Appearance

In build S-Bear mirrors a childhood Kuma, though his hair is longer and his clothing echoes the present-day Kuma, the jacket marked with an emblem associated with Vegapunk's creations. Lunarian ancestry surfaces in his brown skin, white hair and ears, and the black wings on his back.

Personality

S-Bear has revealed no temperament apart from obedience. He answers to whoever carries a Pacifista authority chip and does nothing more.

Abilities

Vegapunk hailed the Seraphim as the summit of his research, a creation he labeled the "Strongest Form of Humanity." Cloned from Kuma, S-Bear inherits through his Lineage Factor the immense power and tough frame of the Buccaneer race, a people rumored to carry giant's blood. His Pacifista construction lets him fire lasers from his mouth and palms, while his Lunarian nature gives him back-flames bound to extraordinary resilience, enough to endure repeated assault from a Gear 4 Luffy and a man-beast Rob Lucci. By way of the Green Blood he possesses an artificial Nikyu Nikyu no Mi, a Paramecia fruit granting paw pads that forcefully repel whatever they touch, the very air included. He further commands both Observation and Armament Haki.

During the Egghead Arc, CP0 agents tasked with returning him to the island instead used his repelling power to slip onto Egghead and pursue Vegapunk's assassination. Ordered by Kaku to strike a fellow Seraphim, S-Bear was redirected by Sentomaru to blast the government agents with lasers, and he loosed an Ursus Shock on the invaders. Once Sentomaru died, the four Seraphim fell under CP0's command and battered Vegapunk's laboratory until Edison ordered them to stop. Later S-Bear and S-Hawk turned on the unconscious Kaku and Lucci, drawing Zoro and Luffy in; he unleashed another Ursus Shock before Luffy and Lucci sent him flying, yet he kept recovering without fail. He was eventually sealed in a seastone bubble in the basement, fell to the Fabiriophase when Nusjuro cut the cloud, was swallowed and spat out by Shepherd Ju Peter, and after the incident was recharged and shipped off by the Marines.
