Distinguished Master is a term used by the Assamite scholars to describe those among their ranks that have considerable knowledge, far above the average master.
Overview[]
A distinguished master has proven that she is capable of more than overspecialization by extending her expertise outside of her primary area of focus. For blood magicians, this entails full mastery of two Assamite Sorcery paths (the primary path and one other, each at Level Five). For more traditional scholars, the requirement involves comprehensive knowledge of both the primary area of study and one related but independent field (two Abilities related to the character’s primary area of study with a rating of 5 in each, preferably with several supplementary ones with scores of 3 or better).
