====== Berserk ======
{{tag>Edge Background Novice}}

^ **Requirements** | [[tables:ranks|Novice (1)]] |
^ **Type** | [[rules:background-edges|Background]] |

Immediately after suffering a wound (including a [[rules:shaken|Shaken]] result from physical damage), your hero must make a [[attributes:smarts|Smarts]] roll or go Berserk.

While Berserk, his [[traits:parry|Parry]] is reduced by 2 but he adds +2 to all [[skills:fighting|Fighting]], [[attributes:strength|Strength]], melee damage rolls, and [[traits:toughness|Toughness]]. The warrior ignores all wound modifiers while Berserk, but cannot use any skills, Edges, or maneuvers that require concentration, including [[skills:shooting|Shooting]] and [[skills:taunt|Taunt]], but not [[skills:intimidation|Intimidation]].

Berserkers attack with reckless abandon. Anytime his [[skills:fighting|Fighting]] die is a 1 (regardless of his [[rules:the-wild-die|Wild Die]]), he hits a random adjacent target (not the original target). The attack may hit friend as well as foe. If there are no other adjacent targets, the blow simply misses.

The Berserker may end his rage by doing nothing (not even moving) for one full action and making a [[attributes:smarts|Smarts]] roll at -2.
