Yep, he even had a berserk ability. In BG1 there was no barbarian class (they added it only much later at Enhanced Edition). I am sure that he would've been a barbarian.
It will be interesting to see what class he emerges with in BG3. Will they stick with canon (and avoid all the hate that would come from changing him), or will they bow to the inevitable and have him dual-classed or a full-on barbarian?
