Character[]
Background[]
Kuma is a monster whose instincts led him to Monster High, like Clawdeen Wolf, but he was mistaken for a random bear terrorizing the school, and was attacked by the other monsters as a result. Clawdeen realized he wasn't a regular bear because he threw rocks to defend himself, and then calmed him down by tickling him. Since then, he became a student at Monster High.
Personality[]
Kuma may be a giant bear monster, but inside he’s as cuddly as a teddy bear. He’s an Onikuma, so, when he feels threatened, he defends himself by throwing rocks. The only way to stop him is to tickle him.
Kuma is adjusting to the customs and culture of Monster High and since his arrival, has learned how to speak English.
Appearance[]
Kuma resembles a regular brown bear, the only significant difference being that he's a anthropomorphic bear.
Relationships[]
Family[]
He has an unnamed mother and grandmother.
