2024 Character Creation Challenge: Honey Heist

Grant Howitt made a lot of free interesting one page RPG. Honey Heist is probably the most famous.

You play a bear to carry on out the biggest honey heist at the Honeycon. Chaos and comedy ensue. There are only 2 stat: Bear & Criminal, which both start at 3. Bear is for doing bear stuff, and Criminal is for doing others. Doing well or worse will shift the stat into another. 6 points in criminal means the character betraying the party, living out a life of crime for the rest of their days. 6 points in bear result in the bear going completely feral, hulking out and losing control of your character.

My bear is a slick sun bear thief who can sense honey. That's the full extent of my character.

I use the adventure generator to generate the adventure premise:

The Honeycon takes place in a dangerous fishing village. There's ultra dense mega honey from posh bees in addition to the heist target. The honey is stored in "invincible" vault and there's poison gas to look out for. The Honeycon organizer is clueless and exploitable, but little as the bears know, there's a rival team of bear.
