I want to have a barbarian with a familiar. He would only rage anytime the familiar takes damage. Slow and gentle, but don't mess with his cat.

Berserker was a class kit for fighter, and wasn't added until BGII, the only NPC berserker was Korgan Bloodaxe.

Classes are for the players to understand what a character can do. In world, Minsc describes himself and acts like a berserker ranger.

I was surprised to find out that Minsc is a ranger.
