Considering Horace's original design was based directly from the werewolves in Age of Conan, which themselves were dericed from The Woldman-era of werewolves, it wasn't a huge step to adapt my big, furry blue fuzzball into a Bugbear.
That being said, Horace pulls it off remarkably well! If anyone happened to know how to mod this oversized racoon into BG3, I would not say no!
