Dogmen

Dogmen are terrifying, werewolf-like beings, occasionally found wandering around the environment. They are grey/black in color, and can be easily distinguished from other creatures. As well as being extremely resilient and hard to kill, Dogmen use their claws to attack and defend themselves, which can cause grave, bleeding wounds.
== Behaviour ==
== Tactics ==
It is highly recommended to run, unless you have weapons and skills necessary to defend yourself against them. Using firepower instead of melee is a good tactic, but if you do not have a gun, or do not wish to waste your supplies on them, the only other tactic is to simply stay away.
Dogmen are able to see well in the dark, similar to the way the nightvision goggles work for characters, gaining additional advantage over humans and becoming more dangerous during the nighttime.
Dogmen may also travel in a pack, which can make them a most dangerous force of nature; running away may be near impossible. Sometimes, you might need to thin out their group numbers before it can be possible to run away. Bringing a gun such as a rifle with bullets and a shotgun with slug rounds may be effective in killing the group one by one from 20-25 meters away. Also, there is a chance that if you are able to kill most of the group, the last surviving Dogman may be coerced to run away.
== Trivia ==
* Although it's rare, it is found that Dogmen have a chance to run away if you threaten them with a rifle, whether you have ammunition for it or not.
* Dogmen are commonly confused with Werewolves, probably because they share the same behavior and appearance.
* Dogmen are based on real-life legendary creature, the Michigan Dogman, supposedly first sighted in the region in 1887.
