Skinwalkers are known as the cousins of werewolves. Like the werewolves, they infect through biting a person. However, unlike the werewolves they can change forms at any time, and they always take the form of a dog.
They are not to be confused with shapeshifters, because they cannot become multiple breeds of dog; only one. They have a single dog form, and a single human form.
There is a lot of different lore out there on skinwalkers, although Navajo lore is the lore that tells of man actually becoming dog.
Skinwalkers live in packs, though sometimes they can be loners. Packs are usually formed very similar to wolf packs, with a clear alpha leading the pack.
There can be alphas of the packs, but all skinwalkers obey the Alpha of them all; meaning the first skinwalker ever created: the one who changed the first humans into the creatures that now live amongst you.
No one knows who the Alpha is, but they know of the message he has sent:
Make more skinwalkers.
