Creation Notes: I read through the Fantasy Companion Race Creation guide when creating Tenderheart bear. I chose to give him the Hindrance Small and Arcane Background (Miracles) as Racial traits for the Care Bear Race. I fudged it a little and gave him an extra Edge.

I like this char. I have one question though. Do you think that since the care bear only has one "Spell" Arcane background(super power) would be better.
Arcane background(Miracles) Gives the bear a more "saintly" type feel to it. But AB (Miracles) also gives two starting powers. AB (superpower) Just has one starting power but more power points.
Well, I think the "source" of the power makes more sense as miracles.
I know the mechanics are a little off—but you'll notice that that's the case for most of the characters I have posted here.
The miracles description says about miracles that their powers are derived from a divine presence of some source including gods, nature, or spirits.
I see the Care Bears drawing their power from the Nature of Caring/Love.
It also specifies that their power is usually invoked with a few words of prayer or by performing established rituals.
I know for me it's been a very long time since I watched any Care Bear cartoon/movie. What I do recall is that the Care Bear Stare always seemed to be used as a last ditch cooperative effort, ritually performed by them all standing together and using their power combined when the leader commanded it to be. Individually, the power was generally too weak.
I hope that explains why I did it the way I did. Superpowers was second on the list, I went back and forth between it and miracles the entire time I was writing this up...
I understand these characters a little better now that I've written up a few of my own. It was all nonsense to me before.
