these pretend beings? I would like to know for a game I am running. Since this is /tg/ and it's for recreational tabletop games.

>>24541034
Table of contents is a valid answer.

ok well thats one person that isnt a skin walker, but now we need a new test

>>24541016
I am gaining a hold of the language rather well, so I can speak it almost proficiently now. Why would I try to seem creepy? I'm not involved in this game of find the skin walker /tg/ is playing.
>>24540978
It was taken by someone to the side. That's why the mirror is off center and the girl is not in the middle of it.

>>24541031
WE TRICKED THE SKINWALKER INTO TELLING US ITS SECRETS.

>>24541064
Who says its a mirror?

>>24541064
Can skinwalkers show up in mirrors or something? I need methods of detection for my shadowrun game. I want to incorporate skinwalkers in it and I need to know methods of detection.

>>24541047
Please, you don't need to stop them. They can't exist as I've already pointed out.
For your game, I recommend the white ash myth. There are many who faithfully believe in it up until the point where it doesn't work.

>>24541092
yes skinwalkers show up in mirrors

>>24541092
They do indeed show up in mirrors. If they did exist, we would look for black rings around the iris of the eyes where the bodies eyes don't quite fit right.

>>24541097
Right. But I need ways to detect them. For lore rolls. Not just ways to hurt them. And you say it doesn't actually work? Then what does? /tg/ is usually so good about this. I wonder what's wrong.

>>24541115
*they would look for

As they say, I need sleep.

>>24541092

The only things that set skinwalkers apart is the fact that they, at first, seem "off". They dont have the persons memories and, when taking control of a new creature type, still have to learn (albeit very quickly) shit. Like if you handed one a PDA, they would have no idea how it works at first.

Make myself really easy prey.

Poison the shit out of my meat.

Hope that I wasn't just being paranoid as fuck.

>>24541125
If they existed that is. I'm sure you meant to include that in your post as /tg/ is to reasonable to believe in fairy tales

hey its that guy who went out to find the skinwalker earlier. saw some dude on a rock but when i called out to him he ran off, so i followed him, dunno what that was about but i couldent find him.

Well, it has been fun playing find the pretend skin-walker /tg/ but I need to sign off now. My roommate is making a fuss because I've been acting weird according to him. So night.

Remember, skin walkers can't be real.
If any of you live in the states, I hear camping is wonderful this time of year around the Appalachians.

>>24541348
good night skin walker

>>24541348
Right. I'm camping in Norway. At least trolls are big enough to fucking see.

>>24541348
You never had a roommate, dude. Even if you're a strange creature, beware. For when hunters look for prey, they forget they can be hunted too.

Guys, the best way to overcome the disguise of a skinwalker is to play a game of magic against it if the person already knew how to play.

Think about this. This wouldn't work with any game that isn't relatively new like chess.

>>24541373

You fool! You fell for one of the classic blunders - The most famous of which is "never get involved in a land war with Asia" - but only slightly less well-known is this:
>Most Humans care not for nature!

Obviously you sir, are a skinwalker.

>>24541652

Just what a skinwalker would say.

Not me but my sister and her friends. I guess that makes it skeptical as this isn't a firsthand account, though there was some proof for it, explained in the story;

The setup;

>Live on a golf course community
>At the back of the course, long, long expanse of forest
>Eventually leads to this really weird subdivision, built in the 70's
>Not really important to the story but whatever, it's just a weird, isolated neighborhood which borders a big forest
>That said, beyond the woods and through the subdivision, and there's a shopping center bordering a main road

The situation;

>Halloween evening
>After trick or treating with her friends, they get some calls from their other friends who are all hanging out in the shopping center
>She and her friends there grab our golf cart, and head across the golf course
>Plan to cut through the woods, through the subdivision to reach the shopping center
>While driving through the woods in the sunset light, they see for seemingly no reason, a guy without a shirt standing out in the middle of the woods facing away from them and whistling
>They stop for a bit to watch and record a video on their phone but eventually just go on, reach the shopping center and hang out there til like 2 in the morning
>Ready to head back, she picks up 2 more of her friends who live nearby, so there's 5 of them total
>Heading back through the subdivision, find the woods, driving along the same trail to get back to the golf course in the pitch black now
>Eventually they pass by the same point and stop, because right fucking in the same spot is the guy, standing there away from them and whistling

Cont.

