My first DM had this bad habit of using Care Bears as monsters, and they were not cute. What do you think?

It's small? I assume you're not using an actual carebear against 28mm models then?

good grief.

I'd say have some low, medium and high level care bears. You should have a list of stare abilities, a menu, for each level. Disintegrate is higher-end. charm person and/or dominate is a must for most of them. Scorching ray, lightning bolt, whatever. The unicorn and gramma bear should be 20 HD avatars.

in fact, a feat tree for special maneuvers wouldn't be bad: bull rush with stare, reduce person, whatever.

But yeah, stagger the CR so you can have minions and leaders; that way lower level PCs can meet them.
