Halsin's Cave Bear Wild Shape

Halsin should be a bear!

But it feels wrong to use bear when owlbear felt like a straight up better version of normal bear...

This upgrade's the Halsin-only Cave Bear to be almost on par with vanilla owlbear. :)

List of Changes:

- Claw and Multiattacks now properly scale with bonus dice with level up like the rest of wild shapes.

- Multiattack recast is now once per turn, instead of per combat.

- Damage increased from 1d6 to 1d8 for both attack formulas.

- Added Goading Roar ability as a Bonus Action at level 4.

- Added Brutal Leap at level 6.

A jump similar to owlbear's with a chance to knock prone targets in a small AoE, but no damage. Be careful, you can knock out friendlies!

- Ability points scale with level.

They actually start lower than vanilla until about level 6, then raise higher on future level ups.

Offsets the higher attack damage during lower levels somewhat, tho idk whos getting Halsin before lv6 anyways.

- Physical size scales with level, no affect on stats, but baby bear doesn't look that scary?

Disclaimer: I take no responsibility for consequences of enlarging Halsin's bear form on your Tav's life choices. You knew what you were signing up for! Can't say he didn't warn you~

- AC benefits from both DEX and CON, like a built in Unarmored Defense.

- Proficiency bonus on Survival skill checks. Because why not?

- Can use as a ritual outside of combat without expending a Wild Shape charge.

Starting Stats: STR 16, DEX 10, CON 16

Level 4: +2 STR

Level 6: +2 STR

Level 8: +2 DEX

Level 10: +2 CON

Level 12: +2 STR

Final Stats: STR 22, DEX 12, CON 18

Compatibility?

Compatible with anything that doesn't specifically edit Halsin's bear form.

I'm using Druid Wild Shape Overhaul and they work fine together since it modifies player WS forms and not Halsin's specific, but I still get the shared benefits like better healing and who knows what else I haven't noticed.

Known Issues

Not sure if it's just a me thing or a bug, but I cannot get Goading Roar on the default hotbar for the life of me.

You can still get to it by going to the Bonus Action tab of the hotbar. If it doesn't show there, switch characters then check again.

IDK, if anyone knows why this happens lemme know, cause I'm out of ideas!
