Woodgod was created by bio-geneticists David and Ellen Pace as part of a project which hoped to combine mankind's intellect with the animal kingdom's proclivity towards peaceful existence by creating a new hybrid species by gene-splicing human and animal DNA. He first awoke in an adult body due to an accelerated growth rate with the mind of an infant. He learned quickly, however. In five minutes his brain cell count tripled. In two days he could walk. By listening to the Paces, he learned English in a matter of days.
