The '''Monster Master''' (also known as Monster ''Masher'') is a vocation in ''[[Dragon Quest VI]]'' and ''[[Dragon Quest VII]]''. In the original version of ''VI'', having a master in the party increases the chances that a monster [[Monster recruitment|will join you upon its defeat]], however this function was dropped in the [[Nintendo DS]] remake in lieu of Slime Buddies. Monster Master is one of the prerequisites for the [[Ranger]] vocation (along with [[Merchant]] and [[Thief]]).

In ''VII'', the vocation will instead give players a greater chance to send defeated monsters off to [[The Haven|the Haven]], a wildlife preserve of sorts where monsters can interact with the party as NPCs. To become a Masher, characters need to master the [[Thief]] and [[Shepherd]] vocations..
