Berserk
Branded mercenary saga
Berserk means wildly out of control, especially with rage or excitement.
Someone who goes berserk loses all restraint—screaming, breaking things, attacking.
The word comes from Norse warriors called berserkers, who fought in a frenzied trance.
Today it describes any violent or chaotic loss of composure: The crowd went berserk when the team scored.
As an adjective: a berserk rampage.
