Section heading
The Ewaipanoma are "Headless Men", an unusual tribe of beings that has long been extinct in the material world, wiped out by the Wyrm-corrupted Europeans. These Europeans called them "Acephali", naming them from their own ancient legends. They feared them as cannibals and savages. While it is true that they are primarily meat eaters, they are hardly cannibals. They are only savage in their fighting techniques. Few Wwaipanoma remain in El Dorado and, in truth, are hardly "headless". Their faces are simply located in the center of their chests.

Living strictly in these woods, having little contact with humans or Garou, the Ewaipanoma are almost painfully shy. This does not, however, stop them from hunting down the gigantic boars that roam the woods, and it certainly does not stop them from protecting themselves.

Weapons: The headless men have no natural weaponry, but they carry long spears with silver tips.

Image: The Ewaipanoma are heavily muscled and gargantuan, standing just over 12 feet tall. The Ewaipanoma's thick skin is dark brown and textured like bark. While the headless men are not in any way Wyrm-corrupted, it is always possible that, spotted one at a time, the pack may think that they are fomori. If attacked, the Ewaipanoma will call for assistance from its people and fight to the death. The headless men give and ask no quarter.

Roleplaying Notes: Never turn your back on the enemy and never surrender. If you are treated civil, you will welcome anyone you meet as a friend. Long association with the Black Furies has left you with the ability to understand and even speak with the Garou. El Dorado is your friend and protector, and you would die for him.
