Werebears in humanoid form tend to be stout, well-muscled, and hairy. Their brown hair is thick, and males usually wear beards. They may have reddish, blond, ivory, or black hair, matching the color of the ursine form. They dress in simple cloth and leather garments that are easy to remove, repair, or replace

[top]COMBAT

Werebears fight just as brown bears do in animal form. In humanoid or hybrid form, they favor large, heavy weapons such as greataxes or greatswords. The werebear?s greataxe is a Medium weapon, so it can wield the axe in one hand in hybrid form.
Alternate Form (Su): A werebear can assume the form of a brown bear or a bear-humanoid hybrid.
Bear Empathy (Ex): Communicate with bears and dire bears, and +4 racial bonus on Charisma-based checks against bears and dire bears.
Curse of Lycanthropy (Su): Any humanoid or giant hit by a werebear?s bite attack in animal or hybrid form must succeed on a DC 15 Fortutude save or contract lycanthropy.
Improved Grab (Ex): To use this ability, a werebear must be in bear form and must hit with a claw attack. It can then attempt to start a grapple as a free action without provoking an attack of opportunity.
Skills: Werebears have a +4 racial bonus on Swim checks in any bear form.
The werebear presented here is a 1st-level human warrior and natural lycanthrope, using the following base ability scores: Str13, Dex11, Con12, Int10, Wis9, Cha8.
