Often described as deer-like or bearing the head of a stag, the wendigo (also known as windigo, weendigo, windago, waindigo, windiga, witiko, wihtikow, and numerous other variants)^[1] is a creature appearing in the legends of theAlgonquian peoples.

It is thought of variously as a malevolent cannibalistic spirit that could possess humans or a monster that humans could physically transform into. Those who indulged in cannibalism were at particular risk,^[2] and the legend appears to have reinforced this practice as a taboo.

Wendigo psychosis is the name conventionally given to a disputed culture-bound disorder featuring an intense craving for human flesh and the fear that the sufferer would turn into a cannibal. This was alleged to have occurred among Algonquian native cultures.^[3]

Recently the wendigo has also featured in modern horror fiction. There are also many camp stories about the Wendigo.

Margy and Sansa for queens on the Iron Throne

Okay, but they have to let Daenerys join and rule as a triumvirate when she gets to Westeros.

Daenerys burns all their enemies and drives off the white walkers and Margery is a cunning politician that solves hunger in Westeros and Sansa holds lovely dinner parties and makes friends with all these useful people by being a charming young lady 

and together they rule the Seven Kingdoms with an iron fist 

(and Sansa and Marg ride Rhaegal and Viserion respectively alongside Dany on Drogon)

Hey man, the dragon DOES have three heads.

IF ONLY.
