'''Owlbears''' are a type of [[List_of_Creature_Types#Beast|Beast]] [[List of Creature Types|creature]] found in [[Owlbear Nest]] in [[Act One]] as an optional boss fight. Resembling large feathered bears with the head of an owl, they are quick to anger, extremely strong and seemingly constantly hungry. While highly territorial, its recent injury from the [[Cult of the Absolute]] has left it notably weakened.

However, because of the Owlbear's injury, it is far easier to sneak up on it as it has [[Disadvantage]] on [[Perception]]. A more direct approach can use [[Andrick]] and [[Brynna]] to help in the fight if convinced, who, acting as soft targets, can be useful distractions and support. Spells, items or weapon abilities that require a [[Dexterity]] [[Saving Throw]] like [[Grease]], [[Grease Bottle]] or [[Topple (Weapon Action)|Topple]] are quite effective in slowing it down. When it is enraged, it is best to finish the fight quickly before its multiattack shreds through the group.
