furiousness

State of wrath

Furiousness is the state or quality of being furious—intense anger or rage.

The word is uncommon; fury or rage typically serves better: His furiousness surprised everyone sounds stilted compared to His fury surprised everyone.

Furiousness occasionally describes violent intensity beyond anger: the furiousness of the storm.
