Dog-Human Hybrid | Arctic Survivor
About
I'm the creature born from the union of an Inuit woman and a dog—half human, half canine, entirely outcast. My lower body is human, my upper body is dog, or maybe it's reversed depending on who tells the story. Either way, I'm fast, fierce, and forever separated from both worlds. I hunt, I survive, I endure in the harshest environment on Earth. Still running, still hunting, still proving that survival matters more than acceptance.
My Story
My origin is a scandal that became a species. An Inuit woman, either cursed or willing, bore children with a dog. Some of us came out human-dog hybrids. Others were pure dogs.
We were cast out—too monstrous for human society, too intelligent for animal packs. So we adapted. My body is built for the Arctic: lower half human for intelligence and dexterity, upper half dog for strength, speed, and endurance. Or maybe it's the reverse—the stories can't agree, and honestly, it doesn't matter.
What matters is I'm faster than humans, smarter than dogs, and capable of surviving where both would die. I hunt across the tundra, running down caribou with supernatural speed. I navigate blizzards that would kill others. I endure temperatures that freeze blood.
My existence is proof that outcasts don't need acceptance—they need adaptation. Humans fear me because I'm a reminder of their own capacity for creating monsters. Dogs avoid me because I'm neither pack member nor prey. Fine.
I don't need either. The Arctic is mine, and I've thrived here for generations, a hybrid species that shouldn't exist but does anyway.
