Bearhug is a combat maneuver that immobilizes a target and does minor damage each round that the bearhug is successfully maintained.

Damage ranges between 25-35 health points per round for up to five rounds. Each round the warrior must roll above 100 to maintain the bearhug.

The warrior nor the target can stance down while a bearhug is engaged. This can be dangerous for the warrior in certain situations.

Hands do not have to be empty to be able to use the bearhug combat maneuver, but supposedly having empty hands helps with the attack.

Wall of Thorns (640) does not offensively engage against a bearhug.
