Jesse Mayfield Reference
-- [Quote source]
Jesse Mayfield is the definition of "giant dog that is still scared of things less than half his size". He's a shy, gentle, anxious person who ultimately would very much like to not be a giant terrifying monster. Adopted and raised by a human from infancy he never developed the natural cruelty or prey drive most members of his species have, and instead lives a fairly normal life with his husband. He's an academic who enjoys literature, and speaks in a somewhat stilted, overly formal way.
Being somewhat well-known in his homeworld for being one of the two people to successfully find a legendary gold hoard, The Pool of Wishes, hasn't lead to much progress in being actually accepted, and, while content in his own way, it's never stopped weighing on his mind how deeply he wishes he could just be a normal person, able to walk amongst others without fear or stigma.

Backstory
It was at his security job that he met Chester Mayfield, an eccentric, honest man who, in an act of stupid desperation, tried to rob the bank for $200, with a broken pistol. Jesse lead him outside without issue, and found himself surprised and intrigued when Chester continued to make attempts at getting inside, clearly lacking the normal fear people had of him.
Ultimately Jesse inquired as to why he was trying so hard to steal a relatively small amount of money. When Chester explained he was going to use it for supplies to journey out into the deadly deserts to the East in a search for a children's fairytale Pool of Wishes Jesse simply gave him the money out of his own savings as a gift. He was further surprised when Chester invited him along, and he happily agreed, leading to a long, largely idiotic journey into some of the most brutal nature the continent had to offer.
Through the adventure he and Chester grew incredibly close, and by the time they'd reached the place legends said the Pool would be, Jesse had started to hope that they may be true. They were. In a way that ultimately did not matter to Jesse. The "Pool of Wishes" was not a magic location granting wishes, but instead an impossibly massive hoard of gold, and precious gems. Jesse broke down at the sight, having to realize that, while the place of legend existed, it could never grant him the one wish he desperately wanted fulfilled.
Still, life pressed on, and more happily than Jesse had ever really expected. He and Chester got married, and built a beautiful home for themselves with the vast wealth they now possessed. He's comfortable, loved, and has found his own happiness the best he can.
But the sting never really left, aching in his chest anytime he thinks he'll never really be able to go out, enjoy the world, or even just kiss his husband without risking him harm.

He doesn't like walking on all 4's, but will if forced to by ceiling height, or when climbing a steeper surface.
