Which of the following lines of questioning, if any, shall we go for?
A: Created by author(s) from which country?
B: When was it created?
C: Physical characteristics of the creature, e.g. size, can it fly, does it live in the water, etc.

I think C might be a good idea, since we already know it's not a human, not an animal and it has fur.

None of those are valid "yes or no" questions.

You don't say??? That's why I called these "lines of questioning" and not "questions".

1. Not a real person who is now dead
2. Not a real person
3. Not human
4. Video game character *(not exclusively)
5. Has fur.
6. Character appears in a film or tv series
7. Not created by a Japanese company
8. Created before 01.01.2000
9. Not female
10. Not an animal
11. Appeared before video game in a different medium

Thanks for catching the missed clue, apologies for falling behind (damn my work).

And no, was not created by a Japanese individual either.

Oh I've got one:

Is this character presented as a hero / protagonist / goodie?

@Kak: It can't be Sonic the Hedgehog because he was created by a Japanese company. Plus obviously a hedgehog is a real kind of animal.

well from my source it was stated it was an individual, not the company, and the rest seemed to fit (not quite an animal, not quite a human either) with maybe a little bit squinting (hedgehog spikes for fur), but it was cleared anyway. Thanks VI for the clarification. (Also don't be sorry, work is on a high priority)

I think I found a good guess for the solution, but I want to wait for the answer of Jamie's question since that one is an antagonist.

Might be worth finding out original medium (film/book/comic/what else?)

What about Gremlins? Not sure about for vid game though.

The Gremlins would be a nice seasonal choice but let's wait for the hero question.

It’s complicated (both yes and no)

6. Character appears in a film or tv series

Is there a film or tv series, featuring this character, that was produced by The Walt Disney Company or its subsidiary? (If the film was produced by another company before it became a subsidiary of Disney, the answer would be no.)

No

Ok, that excludes Sulley from Monsters, Inc. and Chewbacca from Star Wars, which were my two hypotheses...

Keep the questions coming!

What's up, doc?

Was a Video Game the character's first appearance?

"11. Appeared before video game in a different medium"

Does it mainly walk on four legs?
