     \paragraph*{Volt} When Drub attacks, they may spend up to \stat{DEX} successes to move after the attack (\SI{1}{\meter} per success), instead of doing damage. If they do, remove at least that many dice from their dice pool -- dice removed as failures are included in this number.

+    \subsection*{Horned Bear}
+    \itshape
+    Horned bears are, as a rule, solitary creatures. They do not attack unless provoked, although stories of what has provoked a horned bear range from owning a sheep the bear wants to eat, to laughing too loudly in the forest where the bear resides.
+
+    Their pelts are prized for their softness and density of fur. They are, however, in no danger of being over-hunted, as few hunters are willing to go up against half a ton of angered bear. There have been reports of a horned bear charging a horse and throwing it 10 meters into the air, along with its rider. When cornered, the bear, instead, uses its claws that are said to be able to kill an aurochs in a single swipe.
+
+    It might not be much comfort to anyone being charged by a horned bear, but the protrusions on its head are not, in fact, true horns. Rather, they are antlers that the bear sheds every winter, before entering hibernation. Note that a hibernating horned bear is not much less dangerous than one that is awake. Many an adventurer has wandered into a bear cave, hoping to get an easy horned bear pelt off the sleeping beast. Instead, the bear wakes up and does exactly what one would expect a bear who had just been forced awake to do.

+    \paragraph*{Juggernaut} Horned bear rolls a \stat{DT}~$6-\stat{stb}$ test. On success, horned bear moves the margin of success meters in a straight line.
+
+    While moving, the horned bear is immune to Trip and has +1 \stat{AC} to any attacks.
+
+    Any characters horned bear moves through must succeed a \stat{DC}~$6-\stat{stb}$ test by a margin larger than the distance already traveled, or be knocked \textbf{\sffamily prone}.
+
+    \paragraph*{Toss} Horned bear rolls a test with \stat{DT}~$6-\stat{str}$ opposed by a \stat{DT}~$6-\stat{str}$ or $6-\stat{dex}$ test from the target. On a win, the target is moved up to the difference in margins, reduced by the target's \stat{STB}, meters away from the attacker.
+
+    \paragraph*{Hard Strike} Horned bear chooses a number up to \stat{STR} and roll for an attack. On success, add the chosen number to the margin. Horned bear removes at least twice as many dice from the pool (this includes the failure dice that would be removed anyway.)
