Dogmen - Legendary creatures with canine or wolf heads and anthropoid bodies capable of walking or running upright.

Unlike weredogs, or shape-shifters, dogmen seem to be hybrids. Dogmen are reported around the world. In lore they have been considered a type of debased human being.

The Cynocephali, or Dog-heads, were well known in classical times, and were among the most feared of monstrous races. In some descriptions, they were fire-breathing cannibals with enormous teeth.

A race of raw-meat-eating dog headed men said to live in india was described as early as the fourth century B.C. Ctesias of Cnidus, the court physician to Artaxerxes of Persia and a philosopher, historian, and writer, wrote of them. Ctesias’s works were extensively quoted by Pliny the Elder in the first century C.E. in his work Historia Naturalis. Ctesias called the mutants the Dog-Headed Men of the Northern Hills:

In the hills there are men who have a dog's head, and whose clothes are the skins of wild beasts. They have no language; they bark like dogs and so make themselves understood to one another. Their teeth are longer than those of dogs; their nails are like those of animals, but longer and more curved. They are black and very honest, like the rest of the Indians, with whom they trade; they understand the Indian language, but they cannot reply except by barking and making signs with their hands and fingers like deaf-mutes. The Indians call them Calystrians in their language, which means dog-headed. They live on raw meat. Their population may reach 129,000.

The explorer Marco Polo also described a race of dog-headed men on the island of "Angaman," thought to be one of the Andaman Islands.

Ctesias's writings have long been dismissed by scientists, who point out that he never went to India himself and knew of it only by hearsay and second-hand reports. His "dog-men" may have been monkeys, or a race of hairy pygmies called the Vedduh from Ceylon. As for Polo, he also is dismissed as probably having been influenced by Ctesias.

In Egyptian lore, Queen Hatshepsut sent sailors to the "land of Punt" (part of Somalia), where they found dog-headed men who were fierce warriors.

References to dog-headed men appear in Christianity. The Theodore Psalter in the British Library features an illustration of Jesus preaching to dog-headed men—perhaps a symbol of the heathen. An apocryphal work, Contendings of the Apostles, tells of Andrew and Bartholomew preaching to a giant cannibal named Abominable, who has a doglike head and bestial body features. The legendary St. Christopher was described in the eighth century as being "one of the Dog-heads," who ate human flesh.

In North America, the Dogmen of Michigan are said to haunt northern Michigan. The legend dates to the late 19th century, when loggers were said to encounter a strange, large black dog that reared up on its hind legs.

Folklore accounts recorded since then tell of sightings of a creature with a dog's head and a man's body. "Dogmen" were said to break into houses and buildings, leaving claw and teeth marks on doors, and to attack people and animals, some of whom supposedly died of fright. A creature with a man's body and dog's head was encountered swimming in Claybank Lake near Manistee, where fishermen had to fight it off to keep it out of their boat.

Bigfoot vs Dogman: Michigan Cryptid Rivalry EXPLAINED!

The connection between Michigan's Bigfoot and another famous local cryptid, the Michigan Dogman, represents a fascinating area of overlap in the state's cryptozoological lore. first reported near Traverse City in 1887, the Dogman shares certain habitat preferences with Bigfoot, with both creatures reportedly favoring remote wooded areas, particularly in the northwestern Lower Peninsula. Intriguingly, some researchers have proposed a territorial relationship between the 2 cryptids, noting that Bigfoot sightings tend to decrease in areas where Dogman accounts are prevalent.

Other theories suggest they might represent different interpretations of the same phenomenon, with witnesses expectations and cultural backgrounds influencing how they perceive these encounters. The timing of sightings adds another layer of complexity as Dogman sightings reportedly spike during years ending in 7, while Bigfoot appears more consistently across time.

