It’s the rush of adrenaline as you stare down your foe, or maybe it’s the smell of blood as you draw it from an adversary. Then again maybe it’s the beauty in victory. Whatever it may be the joy of a fight pierces the very soul of a Combat Fanatic, as they spend their lives searching for another fight, whether they have to start one or not. These are warriors by choice, not by necessity, paving their way through a crowd with their presence, and hoping someone will try to stop them so they can demonstrate what a true victor looks like.
