Barbarian Shadow Knight is still one of the most interesting ones to me.

Or Barbarian Monk.

Personally I don't think either of those fit. Barbarians are too ... barbaric to be monks. I mean, a giant Scotsman (what they basically are) is almost literally as far away as you can get (geographically and conceptually) from a Buddhist Monk.

As for Shadow Knights, Barbarians have always been a "good" race. Heck, even their "evil" members (Rogues) are less evil than most: they're not lurking in some sewer or something, they're running the town bank! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

On Sullon Zek Barbarians actually got to be Paladins, and I think that fits better than Shadow Knights (though still not great).

Plus ... Barbs would make terrible SKs for the same reason Erudites make great SKs: SKs require intelligence (and Barbs are dumb). In fact, the more I think about it, the more I remember Barbarians and Erudites are meant to be opposites (Barbs are humans taken to the dumb/strong extreme, and Erudites are humans taken to the smart/weak extreme). Really the two should never overlap class-wise.
