Characters appearing in the ''[[Belgariad]]''. Needs more work. Spoilers and [[Loads and Loads of Characters|Loads And Loads Of]] [[Deadpan Snarker|Deadpan Snarkers]] abound!!!
 
Line 106 ⟶ 107:
* [[The Berserker]]: Barak's an unwilling heroic example. Apparently this kind of thing is common in Cherek warriors, even the ones who ''don't'' turn into bears.
* [[The Big Guy]]: He fullfills this role in ''Pawn of Prophecy''. In the later books he's [[The Hero]] of [[The Big Guy]] Band, doing his best to keep the likes of Hettar, Mandorallen, and Relg in line.
* [[Cursed with Awesome]]: Barak's "curse" is to turn into a bear when Garion {{spoiler|Heir to the long-empty throne of Riva and Overlord of the West by treaty}} is threatened. A rampaging, unstoppable bear. At first he thinks it's just a progressive ailment and attemptsthreatens suicide, but once he gets filled in on the trigger conditions (i.e., his family is now the hereditary protectors of Garion's family), he contemplates tasteful ways to work it into his coat of arms. Who wouldn't want to advertise that?
* [[Dual-Wielding]]: With a sword in one hand and a battleaxe in the other.
* [[Everything's Worse with Bears]]: Called "The Dreadful Bear" for a reason.
