Despite the number of industrialized city-states and nations that dot the landscape of the Great Continent, there are still many wild and outlying areas consisting of unexplored and untamed regions inhabited by cultures that hold firm to the traditions and beliefs of their past. Some of these regions are quite vast, populated by proud and powerful people and others are small, inhabited by simple rustic people who are satisfied with their way of life and see no need to change.

The Barbarian is a warrior who is, at his core, a survivalist, and who has tapped into the rugged primal power that infuses the world. He wields overwhelming strength by which he defeats his foes. The barbarian culture may produce any number of different classes but the Barbarian himself is the embodiment of the berserker fury inherent to the primal power of the world.

The iconic Emblem of Ea barbarian will usually hail from one of the outlying frontier areas or culturally exotic places in the world. Human, Orc and Half-Orc barbarians typically emerge from the vast realm of Dran and its regional affiliates. Sith'makar barbarians are are some of their tribes' fiercest warriors. The nation of Dran is well known for its brutal warrior traditions and mercenary armies and they have produced some of the most powerful warriors the world has ever known. To the northwest, the reaches of far-away Stormgarde produce proud warriors of a primal heritage. The enormous Giantborn emerge from both the high north of Stormgarde and the harsh Tablelands of Dran. Legendary Storm Dwarves dwell on high mountain peaks, atop their faithful griffon mounts. Human, dwarf and Jotunbrud Barbarians might emerge from these lands as well. Among the Mountain Dwarves, barbarians sometimes emerge from among their Stonesmasher and Skyhammer clans. An Lucht Siuil barbarians ride the lengths of The Vast as outriders, side by side human barbarians from the Phurai Dae tribes of horse lords and nomads.

Barbarians also often exist among the mercenary thugs, criminals and malcontents that make the depths of The Desolation their home coupled with simple rustic tribes or monstrous races that are simply trying to survive there and exist in solitude.

Bludgun harbors Ogres, Bugbears and other monstrous races well suited towards this mentality and way of fighting. By and large the elves do not take well to this particular brand of training and fighting, the Wild Elves who dwell on the outskirts of the Periantha or who roam the edge of The Vast may produce barbarians of this nature as well. Beyond these well-known lands, other stories of strange and unusual origins of barbarians also rise up in taverns. Stories abound of human children stranded in distant alien lands such as the wilds of Jammur or the jungles of the Jade Islands or the countless mountain domains of The Roof of the World. Here they are saved and raised by sentient wild animals or savage humanoids resulting in another source for Barbarians.

Class Features

Class Features

All of the following are class features of the barbarian.

Weapon and Armor Proficiency: A barbarian is proficient with all simple and martial weapons, light armor, medium armor, and shields (except tower shields).

Fast Movement (Ex): A barbarian's base speed is faster than the norm for her race by 10 feet. This benefit applies only when she is wearing no armor, light armor, or medium armor, and not carrying a heavy load. Apply this bonus before modifying the barbarian's speed because of any load carried or armor worn. This bonus stacks with any other bonuses to the barbarian's base speed.

Rage (Ex): A barbarian can call upon inner reserves of strength and ferocity, granting her additional combat prowess. At 1st level, a barbarian can rage for a number of rounds per day equal to 4 + her Constitution modifier. For each level after 1st she possesses, the barbarian can rage for 2 additional rounds per day. Temporary increases to Constitution, such as that gained from bear's endurance, do not increase the total number of rounds that a barbarian can rage per day. A barbarian can enter a rage as a free action. The total number of rounds of rage per day is renewed after resting for 8 hours, although these hours need not be consecutive.

While in a rage, a barbarian gains a +2 bonus on melee attack rolls, melee damage rolls, thrown weapon damage rolls, and Will saving throws. In addition, she takes a –2 penalty to Armor Class. She also gains 2 temporary hit points per Hit Die. These temporary hit points are lost first when a character takes damage, disappear when the rage ends, and are not replenished if the barbarian enters a rage again within 1 minute of her previous rage. While in a rage, a barbarian cannot use any Charisma-, Dexterity-, or Intelligence-based skill (except Acrobatics, Fly, Intimidate, and Ride) or any ability that requires patience or concentration (such as spellcasting).

A barbarian can end her rage as a free action, and is fatigued for 1 minute after a rage ends. A barbarian can't enter a new rage while fatigued or exhausted, but can otherwise enter a rage multiple times per day. If a barbarian falls unconscious, her rage immediately ends.

Rage Powers (Ex): As a barbarian gains levels, she learns to use her rage in new ways. At 2nd level and every 2 levels thereafter, the barbarian gains a rage power. A barbarian gains the benefits of rage powers only while raging. Some of these powers are always active during a rage, and others require the barbarian to take an action to use them. Unless otherwise noted, a barbarian cannot select an individual power more than once.

