Beastlords are the spiritual warriors of the primitive cultures of Norrath and Luclin. Like the Shaman of their peoples, the Beastlords have a close relationship with the spirit world and an uncanny affinity with the spirits of the animal kingdom. The Beastlord's fighting style is derived from tactics used by wild beasts thus they prefer to fight unarmed or with only small piercing weapons such as daggers which to the Beastlord represent claws and fangs. Beastlords are so closely attuned to the animal spirit world that they can befriend or control animals to serve them and fight along side them.
