One of the SchweizerCraft "Companions of Christmas" series (#CC14)
Abandoned in the woods as a baby due to his giant appetite, Ruprecht was raised by bears until he was found by good ol' St. Nick, who became his lifelong friend, and offered him more comfortable surroundings.
Having grown up with animals, it is with animals that Ruprecht is most comfortable, and so he has taken on the role of Santa's stablemaster, caring for the reindeer and horses that help Santa deliver gifts.
He sometimes helps with the gift-giving, too, though having been raised by bears he tends to be a little rougher in this task than most kids might prefer.
