An elite bladesinger with the Great Master, Variant template applied to it. High elite bladesingers are elven champions who have reached the pinnacle of their bladesinging art, to the point where it is almost as natural as breathing. They exemplify the elegance and arcane power of elvenkind. Every movement they make is impossibly graceful and precise, and every attack is supercharged. Most warriors cannot lay a finger on a high elite bladesinger, much less stand against one with any hope of success.
