Dwarven Battleragers, or kuldjargh (axe idiots), are legendary berserker warriors who can enter a battle frenzy through ritualistic singing. They are believed to have been touched by the dwarven gods of battle, who taught them that if they die in battle, they will return stronger than before as a just reward. Therefore, they have no fear of death. Battleragers command a grudging, if fearful, respect within dwarven society, where they are known to have coined such philosophically complex dwarven maxims like "head first" and "if it moves, kill it." Most live short, glorious lives.

Most Battleragers worship Vorax, though that is not always true. Most are single classed barbarians, but there are some that are multiclass Barbarian/Fighters and occasionally even other combinations.