>>24541705
you still writing anon? Or did the skinwalkers get you?

>>24541840
Cant it be both?

>>24541705

My sister told me, it was actually the whistling that they heard which caused them to stop.

>Being a bunch of dumb kids, they sit and watch, joking around and shit
>One of the boys grabs a flashlight and shines it directly on the guy
>"Yo man, you high or something?"
>They guy stopped whistling, just started laughing, like side-splitting laughter
>Eventually he turned his head to look back at them

This part she said she remembered clear as day.

>Despite having a big grin from ear to ear, he looked completely normal
>Some seconds later though he turned his body to face them, and his torso was all carved up, all sorts of shapes cut into his chest, such that pretty much his entire front was soaked red and even his pants were stained
>Of course at this point they all shit themselves, and my sister just hit the gas, but it still meant driving past him to reach the golf course
>He took a few steps towards them and hurled a handful of what they all said were like small white stones or something
>Right about at that point my sister had to hit the brakes because out of the darkness from one side to the other, what looked to be a young child wearing only a long shirt just ran in front of the cart super fast from out of the darkness and back into it
>She keeps going through the woods and eventually hit the golf course again
>The whole time though, up until they actually left the course itself, they said they saw the child stalking them
>Not following or running after, they just kept looking back and seeing it at different intervals near them, twice at least even in a tree
>Reach home, shit bricks, all of them just stay the night at our house

How do I know that I'm not a skinwalker?

Like, what if I stole my skin, but in order to blend in I've completely internalized my personality and now believe my skin to be my actual skin?

>>24541885
Nope. Skinwalkers can't be that meta. You're fine.

>>24541876

After it all, they ended up with a video of the guy before sunset, then a photo or two of him in the dark, and finally a really shitty video and a bunch of photos of the child following them.

My dad said the guy was just some junkie or something from that subdivision, and the child was probably actually just a heron (a lot of them on the golf course) or something that was following them.

That said, I looked at the pictures and the videos, and they looked to correspond with the story that all of them told, shit scared. I mean the guy was clear to see, and in the other stuff, it definitely looked like a kid to me. One of the kids said they had managed to actually get a video recording of the guy the whole time and him throwing the things, but they actually lost the whole phone when my sister made the rough transition onto the golf course out of the woods going full speed. No one actually went back to look for it though, but someone did try texting it and got some weird replies so they just blocked the number.

>>24541926

Hmmmm....
You probably know what the next anon's going to ask...

>>24541926

Also one other weird detail that I learned some years later, was that the golf course used to actually be a quarry, and they just filled it all in. Back in the day though, there was a guy who kidnapped a couple of local kids and killed them, hid their bodies in the quarry.

Probably nothing more than an odd coincidence, as the quarry part wasn't really even near where the adjacent woods were, a different hole. Still though, pretty spooky.

I was once a man.

Confirmed for non-Australian author. Should have chosen shotgun (non semi-auto).

Holy Fuck /tg/, I though me and my friend were the only ones who had seen this shit.

Greentexting intro for speed.

>Be farm boy in New Zealand
>Have two cousins in Gisborne on the other side of the North island
>Invited to their place, meet with them and some friends
>suggests going camping up near Tuhoe territory
>hurr farm boys can do anything hurr
>Pack up the usual shit (meat, tents, etc)

Okay. This was a retarded idea, considering the Tuhoe Maori fucking hate anyone coming on their land without permission, especially a bunch of white boys who think they are hot shit. But I was sixteen, my cousins were 17 and 18, and the 3 other guys were roughly the same ages as us.
Anyway, we headed out their, usual shit, setting up tents by a small stream and stuff. Spent the day exploring, fishing, shit like that. By sundown, my eldest cousin has set up a fire and we're all sitting around eating meat and candy because we're a bunch of little shits. By 10pm I think, two of my cousins friends go off to get some more firewood.

