Barbarian: Path of Twisted Steel
Once a tribe of traditional barbarians, the Path of Twisted Steel evolved along with the technology of Cathar, inventing new ways to combat the increasingly hardened automata being used by the Catharian military. Focusing on their physical bodies in order to push their battle rage to brand-new heights, the Path of Twisted Steel excels at smashing their way through machines, discarding bladed weapons in favor of delivering crushing strikes against enemy armor with fists, flails, and hammers. They are toughened to cope with the massive damage output of their mechanized foes, and have been known to survive entire volleys from automated ballista without so much as a scratch. The more damage they take, the angrier they become, and the more damage they deal.