Some of the following rage powers are stances. Activating a stance rage power is a move action. A barbarian can't have more than one stance rage power active at a time. If she activates a stance rage power while another one is active, the current stance immediately ends. The stance can be intentionally ended at the beginning of the barbarian's turn as a free action; otherwise, it lasts until the rage ends.

A barbarian may only possess one style of totem rage powers. Totem rage powers grant powers related to a theme. A barbarian cannot select from more than one group of totem rage powers; for example, a barbarian who selects a beast totem rage power cannot later choose to gain any of the dragon totem rage powers (any rage power with “dragon totem” in its title).

Uncanny Dodge (Ex): At 2nd level, a barbarian gains the ability to react to danger before her senses would normally allow her to do so. She cannot be caught flat-footed, nor does she lose her Dexterity bonus to AC if immobilized. A barbarian with this ability can still lose her Dexterity bonus to AC if an opponent successfully uses the feint action against her.

If a barbarian already has uncanny dodge from a different class, she automatically gains improved uncanny dodge (see below) instead.

Danger Sense (Ex): At 3rd level, a barbarian gains a +1 bonus on Reflex saves to avoid traps and a +1 dodge bonus to AC against attacks by traps. In addition, she gains a +1 bonus on Perception checks to avoid being surprised by a foe. These bonuses increase by 1 every 3 levels thereafter (to a maximum of +6 at 18th level). This ability counts as trap sense for any feat or class prerequisite, and can be replaced by any archetype class feature that replaces trap sense. The bonuses gained from this ability stack with those gained from trap sense (if the barbarian has trap sense from another class).

Improved Uncanny Dodge (Ex): At 5th level, a barbarian can no longer be flanked. This defense denies enemies the ability to sneak attack the barbarian by flanking her, unless the attacker has at least 4 more levels in a class that provides sneak attack than the barbarian has barbarian levels.

If the barbarian also has uncanny dodge from another class, levels from the classes that grant uncanny dodge stack to determine the minimum level required to flank the barbarian.

Damage Reduction (Ex): At 7th level, a barbarian gains damage reduction. Each time the barbarian takes damage from a weapon or natural attack, subtract 1 from the damage taken. At 10th level and every 3 levels thereafter, this damage reduction rises by 1 point (up to 5 points at 19th level). Damage Reduction can reduce damage to 0, but not below 0.

Greater Rage (Ex): At 11th level, a barbarian's bonus on melee attack rolls, melee damage rolls, thrown weapon damage rolls, and Will saves while raging increases to +3. In addition, the amount of temporary hit points gained when entering a rage increases to 3 per Hit Die.

Indomitable Will (Ex): At 14th level, the barbarian gains a +4 bonus on Will saves to resist enchantment spells while raging. This bonus stacks with all other modifiers, including the morale bonus on Will saves she gains during her rage.

Tireless Rage (Ex): At 17th level, a barbarian is no longer fatigued at the end of her rage. If she enters a rage again within 1 minute of ending a rage, she doesn't gain any temporary hit points from her rage.

Mighty Rage (Ex): At 20th level, a barbarian's bonus on melee attack rolls, melee damage rolls, thrown weapon damage rolls, and Will saves while raging increases to +4. In addition, the amount of temporary hit points gained when entering a rage increases to 4 per Hit Die.

Larger or smaller creatures used as a bludgeon deal damage based on their size using this base damage. A size Tiny creature deals 1d6 points of damage, a size Medium creature deals 1d10 points of damage, and so on. The barbarian can make a single attack using the pinned opponent as part of the action she uses to maintain the grapple, using her highest attack bonus.

If the pinned opponent is unable to resist being pinned for any reason, the barbarian can use that opponent as an improvised weapon without grappling or pinning the opponent, until the creature is reduced to 0 or fewer hit points, at which point the creature becomes useless as an improvised weapon.	10	--

A barbarian must have the superstition rage power and be at least 10th level to select this rage power.	10	Superstition

She takes no damage from the attack and doesn't attempt a saving throw. Instead, she increases the temporary hit points from her rage by an amount equal to 1/2 the damage she would have taken (ignoring her energy resistance). If the barbarian is at least 16th level, once before her rage ends, she can unleash the stored energy as a breath weapon in either a 60-foot line or a 30-foot cone. The breath weapon deals an amount of damage equal to the full amount the barbarian would have taken from the absorbed effect. Creatures affected by the breath weapon can attempt a Reflex save for half damage (DC = 10 + 1/2 the barbarian's level + her Constitution modifier).