>>24542969
Half and hour later, one of them comes back screaming his nuts off about all this crazy shit about something attacking them. So we all think 'oh shit a boar/Angry black man!' and get everyone together around the fire. My two cousins, both being the best guys ever, try to get everyone together so we can search for them.
Anyway, we're all getting our torches and shit together, along with one of my cousin's being a rich guy has a head lamp, and generally making a fuck ton of noise. Then we hear all this rustling coming out of the woods. All the bushes around the camp are rustling up and we're all thinking 'oh god what the fuck'. Then this big fuck-off huge Maori guy, covered and tattoos and knives and shit steps out of the bushes, dragging our friend.

So we're all thinking 'the fuck did he do?', because from what we can see of our mate, he's all cut up and his cloths are ripped to shit. I am, at this point, nearly shitting myself, but this big guy just asks if we can look after this guy he found. We point out that its our friend, and he just tosses him to us and tells us to not let anyone else go wandering off or letting anyone else near us.

Anyway, our one friend who actually ran back to us starts questioning him about all this bizarre shit like 'the fuck was that thing?' and 'What happened?'. Turns out the guy was hunting something in the forest, and their were a bunch more Maori hunters in the forest, so we should be careful.

Now, /tg/, this guy is obvious a native Tuhoe, who are suppose to be fucking crazy but is actually acting like a real bro to us. Anyway, one if the elder guys asks him what the hell he is hunting and the big guy just stares at him. And since this guy's face is covered in all these crazy Maori tattoos, he looks fucking terrifying.

>>24542933
Meh as in it was a boring story

>>24542852
So, your response to your friend being found stabbed to death is "Meh." You are a horrible friend, but that was apparent the instant you left a man behind.

Damn it all, not again.

>>24542982
Basically
>Cousin: No, tell us what the hell you are hunting.
>Maori: Just stay here and you'll be fine
>C: Dammit, we can't just sit here
>M: Boy, this isn't a boar we're hunting, so you sit your fucking arse right there and none of you fucking move.

Then we hear a bunch of hounds barking, and we're all thinking 'yeah right its not a boar.' And then their's a massive fucking roar and the Maori guy runs straight off into the bush again.

Yeah. Imagine how we reacted.
Our friend had just been rescued by someone who is suppose to be bugfuck crazy, their is obviously more guys running around in the woods along with their dogs, and there's something huge out there roaring its head off.

We basically shit ourselves.
Anyway, after we're done jumping at any noise for a while, my younger cousin decides to keep the fire going with a bunch of twigs from the bushes along the river, and tells us to keep watching him if anything happens. Nothing did, so we started to relax again, especially since we'd only heard that massive roar once, and the dogs barking had faded off.

>>24543367
Then another Maori bloke, just like the other guy who turned up before, just walks out of the bushes and waves at us. Now we're all thinking, maybe this guy was that previous guys friend, and he can tell us what happened.
He just stands their, staring at us. And then he flips the fuck out, swearing at us in Maori and shit, waving his arms around and stuff spraying blood everywhere, since his fingers were all bloody and stuff, like he'd been cut up, and his clothes were all ripped.

Then, I shit you not, the big Maori guy from before comes fucking barreling out of the forest on to the back of this new guy, and wraps him straight around the back. He's got a knife out and everything, and starts stabbing the shit out of the new guy, and we're all petrified because, holy shit, he's murdering someone in front of us.

>Nope.jpg

>>24543375
New guy just tosses the previous guy back into the forest and runs back in after him. We aren't doing shit because, because 'holy shit what the fuck is going on?'.
All we can hear is these two Maori guys fucking duking it out and stuff in the forest, and we can't see shit because its the middle of the god damn night.