Aca con 2 ocs de ranfren

Duque brutus el dogmen/dogman practicamente un hombre perro lo hice porque al ver que existe catmans y ratmans porque no un dogmen? Y haci lo cree en personalidad puede ser muy hostil agresivo y su nivel de peligro es muy alto aparte que mide como 2 metros y no necesita de armas para matar porque con solo sus dientes y sus propias manos aunque no lo parezca puede desgarrar y romper huesos con suma facilidad

Sus relaciones con lo miembro de la mansion

Sebastian le fastidia tan solo tenerlo enfrente y lo amenaza para que que se le quite su camino aunque prefiere no hacerle nada porque le aburre pelear con seres debiluchos

Luther es mas tranquilo y leal con el y se encarga de cuidar y vigilar la caza si los miembros se la mansion sale porque solo es capaz de arreglarselas incluso si intentara invadir um ratman tiene la experiencia y capacidades fisicas auditivas y olfativas para dectetar cualquier tipo de plaga intruso o amenaza para la mansion

Randal cree que es muy inmaduro pero no le desagrada del todo almenos lo tolera un poco solo por ser el hermano de luther y por su titulo de "principe oscuro"

Nyen se pelean muy seguido pero cuando ambos estan en una situacion que no pueden arreglarselas en solitario o le cuesta solos como una invasion de puros ratman hacen una tregua temporal siendo aliados con una mente muy perversa y sadica para cuando terminen se matar ala amenaza o invasor vuelven a su pelea

Nyon la verdad no le disgusta tanto su precencia a ser mas tranquilo lo tolera hasta cierto punto pero no quiere decir que tampoco le agrade

Nana la conoce pero le tiene una leve fobia por ser una serpiente (tiene un pequeño miedo alas serpientes) no lo muestra para no verse debil pero prefiere evitar cualquier tipo en contacto con ella

Kitty no sabe quien es

Y aca el otro personaje

Clarences onlamder el nuevo vecino de la familia ivory (la mansion de luther y randal) fue creado para ser como el vecino gruñon de la trama pero tiene un poco mas de profundidad y historia aparte de tener su rol como el vecino quejon

Clarence se podria decir que es un humanoide casi del mismo tipo como lo es luther, clarences es elegante y culto tambien pero es mucho mas agresivo hasta al punto de enojarse con la mas pequeña cosa como un ejemplo que nyen intente pisar su cesped solo para molestarlo pero hay se le acaba lo mamoncito cuando clarences lo espanta con un monton de aspiradoras inteligentes o cosa que hacen espantar un gato pero.. aparte de ese lado tan agresivo tambien tiene un lado tranquilo sencible y artistico donde expresa toda su rabia y enojo con la pintura y la musica (y practicamente lo ayuda y hace buena musica obras de arte) aunque siempre tiene ese dileman de ser alguien muy perfeccionista cosa que lo frustra mas y vuelve a su ciclo de enojo y rabia en cual lo hace mas impredecible emocionalmente que luther porque con luther podria ver talvez un tipo se patron pero con clanrece no puedes saber en que momento podria explotar lo que lo vuelve un poco mas peligroso pero a un nivel muy parecido al de luther su expresion es mas una ligera broma de su cruel destino de que nunca sera genuinamente feliz porque todas sus acciones autodestrutivas no solo dañan a otros sino a el mismo

Forma como se relaciona con los miembros de la mansion

Randal no lo soporta y no lo quiere ver ni en pintura

Sebastian: no sabe quien es aunque le verdad no le importa lo que le pase

Luther: seria con mas es mas abierto y un poco mas tranquilo (y tambien siente un ligero crush con el aunque estando un poco confundido no estando seguro si en verdad le gusta o solo le agrada estar con el)

Nyon simplemente no lo mira mal cuando lo ve mientras va a visitar a luther

Nyen lo detesta en palabras de clanrece el diria "fuera de mi cesped gato pulgoso!"

Nana no la conoce bien aunque su cara le recuerda un poco a una cantante de blues por alguna razon

Kitty no tiene ni idea de quien es

Los ratmans "hoy se come" y literal los caza y se lo come XD solo si intentan invadir su casa ya algunos ratman sabe que este loco se come a los de su especie y algunos prefieren no arriesgarse pisar su casa por miedo de toparselo

This is your hostile reminder that if I hear you make a Dogman report and you describe its legs as being "bent backwards, like a dog's", I am going to hunt you down and snatch your nutsack off like I'm trying to start a chainsaw.
