Designed in the middle of the [[thirty-second century]], the '''''Wendigo''''' is a Medium Class [[OmniMech]] designed and produced originally for [[Clan Nova Cat]]. The 'Mech's creation stems from the results of the Clan's prolonged efforts with [[Draconis Combine]]'s [[Luthien Armor Works]] to produce a replacement design for [[Clan Nova Cat Touman|its ''touman'']]. The resulting ''[[Avalanche]]'' turned out to be less than what the Clan had hoped for, so using the basic premise of the ''Avalanche'' design, the results of Clan Scientists would become the ''Wendigo''.

The ''Wendigo'' was first deployed just after the [[Draconis Combine]] commenced its invasion of the [[Republic of the Sphere]]. After deployment of early prototype models, a more refined ''Wendigo'' would emerge to become the Nova Cat's frontline OmniMech.  However, near the end of the "Nova Cat Rebellion," the ''Wendigo'''s production facilities would be badly damaged by fighting between [[Amphigean Light Assault Group|Combine forces]] and Nova Cat's [[Gamma Galaxy (Clan Nova Cat)|Gamma Galaxy]].  The end of the rebellion and death of the Nova Cats would lead to the ''Wendigo'' being dispersed among [[Clan Sea Fox]] and [[Draconis Combine]].<ref>''Technical Readout: 3145 Draconis Combine'', p. 36: Wendigo - Background</ref>

Built strictly with Clan technology, the ''Wendigo'' uses [[Technology Rating|advanced technology]] innovations in its design.  Among these new advances are the 9.5 tons of [[Reflective Armor]] on its hull, and a relocated cockpit in the [[Torso-Mounted Cockpit|torso]].  The design features at its heart a 300-rated [[XL fusion engine]], allowing it to reach speeds upwards of 97 km/h.

Allotted 19.5 tons of pod space, the OmniMech's primary configuration features a wide range of long-range and short range weaponry.  These include a single [[LRM-10]] missile launcher, with an [[Ultra Autocannon/2]] for long range engagements.  For close-range engagements the 'Mech features four [[ER Medium Lasers]] and a single [[Streak SRM-6]] launcher.<ref name=TRO:3145DCp37/>
