~About The Barbarian~
The Barbarian is a member of any of several tribes on the fringes of civilization, and he refuses the influence of those he sees as soft and weak. Ceaseless clan warfare and the constant struggle to survive in the hostile wilderness are reflected in the Barbarian's sturdy and powerful frame. Though perhaps lacking the sophistication of city folk, the Barbarian has an acute awareness of his surroundings. Because of his shamanistic belief in the animal powers with whom he identifies, the Barbarian is sometimes associated with stories of lycanthropy. In fact, he believes he can call upon the totemic animal spirits to infuse him with supernormal strengths and abilities, but these only work to improve his already superb battle-tactics.

General Notes:
The Barbarian is very similar to the warrior of Diablo I. He will be a master of short ranged hand-to-hand combat. He will simply rip his enemies to shreads using his weapons. He will be able to use all of the typical weapons such as axes, mauls, pikes, and swords. He will rely mostly of brute strength. He will posses the ability to shout war cries, scaring monsters away, or bringing them towards him depending which war cry you use.
