Not sure if traitor Tumnus would survive the Disney film question... Darn it, you're right. Forgot to check that. No idea who that even is. One of the better-known supporting characters from the Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis. Surely you've heard of "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe", etc?...

No idea who that even is.

The character has been in both situations considered heroic and others that would be considered non-heroic. About all I can say about that without giving too big of a clue. You could just say that you are unable to answer that question, which would give us another question . . . I disagree. He did ...

Ok I've got my actual free guess:

Is it Krampus?

We’re definitely headed in the right direction now, but unfortunately no not Krampus.

Is it the Moomintroll from the series created by Tove Jansson?

No.

(It’s a much more well known character)

Oh!

Is it GOLLUM?

Shit no, Gollum does not have fur.

WITHDRAW THIS GUESS please, don't answer it.

Withdrawn. On the right mental track though.

The Gremlins speculation was probably the closest so far.

Is the character a werewolf or a character who has met/seen/encountered a werewolf?

No

Hints:
- main character
- useful to figure out original medium or audience
- useful hint that he’s both yes and no a hero

I'm tempted to ask if it was created before 1250 AD. It might be a character from some kind of mythology, e.g. a minotaur.

Sorry, this is NOT an official question. I'm just asking other players if they think it would be a good question.

Gotcha

My free guess: is it cousin Itt? (Addams family)

Fun guess, but no.

To avoid going too far down the wrong rabbit hole, let me just say I wasn’t even aware this character ever appeared in puppet medium before this question was asked. Probably still a useful clue though.

Is this character ever portrayed via the medium of puppetry?

Yes

Please also clarify if a non-animal in the shape of an animal would count as animal for question 9 (or rather question 10 since we missed 2.5 before) or not and we would need another question if we would want to rule said option out. Like, I wanted to guess Sonic the hedgehog since pretty early but...

Oh, I wonder if it's a Muppet. They are furry, many of them don't represent real animals, and they have appeared in a variety of media including TV, films, and video games. Many of the Muppets are animals: Kermit the Frog, Fozzie Bear, Miss Piggy, Rowlf the Dog... ...but one springs to my mind that...
