The Bear!

If you're looking for the flavor text for this event, see The Bear! (flavor text).

The Bear! can reached from waking the Sleeping Beast Inside The Cave, from waking the Sleeping Bear, from being targeted with the Bear in a Filled Pocket Ball (with a ? Round delayed queued), from being the target in The Bear Is Loose! Fixed Chance Phase event (with a 2-4 Round delayed queue), or from being targeted in a The Bear! subevent (with a 2-5 Round delayed queued). It cannot simply be a random event.

In the event, you can choose to run away or use an item or skill against the Bear.

Unless an option is chosen where the Bear is killed, or an option is chosen where the player can directly choose a player to send the Bear after or a direction to send the Bear, the Bear will randomly choose a direction to go in, and if any other players are in that direction (with the space where the player in the event is as the start), a random other player in that direction is chosen for which The Bear! is queued. The same occurs in the specified direction for subevents where the player can choose the direction the Bear goes.

If the player would move backward "the standard amount of spaces" (20-30 spaces) from an option in The Bear!, they only move 25% of the spaces if they have the Bear Behavior feat. Bear Behavior can also have other effects on options, like with the Whip, though these are largely untested.

If the player is a Druid currently in Bear Form when the event would begin, it is replaced by (Event Name Unknown), in which you receive the Skip A Turn status, and the event ends without any of the below options available.
