How to get Aspiring Blademaster
- Gain: Aspiring Blademaster is granted by combat-heavy events rather than a perk. The Marshal's Train Commanders council task can make one of your commanders or knights a Blademaster, and duel, sparring and martial events can grant it to you. Once you have it, tournament contests and further duels add experience: Blademaster at 50 and Legendary Blademaster at 100.
- Remove or lose: It stays once gained.
Set your Marshal to Train Commanders to grow Blademasters among your knights.
For your own character, take the Martial lifestyle (Chivalry suits it), accept duels and sparring events, and enter tournament contests once you have the trait to push its experience.
