Battle Master

Battle Masters are paragons of tactical superiority, combining combat maneuvers and experience in the field to dominate every fight.

Battle Master is one of the Subclasses of Fighter. These Fighters are more specialized in controlling the battlefield, using their fighting Maneuvers to attack enemies or support allies in combat.
