Beast Master Features
Primal Companion
Level 3You can summon the primal beast that is tied to your soul. As an action, you can summon or dismiss a Primal Beast that appears in an unoccupied space you can see within 30 feet of you. When you summon your Primal Beast, choose one of the following options for what appears: a beast that normally has a Challenge rating of 1 or lower, or a dinosaur with a Challenge rating of 3 or lower. On your turn, you can use a Bonus Action to command the beast to take the Dash, Disengage, or Dodge action.
Exceptional Training
Level 7You can use a Bonus Action on your turn to command the Primal Beast to take the Attack action. You can also use a Bonus Action to command it to take the Dodge action.
Bestial Fury
Level 11When you command the beast to take the Attack action, it can make two attacks as part of the action.
Share Spells
Level 15When you cast a spell that targets only you and allows you to form a bond with an object or another creature (for example, Magic Weapon), you can extend the spell to your Primal Beast if the beast is within 30 feet of you and the spell doesn't have a range of Self.
