[QUOTE="Jackinthegreen, post: 6188933, member: 6678119"] There are two totem "systems" for barbarians: The one from Complete Champion, and the one from Unearthed Arcana (which is in the SRD too). While you explicitly can't take multiple totems within the same system, you can technically take them [I]between[/I] the systems so long as the class features can still be swapped, such as with the Lion Spirit totem from CCh and the Wolf totem from UA which do trade different abilities.
