Perhaps he could be a young boy (sticking with your idea) that grew up with a pack of hounds.

When you create a new world with him, instead of maxwell greeting you, it's a hound that can communicate with you and stays with you for the rest of the game (He can be killed but respawns after 3 days with the phrase "Time to feast". This special hound deals 35 damage and has 500hp making him extremely valuable early on. A CSI could be a whistle that at the cost of 10 sanity, summons a pack of hounds to help you fight.

He could be naturally immune to the cold as he has always lived outside with the pack and could even be able to wander around at night (So long as his hound assistant is there)

His health is 200, Sanity 300 (he lives with hounds so of coarse he would be able to withstand more) and Hunger at 300 (He has to learn how to survive without food)

Pigs and Beefalo are naturally hostile towards him, spiders come out at night to hunt you (the queen has a grudge against you)

You can't use any tools except for a CSI called the hound bane (Practically a bunch of hound teeth formed into a sword type item) Which deals 50 damage.

If you right click on your hound at night you can sleep at the cost of 50 hunger.
