The Ursine
Bear-like townsfolk forced into shelter because the hunters' poison clouds bypass none of their natural defenses.
Story so far
The artillery rocks spread green poison through the settlement. Unlike Carl, Princess Donut, the guards, and the were-beavers, the ursine lack immunity and remain hunkered down while buildings explode around them.
Appearance
Large bear-like humanoid residents sheltering inside the attacked town.
Role
Their vulnerability gives the hunter barrage a civilian cost and increases the urgency of Carl's response.
Relationships
Town Guards — The immune defenders remain active while ursine residents shelter.
Poison Cloud Attack — The spreading gas forces them out of the open.
