Issuing an excited, bugle-like bark, a matted gargantuan Wyrese bear lumbers over to a broad-leafed magnolia tree and rises up on his hind legs, arms above his head. Snorting and whining, he bats at something in the branches until a large beehive drops to the ground with a wet thud. Striped bumblebees surge out of the hive, several swarming at the bear's face, while a larger swarm forms into a buzzing cloud that darts off into the distance.


Swatting the bumblebees away easily, the bear plops onto his behind with his legs splayed before him and paws at the hive until he breaks it into pieces. Turning to you, he issues an inviting, high-pitched roar before consuming most of the empty hive, leaving a dark golden honeycomb behind.

This article is a work in progress!

Bear mounts were released at Rumor Woods in 2025 as the seventh installment of available mounts. Bear mounts are summoned by a medallion, which are a summoning item that stores their information but is considered a separate item. Similar to horse mounts, there are three tiers: common, uncommon, and rare.

Appearance

Base Bear:
Though much taller when standing upright, the bear is (height) at the shoulders, which are broad and bulky.  His ears are (ears) and his neck is thick.  Dappled in (highlight) highlights along the edges of his (face) face, spine, and hind legs, the bear's fur is (fur adj.) (fur color) and spreads uniformly across the rest of his (body) physique.  His paws are large and powerful, easily supporting his thick legs.

Common

Common mounts are the least expensive option when considering purchase. They are restricted to being just "TBA", and are limited in alteration options that may be allowed through the Ostler.

Available Nouns

  • brown bear

Rare

Rare mounts are the highest tier available for purchase and offer additional verbs unavailable at common or uncommon tiers. Rare mounts are also locked into their feature as the additional verbs are specialized to the design. They are only available during their initial run, and are normally discontinued in concurrent runs. For 2025, the rare bear mount was a Southron brown bear and a Wyrese brown bear.

Appearance

Wyrese Bear
Though much taller when standing upright, the bear is around sixteen hands at the shoulders, which are broad and bulky. His ears are grizzled and his neck is thick. Dappled in dusky marbled highlights along the edges of his scar-lined face, spine, and hind legs, the bear's fur is thicky matted auburn and spreads uniformly across the rest of his gargantuan physique. His paws are large and powerful, easily supporting his thick legs.
