Aspect Warrior (Summoner/Monk)

It is not surprising that most summoners possess an affinity for conjuration magic. However, there are a select few who direct their passion in a completely new direction. By training in the ascetic arts, a summoner retrains his mind in such a way as to allow him to tap an alternate source of power, a reservoir of mystic energy that allows him to employ the evolutions of his eidolon to alter or increase his skills in battle. Through strict mental discipline, the aspect warrior can bring his eidolons into existence by sheer force of will, forming it from the very energies that that fuel his mystic abilities. While aspect warriors are often misidentified as common summoners, those who do so quickly realize their mistake as the claws or teeth of these well disciplined warriors find their mark.
