Directs the battle with fear and mesmerism
All the battlefield's a stage, and Ringmaster is a gleeful director. Controlling fights with a showman's flair, Ringmaster tames enemies with his fearsome whip and endless knives, ushers allies away from danger with his cunning escape act, and always draws a crowd to unwillingly witness the wonders of his mesmerizing wheel.
