The Beastmaster | comment |
A type of character who uses the assistance of an animal, Beast of Battle, force of nature, or just some sort of not-highly-sapient creature (with free will) to help them fight. There are a few variations to this: The creature in question has befriended the Beastmaster with a lifelong bond, and is always by their side, constantly ready for combat and play. The Beastmaster can convince, cajole, or outright force a critter/creature to fight with them via some type of influence or power. Sometimes they're also a Nature Hero. The beast being used is actually mystical in nature, such as an elemental or spirit, typically requiring a pact; and is normally called with magic. The ally is artificial in nature, normally constructed by the master. Is either a Robot Buddy (a Robot Master), or a puppet controlled by either magic or plain-old strings (a Marionette Master). The Beastmaster can grunt and squeak and squawk with the animals or telepathy and convince them or request for them to help. The Beastmaster can see through the eyes of animals and maybe even controlling it from the inside with a form of mind control. In video games, the Beastmaster either has complete control over their ally (perhaps via RTS controls or assuming direct control), indirect control over the ally via Squad Controls ("attack on my mark"), the ally follows a "Monkey-see, monkey-do" mentality and mimics the master's actions ("attack when I attack"), or the ally just does what it wants in range of its master ("...I wanted you to attack anyway"). In the latter case the playerbase may regard the job as unpopular as the AI isn't always very good at doing actions that don't kill everyone. This will normally not be the case in other forms of fiction, as no computer is directing the ally's actions, that's now the plot's job. Due to the fact that the ally is, at best, another damage dealer/damage taker, Beastmasters are generally able to do things on their own in an MMORPG environment. The Beastmaster is often an Animal Lover too. Subtropes include the following: Dragon Rider Dragon Tamer Mon Trainer/Tamer Pest Controller Subtrope of The Minion Master, which covers the general use and creation of minions in battle. Sister trope to Marionette Master, a variant of Minion Master focusing on dolls, puppets and similar animated toys. Attack Animal and/or Summon Magic are common options for the Beastmaster's weapons, but martial variants exist, often wielding axes, a spear, or being an Aloof Archer. See Whip of Dominance for when the beastmaster wields a whip for either control/taming purposes as well as a personal weapon. May overlap with Fluffy Tamer. When associated with nature, tends to also be a Classical Hunter. See Good Taming, Evil Taming for when the methods of training/taming characterize the beastmaster as a cruel or kind. Not to be confused with The Beastmaster, which was a 1982 fantasy movie and a 90's show about a Nature Hero, very, very loosely adapted from a 1959 science fiction book series, or the Shoujo manga Beast Master, which has a completely different story. |

Worm: The main character, Taylor, has the power to psychically command invertebrates, such as insects, arachnids, and crustaceans. She has lots of fine control over them, to the point where she can summon them unconsciously to aid her when under stress. On top of that, there is no known upper limit to the number of bugs she can control at once, though her range is restricted to a radius of a couple of miles. Bitch has the power to transform dogs into huge, incredibly strong Lovecraftian monsters, but she can't control them mentally. Instead, she has to train the dogs to respond to ordinary words and whistled commands, otherwise they wreak havoc when she transforms them. Fortunately for her, her power also gives her the secondary effect of having an innate understanding of canine psychology, so she's probably the best dog trainer on the planet (unfortunately, she lost most of the ability to understand human psychology as a side effect). The sequel, Ward, introduces Chicken Little, who can control birds, though his control is not as precise as Taylor's command over bugs was. It's heavily implied that his power is a derivative of Taylor's, hence the similarities between them. |

Oddly, of the ones listed, only Mina's is completely useless in combat. Pets in attack mode are subject to attacks, too, just in case you try sending the dog to rush through a tornado. | |

The Beast Tamer class in the Disgaea series supports monsters by increasing their stats and EXP gain with her abilities or by simply being adjacent to them and is powered up by them in the latter two games of the series. It's something of an odd case when considering that the monsters in question are perfectly sentient and differ little from the humanoid Netherworld citizens in anything but appearance. | |

