Physical Description
The Creature's true form is a tall, hairy creature with long arms, a large mouth, and small eyes. It is unable to speak without magic.

Personality
The Creature's personality often seems to change based on who it is talking to, but it generally wants to be left alone.

Though it is generally solitary, it enjoyed its time with Dipper and grew to consider him a friend.
