What to Expect
Players can expect to gain separate lines of features for when they are in rage and out or rage. The theme of Jekale & Hyde or Hulk. Gaining bonuses on Unarmed attacks rather than weapon attacks
Playing as Fractured
a Split personality for your rage form and normal form could be easily incorporated.
What would DM Darwin Change?
As a Barbarian, you always want to be raging while in combat. so combat benefits you get while not raging seem kind of pointless. I would change 'Brains & Brawn' to give non-rage an advantage on some social or exploration skill rather that Psy Resistance. and changing 'Cunnin & Brutal' to be able to give an alley some sort of social or Exploration bonus while non raging rather than being able to Disangage/Help as a bonus action when NOT raging.

What to Expect
Raging but with a animal companion
Playing as Primal Spirit
A wilderness explorer or Hunter who didn't want to play a Ranger or Beastheart
What would DM Darwin Change?
Let the player command the beast companion as part of entering a Rage.
'Kin to Beasts'
- Let spells be cast a number of times equal to half proficiency bonus.
- add the ability to have two primal spirits at the same time and be able to command both with entering a rage & Bonus action.
