The are people who have done horrible things and ceremonies in wrong ways to gain power and satisfy greed. Sometimes they are called skinwalkers. In human form their eyes have eyeshine at night lkike animals do. They don't only become wolves. Any animal is possible but especially coyote, wolf, fox, eagle, owl, or crow. Because animal skins are used primarily by skinwalkers, the pelt of animals such as bears, coyotes, wolves, and cougars are considered taboo. They use án't'i (corpse powder made from babies bones) to kill people by blowing it on people or putting it down the smokehole or stovepipe. They can't enter a home without invitation.
