I still like the idea of Blood Meditation I had thunk up where a meditated barb gains power and skill with the more blood he/she bleeds until, near deaths door, they break out in full berserk automatically.

A new idea I have is 'Meditation of the Forefathers' where a meditating barb experiances 'visions' of past events. This is not magic. These are said to be gifts granted by the fallen barbarians of the past as gifts to the meditating barb. They would mostly be generic scenes of distant times and vague meanings but during times of high RP activity they could depict historical scenes of importance concerning current events.
This could be an invaluable RP tool. Not meaning to compete with the clerical and moonmage visions or the bards gossip but rather to give our own perspectives upon current events.
