'Zerker

When you try to cosplay as Bane but end up looking and behaving like Firaeveus Carron.

A 'Zerker is what happens when a Stimmer goes too far into huffing steroids. They are members of House Goliath who have become rage-filled warriors, after abusing growth stimms, surgeries and other methods to push the extreme physical limits of their bodies.

Overview

The constant chem abuse has also resulted in them suffering mutations, such as spontaneous bone spur mutations which are then used as weapons, and rampant uncontrollable muscle growth that makes 'Zerkers the largest of House Goliath's members. These physical changes have led Zerkers to be classified as post-human and they frequently join Goliath's Underhive gangs, where they bring mindless, rageful destruction to the House's enemies.

As they have basically turned themselves into an Ogryn in all but name, 'Zerkers don't need weapons as their sheer muscle mass is enough to make a god damn Space Marine look as feeble as a Penal Legionnaire.

Crunch

On Necromunda, 'Zerkers are Goliath's first choice of a Brute. Furnace Plates and a Stimm-Slug Stash are just about mandatory on this large lad, and Mutated Fists & Bone Spurs help him hit even harder while adding the only instance of actual Versatile to the Goliath gang. He also has a Combat Drug Stash like the Stimmer, which can make him attack even more, when it doesn’t send him on a bad trip and crater his attacks characteristic. He doesn’t have any skills automatically but does have access to Ferocity, so make sure to buy him Nerves of Steel as soon as you’ve got the XP to do so, or he’ll get pinned like a chump every single round.

Goliaths, as a whole, can more than hold their own in close combat, and the ‘Zerker is a pricy brute that exists only to crush in close combat. He’s stronger and tougher than anything else in the rest of the gang, but in the end the ‘Zerker doesn’t add anything new to the Goliath bag or tricks beyond what they were already trying to accomplish.
