SPECIAL ABILITIES
--------------------

Rage (6 Rounds Per Day):
A barbarian can call upon inner reserves of strength and ferocity, granting her additional combat prowess. Starting at 1st level, a barbarian can rage for a number of rounds per day equal to 4 + her Constitution modifier. At each level after 1st, she can rage for 2 additional rounds. Temporary increases to Constitution, such as those gained from rage and spells like bear's endurance, do not increase the total number of rounds that a barbarian can rage per day. A barbarian can enter rage as a free action. The total number of rounds of rage per day is renewed after resting for 8 hours, although these hours do not need to be consecutive.

While in rage, a barbarian gains a +4 morale bonus to her Strength and Constitution, as well as a +2 morale bonus on Will saves. In addition, she takes a –2 penalty to Armor Class. The increase to Constitution grants the barbarian 2 hit points per Hit Dice, but these disappear when the rage ends and are not lost first like temporary hit points. While in rage, a barbarian cannot use any Charisma-, Dexterity-, or Intelligence-based skills (except Acrobatics, Fly, Intimidate, and Ride) or any ability that requires patience or concentration.

A barbarian can end her rage as a free action and is fatigued after rage for a number of rounds equal to 2 times the number of rounds spent in the rage. A barbarian cannot enter a new rage while fatigued or exhausted but can otherwise enter rage multiple times during a single encounter or combat. If a barbarian falls unconscious, her rage immediately ends, placing her in peril of death.

Appearance:Standing six feet tall and weighing in at around three hundred pounds Elwood is an imposing figure. His skin is tanned and rough from long exposure to the sun and smoke. His head is shaved, but you can tell that he's going bald despite his young age. His face is bearded from the cheekbones down, the salt and pepper growth is kept trim and short. His mien is plain and unassuming, despite his size.

Background:Elwood was only five years old when his father was killed in the Battle of Cleveland. This left his waitress mother alone to raise him. They lived in a trailer outside Wheeling, West Virginia. With most everything on Earth destroyed and his mother working long double shifts to keep the roof over their heads there was nobody to make sure Elwood went to school. He spent most of his childhood roaming the streets and hollers with a gang of other disaffected youth. He was in and out of juvi his whole childhood. As soon as he turned eighteen he enlisted with the UNSC as part of a plea deal on a robbery charge. The disciplined environment of the UNSCDF did him a great deal of good.

After basic he passed the tests to get into the ODST. He's spent the last five years kicking down doors and killing terrorist rebels in some of the darkest hellholes in UNSC space. Shortly after he got into the ODST his wealthy paternal grandmother died, leaving his mother some money. She bought Elwood the best armor and weapons available to him in a misguided attempt to reconcile things with her son. While he appreciated the equipment, his new life of violence had made him unable to relate to his mother any longer. Now he's been assigned as part of the detail that's being sent to explore Paradise. Seeing it as a chance for a new start, Elwood is cautiously optimistic about the assignment.

Personality:After losing his father at such a young age, Elwood has always had a temper. He's an adrenaline junky who is always pushing the limits. He loves the thrill of hand to hand combat, it's one of the few things he enjoys. He blames aliens for Earth's problems, and while he grudgingly accepts the Elites, he harbors resentment towards them. Despite all his problems, the ODST is the only thing besides his momma that's ever done good by him. Though he doesn't always do things by the book, he's a loyal soldier and would never betray the UNSCDF.
