Kit - Barbarian Barbarian
Benefits/Hindrances: Barbarians are intense, and NPCs tend to have very strong reactions to them. People either are drawn by the barbarian's animal magnetism or repulsed by his primitive qualities. This effect comes into play when NPCs meet barbarians for the first time. If the NPC's reaction roll result is 8 or less, an additional -2 bonus is applied to the result. For example, if the character is acting indifferently toward a shopkeeper and the shopkeeper's reaction result is a 7, the shopkeeper is indifferent. However, since the character is a barbarian, the -2 bonus applies, lowering the shopkeeper's result to a 5-a friendly response. The shopkeeper has been won over by the barbarian's presence. However, if the shopkeeper's reaction roll was a 14 or higher, the modifier becomes a +2 penalty, resulting in a 16-threatening-score. For more information on reaction results, see the Dungeon Master Guide.
