When foreigners think of Dwarves, most picture a stereotypical image of a drunken brawler, rushing headlong into battle, screaming a strange battle cry and fighting to the death over age-old grudges, uncollected debts, or ancestral vendettas. Nori is that Dwarf.
Dwarven society is both highly democratic and highly merit-based. When someone elects someone else as a politician, that person has to go wander through the underdark until they slay a suitably badass creature (usually a dragon of some sort) and then return as a new politician. Nori was elected as a politician, but got lost wandering around and found his way to the surface by accident. This actually happens more often than you'd thinkis not unusual: Nori has a direction sense somewhat similar to Ryouga. Nori is known as The Dunkmaster in Dwarven society, and sometimes newlyhe will commonly shout "You got dunked!" at people while in combat. Attempting to explain what dunking is to a non-elected dwarves Dwarf will return years later to claim their postsalways result in hilarious failure.

==== Great Blows ====
At 7th level, a Raging Barbarian’s melee attacks are Great Blows. Any enemy struck by the Barbarian’s melee or thrown weapon attacks must make a Fort Save or be stunned for one round. No enemy can be targeted by this ability more than once a round, and the save DC for this ability is 10 + half the Barbarian’s HD + his Constitution modifier.

==== Reaction Chain ====
* You are never surprised nor flat-footed and always act on the first round of any combat.
* Hitting you with a melee attack is now an action which provokes an Attack of Opportunity from you. To clarify: the hit against you resolves first, and then, if you have an attack of opportunity for the round left, you may use it against the opponent who hit you.
* As an immediate action, you may gain 10 temporary HP.
* You may take a move action as an immediate action.
==== Ice Aegis ====
* Fire and Cold Resistance 10
* Dispel [Fire] and [Water] effects with a touch, BAB=Caster level for dispel check.
* Auto-succeed on a will save as an immediate action.
