Berserker
Berserkers are the brutal unflinching defenders of Asterkarn that have embraced the beast god Mogdrogen’s gifts to shapeshift into ferocious beastlike forms. They harness the bitter unforgiving winds of Asterkarn to infuse their weapons and shatter their foes. When they are not assuming their wereforms, Berserkers bring down their prey in savage dual weapon combat, but any weapon can prove deadly in their capable hands, or talons.
To the Kurn, berserkers are valiant warriors who sacrificed a portion of their humanity to become steadfast protectors of their people. To outsiders, they are savages, little more than the beasts they embody. The Kurn’s long and bloody history lends credence to both arguments.

Features
Honed Weapons of War
Berserkers have honed the art of two-weapon combat to deadly perfection. Their weapons are not just tools, but an extension of their relentless onslaught.
Monstrous Transformation
Berserkers embrace the beast within to assume the form of a bloodthirsty werewolf, or an enigmatic wereraven, each offering unique advantages in the thick of battle.
Unbridled Ferocity
Berserkers rally their allies and leave their enemies shaken with boisterous battle cries. Nothing will keep a berserker from executing their fury upon their foes.
Skills
Bloodfangs
“A cruel double strike leaves your enemies bleeding out.”
Onslaught
“Kurn berserkers would lull their enemies into a false sense of confidence by engaging in a series of feints before unleashing a devastating well-timed blow.”
Wereraven
“Kurn mystics are known to take on the aspect of dread ravens to terrorize the enemy with their talons and ice magic. Through Mogdrogen’s guidance and blessing, you too can assume the form of the wereraven, gaining additional attributes and new abilities for as long as the transformation persists.”
Winds of Asterkarn
“The chill in the Asterkarn peaks is legendary. Some have come to call the wind the reaper’s caress, but to the Kurn it is Amatok’s Breath. Their mystics have learned to channel its fury. For as long as the spell is maintained, the bitter winds of Asterkarn will assail your foes and tear flesh from bone.”
