Weapon master

A weapon master was a fighter that had achieved mastery in the use of a single type of melee weapon.

Description
A weapon master sought to unite their weapon of choice with their body. By doing this, they aimed to use the weapon as naturally and without thought as any other limb.

Power
Like monks, red avengers, and master samurais, weapon masters used an esoteric force known as ki to increase their lethality in combat. Their main goal was to unite their weapons of choice with their bodies, making it entirely natural to use in any scenario. Individual weapon masters were often named for their weapons: for instance, a weapon master who used longswords would be a "longsword master", a warhammer wielder would be a "warhammer master", etc.

Abilities
Weapon masters selected one melee weapon type to use exclusively as their "weapon of choice". Their weapon master abilities only functioned while wielding a masterwork weapon of that type. Once per day, a weapon master was able to choose to make a special attack with their weapon of choice. If this attack hit, it automatically inflicted the highest possible amount of damage. More advanced weapon masters could do this more than once a day. Becoming more experienced, weapon masters could focus ki to improve their chance of landing a critical blow.

As well as dealing more damage, weapon masters were more accurate at striking targets, especially if the targets were retreating. Those who were close to attaining true mastery over their weapon could becomes much faster at utilizing whirlwind attacks. As such, these masters could deal a lot more damage in a shorter amount of time.
