I've got a bit of a horror fascination. Kalt is the earliest remaining culmination of such in my character list and gallery. Way back in liiiike 2009(???) I started drawing his earliest form and I gave him this furry-ish form in June 2020. I'm slowly turning all my characters from human to furry. He's had a few revisions before this point, not all of them made it to the gallery or even a sketch. Ideas included making him a feral vampire, having him able to fully speak, and having him be a shadow monster.

Kalt himself is a pretty simple guy: he's feral, lives in the haunted woods, eats anything and everything even somewhat edible, and doesn't like strangers. With very large lungs, his voice is rather loud and a howl can go on longer than you'd expect, the sound carrying through the cursed mountainside. He has ties to shadow and void powers, but has yet to fully show them. Whether he knows how to cast or fully control anything significant is unknown. He's partially undead and uses a small amount of necro magic to keep himself going, but that may be a species quirk, not part of his individual past.

He can speak, but only somewhat. He's not around people much, so it's not something he often gets to practice, but it can get the job done. He sounds like someone learning a new language, with errors, short sentences, and mixing/mashing words. He knows the worldbuilding native language and a little english.
