A very rare case of a character without a wiki page!

Gregor Samsa
Gregor Samsa is also correct! Alas, a minute too late.

I hope the passes and such made sense now. While Gregor Samsa was once a human, he does not appear in human form in The Metamorphosis, so I felt answering yes or no would be inaccurate. I answered Yes to shapeshifter, and No to human-animal hybrid as I feel that usually describes chimerical creatures.

As for his origin - The Metamorphosis was apparently first published in a German-language magazine in October 1915 before it was published as a novella. Also, there is apparently a graphic novel adaptation as well.

I believe that was the 19th question, by the way. Get your free guesses in while you can! Though I know there were some confusing answers, I think all the information you need to get it has been provided.

Yes.
