Barbarian_icon.png The Barbarian

Steeped in mystery and tradition, the tribes of the North refer to themselves as the "Children of Bul-Kathos," the great and ancient king. To protect their lands from outside forces, they adopted a nomadic lifestyle, frequently moving and maintaining few permanent settlements. Isolating themselves from the world outside their territories, they eschew the use of magic and complex machinery, as they believe these things can only weaken their resolve. The Barbarian, a member of any of several of these tribes, rebuffs the influence of those he sees as soft and weak. Ceaseless clan warfare and the constant struggle to survive in the hostile wilderness are evident in the Barbarian's sturdy and powerful frame. He has developed a kinship with the land and has learned to harness the primal energies within nature to enhance his own substantial physical prowess.
