| Barbarian (Berserker) | |
| Berserkers are subject to all consuming bloodlusts that give them great strength and the ability to ignore pain, but at the cost of losing the ability to be rational or fight defensively. Berserkers frequently continue fighting even after sustaining grave and even mortal wounds, only to keel over after their anger has passed. | |
| Berserkers can be fun and interesting additions to an adventuring group, but they can also be disruptive. They can tend to get themselves and sometimes comrades into lethal situations that they subsequently cannot extricate themselves from due to their Enraged state. A player should take care to balance their character's ability to get out of the scrapes their tempers might get them into. | |

| Savage | |
| Savages are warriors from more primitive and / or less civilized lands who rely on sheer athleticism and moxy rather than fancy or well crafted armaments. Savages tend to focus on survival and overall fitness. | |
| Savages can be somewhat similar to Light Foot but without concentrating overly much on the mastery of a specific weapon (to a Savage everything is a weapon), and with more concentration on raw athletic ability. | |
| Despite the connotation of the word "savage", Savages are not ravening brutes by default; they are simply primal and unspoiled by more advanced modicums of behavior. Many Savages follow a personal or cultural Code of behavior that, while typically more practical and/or direct, is nevertheless as binding to them as a well defined Code of Chivalry is to the most hide-bound and chivalrous of Knights. This is a concept often referred to as "the Noble Savage". | |
