Maybe double the Dire bear's 12 HD ?Giving it 24 Hit Dice would allow it to have Epic Feats.I would give it cold resistance rather than the Cold subtype, so (a) it isn't vulnerable to fire and (b) the text makes no mention of it being immune to cold, it just says "fantastic endurance).Then I'd let it have some supernatural or spell-like powers. Maybe control weather 1/day (can only be used to create frigid cold or blizzards).Maybe Rejuvenation for that "you think you've killed it, but it'll come back again" trick?I'm sure we can come up with a few more ideas later.Oh, and a bear with 30 cm claws probably weighs a lot more than 1200 kg - it could easily weigh 25,000 pounds.</blockquote>
