== Class Notice ==
PLEASE NOTE CLASS CHANGES! 
BEAR WARRIORS MAY NOT DUAL CLASS WITH THE DRUID CLASS 

== Class Description ==
Many people, particularly those in the "uncivilized" regions of the world, revere bears as symbols of the warrior's strength and battle prowess.

 By adopting the bear as a totem animal, warriors of these people hope to tap into some of the bear's strength. Bear warriors, through a special relationship with bear spirits, literally adopt a bear's strength in the rage of battle, actually transforming into bears while they fight. 

Only characters who can already tap into a spiritual power of rage can heighten that power to become bear warriors.

- Hit Die: d12 - Base Attack Bonus: High. - High Saves: Fortitude. - Weapon Proficiencies: None. - Armor Proficiencies: None. - Skill Points: 4 + Int Modifier. - Class Skills: Intimidate, Listen, Survival, and Taunt.

== Abilities ==
Bear Form: A bear warrior who goes into a rage will automatically transform into a bear. At 1st level she will become a small bear, at 5th level she changes into a full grown brown bear and at 10th level she gains a dire bear form. While in those forms the bear warrior regains all her ability scores as well as the normal will save bonus and AC penalty from rage.

* Dire Bear: +12 strength, +8 constitution, +2 dexterity, +7 natural armor, +2 Will saves and Fast Regen +4. All claw and bite attacks have +4 enchantment. 30 base AC.
* This ability otherwise functions as the polymorph spell.
* Scent: A 3rd-level bear warrior gains scent as a bonus feat.
* Extend Rage I: A 4th-level bear warrior gains extend rage as a bonus feat
* Extend Rage II: A 7th-level bear warrior gains extend rage II as a bonus feat

=== Roar ===

At 1st level, a bear warrior gains the roar ability. A bear warrior can let out a terrible roar that causes fear in all enemies that hear the cry. Affected creatures must make a Will save (DC 10 + Bear Warrior Level + 1/2 Intimidate ranks).
Duration: 3 rounds
Cooldown: 45 Seconds

== Other important information ==
* Your Armor bonuses will transfer to your polymorphed bear shape in the following method:

* Half of the enhance bonus on your shield will transfer as a shield enhance bonus.
* The deflection AC bonus on your helm, cloak, or ring will transfer as a deflection AC bonus.
* The natural AC bonus on your necklace will transfer as a natural AC bonus. This will not stack with the natural AC bonus the bear already gets. It will use the higher of the 2 bonuses.
* Barbarians DR feats work while in bear form.
* Knockdown will work while in bear form.
* Charge will work while in bear form.
* Feats in the 'Mode Bar' will work while in bear form, such as power attack.

== Description ==
[[File:At the end of the day by gh mongo.jpg|thumb|508x508px]]
Dwarven battleragers, or kuldjargh ("axe idiots"), are legendary berserker warriors who can enter a battle frenzy through ritualistic singing. They are believed to have been touched by the dwarven gods of battle, who taught them that if they die in battle, they will return to Faerûn stronger than before as a just reward. Therefore, they have no fear of death. They are given to drinking, rowdy and boisterous singing, and drunken dancing. Battleragers command grudging, if fearful, respect within dwarven society, where they are known to have coined such philosophically complex dwarven maxims like "head first" and "if it moves, kill it." Most live short, glorious lives.

While enraged, a battlerager's face becomes distorted and twisted. His teeth grind together as spittle flies from his mouth and dribbles down his beard. His eyes enlarge, bulge, and become bloodshot. Charging into battle, he bellows forth his clan or holy war song, throwing his hammers and axes all the way, before cleaving his foes with his mighty dwarven waraxe. In short, he becomes almost unstoppable. Battleragers are often covered from head to toe in body art, from tattoos to brands to ritual scars. They prefer to wear spiked armor, and some of them ride specially trained boars into battle.

Battleragers are usually single classed barbarians before taking the prestige class, though multiclass barbarian/fighters are also common. Barbarians/rangers and barbarian/clerics (known as "vindicators") are not uncommon as well. Other multiclass combinations are almost unheard of.

The battlerager fills a particular niche in dwarf society and culture. He is a fearless and impulsive warrior, able to enter into an insane rampage. Battleragers are ruthlessly used by dwarf generals for their shock power against attacking armies. NPC battleragers often come from a familial clan made up predominantly of battleragers. These clans often form guilds or halls within dwarven society, though these "guilds" are often more akin to a family or fraternal order. Regardless, battlerager guilds are often located on the fringes of dwarven society, kept out of view and away from easily influenced dwarven children, who often hear of the kuldjarghs' fearlessness but rarely their folly. While heroic battle is honored ifi dwarven society and battleragers often excel in this, more often than not they also epitomize lives wasted in stupid rage, something most dwarves realize they cannot afford in a world filled with orcs and goblins.
