Background/Personality: Bruce W. Bear saw his parents murdered when he was just a child. Realizing that firebugs are a superstitious and cowardly lot, he chose to avenge his family’s death by fighting forest fires while wearing the costume of a human forest ranger. For years, he’d wear his hat, and ravage the careless humans that started fires in his forest. All the while, he started publicizing his famous advertising campaign warning against the dangers of forest fires, and placing the responsibility on those who visit the forests.
Only you. That’s what he tells the public, anyway. In fact, Smokey himself has prevented over thirty fires in the last ten years, and has avenged himself upon the perpetrators of those fires that he was not on hand to stop personally.
Smokey never found the man that caused the original fire that killed his parents. In lieu of true justice and closure, he makes all other firebugs pay the penalty for that crime.
Quote: “Only you can prevent forest fires. Now pour water on that campfire before I smother it with your face.”
Tactics/Powers: Smokey is a large barrel-chested bear. He stands eight feet tall, and has tremendous strength. His powerful claws could maul an unarmored man to death in a matter of a few seconds, if Smokey was of a mind to do so. Being a bear, Smokey can move through natural forest environments without being slowed by the underbrush and other impediments.
His firefighter training allows him to hold his breath in smoke for long periods of time. He has also learned human first aid techniques, and even sports a license for what he does.
Roleplaying Notes: Michael Clark Duncan meets Clancy Brown.
