The Great Bear

The Great Bear is one of the Great and Wild Ones, living deep within the [Wild Forest]. As an NPC, he is played by [Brennan Lee Mulligan].

Appearance
The Great Bear appears as a big bear, roughly the size of a semi truck. He has a fur thick as night, with flowers and moss growing near his ankles. On his back, he has one or two sprouts of trees. His eyes are deep hazel and brown gold, and they seem to shimmer with wonder. His fangs are greater and sharper than any sword or spear. He smells of moss, earth, and sweet jasmine.

Among his feet, his children cavort, a great cavalcade of fairies and sprits.

History
There are different mythologies for the origin of the Great Bear. It has been said he was born at the heart of the world before the spirits of Star and Sun first alighted and woke him. Others have said it was the ending of the first winter that caused the Bear to emerge fully formed from the world. Yet more have sometimes said the Great Bear is the first child of the [Queen of the Sea] and the [King of the Forest]. If someone were to ask him, the Great Bear would much rather state his purpose: to live deeply and live well in the Wild Forest.
