|class=[[Barbarian In The Dungeon (3.5e Class)|Barbarian In The Dungeon]]
|level=1
|replaces=Hit Die, Class Skills, Rage and its improvements, Uncanny Dodge and Improved Uncanny Dodge, Savage Nature, Hazard Sense, Invigorating Passion, Damage Reduction, Unshakable, Indomitable Will, Tonic Passion and Tireless Rage.
|benefit= The spirit rager's HD is d10 instead of d12. 

Its class skills are as follows: [[Balance]], [[Concentration]], [[Craft]], [[Diplomacy]], [[Handle Animal]], [[Heal]], [[Intimidate]], [[Knowledge]] (nature), [[Knowledge]] (religion), [[Knowledge]] (the planes), [[Listen]], [[Sense Motive]], [[Spot]] and [[Survival]]. 

It gains Sylvan or one of the elemental languages (Aquan, Auran, Ignan or Terran) as a bonus language. It can write in this language, regardless of illiteracy.

* '''Spirit Rage''': At first level it gains ''Spirit Rage''. This feature works exactly like the ''Rage'' feature of a barbarian, except as it follows: while in ''Spirit Rage'' it gains a +4 to Strength and to Wisdom (instead of Constitution), +4 morale bonus to Will saves (instead of +2) and +2 deviation bonus to AC (instead of the -2 to AC). It may make skills check that require focus or act with concentration, given that this concentration lasts no more than one round. At the end of the effect the is [[sickened]] instead of [[fatigued]]. Duration and daily uses are unchanged. This feature counts as ''Rage'' for any requirements.

* '''Indomitable Will''': At second level it gains ''Indomitable Will'' as a barbarian, instead of ''Uncanny Dodge''. 

* '''Spirit Wisdom''': At third level it gains ''Spirit Wisdom'' instead of ''Savage Nature'': it grants the spirit rager a bonus to [[Concentration]], [[Knowledge]] (nature, religion, the planes) and [[Survival]] equal to +2. These bonuses increase by one each four successive levels of spirit rager.

* '''Mystic Shield''': At third level it also gains the ''Mystic Shield'' feature instead of ''Hazard Sense''. This feature grants a +1 dodge bonus to AC and Reflexes and a +1 to Fortitude saves against any magical effect (spells, spell-like or supernatural abilities). These bonuses increase by one each three successive levels, up to a +5 at 15th level. The spirit rager loses the dodge bonus if it's immobilized.

* '''Spirit Body''': At 4th level it gains ''Spirit Body'': this feature allows the spirit rager to consider any weapon it wields or its unarmed or natural attacks as having the [[SRD:Ghost Touch (Weapon Enhancement)|''ghost touch'']] property, as long as it wields it. This effect is active only during ''Spirit Rage''. At level 8th, a spirit rager under ''Spirit Rage'' has [[SRD:Concealment|concealment]] that gives it a 30% chance of eluding any attack. This chance increases by 10% at level 13th and at level 17th. This feature is similar to the ''[[SRD:Blur|blur]]'' or ''[[SRD:Displacement|displacement]]'' spells and it's negated by [[SRD:Ghost Touch (Weapon Enhancement)|''ghost touch'']].

* '''Ethereal Sight''': By level 5th a spirit rager may use a swift action to normally see invisible and etheral creatures. It gains also [[darkvision]] out of 60 feet (18 meters) and a +2 to [[Search]] and [[Spot]] checks. This effect lasts one minute per Wisdom modifier and may be split in multiple uses daily. This replaces ''Improved Uncanny Dodge''.

* '''Greater Spirit Rage''': At level 6th it gains ''Greater Spirit Rage'': its ''Spirit Rage'' bonuses increase to +6 to Strength and Wisdom, +4 to Will saves and +3 deflection to AC.

* '''Damage Reduction''': By level 7th it gains [[Damage Reduction]] 2/cold iron. It increases by one at 10th, 13th, 16th and 19th level.

* '''Slippery Mind''': At level 9th it gains the ''Slippery Mind'' feature as a [[rogue]]. It allows it to try again, a round later, a failed Will save against an enchantment effect. This replaces ''Unshakable''.

* '''Free Spirit''': At level 14th a spirit rager gains the ''Free Spirit'' feature, which makes it immune to any enchantment effect.

* '''Mighty Spirit Rage''': At level 20th it gains ''Mighty Spirit Rage'': its bonuses in ''Spirit Rage'' increase to +8 for Strength and Wisdom, +8 to Will saves and +4 deflection to AC.
