”Not gonna lie, I'm only here because WoW is patching.”
Hibernation time, baby.
WereBear, of the HFS kingdom of Bhurtok
Also active at Mourningwood Glen in Amtgard's Emerald Hills
Biography
WereBear started his stickjock career playing HFS in Austin, Texas at the kingdom of Barad-Duin in 1999. It was there that WereBear got his first taste of Amtgard through frequent kingdom raids by the Torches, who destroyed his newbie notion that all skilled fighters were assholes; as many of the Torches magnanimously taught their skills to anyone who would listen.
Eventually Barad-Duin become a less-than-fun park, and WereBear began driving down to the HFS kingdom of Shadowmist in San Antonio, Texas. Shadowmist offered a small group of very jovial and talented people, though only a small handful of the populous cared about developing their fighting prowess. To get his "stick fix", WereBear began attending Torch fighter practice (Tori-Mar) on Wednesday nights every once in a while.
WereBear now plays in the Amtgard kingdom of Mourningwood Glen in Arlington, Texas where he is an Electrical Engineering college student. However, if "home is where the heart is" then WereBear is a loyal member of the HFS, hailing from the kingdom of Bhurtok in Dallas, Texas. WereBear enjoys a wide array of fighting systems, and is always game for trying out new/different LARPs.
Origin of "WereBear"
"WereBear" was a nickname from old Barad-Duin, referencing WereBear's size and appearance. This nickname is often shortened to just "Bear."
WereBear also "hibernates" with near-fanatical zeal, and can sleep in almost any environmental at the drop of a hat. Wake the WereBear at your own risk.
