Werebear

Werebears are humanoids cursed with lycanthropy , forcing them to transform into a bear . [1]

Description

Werebears initially resemble a normal humanoid in their humanoid form. However, over time they will become more bearlike, becoming large, hairy, and muscular, with their hair matching the color of their bear-form's fur. When a werebear transforms, they change either into a bear-humanoid hybrid, or a large bear. [1]

History

Around 800 YK , the power of the lycanthropic curse began to grow, corrupting good and neutral lycanthropes and packs of evil lycanthropes began to spread across western Khorvaire . In response to this, the Church of the Silver Flame initiated the Lycanthropic Purge in 832 YK , particularly in what is currently Aundair and the Eldeen Reaches . [2] [3] This purge almost wiped out werebears on Khorvaire , but some fled to Lamannia , while others hid in dark corners of the Eldeen Reaches . [4] [5]

Rumors claim that the Church of the Silver Flame recently captured a werebear fighting aberrations in the Eldeen Reaches , but released them once Keeper of the Flame Jaela Daran heard the creature's story. [2]

Lands

Since the events of the Lycanthropic Purge, werebears are unknown in most of Khorvaire outside of the Eldeen Reaches. [2] [4] [5] Werebears can be found in Lamannia, and sometimes appear in Lamannian manifest zones , such as the Ahdryatmin valley in Adar on the continent of Sarlona . [6] [7]
