| Jul 25, 2022 at 16:38 | comment | added | Seph Steel | The character in question almost certainly isn't, but pick up a Swordmage multiclass feat and then the Acolyte Power feat to swap one of your Druid utility powers for the Swordmage Giant's Might power (which doesn't have the polymorph keyword, so can stack with Wild Shape) and you can be a Large Owlbear, at least for one fight a day. | |
| Jul 23, 2022 at 2:05 | comment | added | Peter Cordes | Using a Medium Owlbear works for the question as written, but the Owlbear in the movie trailer was at least as large as a horse, well into the Large size category. So you couldn't replicate that visual. As for bowling over and ragdolling + throwing a Human, mechanically in D&D that just comes down to Str / Athletics checks, or flavouring a bite or claw attack, I guess. | |
