Fighter: Primal Warmaster

You take both martial combat and your connection to the many dangerous animals that dwell within the wild, very seriously. You study the physical abilities of predatory beasts in order to inspire your combat prowess, and you have mastered ways to control, tame, fight and even emulate these creatures. Through your study and close kinship with them, your unique mastery of martial combat is infused with aspects of dangerous, untamed animals.

You have lived among predatory beasts of the world all of your life and have learned ways to tame and train wild animals for the purposes of protection and battle. One of the primary tools of your profession is the whip.

Some Primal Warmaster’s even give their whip a name, and it rarely ever leaves their side.
