Barbarian Class Overview

Overview

Technically any Non-Atlantean is a Barbarian, (βάρβαροι) however there are recognised tribes of Barbarians on the fringes of Atlantis that alternate between allying with the Kingdoms and fighting them. Independently minded, the Barbarians are a constant challenge to manage for all who encounter them. This list of the class attributes is also a list of Barbarian Ethnic Groups.
