2. I want this character to be a jolly carefree fella. His family is NOT dead, life is good, and he both knows his purpose in the world and works hard at it. Essentially he just wants to do good and inspire others to do good as well.

Sounds like a cool idea, what subclass of barbarian?

3. Instead of anger, his "rage" is more like a rush of freedom. When he rages, he’s basically dropping all hesitation, doubt, and restraint, letting himself be completely free in the moment. He fights with a carefree grin on his face and laughs instead of responding to damage in anger. It's kind of a mix of adrenaline and joy, him just being happy to be alive.

4. I never intend to change the mechanics when re-flavoring stuff. Some definitions of rage see it as a vehement desire/passion or a great enthusiasm. I also think it fits the build since with his level of resistance and mobility, he'll probably just jump into the middle of things and bounce around every encounter. He also won't wear armor since he's barbarian and fights with just his fists. What do y’all think?

Flavor it as a blind panic
