Falconer
- "Let me introduce you to my little friend."
Not all warriors were meant for the front-lines, or even to necessarily train themselves in weaponry. For as long as most can remember, the various humanoid races have trained animals for a variety of purposes: pack animals, work animals, and hunting animals. Of these, those of the last category are the most readily adapted to combat, a notion that some take to with gusto.
Typically using light armor and relatively simple weapons, the falconer focuses her martial training not just on herself, but also on her companion. While the profession began with falcons - hence the name - not all falconers use birds of prey; others use wolves, bears, or even more exotic animals. Regardless, falconers often raise their animal companion from birth, strengthening the connection between trainer and animal, giving them incredible knowledge of their animal's behaviors and allowing them to push them far beyond the limits of what is normal for their kind.
Such training, however, takes time, and the falconer trades her own expertise in combat in exchange for improving that of her companion. While she does not ignore her own prowess entirely, it does leave her at a disadvantage compared to other warriors. On the other hand, falconers bring not just themselves, but their companion to the fray, allowing them to effectively function in two places at once.
Unlike trainers, falconers use no Force to compel their companion to obey, nor do they take advantage of outside means to train and improve their companion's abilities. Falconers rely instead entirely on their own skill and the skills of their companions, learning to work in tandem with their companion on a level that seems instinctual.