The sequel, Octopath Traveler II has the beastling Ochette, who, like H'aanit, is capable of capturing monsters that can be summoned in battle (though unlike H'aanit, she can summon hers an infinite number of times). She may also prepare captured monsters into foods that have various effects like healing or buffing. She, too, can Provoke NPCs into battle using her captured monsters. Unlike H'aanit, Ochette has two possible animal companions to choose from at the start of her tale, the physically-inclined jackal Akala or the magically-inclined owl Mahina, and while she can understand what animals are saying similarly to H'aanit, her own animal companions are fully capable of talking. | |

Grineer Drahk Masters in Warframe train and use the pig-like Drahks in combat, which they can endlessly summon. Drahk Masters wear a heavy suit with padded arms much like police K9 trainers, allowing them to deflect the player's melee blows from in front; paired with their throwing mace which can disarm you, they can become highly obnoxious foes. Similarly, there's the Hyekka Masters, who utilize Kavats to attack their enemies. The Tenno train Kubrows (a monotreme dog-like creature) and Kavats (a reptilian cat-like creature) and augment them with Mods to assist them in combat, albeit only one creature at a time. | |

Tales Series: Arietta the Wild from Tales of the Abyss usually brings in her beasts whenever she fights, except when there are other God Generals around. It also helps that those beasts actually raised her. Jao from Tales of Xillia. He's accompanied by wolves whenever he's alone, and in your first fight with him, he'll keep calling in more monsters to assist him if you get rid of the ones that are with him initially; it's specifically stated to be a special ability he possesses. Ivar is the same and is said to have the same ability; in fact he has a Wyvern he hatched and cared for as an egg that ends up making the second boss fight with him tricky. |

Lyrical Nanoha: Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS introduced Caro Ru Luche. She has two dragons she can call into battle, her pet dragon Friedrich, and the Dragon God Voltaire. She claims that she doesn't control Voltaire so much as call for his assistance if things are really desperate: it's implied that he will not answer the summons if his power is not needed. StrikerS also introduced her rival, Lutecia, who commands a wide variety of Insectoid Aliens in combat, ranging from swarms of mechanical bugs to an insectoid Monster Knight to Kaiju Big Creepy-Crawlies. Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha ViVid introduced a new one in the True Witch Fabia Crozelg, who has an army of imp-like devils at her beck and call. |

Ultima Online had tamers as a skill set who depending on the circumstances could be either pretty powerful or near useless. They were commanded by typed commands or clicked ones. Tamers would need to make sure both that their pets would attack when needed and protect them when needed as well. | |

Zak Saturday from The Secret Saturdays is able to communicate with and, should he wish, fully control cryptids. This ability stems from Drew getting in close contact with the mystical Kur Stone when pregnant with him, with everyone believing that he's meant to become a counter to Kur, an ancient evil who held the same power. It turns out that Zak is the reincarnation of the creature instead. | |

Carpe Jugulum ties it to their better-known hypnotic abilities: as far as the Magpyrs are concerned, "lesser creatures" definitely includes humans. Parodied in Jingo, which says that werewolves have power over most animals, providing all they want them to do is cringe and try to look as inedible as possible. |

Beastlords in Fallout Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel. Living in caves with radiation mutated them, gave them telepathy and also drove them insane, making them crave human meat. In battle they control various mutant animals and throw exploding beetles as grenades. They are the only enemies that cannot be recruited by the Brotherhood after they are defeated and things go From Bad to Worse. The Brotherhood tried to harness their ability for the common good, but concluded that they can only be useful by working to death in penal camps. | |

World of Warcraft: Hunters can have animal companions that assist them in battle. The Beast Mastery talent tree works with the bond between Hunter and pet, and ultimately grants access to Exotic pets that other Hunters can't tame, such as Devilsaurs, Core Hounds, Silithids and Chimaeras. World of Warcraft also gives the Warlock class pets, although they are more limited in nature than the Hunter ones (Hunters can tame pretty much every animal and customize it, using it as a friend and companion; Warlocks have a set number of demons with fixed abilities and names, that are enslaved). Frost Mages can summon a Water Elemental as a permanent pet/companion as a perk of the Frost talent tree. Going into the realm of NPC's, there's the half-orc Rexxar, who is essentially a Hunter minus the archer aspect and the Beastmastery taken up to eleven. In Warcraft 3, the hero class that Rexxar belonged to is actually called the Beastmaster. All its abilities summon different kinds of animals (bear, hawk, boar, and STAMPEDING GIANT LIZARDS). Other hero types can also summon minions, but the Beastmaster's arsenal is entirely based around it, letting him summon a self-supporting army. There are also the pet battles, a Pokémon-esque feature that is practically a whole game itself. The previously entirely cosmetic non-combat pets can only be used to fight other pets (either in the wild to tame them or controlled by designated Trainer NPCs and other players). |

