Taunting Stance (Ex)

Prerequisite: Barbarian 12. Benefit: The Barbarian can leave herself open to attacks while preparing devastating counterattacks. Enemies gain a +4 bonus on attack and damage rolls against the Barbarian while they’re in this stance, but every attack against the Barbarian provokes an Attack of Opportunity from them, which is resolved prior to each provoking attack. This is a stance rage power.

Terrifying Howl (Ex)

Prerequisite: Barbarian 8, Intimidating Glare rage power. Benefit: The Barbarian unleashes a terrifying howl as a Standard Action. All enemies that have been Shaken by the Barbarian (usually through the Intimidate skill) within 30 feet must succeed at a Will Save (DC = 10 + 1/2 the Barbarian’s level + their Strength modifier) or be Panicked for 1d4+1 rounds. Once an enemy has attempted a save versus this ability (whether successful or not), it’s immune to this power for 24 hours.

Unexpected Strike (Ex)

Prerequisite: Barbarian 8. Benefit: The Barbarian can make an Attack of Opportunity against a foe that moves into any square threatened by the Barbarian, regardless of whether that movement would normally provoke an Attack of Opportunity. The Barbarian can use this ability only when there are no other foes in a square threatened by the Barbarian.

Witch Hunter (Ex)

Prerequisite: Superstition rage power. Benefit: The Barbarian gains a +1 bonus on damage rolls against creatures possessing spells or spell-like abilities. This damage bonus increases by 1 for every 4 levels the Barbarian has. In addition, if they confirm a critical hit against a creature affected by an ongoing beneficial spell effect, that effect is suppressed for 1 round (determined randomly if the creature is currently affected by more than one effect).

World Serpent Totem (Su)

World Serpent Spirit (Su)

Prerequisite: Barbarian 6, World Serpent Totem rage power. Benefit: While raging, the Barbarian considers their weapons to be chaotic-, evil-, good-, and lawful-aligned for the purposes of overcoming Damage Reduction. They also gain a +1 Resistance Bonus on Saving Throws against spells and effects that have an Alignment descriptor or come from an outsider or aberration. This bonus increases by +1 for each world serpent rage power the Barbarian possesses, excluding this one.

World Serpent Totem Unity (Su)

Note: Totem rage powers grant powers related to a theme. A Barbarian cannot select from more than one group of totem rage powers; for example, a Barbarian who selects a Beast Totem rage power cannot later choose to gain any of the Dragon Totem rage powers (any rage power with “dragon totem” in its title). Prerequisite: Barbarian 6, World Serpent Spirit rage power, World Serpent Totem rage power. Benefit: While raging, the Barbarian doubles their fast movement bonus to land speed and cannot be knocked Prone. They also double their world serpent totem Insight Bonus to AC against attack rolls made by an outsider or aberration to confirm a critical hit against them.
