Orkbear
Description
The Orkbear is a terrifying fusion of orc and owlbear, standing over 8 feet tall. Its body is covered in coarse, dark fur mottled with patches of rough, greenish skin. The creature's muscular arms end in massive, curved claws capable of rending armor and flesh alike. Its face is a grotesque blend of a snarling orc and a predatory owl, featuring a hooked beak, glowing red eyes, and a mane of feathers around its neck. The Orkbear moves with a predatory grace, its powerful legs carrying it swiftly through the wilderness. Its roar, a chilling mix of an orc's battle cry and an owl's screech, echoes through the forests it hunts.
