Special Abilities

Fiery Destruction (Su) A stuffed bear's is filled with dried sawdust, making it vulnerable to fire, but also potentially dangerous when ignited. When a stuffed bear is reduced to 0 or less hit points with fire damage, when on fire, or when standing in fire, it explodes, dealing 5d6 points of fire damage within 20-ft. radius burst (half on a successful DC 14 Reflex saving throw). The saving throw DC is Dexterity-based.

Muffled Roar (Su) When charging, a stuffed bear tries to roar, though the actual sound issued is subdued due to the bear's shoddy construction. Everyone within 60 feet, except the target of the charge is forced to step back 5 feet away from the charging stuffed bear, while the target of the charge loses any readied action (DC 15 Will saving throw negates). This is a fear effect and its saving throw DC is Charisma-based.

A stuffed bear can be a terror to behold... Once the viewer stops laughing at the sight of sawdust spilling from the loose stitches and its ungainly gait.
