Shaman's Brother

Background

Shaman's Brother was a member of a tribe that inhabited the Aarea that became Canisborough, Pennsylvania. His sister was Shaman.

During the events of Lycan Colony (2006) played by Edward Wong

Athena tells Russ Allen the story of the town. In the beginning an ancient tribe led by Shaman settled where their town is now. They flourished and always gave back to nature what they took. One year there was a bad winter storm and a group of scouts including Shaman’s Brother went out to search for more food. A few weeks passed until only Shaman’s Brother returned. Shaman nursed him back to health and he eventually told her of what happened. He and the other scouts had to hold up in a cave and went days without food. One of the scouts, who had been injured by a bear, died and the rest of the scouts ate his remains. Shaman’s Brother then killed and ate the rest of the scouts one by one. Shaman cast him out of the tribe and cast a curse on him which caused him to transform into the shape of many beasts and affected by the cycle of the moon. His affliction was called wendigo. In retaliation Shaman’s Brother attacked members of the tribe and inflicted them with the wendigo curse. Shaman noticed the members of the tribe afflicted with the curse were different from her brother and still lived with nature. She then cast a spell that if any members of her tribe left the confines of the tribal area, they would only live the length of one lunar cycle.
