Berserker

Wrath and Ruin. The Berserker is destruction. He knows not fatigue nor caution—both surely driven away from him in a relentless fury. Those of barbaric nature are said to eat only the dust of war and drink naught but the blood of those felled by their own hand.

Death is no stranger, for it is said that even death fears to take a Berserker before his battle Rage is satiated. Once a Berserker has begun to fight, he only grows stronger, fueled by battle-lust and an unending Rage. The deadliest among them is not the well-rested, but those who are pushed to the brink through combat.
