Barbarians
Barbarians are wary of all magic and never (well, rarely, atany rate) handle enchanted items. They believe only what they
see as real, and, because of that, they have difficulty understand-
ing any type of magic, aside from the shamanistic magic of their
own tribes. Barbarians are wild and untamed "painted people,"
almost a separate race of their own, though in fact they are al-
ways either Human or Saurian (the two types of tribes are very
different in appearance, but their skills, abilities, and interactions
with the world are similar enough that they are grouped togeth-
er). As a group, they develop into very resourceful warriors, due
largely to the fact that both the males and the females live out in
the wild lands, and have thus grown very strong and resilient.
Special adaptations to their harsh environment include skills that
allow them to heal faster, learn to hit more in a single round of
combat, and use their adrenaline rushes and berserker rages at
will. These abilities generally enable a skilled Barbarian to quite
effectively destroy any who might disturb his or her temper.Races: Human
