Bugbear

Bugbears have the following racial traits:

• +4 Strength, +2 Dexterity, +2 Constitution, -2 Charisma. Strong, fast, and tough, bugbears seem to be built for combat, but they are crude and coarse.
• Medium sized: Bugbears have no special bonuses or penalties due to their size.
• Bugbear land speed is 30 ft.
• Darkvision 60 feet.
• +3 natural armor.
• Proficient with all simple weapons and the goblin stick (Races of Faerun, pp. 154). Proficient with light armor and shields.
• Humanoid Hit Dice: A bugbear had 3d8 racial Hit Dice. A bugbear character receives the maximum hit points for his first humanoid Hit Die and rolls his other humanoid Hit Dice normally. He rolls all Hit Dice from class levels and does not automatically get maximum hit points on his first class-level Hit Die. A bugbear’s racial Hit Dice also provide a +2 base attack bonus and saving throw of Fort +1, Ref +3, and Will +1. Bugbears with class levels add their class attack bonus and save bonuses to their racial attack bonuses and saves.
• Humanoid Skills: A bugbear’s humanoid Hit Dice grant him skill points equal to (2 + Int modifier, minimum 1) x6. Class skills for these skill points are Climb, Hide, Listen, Move Silently, and Spot. A bugbear does not get the x4 multiplier for skill points acquired from first class level.
• Humanoid Feats: A typical bugbear’s humanoid Hit Dice grant him two feats. A typical bugbear chooses Alertness and Weapon Focus (morningstar). A bugbear with class levels gains feats based on his total Hit Dice, as shown on Table 2 in the Introduction (Races of Faerun, p. 7).
• Favored Class: Rogue.
• Level Adjustment: +1. Due to his racial Hit Dice and physical ability bonuses, a bugbear has an effective character level of 4 plus his class levels. Thus, a 3rd-level bugbear rogue would have an ECL of 7.
