Golden Bear Characters
Udarah
The Entity of the Golden Bear Empire and Mother to All Men. Udarah is a fierce protector and maternal figure for the citizens of Dorulu. She grants her Paragon use of her great strength as well as her connection to all land-dwelling animals. Those who threaten her lands will be met with the mighty roar of the large family, loyal to their bonds, that she fiercely protects.
Sorin Tenovah
The first Paragon of Udarah, his family was marked to be the vessels for the boldened golden bear spirit. He uses the connection to his entity to strengthen bonds and forge a new path for Dorulu with his word, and more often, his sword.
Senya Tenovah
The Queen who was never meant to be, and the final Paragon of Udarah before The Great Fall. an incredibly skilled and perceptive huntress. Senya wasn’t born directly in line to inherit the throne of the Golden Bear Empire, and with it, its entity Udarah. While she never had any intention of leading an empire, fate had other plans. Though she only reigned as Paragon for less than three years, she quickly earned the people’s trust and proved her nay-sayers wrong. Throughout history, few Paragons had the connection to animals that she possessed. It’s said that when she was in need, animals would come from miles around to fight by her side.
“When respected, nature can empower. However, when disrespected, it will destroy.”
Jaiten Bronzeclaw
A disgraced Captain from the renowned Bronzeclaw family. His family has led countless Golden Bear Battalions, and are tasked with training the cubs and honing them into grizzly warriors. While the Bronzeclaws have been the right hand of the Tenovahs for centuries, blatantly rejecting orders has its consequences. Especially when it results in lost land for the Golden Bear Empire. This Warbear chose his personal morals over the future of his Empire, and thus, he paid the consequences. Disowned and discharged, this Bronzeclaw seeks redemption over all else.
“I am Jaiten Bronzeclaw of the Bronzeclaw Clan, and by my name, you will not see another day.”
Illiana Solaris
Illiana Solaris has no loyalties. As a former member of the Golden Bears Army, Illiana was a strong servant to her Empire. Now, after experiencing a great loss, she’s willing to do whatever it takes to solve the greatest mystery, no matter who she needs to join. Iliana may not be the smartest in the group, but when in a pinch, her skills as a sharp shooter and way with words get her far. She wears multiple colors in her clothing, representing the people of all Empires and factions who have helped her along the way. While she may not have any loyalties to a single Empire, she’ll always stop to help a friend in need… especially if she can cause a little chaos in the process!
“I am a mosaic of everyone who got me here… For them, I refuse to fail now!”
Pitfighter
A fighter through and through. She needs no sword or spear to show her indomitable prowess in the fighting arena. The Pitfighter embodies the true strength of a wild bear as she tears apart her foes. Those who are bold enough to meet her fists tend to meet their end. During the siege of Densguard, a group of Pitfighters were able to halt the Crimson Wolf advance to sack the city just using their unusual fighting style and creativity.
“Whether we’re fighting in your arena or mine, it makes no difference to me. The outcome will be the same. Now raise your weapon!”
Softpaw Vanguard
You’d best make sure that rustling in the forest was just a rabbit, as these rangers are trained in using the trees to their advantage and ensuring they claim their kill before their target even realizes they’re being watched. Someone has to protect the forests of Dorulu, and for this group, that is their sacred oath. They have learned to become one with the wildlife in the forest and use it to their advantage, so even if it was a rabbit you saw earlier, don’t be so sure that means you're safe.
“Some people try to fight nature. A true hunter knows its strength.”
Seeker Cub
These cubs may be young, but they are skilled tacticians. The seeker cub acts as support for their family. Though they’re not always on the front lines, they are imperative in refortifying the nerve of the champions on the battlefield with their wit and skills with a cooking pot. They say that if you harm a Seeker Cub, it’ll only be a matter of time before a Warbear’s sword finds your neck.
“There’s not much a good stew can’t fix!”
War Bear
These armored war bears are beasts of peace, trained for the grizzliest of battles. However, if their family is threatened, they show no hesitation in tearing apart their enemies, fiercely and without restraint. Loyal to the end. For centuries, these beasts have been a staple of the Golden Bear military and have even won battles even when there were no Golden Bear Warriors left standing. Though no Golden Bear would admit it, some Emperians believe that the reason the Golden Bears have been able to accumulate so much land is in large part thanks to these powerful beasts.
“This should be an easy victory as long as they don’t bring those damn bears…”
