“Sigil Prep really changed my outlook. Until I started barbarian school, I was even-tempered, barely ever raised my voice. Who knew being angry was so beneficial?”
–Brody “Krusk” Kruskowski, senior Barbarian student
The Barbarian department is designed for students who are looking for the brute force solution to adventuring. Bash it and smash it, let the rest of the party worry about the puzzles and traps. During the course of this program, you will learn to channel your aggression into amazing acts of violence, as well as learning to get as good as you give.
Barbarism is not for the weak at heart, nor is it particularly for the weak at biceps. You won’t have a lot of reading and essays to worry about, but you’re going to be doing some heavy lifting. And heavy hitting. Generally, expect things to be heavy.
Very few of your mandatory courses require textbooks, so you have that going for you. Meanwhile, you will probably spend more time in the infirmary than your peers in other departments.
Students in the barbarian department are offered several majors determining exactly how you’ll shape your rage, and to what effect. All barbarian students are required to take the following courses:
FRESHMAN YEAR
RAGE 101: Tapping into your emotional reserves to bring out impressive displays of might and feats of violence. Some students may elect to channel determination or confidence or some other emotion in place of raw rage, but just know this will make your professor very angry.
Faculty: Anvil; Emily Skimble
UNARMORED DEFENSE 108: Learn to be tougher with your shirt off than with your armor on. Passing this course will require being struck in the chest with a Warhammer without flinching.
Faculty: Trunkus Breakwater