Beast Tamer: Rein Shroud can create "Provisional Contracts" with various animals to help him, and when he was with the hero party used this to great effect for support and scouting. When forming a more permanent contract with one of the Strongest Species, like Cat Girl Kanade or dragon girl Tania, his own abilities are increased to match who he's contracted with, giving him Kanade's physical strength, Tania's magical power, and Fairy twins Sora's and Runa's magical control and skill with status effects respectively. This is far above and beyond what a normal Beast Tamer is known to do, as they are limited to only a single animal at a time, period. | |

Homestuck: Tavros can psychically control pretty much any kind of animal or creature, including the trolls' guardian lusus. This control also extends to the enemies they fight in the Medium, ironically making him one of the most powerful players in their session (although he refuses to actually hurt any of them). Then it turns out that this power extends to Becquerel, and that he's successfully controlled said reality-warping god-dog before. His ancestor the Summoner was so good at this that he essentially became a Super-Soldier in a World of Badass and led a revolution. The former Troll Empress-turned-Black Queen has similar control over the equally powerful GCat as a result of giving herself every psychic power available to trolls. |

In the DLC The Golems of Amgarrak, party member Jerrik Dace has this specialization, and has a companion called Snug who's a bronto (basically a rhino-like creature used by dwarves as a beast of burden). | |

Pathfinder: Pathfinder keeps D&D's Druid and Ranger options, and throws in a Summoner class who binds his life to his beast (known as an Eidolon). While the beast in question is technically a planar outsider, the Eidolon (traditionally) takes the form of an animal, and as the Summoner levels up, the Summoner adds more and more abilities to his eidolon. And if you choose the Broodmaster Archetype instead of the standard class, you can make a horde of individually weaker eidolons that still kick plenty of ass! The Advanced Class Guide adds the Hunter to the mix, a Druid/Ranger hybrid class that focuses on the bond between the Hunter and their animal companion. Giants often tame large, powerful animals and beasts to keep as pets, guardians, war animals and steeds: Cloud giants gravitate towards flying creatures; regular birds, griffins and hippogriffs, Roc Birds and air elementals are commonly seen in all cloud giant holds, while explicitly good-aligned giants often keep pegasi and dragon horses while their evil kin prefer wicked creatures such as harpies. Stone giants often keep powerful, primeval animals — cave bears and, more rarely, dire wolves serve a role similar to dogs', while mammoths are sometimes kept as mounts. Some stone giant communities raise gorgons (evil, bull-like creatures with petrifying breath) as a sort of livestock. Storm giants keep a wide variety of giant animals as mounts: rocs are popular flying steeds, and they ride whales, large sharks and sea serpents when they need to travel over sea. |

Meiko Rokudo in Ghost Sweeper Mikami is able to control 12 powerful Shikigami (beast-like spirits or monsters), with different abilities. However, Meiko is very powerful but also ditzy, inexperienced and extremely insecure; she not only considers these spirits more like pets, but is easily scared by little things (little spiders, a balloon that bangs), and then she summons instinctively enormous quantities of energy causing massive destruction. On the other hand, Meiko's mother (as the Shikigami's former master) can control all of the twelve Shikigami perfectly. | |

Dungeons & Dragons: This is an aspect of many classes, though the Druid is the king of it. There's a Beastmaster prestige class in 3.5 Edition that allows for the mastery of magical beasts like displacer beasts or grey renders instead of animals the way a standard Ranger or Druid commands. The Ranger of 4th Edition has a Beastmaster build option which allows him to fight alongside a beast that he has forged a bond with. The build even gives the ranger a ritual that he can use to raise the beast should it die in battle. Continued in 5th Edition, with one of the variations on the Ranger class being the Beast Master (now written as two words). In the Eberron campaign, the Artificer class can create homunculi and its Battle Smith variant is accompanied by a full-on robot animal sidekick. |

