Beast Tamer

Beast tamers bring the wild to civilization, rearing and training creatures to follow their commands and perform flashy tricks that entertain audiences. The beast tamer typically fights alongside a trained animal ally of its level or lower, most likely a tiger.

Animal Trick [one-action] The beast tamer gains the support benefit appropriate to its trainedanimal companion. Unlike for an animal companion, this doesn't require the animal to use any of its actions. The benefit for a tiger is as follows: Until the start of the beast tamer's next turn, their Strikes that deal damage to a creature within the tiger's reach make the target off-guard until the end of the beast tamer's next turn.

Ethical Taming

Throughout the history of Golarion many entertainers thought very little about the conditions of the animals they kept. However, this is very rarely the case today. In fact, it is not uncommon that show animals are treated better than some of the performers. They are trained with positive reinforcement learning, and once safety can be assured, they live outside of a cage with the trainer themselves.

Performers Across Golarion

Some of Golarion's brightest stars are as much storymakers as storytellers.

Camilia Drannoch, Revolutionary: Camilia uses her powerful words to put an end to the Red Revolution, rid Galt of its final blades, and reestablish relations abroad.
The Circus of Wayward Wonders: Perhaps the most spectacular traveling show in the Inner Sea, the Circus of Wayward Wonders and its Sideshow of Everyday Marvels offers truly outstanding acts for their audiences.
Janatimo, Speaker of the World's Tales: Janatimo, an aiuvarin bard at the Magaambya, leads the Uzunjati, scholars and teachers tasked with spreading knowledge to improve the world.

The Colleges Of Humor

Throughout Golarion there are pockets of jesters and jokesters that form groups they call colleges of humor. While they have no formal name or location, these colleges are universally recognized for producing excellent comedy. Those who train with colleges often specialize in one of many forms of humor. Some of the most common specialize include, but are not limited to: slapstick, romantic humor, high comedy, situational comedy, parody, surrealism, farce, wordplay, and observational humor.
