Lonestar Jacques Bear

General Information
Lonestar Jacques Bear was born and raised in Bearland, Four Islands, Jupiter. He is a well-known and controversial public figure, best known for his ascendancy to the Bearland presidency, and his continued presence in Jupiterian society as a businessbear, entrepreneur, actor, war veteran, police officer, former collegiate football player at Bearland University and his alleged involvement with organized crime syndicates.

Background and Early Life
He was raised by his father, Lonestar "Pop" Bear, after his mother was killed during the gruesome Forest Hunt offensive during the Second Hunter-Henexian War. His paternal line contains a regressive hereditary condition that often halves the growth ceiling of its offspring. Thus, Lonestar stands at roughly half the stature of his father and his son, Bonestar, is roughly half his size. Lonestar and his fraternal twin brother, Santa's Little Helper, were identified early by a Henexian teacher as being carriers of powers and both learned to cultivate them as they grew up.

Family, Friends and Enemies
Lonestar, often known to family and friends (and at least one enemy) as simply "Bear" or "Hoy," counts among his immediate family a brother, Santa's Little Helper, and a son, Bonestar Jacques Bear. Contrary to popular belief, Bonestar does not have a mother, as he is actually the result of Lonestar's participation in a Henexian genetic experiment.

Lonestar is close friends with Barney Raccoon and Hippy H. Hippo. Lonestar and Barney met while the bear briefly attended the Coon House Nursery School and was one of the only witnesses to The Chute Incident that resulted in one of Barney's femurs being replaced with a titanium rod. Lonestar has admitted on several occasions that he feels immense guilt for not recognizing that Barney was heading toward the chute. His friendship with Hippy stretches back to their early schooling, having met in 12th grade calculus.

As a prominent and controversial public figure, Lonestar has attracted his share of enemies. Slick Bear, who bears a striking resemblance to Lonestar's deceased friend Smokey, defeated him in the Bearland presidential election and is said to harbor an "extreme mistrust and loathing" toward his opponent [citation needed]. Also among Lonestar's enemies is popular Bearland rabbit Michael Buster, who holds a borderline paranoid antagonistic mania towards him. He's really fun though, so they keep him around. Buster's close friends suggest that his characteristic torso buckling while speaking has to do with an stomach ulcer induced by the frustration of seeing Lonestar's continual and baffling success.