Steven Universe: Steven himself has made friends with a magical pink lion, now named Lion, which was later revealed to have been previously allied to his mother, Rose Quartz. Rose herself was shown in a flashback to own an entire pride of lions hundreds of years ago. Jasper is a darker take on this trope: she seeks to form an army of corrupted Gem monsters to wage war against the Crystal Gems. After Gem Hunt, she's always seen with a Quartz monster in tow that she keeps in line through intimidation and physical force, and at one point even forces it to fuse with her out of desperation when Smoky Quartz is beating her down. |

Final Fantasy XIII-2 has Serah become this; after defeating Monsters in combat, she has a chance of receiving their Crystal, allowing them to be incorporated into the party's battle line-up. Mog claims that Serah's ability is a minor form of Summon Magic, gifted to her by Lightning (who is also seen leading a veritable army of monsters in the intro). They aren't directly controlled, but their abilities and priorities can be managed by the player. This took a bit of a strange turn with the DLC, which allowed players to unlock other characters from the first game as such monsters, including Lightning herself. Twice. | |

Dark Heresy: Verminspeakers are psykers who flee persecution by hiding in the depths of under-hives or the wildernesses of death worlds, where they form powerful bonds with alien predators, parasites and mutant animals that they use to protect themselves with. They have two unique powers: the minor power Verminspeaking allows them to enter the minds of any one creature in range, seeing and hearing through its senses but not directing its actions, while the major power Bestial Ally lets them mind-control an animal into becoming their steadfast ally. The latter's downside is that, if this attempt fails, the animal will go berserk and try to kill the Verminspeaker. | |

The Elder Scrolls Throughout the series, this is a racial power of the Bosmer (Wood Elves). Known as the "Beast Tongue" ability, they can calm hostile wild animals and, in some games, even get their aid in battle. The Bosmer revere Y'ffre, essentially the god of nature, as their most important deity and it is through him that this power is granted. Giants are said to hold this power over the mammoths they herd. They can reportedly communicate with the mammoths, and the relationship is symbiotic and based in mutual respect. In exchange for the protection of the Giants, mammoths allow the Giants to milk them and produce cheese. There have been reports of Giants eating mammoths, but this is always "conducted with reverence" and presumably only done to mammoths who have died of natural causes or following a Mercy Kill. Spriggans, a race of tree-like Plant People with a Gaia's Vengeance tilt, can command nearby animals to attack intruders in their domain. They are most fond of doing this with bears, and some varieties of Spriggan can even summon a magical bear from thin air. Wolves and bears are sometimes known to have reduced hostility toward werewolves and werebears, respectively, even if they aren't in beast form. They are also sometimes known to hunt with and follow werewolves and werebears when they are in beast form. The howl of a werewolf or growl of a werebear has also been known to summon wolves or bears to aid the creature in battle. The "Command Creature" spell and its variants throughout the series allow the player to do this as well, with the strength of the spell corresponding to the level of creature one can command. In Skyrim, the Animal Allegiance shout allows the Dragonborn to do this regardless of race. The Kyne's Peace shout makes animals not run from or attack the player. |

A Song of Ice and Fire: Wargs are people who possess the rare ability to bond with individual animals and project themselves into their companions' minds, taking limited control over the beast and viewing the world through its senses. The most common creatures "possessed" in this manner are dogs, described as the easiest animals to control, and wolves, since pack-hunting canids are similar enough to humans in mentality to make controlling them relatively straightforward. Other animals are more difficult to direct, and tend to be used by either specialized wargs or ones who want to show off their power. The Stark children all possess direwolf cubs. Hints are dropped that all of them are latent wargs, though only Bran actively develops the ability, while it remains a passive one with Jon and Arya for most of the series, although in the last book Arya demonstrates the ability to consciously project into a stray cat. Varamyr Sixskins, a wildling, is so named for having six bonded animals — three wolves, a panther, an eagle, and a huge white bear. |

