Klar

<h2>Description</h2>
<p data-rte-fromparser="true">The klar looks much like a large kodiak bear with a head that seems a little too large for the body. Its back is covered with a chitinous plate It has a thick, stump of a tail that aids its bal- ance when it stands erect.
<!-- RTE::{"spaces":0,"type":"LINE_BREAK"} -->The klar is large, towering over most Athasian fauna when standing fully erect. Its thick, sandy-colored fur grows as much as six inches long. The klar moves about on all four massive paws Its long arms reach the ground when erect.
<!-- RTE::{"spaces":0,"type":"LINE_BREAK"} -->Klars communicate with each other through loud growls, though they use their psionics when they wish to be silent or contact each other over great distances.

<h2 data-rte-empty-lines-before="1">Behavior</h2>
<p data-rte-fromparser="true">They have never at- tempted to speak with humans or demihumans, assuming them to be too stupid to understand a klar. The few who have bothered to investigate the town of Salt View are beginning to change their views about the humans and their kind. Several psionicists have contacted klar and were able to communicate before being ripped to shreds.

<h2 data-rte-empty-lines-before="1">Combat</h2>
<p data-rte-fromparser="true">The klar is fond of playing with its food, so it often releases its victim after a single crush and tries again. A klar that is losing its battle maintains its hold until it or the victim is dead.
</p>
<h2>Ecology</h2>
<p data-rte-fromparser="true">The klar is not particularly ter- ritorial. It is confident enough to know it can find a home anywhere in the mountains by killing other cave-dwellers. In the first several years of a klars life, its intense psionic potential tends to overpower its young, untrained mind. An adolescent klar occasionally annihilates its own brain. As a result, the klar grow particularly fierce when trespassers invade while the young are maturing. The klar fears that moving the den will upset the youth.
