Beast Trainer
You form a close bond with a beast companion and mold your fighting style around fighting in tandem with it. You gain special abilities that allow you to establish a closer bond with them. Fighting individually you are fairly weak, but together you can unleash powerful combo attacks.
Art by me!
1 - Technique Specialization (Magic)
You gain 2 technique points at level 1, then another point every 2 levels after. These technique points can be used on the shroomlette or earth mother tree.

1 - Beast Companion [companion]
You gain the service of a specific animal to aid you on your journey. It grows more powerful as you do. More rules on beast companions in the beast companion section.
1 - Tandem Strike
When you take the attack action, your beast companion can also use its attack action to attack the same creature. You both get +2 to your attack. This bonus also applies if you make an AoO against the same creature. This attack counts as one attack for the purposes of applying DR.
When you use this feature and one strike is enough to defeat the creature, the other is consumed and you cannot use your companion's strike on another.