One Piece: Mohji, the first-mate of the Buggy Pirates, earned his Red Baron of the Beast Tamer precisely because of the trope. He rides a giant lion and his hat (hair?) changes from season-to-season to different animals. Apis from the filler Warship Island arc ate the Whisper-Whisper Fruit (Hiso Hiso no Mi), which allows her to communicate with animals. Chopper can speak with animals naturally, since he's an animal himself. An inherent trait of Fishmen and Merfolk is the ability to communicate with and command sea creatures. One of them in particular, Princess Shirahoshi, has the ability to telepathically summon gigantic Sea Kings. This ability is so powerful it's considered one of the three Ancient Weapons, Poseidon; making the young princess the current incarnation of Poseidon. Luffy himself has mastered the trope ever since the timeskip: he's become so proficient at Haki that he can tame and befriend huge and/or dangerous animals in a flash. Another filler arc in the anime has Breed, whose devil fruit allows him to assert his will over other living beings after he has placed a collar on them, but only if they are able to hear him make his commands. Law gets around being collared by giving himself and Luffy earplugs. He mainly uses this power on animals because he thinks Humans Are the Real Monsters. O-Tama from the Wano arc has a Devil Fruit that allows her to create kibi-dango from her cheeks, which she can feed to wild animals to befriend them. Handy when you're a mostly defenseless little girl in a dangerous country. This skill is vital in the climax battle because it turns out it can also subjugate artificial Zoan Devil Fruit users, allowing her to turn a significant portion of Kaido's army to the heroes' side (it has no effect on natural Zoan Devil Fruit users, however). |

You, and a very large number of the NPCs in the Pokémon games are essentially Beastmasters. In fact, Pokémon is actually short for "Pocket Monsters", and refers to the fact that most "Pokémon Trainers" (you and the aforementioned NPCs) keep their pet Pokémon in Pokéballs and send them out either for bonding or for helping them with a particular task (like battling other trainer's Pokémon). | |

Jujutsu Kaisen: Megumi Fushiguro has the Ten Shadows Technique that lets him use shadows to create Shikigami, which manifest into different types of beasts such as wolves, an owl, toads, rabbits, etc. Suguru Geto has Curse Manipulation, which allows him to absorb unbound cursed spirits and then summon them again as his thralls for use in combat and more mundane activities. Apparently, he can use them indefinitely unless they've been destroyed, or he casts them all at once in his supreme art. He can hold at least 4,000 inside of his body at once and it's unknown if there's an upper limit. Since Cursed Spirits are the primary threat faced by mankind in this world, Geto's ability to absorb and control them almost indiscriminately earned him the classification of "Special Grade Jujutsu Sorcerer." A title only given to four people in the setting, ncluding him, that means he has the ability to take down an entire country single handed. |

Shibata Genzo of Kemono Michi is both one of the most powerful, effective, and affectionate examples. A former pro wrestler, he uses his incredible speed, power, and resilience to subdue most every demonic beast he encounters, holding them down and dodging their attacks with barely any effort or injury, and near-instantly charming and taming all but the most dangerous of species. Notably, his goal throughout the series is to open a pet shop, and spread the joys of pet ownership to a world that wants all demonic beasts exterminated. | |

Discworld vampires can, as in some legends, command lesser creatures, with Otto in The Truth using it to quell a mob of dogs outside the Times offices.

Final Fantasy: Final Fantasy XI has the Beastmaster class. Also, the Dragoon class receives a pet wyvern. While XI is the Trope Namer, Final Fantasy V started the tradition. In addition to the Trainer class which used whips and could capture and control enemy monsters, the archery-focused Hunter could summon animals to achieve random effects. The GBA remake retroactively named the class Beastmaster, just to drive it home. Final Fantasy X breaks the series' traditional trend of Summon Magic (a single high-cost, high-pay-off attack) for this; Summoners can only summon a single Aeon at a time, (when Yuna does so, they replace the whole party) and control them directly. Obtaining Aeons involves a soul-binding contract between Aeon and Summoner, and the Aeon's power grows in proportion to the Summoner's. It is also implied that they share a Psychic Link, as Yuna is shown experiencing significant strain after each one is destroyed in the ending. Final Fantasy X-2 has the Trainer dress-sphere. Beastmaster is also a class in Final Fantasy Tactics Advance for Nu Mou. They play instruments to control enemy monsters, making them good matches for blue mages and hunters. Hilarity Ensues if you force a monster through a Beastmaster to break the law and watch the monster get sent to jail. Final Fantasy VI has Shadow who's dog Interceptor will randomly counterattack for Shadow, Relm has a skill called Control which allows her to take control of an enemy monster. Final Fantasy VIII has Rinoa who uses her dog Angelo to assist her in Limit Break. Final Fantasy XIII-2 has Serah become this; after defeating Monsters in combat, she has a chance of receiving their Crystal, allowing them to be incorporated into the party's battle line-up. Mog claims that Serah's ability is a minor form of Summon Magic, gifted to her by Lightning (who is also seen leading a veritable army of monsters in the intro). They aren't directly controlled, but their abilities and priorities can be managed by the player. This took a bit of a strange turn with the DLC, which allowed players to unlock other characters from the first game as such monsters, including Lightning herself. Twice. Final Fantasy XIV has the Arcanist class, who eventually evolve into Summoners or Scholars. Summoners use smaller version's of the game's Summons (who in this universe are genocidal energy beings) for combat, while Scholars use fairy companions for healing. |

