Veteran Barbarian

A veteran barbarian is past sixty and still fights with the axe he was given at fifteen, and he does not talk about the years in between. What he has instead of speed is a sense of how much of a blow to take in order to land one, and a tolerance for damage that younger fighters mistake for armor.
