Bloodrager
Introduced in Pathfinder's Advanced Class Guide, a Bloodrager is a like a Barbarian except you are very slightly more squishy (1 less HP a level), the more esoteric Barbarian abilities and get some minor magic. As Pathfinder is a 3rd Edition derivative, you are noticibly more awesome than a Barbarian.
Instead* of rage powers you can choose every level (but most of the worthwhile ones are deep in trees so you'll likely specialize anyways), you select a bloodline like a [[[Sorcerer]] and get preselected powers from that bloodline over 20 levels.
If you ever wanted to play a guy who gets angry enough to turn a noodle armed giant who can spear/punch anyone within 50 feet with no setup time and is accompanied by a with a talking raven shaped lump of flesh that grew from a lump on his back you can do it without any further splat support and surprisingly few resources invested.
- Or should be instead of. Because the ACG was extremely rushed and poorly edited Paizo printed an archetype that let you trade any bloodrage power you didn't want for TWO rage powers you did at no extra cost! It was immediately banned for all official games.
