Owlbears are tenacious hunters that might track prey over miles and rarely give up their hunts.
## Owlbears
*Magically Perfected Predators*
- **Habitat.** Forest
- **Treasure.** None
Created long ago by misguided mages, owlbears combine keen avian eyes, thick feathers, and a tearing beak with a mighty bearlike frame. Despite their magical origins, owlbears have propagated and spread to wildernesses across the multiverse.
Owlbears dwell in distinctive dens. Roll on or choose a result from the Owlbear Den Features table to inspire an owlbear den's noteworthy traits.
