Path of the Stormborn

Stormborn barbarians carry the fury of tempests in their blood. Unlike sorcerers who channel their arcane heritage into spells, Stormborn barbarians manifest their power through raw physical might, enhanced by the primal forces of lightning and thunder. Their rage is a storm made flesh, crackling with energy and shaking the battlefield with its ferocity.
