rageful
Full of wrath
Rageful means full of rage—intensely angry or furious.
The word appears in emotional contexts where angry or furious might seem insufficient: a rageful outburst, rageful tears.
It's less common than related forms like enraged or raging, and can sound slightly awkward or emphatic, which sometimes suits the extreme emotion it describes.
