Path of the mutant

This class can help you create a wide varaiety of fighters. From the classic barbarian who uses bear claws to shred his enemys, to one that can create rock maces out  of his own hands. You could even create a barbarian with a strong bond to eldtrich creature which can help him attack usign tentacols whips.

The rage you feel inside is connected to this ability. You may be blessed by a forrest spirit, which gave you this power to protect the innocent and the wood you come from. Maybe you are born in a tribe which reside under the magmatic rage of a volcano, which gifted you your powers. Maybe you are the result of untold rituals which bound you to some arcane power you can't get rid of.

This Subclass aims at allowing multiple backgrounds to fit the simple archetype of a mutant barbarian
