{{quotation|[[Veteran Relief Crew Scout#Dialogue|Veteran Relief Crew Scout]]|Those who give inโthose who eat the flesh of their ownโbecome the boneskinner. It doesn't just consume you. It takes your voice, your last words, your dying screams... And it uses you to hunt.}}<br />
[[Champion Boneskinner|Boneskinners]] are [[Aberrant]] minions of the [[Elder Dragon]] [[Jormag]] from [[norn]] legend that lurk around [[Bjora Marches]].<ref>[[Whisper in the Dark (achievements)|Sweet Surrender]]: Become a boneskinner.<br>You have accepted Jormag's strength and transformed into one of Jormag's minions. The flesh of mortals is yours to devour.</ref> It is said that the [[Aberrant Forest]] hides dark and powerful [[magic]] related to the corrupted [[Corrupted Wolverine Spirit|Wolverine]] which can drive people to madness-induced hunger. Those who succumb to this hunger eventually fall prey to cannibalism, becoming insatiable and hungering for more and more food as they slowly become a boneskinner.<ref name="Relief Crew Scout">[[Veteran Relief Crew Scout#Dialogue|Veteran Relief Crew Scout]]</ref><br />
<br />
Boneskinners are stalkers in the darkness that set traps, ambushes, throw their voice, and mimick previous victims to trick their prey before consuming them.<ref name="Relief Crew Scout" /><ref>[[The Icebrood Saga announcement]]</ref> While there are multiple Boneskinners lurking, they are solo hunters by nature, and are rarely found in groups.<br />
<br />
At least one of the Boneskinners haunting the Aberrant Forest is a former [[kodan]],<ref>[[What's Happening?]]</ref> who was friends with [[Bright Shore]], who himself is slowly succumbing to insatiable hunger.<ref>[[The Hunger#Dialogue|The Hunger]]</ref> Within the Aberrant Forest is a male norn [[Vigil]] soldier, muttering to himself with the bodies of other Vigil soldiers littered at his feet, possibly on his way to becoming a new Boneskinner.<br />
<br />
{{spoilers|It is implied that [[Sejm]] underwent the transformation while him and [[Frode]] survived a harsh winter during a travel to Saldistead.<ref>[[Frode's Journal, Page 4]]</ref> After weeks surviving on low food and with no signs of life nearby, he suggested Frode to hunt for food, and as he ran faster than Frode, he was found frozen in place, shredding, bleeding, screaming, but as he begged [[Wurm (Spirit of the Wild)|Wurm]] for help, his transformation stopped midway and as Frode approached him, the ice cracked and he drowned in the frozen waters.|''[[Guild Wars 2: Secrets of the Obscure]]''}}<br />

== Trivia ==<br />
* Boneskinners were originally called Wendigo,<ref>[[Guild Chat - Episode 95]]</ref> referring to the [[w:Wendigo|Wendigo]], a mythological spirit that originates from Algonquian tribes. They should not be confused with the unrelated [[gww:Berserking Wendigo|Berserking Wendigo]] from ''[[Guild Wars|Guild Wars: Eye of the North]]''.<br />
* The Boneskinner was teased during the [[Extra Life]] charity stream, with the text: "๐๐๐๐๐โ ๐โ๐ผ ๐น๐โ๐ผ๐๐๐โโ๐ผโ : At $100k we'll reveal the date and title of the next Living World episode!"<br />
** A teaser video was shown after hitting the $100k mark.<ref>[https://www.twitch.tv/videos/502907293?t=6h01m30s ArenaNet Extra Life Game Day stream, third video at 6:01:30], Twitch.tv</ref><br />
* The Boneskinners have been designed by the following developers:<ref>[https://www.katepicchi.com/boneskinner Boneskinner], Katepicchi.com<br />
:"Matthew Pugnetti created beautiful concept work for this, the excellent Chris Bennett worked on the high poly sculpt, and Nathaniel Hubbell, Nick Ajer and Lee Bledsoe made some great effects. Designers were Justin Reilly and Taylor Southerland."</ref><br />