Magic: The Gathering: The players themselves may count as this if they're playing the right creatures, but there are specific character examples as well, such as the planeswalker Garruk Wildspeaker. More mundanely there's the Master of the Wild Hunt, Wren's Run Packmaster and Wolf-Skull Shaman, all of which create wolfpacks around them, as does Turntimber Ranger, which brings along a wolf for every fellow adventurer you summon. (One hilarious combo uses Xenograft set to Ally to produce an infinite loop, leading to an arbitrarily large Ranger and a similarly huge number of wolves.) |

Players won't make much progress in ARK: Survival Evolved unless they fulfill this trope. After beating a creature unconscious and feeding it enough of the right food* bar a few exceptions that are tamed less violently, it becomes your pet. Most of the various creatures greatly exceed the player's own abilities in at least one way, whether in mobility, resource gathering, special abilities, or something else. And of course, combat. Without the assistance of tames, the player stands little to no chance of defeating stronger creatures and bosses. You can collect a vast army to help you survive and fight, and control their behavior through whistling commands. Whether it's a humble Dodo, a pack of Raptors, or a mighty T. rex, mastering them is the name of the game. | |

White Sheep (RWBY): Jaune and his sisters can all command the Grimm, though older siblings' orders outrank those of younger ones (Jaune can't countermand his older sister Sapphire but can countermand his younger sister Amber). Naturally, Salem's orders overrule all of her children's. When Jaune gives Yang a Grimm parasite to replace the arm Adam cut off her, Yang also gains the ability to create (miniature) Beowolves and control them. Once Jaune becomes Salem's heir and Crown Prince, the order is shaken up- he now can countermand all his sisters' orders to the Grimm, but is still subservient to Salem. Then the God of Darkness severs Salem's family's connection to the Grimm. That said, there are differing degrees to how well Grimm can be controlled by the family of Salem. While most Grimm will instantly obey them, Ancient ones have been shown to be able to resist commands for one reason or another- the Nevermore and the Deathstalker in initiation both resisted Jaune's commands to leave him alone, and Mannie has been shown to ignore commands by Salem at times (even if it's as minor as stealing her scroll and not giving it back). |

Granblue Fantasy has Ferry, an Erune girl, who has a strong bond with her circle of ghostly creatures (Beppo, Fugee, Nicola, Geegee and Momo) that can appear out of thin air and also help her deal damage in her Charge Attack. In the Fighting Game spin-off Granblue Fantasy Versus, her pets also augment many of her regular attacks, but they don't act independently. Rather, Geegee can be thrown like a mine to set up traps and Momo transforms into a bouncing orb that restricts the opponent's movement. True to the trope, Ferry can hear and understand her pets's silent voices (no one else can) and even wields a whip as her weapon. | |

Shadowrun: All mages can summon spirits to aid them, which either grants them a temporary servant for a single scene or can be semi-permanently bound to the summoner until their terms of service are done. Although Spirits can't affect the normal world without manifesting, once they do manifest they can be very nasty combatants and many mages in Shadowrun are Properly Paranoid enough that they keep a few powerful ones on retainer as bound spirits. This is another reason that Shoot the Mage First is a vital in-universe tip for shadowrunners and security personel, as a dead mage means spirits depart the mortal plane immediately afterwards. Technomancers can summon (and register) sprites, which are much like spirits that exclusively exist in the matrix. Sprites are in many ways the linchpin of Technomancer playstyles, as it is unique to them and the only thing that deckers cannot physically do. |

