Item Master
Japanese name	どうぐ使い
Rōmaji name	Dō gu tsukai
Gender	Male/Female
Game	Dragon Quest X

The Item Master is a vocation added to Dragon Quest X in the version 2.1 update. It is a class focused on using tamed monsters to assist it in battle, but themed around a mechanic maintaining a automaton instead of the typical beastmaster type seen in the series.

Description

The item master wears a gatsby cap with a set of visor goggles over the brim, and a mechanic's jumpsuit lined with pouches. Both garments use a vanilla and cream-orange pinwheel pattern, and the outfit is complimented with vermilion boots and gloves.

The item master is similar to the Monster Master in that it has a constant companion to aid it in battle, only it focuses exclusively on inorganic monsters. These come from the Material family and Machine family, giving them a more narrow focus but several options to choose from therein. Aside from the use of monster, the item master is an excellent support vocation that can contribute greatly in conflict even if their pet is incapacitated. With access to the best augmentative spells, the item master can give even the weakest party member a major tune up.

Appearances

Dragon Quest X

Item masters can equip Hammers, Spears, Bows, and Boomerangs, and small Shields, as well as use fisticuffs, each one with their own individual skill trees, and can wear lightweight metal armor in addition to clothing-type armour. Their exclusive skill tree is aptly called Item Master (アイテムマスター), and their Coup de Grâce is the Enhanced Gadget Type 0.
