The UNSC Wendigo is a versatile humanoid drone designed to be used in a variety of situations in combat. The Wendigo's main ranged weapon is a pair of M7 SMGs, though they have been known to use other guns. Their alternate weapon on choice is a large, razor sharp tipped spear. The Wendigo is very quick and agile, which gives it an advantage in combat. However, it is lightly armored, making it highly vulnerable to enemy attacks. To counter this, it is also outfitted with energy shields which are slightly weaker than the shields used by Spartans.
