Deed

Defeat 3 Wolf. An Emberwood pack took the band's smoked winter meat. Halla wants them brought down by a bear, so the wolves remember what owns the wood.

What it does

In any bear shape. A 1.2-tile lunge (0.22 s, telegraphed) takes the first S or M foe in your jaws (an L body: one bite of 1.4 of the paw roll, no hold). The jaws hold it 1.2 s (a grapple hold, never stunT or the stun or hold status): 3 bites of 1.0 of the paw roll each (3.0 in all, a fresh HitSpec each), +15 poise and +6 Fury a bite; then an S foe is tossed 1.8 tiles toward your aim (into a wall: it lands Staggered) and an M foe is dropped. The bitten foe is weakened 20 % for 6 s (its blows, the existing weaken status). Foes' blows on you while you bite take +15 %. In the Great Bear and Hundred-Winter Bear: bites x1.3, and M foes are tossed 1.2 tiles too.

Edge: Bone-Crack

4 bites (from 3); the hold lasts 1.5 s.
