      "{@creature Owlbear||Owlbears} might well have inspired the phrase \"dangerously cute.\" They're ferocious predators with sharp beaks, nasty claws, and a quick temper. Their lairs smell like rotting meat. They're famously aggressive and they enjoy sleeping on the bones of their devoured prey.",
      "Despite all that, you'd be hard-pressed to find an adventurer who doesn't harbor a soft spot for these mysterious creatures. Perhaps it's those downy feathers that look like they'd be oh-so-soft to touch. Maybe it's the idea of dozing off beside one, fingers sinking into their warm coat. Possibly it's the hope of raising one to be a loyal companion, friendly and fierce in equal measure. (Note: Doing so may result in losing a finger or three, so consider yourself warned.)",
      "Whatever the magic behind their appeal, there are few adventurers who would turn down an owlbear of their own, especially one that's safe to snuggle with. This pattern delivers all the cuteness with none of the biting."
