'Little John'

Little John is a lame, almost toothless Balverine, owned by a retired trapper who calls himself Marx.
Despite his obvious handicaps, he can still leave a nasty scratch or two on people when they're not careful, or just whenever he feels like it.
Marx's interest in keeping exotic and unusual pets has lead him to proudly keep this balverine on his property. Oddly enough, Marx likes to roughhouse with Little John often, which is why Marx is covered in scars and scratches. He insists that it doesn't hurt.

Marx likes to tell visitors that when Little John bites you, "It feels like being pinched by an ogre!"