The Legend of Dick and Dom: A character who is actually called "The Beast Master" is the Big Bad. He's seen controlling many types of animals, although he tends to foil his own schemes by (for example) trying to get ants to capture his enemies. Prone to throwing tantrums when he fails- he's seen roasting a pair of pigeons at one point. Can also turn parts of his body into animals ("My powerful caterpillar arm will devour you!"), and other people into animals, who are then under his power. | |

Warhammer Online has the Squig Herder (a goblin and his pet fungus creatures), and the White Lion (an elf and his pet... white lion). Although in the tabletop game, the aforementioned elves are only called White Lions because they have to hunt, kill, and skin one as an initiation test. They then wear the skin as a cloak. They do, however, now have a chariot in which two elves ride, pulled by actual lions. That's gotta be awkward... |

In the setting of How to Train Your Dragon, dragons come in various breeds, all of which are terrifying in some way (some spit acid, some throw bone shards like spears, some roar loudly enough to shatter boats...) but none more so than the Night Furies. A Night Fury can breathe fire, blend perfectly into darkness, and fly terrifyingly fast. No one has ever killed a Night Fury. And Hiccup, a scrawny 15-year-old—with no combat experience, no outside assistance and no previous training—was able to tame one. And fly it into battle. Even after Hiccup teaches the other Vikings how to ride and bond with dragons, he's clearly the best at it. | |

Final Fantasy X breaks the series' traditional trend of Summon Magic (a single high-cost, high-pay-off attack) for this; Summoners can only summon a single Aeon at a time, (when Yuna does so, they replace the whole party) and control them directly. Obtaining Aeons involves a soul-binding contract between Aeon and Summoner, and the Aeon's power grows in proportion to the Summoner's. It is also implied that they share a Psychic Link, as Yuna is shown experiencing significant strain after each one is destroyed in the ending. | |

Jao from Tales of Xillia. He's accompanied by wolves whenever he's alone, and in your first fight with him, he'll keep calling in more monsters to assist him if you get rid of the ones that are with him initially; it's specifically stated to be a special ability he possesses. Ivar is the same and is said to have the same ability; in fact he has a Wyvern he hatched and cared for as an egg that ends up making the second boss fight with him tricky. | |

Yang Jian has a living Fabao (in Taoism, a magic weapon) in the form of the Heavenly Roar Dog, which can grow to become as large as an elephant and attack his enemies by biting them. Mo Lishou of the Four Demon Clan Generals commands another living Fabao, the Flowery Marten: normally is a rat-sized white weasel with flower-shaped marks on its fur, but can become as large as an elephant, fly around and eat whole soldiers in one gulp. |

Dota 2 has a few examples, including one literally called 'Karroch the Beastmaster', who worked in a cruel king's menagerie as a child. Karroch learned to communicate with the king's captive animals and led them to rebel, resulting in The Mad King's death. Gameplay-wise, Beastmaster can summon a boar to assist in combat and a hawk to scout. Worth noting that during the first outing, Karroch was actually the aforementioned Rexxar, he just became Karroch to avoid copyright strikes. A number of other heroes can summon animals to aid in combat, most noticeably there is Sylla, the Lone Druid, who is at his most dangerous when he is fighting along side his Spirit Bear. |

Utawarerumono: Aruruu adopts the tiger Mukkur early in the storyline, which apparently carries a title and makes her 'Mother of the Forest.' A mook who tries kidnapping her finds out she is not just a helpless Token Mini-Moe princess and is brutally killed and eaten by said kitty. Mukkur is generally a pretty amiable fellow though. Later, she also makes a pet of Gacatar, some sort of small ferrety creature with special powers that allows her to perform her ultimate technique. She can talk to both and is essentially Mukkur's mother. The sequels have Rulutieh, princess of Kurjuy. While she has no combat ability herself, she rides into battle on her giant flightless bird, Cocopo. She can't communicate with Cocopo to the extent that Aruruu can Mukkur, but Cocopo is very protective of her and a force to be reckoned with. |

It is also very illegal, right up there with gate magic, entropy magic, necromancy, and creating sentient elementals, due to its sheer destructive potential.

