desc: "`pf2:1` **Requirements** The bear's last action was a success with a Strike that lists Grab in its damage entry, or it has a creature grabbed using this action.\n* * *\n\n**Effect** The bear automatically Grabs the target until the end of the bear's next turn. The creature is [[Conditions/Grabbed|Grabbed]] by whichever body part the bear attacked with, and that body part can't be used to Strike creatures until the grab is ended. Using Grab extends the duration of the monster's Grab until the end of its next turn for all creatures grabbed by it. A grabbed creature can use the [[Actions/Escape|Escape]] action to get out of the grab, and the Grab ends for a grabbed creatures if the bear moves away from it."
name: Polar Bear
creatures:
- 1: Polar BearPolar bears are known for their pale fur, with black eyes, lips, and toe pads. They are aggressively predatory creatures, stalking prey for miles on land or across the icy waters of frozen oceans. They are also amazing ambush predators, leaping from the water to ambush seals resting on ice floes. If they are desperate, polar bears hunt not only other animals but also humanoids.
