Craig, a character in the It Lives series, is a dirt monster subserviant to Astrid Wescott who poses as her bodyguard. He is first seen in It Lives Beneath, Chapter 2.
Appearance
Craig has brown hair, brown eyes, and light skin. He wears black sunglasses, a black suit jacket with a white shirt, and black pants. As the stone creature, he resembles a giant statue made from a large brown rock with roots and stones covering its body, including one with a rune that looks just like the one in It Lives In The Woods. It also appears to have no eyes despite having eye sockets. The rock with the rune is revealed to be his Achilles' heel, as smashing it or taking it away from the stone creature will cause it to disintegrate.
Personality
Given that Craig is a dirt monster meant to simply serve Astrid, he doesn't have much of a personality. In his human form he's usually quiet and obedient, and later when he's exposed as a villain, he is seen being violent.
