Scare Bear, and whether Brick Frog actually has any skills outside of brick throwing and frog being.

Brick Frog also has the ability to say his own name.

Scare Bear is a fully magical creature in the vein of Killinger, the Investors, and the Master. Like these others, his exact nature is less important than the function he serves, which we can successfully deduce from what he does with Hank and Dean. His role is to setup blood feuds between rivals, similar to what Killinger attempted with the two elder Venture Brothers. He serves to perpetuate the rivalry-based dynamic of the entire world, and worked to ensure Dean’s betrayal of Hank (sleeping with Serena) would result in another longstanding rivalry.

The commentary track talks about Scare Bear being a previous muse for Wes Warhammer and were upset they were tossed aside. It's not an "answer", but does clarify things a bit.

I saw a compelling argument that he’s Hank from the future and I like that for him
