If not already answered, what type of real-life bear would Shadrach's Bear form look most like?
Shad’s bear form most closely resembles an American brown bear (or “Grizzly” bear as they’re usually known in the States). His bear just has olive-colored eyes and is more honey-blond in color that light or dark brown.

(TAKE THIS TEST for your muse)
AMBITION
You have a strong sense of potential and an intense drive to accomplish difficult things. The core of this is your ability to hold together the big goals and the daily efforts. Where other people’s hopes collapse when they encounter the tedium of the journey, you keep coming back. Oddly, it is actually your ability to endure feeling unheroic that counts. You know the power of working away solidly on what’s in front of you.
PLAYFULNESS
You are good at seeing what’s funny, at relaxing and finding the pleasure of the moment. Play is random, whimsical, fantasy-driven behaviour which releases internal tension. Because it is detached from some pressures it allows you to act on weirder, perhaps neglected, parts of yourself. The downside is that it is no help in sticking with things that are not much fun but which need to be addressed. So it is well complemented by its opposite, Stoicism.
RESILIENCE
You have a tendency, after a setback, to turn your emotions towards restriving. What attracts you is the idea of wiping out a humiliation by resumed action – overcoming weakness, repressing your fear. Because part of your motive is pride, you can sometimes be unwilling to admit weakness or to receive aid. But at heart, your insistence on coming back and never folding has taught you a valuable pessimism: you know that important journeys are never easy.
WHAT’S YOUR ALIGNMENT?
YOU GOT: Chaotic Neutral
You follow your own rules, often in direct contradiction to the law of the land. You’re not beholden to traditions, and you believe strongly in freedom, regardless of how it is obtained.
Do you think your parents are/would be proud of you?
Shadrach shrugged, looking away from the mage as he did.
"Figure m'ma would be," he said with a faint smile. "She was always proud'a m'no matter what I did. Never met m'pa, though. Can't say for sure what he'd think."
He shrugged again, and ran a hand through his hair.
"Like to think they'd be proud'a m'though."
What is your relation to the beast? Do you embrace your beast-form or do you fight against it?
[Prompt]
"Relation is still a bit... shaky, I suppose," Shad admitted with a small shrug. "Tryin' to get to know it better 'n all. Figure out how it thinks 'n acts 'n whatnot." A small frown tugged at the corners of his mouth.
"Fought against it at first, then tried to embrace it as little as I could," he said, "that didn't lead to anythin' good happenin', so now m'tryin' to figure it out more. Embrace it more 'n give it a little more freedom so the two of us can work thin's out proper."
1. How often do you change? 2. How do you feel after a transformation? 3. How do you feel during a transformation?
[Prompt]
"Only change as often I need," Shad began, frowning slightly. "Don’t try to force any changes, ‘n I usually don’t try to stop any changes so lon’s m’away from the city." His brows furrowed at the following questions and he had to think a bit before replying.
"After a transformation, I usually feel tired. I sleep, mostly. One’a the only times I get to sleep where there ain’t no nightmares," he said with a huff that might have been an attempt at a laugh. "Durin’ though… durin’ I feel…" Shad trailed off, his brows furrowing deeply.
"I… don’t know?" The reply was weak, but honest. "I usually don’t remember none of what happened. Just wake up covered in mud ‘n blood. Arlow said that the better I get used to the Bear, though, the better handle I’ll have over it later on - even durin’ the transformations.”
What would you do if you found out there was a cure for your bear-blood?
[Prompt]
"I'd get cured," he replied with no hesitation, looking at the mage as if they were dense.
