Howdy Keith. I won't tell Nick you said that!
Like a lot of extreme archetypes, I think Humakt has an attractive mystique as a concept. But I'd like to see a player run a proper Humakti (or Uroxi berserker, for that matter) as a "psychopathic and dangerous fanatic" for once, rather than a bloke with superior combat abilities.
As an experiment I ran what I thought to be a <i>proper</i> Storm Khan as a "friendly" NPC in an RQ campaign a few years ago. The PCs spent most of the adventure trying to avoid him, even at the expense of completing the scenario. I quite liked him though.
