Ursus was a former soldier, he fought in different wars for Kingdoms that never appreciated his services. At some point, he got tired of fighting wars that only benefitted the people in charge, why risk his life for those that he does not even know and receive no benefit from? Tired of the ungrateful civilizations he fought to protect, the old druid took to the forests, learning the ways of nature and in time, learning to be one with it.

While living in the forests, he began admiring the "bestial" nature of the animals in the forest and the way they hunted. After learning Wild Shape, he took the name Ursus and he would spend most of his time in beast form, specially his preferred form of Polar Bear, an animal he saw and learned about during his travels in the North. He would hunt down those that would destroy the forests.

Ursus earned some infamy but few people knew what he looked like since he was using Wild Shape most of the time. He lived deep within the forest in a placed that was surrounded by two Oak threes, each with their own Dryad, and both under his protection. Despite not being part of the Shadow Druids, he agreed with them and sometimes helped them. He would avoid the cities but any who tried to expand their "civilization" into the forests would be hunted down and would face his wrath. He did not care about what happened to cities and their people, only about what happened to the beast of Nature.
