+====== Master Paths ======
+Upon reaching level 7, each member of the group chooses a master path. Master paths use similar groupings to those of expert paths but offer further specialization. The paths of arms let you focus on specific weapons and fighting styles. The paths of the gods reward constant service to a particular deity. The paths of magic let you master a particular tradition. And the paths of prowess do a little bit of everything. You can choose any master path you like. Again, though, portraying your character can be easier when your path choice reflects past events and experiences in the game.
+===== Master Paths of Arms =====
+These paths enable specialization in fighting styles and weapons.
