Path of the mad
Barbarians who take the path of the mad are faced with madness, as they cleave through enemies wielding a weapon in their hand while being immersed in adrenalin. They often brew tonics and gather herbs to heighten their adrenalin levels while raging, often going into a flurry of reckless attacks.

Aura of madness
Starting at the 3rd level, when you rage, you emit an aura of madness that extends 10 feet around yourself. Each creature that starts their turn in this aura’s movement speed increases by 10 feet and they gain a bonus to strength based damage rolls equal to half your proficiency bonus until the end of their turn.
In addition while you are in a rage, you may make an additional weapon attack as a bonus action if you take the attack action, however if you do so, the next weapon attack against you has advantage.

Gatherer and brewer
Starting at the 3rd level, you gain proficiency in brewer’s supplies and herbalism kits.

Adrenalin rush
Starting at the 6th level, during a long rest if you have brewer’s supplies on hand you may craft a tonic of adrenaline. As an action you can throw this tonic onto a point within 60 feet of yourself. Each creature in these affected spaces gains a +2 bonus to strength based damage rolls and gains an additional 10 feet of movement for the next minute. You may also drink the tonic as an action for the same effect, as well as you immediately enter your rage.

Mad laughter
Starting at the 10th level, when you reduce a creature to 0 hit points while you are raging, you may immediately start laughing madly. Each creature of your choice within 30 feet of yourself must make a wisdom saving throw versus 8 + your proficiency + your strength modifier. On a fail they are frightened of you until the end of your next turn.

Pure adrenalin
Starting at the 14th level, your tonic of adrenalin becomes so potent that if you drink it, you gain the effects of the haste spell for 1 minute, or until your rage ends.
