Berserker
The Sons of the Horn
From the northern clans, who never bowed to Auren and learned to bring down the Ascended by drinking their ember through their wounds.
The more broken they are, the hotter the ember burns. The war horn calls the earth: the Thirsting Rush that drinks from the wound, the Whirlwind in the middle of the pack, the Earthsplitter opening beneath it.

The abilities
Choose an ability and watch the class use it, recorded in the game itself. They come in the order they are learned.
Fury of the Horn
The name the north gives to what burns in you when you bleed: the less life you have, the harder each of your blows.
Ember Thirst
What you drink does not heal at once: it is kept in your chest, up to half your life, and closes your wounds little by little, every second.
Thirsting Rush
A rush of up to four steps onto the target: the axe opens the wound of all round it and drinks from it, keeps part of what it took in your chest, stokes your rage and slows those it cut.
