TRP is a post-Great War AU RWBY RP set in Mistral City and Haven Academy with no canons, no rank claims, no maidens, and no god interference. We offer a progression system and site-wide events that change the setting based on player actions.
Ursai have the black fur and bony spikes on their backs and arms, as well as white, bone-like masks with red detailing that are characteristic for most forms of Grimm. They take on the physical appearance of bears, and have the strength and weight of bears as well.
There are also larger Ursai in the world, known as Ursa Majors, and one was seen living in the Forever Fall forest. Like its smaller counterpart, it has bony spines and a skull mask with Grimm markings, but also possesses many bony plates on its back and limbs.
Behavior:
Ursai seem to prefer attacking in pairs, suggesting ties of pack or familial origins when hunting prey. While they are more durable than Beowolves, there is a weak spot on the belly of each Ursai that should be the target of any individual finding themselves in a fight with one. They are also rather slow, and able to be outrun if that's more your style.
Ursa Majors, however, are much larger and stronger. They are even more heavily armored than their smaller counterparts. While they still have the weak spot under their belly that is unprotected, the natural toughness of the Ursa Major shines through even in these instances if the attack is not powerful enough. While they are bigger and stronger, they are not significantly faster than the normal Ursai and disengagement is heavily advised for any first year students encountering these creatures.
