Fashion your body, fashion your mind, and look good for the fans while you’re at it! Fame and fortune are fickle things – grasp them while you can!

Stardom

Show business is all about managing your image. You gain proficiency in the Performance skill, as well as in Disguise Kits. In addition, when you make a Charisma check, you can spend 1 ki point to add a roll of your Martial Arts dice to the roll.

Screeching Kiai

Flashy moves are a great way to attract attention and show the audience who the protagonist of the film is. Unfortunately, you’re just a martial artist, so you don’t have those. You can, however, scream really loudly. When you spend a ki point, you can loose a loud screech at a creature within 10 feet of yourself, making a Charisma (Performance) check against the target’s Wisdom (Insight) check. On a success, you gain temporary hit points equal to your Wisdom modifier (min: 1), and the target suffers disadvantage on its next attack roll against creatures other than yourself before the start of your next turn.

Sell It!

Who would ever want to watch someone who beats all their opponents in one punch? Making sure everyone knows your enemies are strong only makes it more impressive when you overcome them! When you are hit by an attack, you can use your reaction to move 5 feet in a direction of your choice. This movement doesn’t provoke opportunity attacks.

CUT!

Your special effects may be good, but you can’t let things get too far off-script! When a creature within 30 feet makes an attack roll, skill check, or saving throw, you can spend 1 ki point to force the creature to reroll the dice. You can use this feature after the dice is rolled, but before the effect is resolved.

Underdog

Everyone likes a good underdog story. The kind that can face the odds, no matter how stacked… and boy, will they be stacked! You no longer suffer disadvantage on attack rolls from being blinded, restrained, frightened, or poisoned.
