-Beta Epitaph
Wisakejak is a Trickster who appears in Full Mortal Jacket, bound to the totem in the Colonel's office. He was also supposed to reappear in Ghost in the Military Machine.
Appearance
Wisakejak is an anthropomorphic coyote with purple and baige fur and eyes consisting only of black irises. Most of his fur is purple with an exception for his hands, belly and some patches on his ears all of which are baige. He has a short white tail on his back. Wisakejak's face consists of lumpy cheecks and elongated snout. Interestingly enough, Wisakejak has dimples on his cheek.
How To Free
Wisakejak can be freed by burning down the totem he is bound to. Bonfire is the only power which can achieve this, however there are no suitable fetters anywhere near Wisakejak. This can be remedied in few methods. The simplest method is using Wisakejak's Trojan Gift after gathering enough plasm and binding a ghost with Bonfire to the gift. Alternatively, binding a Fetch to the bathroom mirror attached to the office and using their gift powers can also be used. Simply placing the gift and waiting for a mortal to pick it up and bring it to the correct room. Another way is possessing a mortal who goes into the office with Arclight and using Bonfire when they enter the room. Once the totem is burnt, Wisakejak will be set free.
