I have this barbarian I plan on playing( a way of the beast), that I need to find a race for him. I plan on making his wisdom low, and his intelligence replacing it. I want to make him a somewhat civilized throat ripping beast. Any ideas for a race?
FYI, His name translated from Russian is Beast(Zver)
There are a number of stoic races that make good barbarians. A Dwarf or Dragonborne spring to mind. There is also the Goliath, but they have more of a tribal society and might not fit your concept.
If you really want to lean into the idea of a beast wrapped in a veneer of civilization you could play an Elf. As a High Elf you can even pick up a Wizard cantrip for some out of combat utility. Though your Strength would lag behind the other options and Elf also might not fit your character concept.
I have a tendency to voice Dwarves with thick Russian accents, since I feel like it matches their vibe pretty well, but you can play just about any race to get the feel, especially as a Beast barbarian.

15, 15, 14, 8,10,8 Stats
Play this one like Sabretooth from X-men
But that is more a outlander rager type....not so stoic.....
Aasimar? it is a mini celestial
Minotaur.
I’d second dwarves.
The Russian accent fits well with the dwarf tendencies.
This coming from someone who has played a Russian-sounding dwarf Barbarian.