Dino Attack RPG: The Mutant Dinos caught and tamed by Rex, such as Trouble, became loyal to him. He could also use his ability to communicate with dinosaurs to send Mutant Dinos, even wild ones that he had not tamed, to fight for him, which he usually exploited during his clashes against Kotua and Chaos. Stranger teamed up with a Mutant Lizard on Adventurers' Island, who fought alongside him in battle. Chompy could qualify as a beast, thus giving Frozeen this role. Until it was revealed that he was only a puppet leader controlled by the Darkitect, Dr. Rex was the leader of the Mutant Dino army, which referred to him as Alpha Rex. With that revelation, it became clear that the true Beast Master was the Darkitect. |

Looking for Group: Token Evil Teammate Richard develops a monster-catching hobby in Act II, usually by capturing the survivors and orphans of his rampages and stuffing them in his Bag of Holding. His three mains are an albino dragon, a kraken, and evil reptile prince, and then he discovered a mad wizard's chimera farm and went nuts with Gotta Catch 'Em All. | |

Majesty has Cultists, followers of the nature-linked God of Chaos, who are much more likely to charm monsters than kill them. A Cultist soon amasses quite a retinue of giant rats, rocs, medusae, and hellbears, and their temple routinely spawns monsters for Cultists to tame. When not leading their walking zoo through the city streets (which does keep those streets much safer for the peasants and taxmen!), Cultists will patrol creature dens and enchant any charmable monster that emerges. | |

Octopath Traveler has H'aanit, who is capable of capturing monsters that she can then summon in battle (for a limited number of times) to utilize their various attacks or magic. When she uses the Provoke Path Action to initiate combat with NPCs, instead of fighting them herself like Olberic, the monsters she captured do the fighting for her. Story-wise, she seems to have at least some ability to speak with and understand the beasts she's tamed. She talks to her pet snow leopard Linde quite often, and though the conversations are naturally one-sided to the audience and her human party members, the two of them seem to communicate with each other just fine. Her inability to understand the final boss of her route in any way is even foreshadowing that it's not a beast like they believed but used to be a person. The sequel, Octopath Traveler II has the beastling Ochette, who, like H'aanit, is capable of capturing monsters that can be summoned in battle (though unlike H'aanit, she can summon hers an infinite number of times). She may also prepare captured monsters into foods that have various effects like healing or buffing. She, too, can Provoke NPCs into battle using her captured monsters. Unlike H'aanit, Ochette has two possible animal companions to choose from at the start of her tale, the physically-inclined jackal Akala or the magically-inclined owl Mahina, and while she can understand what animals are saying similarly to H'aanit, her own animal companions are fully capable of talking. |

City of Heroes had the Mastermind class, capable of calling upon a number of controllable minions. Normally, they tended to be closer to The Minion Master territory, but an update added an actual Beast Mastery set to the game, allowing them to summon wolves (regular and dire) and lionesses, along with using birds and insects to attack. In addition, the Dark Control set for Controllers and Dominators had a wolf made of darkness as its pet. |

Transformers: Soundwave. One of his most distinguishing traits is the menagerie of loyal animal (and two humanoid) robots that he can release from the tape compartment that makes up his chest. Of course, they're fully sentient Cybertronians themselves who serve Soundwave out of loyalty, not because he's tamed them. Occasionally his Autobot counterpart, Blaster, has his own set of tape-bots as well. |

Used in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, where the Pokémon Trainer is the only character to stand in the background while his Mons are the ones who do the fighting. He has Squirtle, Ivysaur, and Charizard, but can only use one at a time. The Trainer character is a little bizarre since Pikachu and Jigglypuff are also playable characters, and have been since the first installment, but they don't have a Trainer controlling them; he seems to have been added to get a few more Pokémon in without taking up too many character slots. | |

In Age of Empires III, European explorers can get a canine companion that follows them around and helps them fight. Native Warchiefs take it to another level. They can train animals and convert treasure guardians, which frequently results in the warchief being followed around by a menagerie of jaguars, wolves, and bears. |
