Dougal was a male Demiguise that accompanied Newt Scamander as he researched Magizoology and visited New York in 1926.[1]
Biography[]
Dougal was one of the creatures that escaped Newt Scamander's suitcase in New York in December 1926. During that time, he, as a result of a Demiguise's maternal instinct, took care of an Occamy that had also escaped from the case with him. He and the Occamy were recaptured by Newt, with the help of Jacob Kowalski, Tina Goldstein, and Queenie Goldstein after causing a disturbance in Ginzberg Delaunay, a No-Maj department store.[1]
At some point after 1927, following the theft of the suitcase by Skender from the Circus Arcanus, the suitcase was left briefly unattended. During this time, Gwenlyn Jenkins, a Squib employed as a worker, curiously opened the case, from which Dougal emerged, wandering out into the circus grounds. She followed him, eventually guiding the Demiguise back into the suitcase. Jenkins entered after him, leading to the discovery of the case's hidden interior.[2]
Personality and traits[]
Dougal seemed to be a rather kind-hearted and benevolent creature, as he kindly took care of a young Occamy by giving it food and tending to its needs.[1]
