Irving Griswold

His face was round, pink-cheeked. He looked like a bald cherub. He did not look like a werewolf, but he was one. Even lycanthropy can't cure baldness.

Race Lycanthrope - Werewolf
Status Alive
Title Reporter for the Saint Louis Post-Dispatch
Description He's got frizzy brown hair with a bald spot on top. He is exactly Anita's height with a round, pink-cheeked face. He wears a pair of round wire-framed glasses.
Commentary * Irving is a lycanthrope, but in secret. Lycanthropy is treated like AIDS. If a person has it, they are often discriminated against in a job.

* He often helps Anita in researching things. She introduced him to Jean-Claude against her better judgment.

* In college, he had a double major; English literature and journalism.

* Now that he knows Jean-Claude, he is sorry he doubted Anita. Irving is made to recall he is only Jean-Claude's animal.

* We see Irving for the first time in wolf form in CD. In animal form, Irving is a huge wolf with thick grey-brown fur, "fluffy and dry, as if the wolf had been freshly washed and blow-dried."

* When Irving gets in between Richard and Marcus in order to spare Anita from being involved, he ends up almost getting tortured by Raina for it. But Anita steps in and offers her protection, thus accomplishing two things. She saves him from Raina, and declares herself as a dominant rogue in front of the pack.
