[Knowledge:nature untrained; unusable]<br/>Chrrou is just starting to shift and stretch in preparation to wake up when the near-deafening noise pierces his restful lull. [Will save: 1d20(19)+14=33; DC 20; pass] [Initiative: 1d20(17)+0=17] Immediately he scrambles to his feet, paws to his ears, not bothering to grab his pack as he does his best to disentangle himself from the blanket. [Heshaar Will save: 1d20(12)+3=15; DC 20; fail] When Heshaar will not rise, his shock and confusion turns to fear and he prepares for the worst, crouching and focusing; opposite the rising white explosion of snow comes an explosion of white fur as from the meek smallness of the mousefolk's body a massive and muscled polar-bear bursts forth, spreading its paws to take a steady stance upon the snow near the flames and roaring in opposition.<br/><br/>The bear is fully fifty times as massive as the mousefolk was, but still stands pitifully small by comparison to the foe; his roar cannot be heard amid the stunning shriek.
