What does a ring of vampiric regeneration do? I mean I can guess the rough effects but what book is it in?

It's only in the 2E books as far as I know. The user gets 50% of the damage he deals back as hit points. But, that's too powerful, so I dropped it to 25%. That's about equivalent to DR 10 with the only thing stopping it is not getting hit (e.g. high AC or miss chances or Sundering the user's weapon(s) or some such).

I might play a Wiz5/Eldritch Knight 2. Then I could go naked and still have lots of mage armor, etc but also be a decent warrior.

Good idea. I think the Rage Mage might fit the Berserker requirement better.
 

Or get a Glamered armor at first oppertunity. I am not sure if it's actually supported by the rules, but I doubt a DM would disallow using it to look effectively naked :)

I really like the Iron Heroes Berserker class for its possiblity to fight unarmored alone :)

Use Greater Mage Armor, Blur, Displacement, and/or Mirror Image.

Going the feat route (in this case non-core), The Book of Iron Might (Malhavoc) had a feat that granted scaling Natural Armor bonuses. It specifically mentions that it's intended for the Berserker in a loincloth type.

That combined with Druidic Avenger levels (for barkskin and rage) from Unearthed Arcana and/or the Lizardfolk race (2 HD, LA +1; total ECL +3) would give you decent (Natural) Armor.

There's one for Dwarves in Heroes of High Favor: Dwarves. They're forbidden to wear armor or they lose class abilities.

I don't have the book in front of me, so I don't remember the exact PrC name, but the gist is that AC goes up by +X for every enemy that threatens them in combat.

It's a PrC for dwarves, but there's nothing overtly dwarven about it; pretty simple to file off the serial numbers and make it for any race, I should think.
