Mercenary Beast Tamers

Beast Tamers are rare, skilled and deeply coveted individuals in the Dead Sands. Trained in the old ways by Sand Whisperers and desert vagrants they are able to shape the will of the Dead Sands’ beasts to their own liking - dominating their mind into servitude. Some Beast Tamers use older and arguably more brutal methods, using force and will to force the creature into servitude. But others, particularly those trained by Sand Whisperers, use magical abilities to bend the minds of the Dead Sands' beasts to their will - a significantly safer method.
Given the Carrion Kings’ fondness of said beasts and monsters, for both status and practical use, it is to no surprise then that Beast Tamers are widely sought after for employing. Under the service of a King, they will be tasked with seeking out and bringing back a particular creature for their lord and patron. These ‘hunts’ are long and dangerous, often forcing Beast Tamers to trek into the most dangerous and remote parts of the desert. They show no fear, however, as they are well-acquainted with the sands and know exactly what to do and where to look in order to survive. In times of war, Beast Tamers will often escort their beasts into battle, where they will use their skills to ensure that their pets will fight stronger and harder than they otherwise will - so that their efforts were not wasted.
