Designed for the Weekly Community Homebrew Challenge on 29/06/26.

The Bearkin Sweettooth is part of a honey-craving society of bears that steal honey from other communities. They believe they are the only ones worthy of honoring honey and therefore must procure every jar of it. Bearkin go as far as to use old honey jars as clothing or equipment. They even share this valuable resource among themselves to empower their honey-keepers, who defend their stores.

Actions
