Berserker refers to the mythological Berserker or berserks of Old Norse literature. In these stories, Berserkers are told to be Norse warriors who fought wearing nothing but animal pelts, in an enraged, trance-like state of fury, with hardly any regard for their life. Due to this, they are believed to have given rise to the meaning of the English word, "berserk."
