Battlerager

(PRESTIGE CLASS)
Dwarven Battleragers, or Kuldjargh (Axe Idiots), are legendary berserkers who can enter a battle frenzy through ritualistic singing.

They are believed to have been touched by the dwarven gods of war, who taught them that by dying in battle they will return even stronger than before as a just reward. As a consequence, these warriors have no fear of death.

Battleragers command a grudging (if fearful) respect within dwarven society and are credited with having coined such philosophically complex dwarven maxims as "Head first!" and "If it moves, kill it!"

Most Battleragers live short, glorious lives.