No idea how much later, but the previous guy, the one who we met originally comes back out, covered in blood, with a bunch of other Maori guys, all carrying knives and stuff. Now, we would be shitting ourselves about this, but all of them are laughing their heads off and all that shit.

So we ask them what the hell just happened, and they literally sit down at our campfire, and spend the rest off the night eating all our shit and getting drunk. No idea what happened to the one who got stabbed, but from the way those guys we're going on about how they just pulled off something that would make Maui proud.

By the time the sun is coming up, we haven't had any sleep, and half of the hunters are asleep in our tents. My eldest cousin is talking to one of the head hunters, an old guy with this total bitching cloak of bird feathers is explaining what happened.

Apparently they'd been hunting a spirit beastie thing called a Taniwha that they had been hunting for the past week. Apparently we made good bait for it.

Fucking bait. Jesus christ.

Thank you /tg/ for these stories. And I luckily didnt read them at night. Its beautiful sunny noon here. And I will now go to grab a lunch and happily forgot about all of this.
And probably keep it hidden in some deep part of my mind, so I can pull it out during gaming nights to create horror in my players of some low powered horror game.
Thanks!

Doing some little necromancy on this thread.

So. Reading about all of that inspired me. I got some nice rpg action going on for five days in two weeks, and I want to homebrew something for my friends including skinwalkers, Wendigos, or some kind of look-alike shapeshifting/corpse desecrating/camouflaging and/or metamorphosing monster.

I already dug up some inspiration from movies like The Thing, or Mimic. Any nice gentleman to give me more food for thoughts, here ?

WA.

He was around Shannon National Park. It's true that vast swathes of forest are off-limits down there, probably because of thee magic mushroom that grow freely there, but maybe the government found something we should stay away from.

Well I'm glad there's at least some distance from me.
Time to stock up on some firearms now.

>I mean on some level there has to be some truth to the fact of people living in the woods, killing people, and wearing their skin as a suit.

no

Yeah, I also thought it could be a problem... or not at all, since none of them like to watch horror movies. But better be prepared than sorry, so I'll discard antarctica and winter-like locations just to be sure.

Maybe something like a little town near a national park. The PC's could be a group of friends going to an hunt in some isolated place, residing in an hotel when they aren't shooting stuff. I then could use some NPC's to let them understand that something is not quite right in this place.

Aw yis.

I made a 1890s CoC Adventure based off of Evil Dead 1 and 2 - although not entirely relevant to what your talking/asking.

North-Eastern Germany, near the border with Poland. There's some woods there, and I'm sure there's been enough bloodshed in the last 100 years to disturb whatever it is you want to throw at your players.

You've got the Nullabor between you and there; not much skin for them to ride or places for them to hide.

Besides you're the church state, get some divine help while you are building you're armoury.

Ladies and Gentlemen a skinwalker that can use the internet! Slow clap for our friend here!

Feel free to tell about it - it sounds like some fun (or at least it sounds like it in my wicked little GM's brain).

>>24548098
Damn it, that's a good idea ! I'll do some research about this area, since I only ever visited the Schwarzwald. Thanks for remembering me of German forests.

WendiGo : A man possessed by an evil spirit, wich turns into some kind of bloodthirsty canibalistic monster. That's what I remember about it, at least. Nasty things.

And Lou Garou. Although that might just be a thing here in Louisiana.

We Coonasses don't really freak out about monsters though. We've been here long enough to know.

It may take a few days of sorting through papers - I only made that adventure and a 1950s Cold War campaign based on the ZDoom mod "Cold as Hell".
Halfway through that - computer dies, have only draft back ups.

They are called "Loups Garous" in France. And "connasse" is a damn rude word, around here.
I think I like your local slang.

>>24548218
Welp, so much for it then. I always liked reading CoC reports on /tg/.
