Berserker

This article is about a concept that only appeared in an adaptation of J.R.R. Tolkien's works. Thus it is non-canon.

In The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers, a Berserker is a juggernaut-type of Uruk of Saruman with a great two-handed sword. It wears little armor, and, according to the Weta Workshop designers, has a helm which it fills with blood before placing on its head and charging into battle, developing a blood-lust.
