Fighter
Fighters are masters of weapons. They are the only class that can achieve the highest levels of weapon specialization: Mastery, High Mastery and Grandmastery. The prime requisite for fighters is strength. The only requirement for becoming a fighter is a strength of at least 9.
In ToB, the Fighter can draw from a high level ability pool which gives the Fighter some extra abilities.
Kits
- Berserker
This is a warrior who is in tune with his animalistic side and, during combat, can achieve an ecstatic state of mind that will enable him to fight longer, harder and more savagely than any human has a right to. Berserkers tend to be barbarian-like in nature, but not always. Sometimes it is a conscious choice that a warrior in training makes. Regardless, opponents on the battlefield will be unsettled with they see the savage and inhuman elements of the berserker's personality. This class is common amongst dwarves, know to them as "battleragers."

He also gains 15 hit points while enraged. These hit points are temporary, and are taken away at the end of his berserk spree, possibly killing the berserker.
