Barbarian

A barbarian in the quintessential natural warrior. A barbarian is a selfsufficient warrior who survives off the land. He despises cities and everything they represent. He is a rough and tumble warrior who cares little for social norms. In some ways , he is similar to a ranger. However, even a ranger seems civilized compared to the brutality and baseness of a barbarian. For a barbarian, the only things that matter in life are food and battle.

Wilder

A wilder is the Chaos Races' version of a wizard. A wilders magic is partly derived from his own body, which allows him to increase the power of his spells. However, because of the humanoid inconsistency, this spellcasting can be very unpredictable. Because it is partly based on the body, wilder magic is based on tatoos. Each spell a wilder knows is represented by a tatoo on his body. He memorizes the spell by slowly tracing the tatoo with a finger and speaking its arcane name. This process, known as Initialization, takes 10 minutes per level of the spell. An initialized spell can be released at any time, but a humanoid body can only handle so much initialization energy at any given time.

The act of tatooing a spell onto ones body is a draining experience for a wilder. It takes his full concentration for 1 hour per level of the spell.

Requirements

• Int: 9
• Prime requisite: Int

Abilities & Disabilities

• Same abilities as the general mage class.
• When tatooing a spell onto his body, a wilder must make a system shock roll. If he fails, the tattooing is a very draining experience, giving the wilder a permanent loss of one hit point.
• Spells cast by a wilder have intense unpredictability as determined by the wild mage tables in the Tome of Magic.
• The wilder also has some innate abilities as determined by the DM.
