URSINE WARRIOR

Ursine are bipedal beings that share a distant common ancestor with their more common bear cousins. They stand between 6 and 7 feet tall and weigh between 300 and 400 pounds. Ursine have muscular frames and are covered in thick, shaggy fur in shades of brown, black, and white, depending on their heritage.

Ursine tribes are extraordinarily territorial and live in the furthest corners of the wilderness, as far from civilization as possible. It’s rare to find an Ursine outside of its tribal territory, and if one is in sight, there are others in hiding nearby. They are fiercely loyal to their families and protective of their cubs. Ursine warriors are terrifying berserkers who have inspired many humanoid barbarian clans to emulate their innate battle rage.

Berserker. Ursine can enter a battle rage that increases their Strength and damage for a brief time, making them unstoppable killing machines.

Natural Resistance. Like their more common cousins, Ursine have adapted to their environment and evolved natural resistances based on their heritage.
