Despite being awakened, you still age like a normal bear, reaching maturity at age 4 with an average lifespan of 25 years.

Bearfolk are typically over 6 feet tall, with some standing over 7 feet. Your size is Medium.

Here’s how to determine your height and weight randomly, starting with rolling a size modifier:

Size modifier = 2d10

Height = 5 feet + 6 inches + your size modifier in inches

Weight in pounds = 180 + (2d6 × your size modifier)

Your base walking speed is 30 feet. Your climbing speed is equal to your walking speed.

You can see in dim light within 60 feet of you as if it were bright light and in darkness as if it were dim light. You can’t discern color in darkness, only shades of gray.

Your claws are natural weapons, which you can use to make unarmed strikes. If you hit with them, you can deal slashing damage equal to 1d4 + your Strength modifier, instead of the bludgeoning damage normal for an unarmed strike.

You have advantage on Perception checks that rely on smell.

You can speak Common. You can also communicate with bears, although they'll likely have a hard time understanding complex ideas.
