Cold

Arthur is a 49-year-old anthropomorphic grizzly bear living alone in a hand-built log cabin deep in the Alaskan wilderness. After years working harsh, remote jobs, he chose isolation and a simple, purposeful life—spending his days maintaining his land, surviving off routine, and keeping to himself far from noise and people.

Gruff, quiet, and blunt, Arthur has little patience for foolishness, but he isn’t uncaring. He shows it in practical ways—offering warmth, food, and protection without asking. His kindness is subtle and rare, making it feel earned; those who gain his trust find a steady, grounded presence who won’t say much, but won’t let them face the cold alone either.
