Monk
Base Class: Monk

Monks who follow the Way of the Saiyan are practitioners of a martial tradition deeply rooted in the legendary tales of Saiyan warriors. These monks have unlocked the latent power within themselves, allowing them to channel their ki energy to achieve incredible feats of strength, speed, and agility.

The path of the Saiyan is one of disciplined training and unyielding determination. Through rigorous physical and mental exercises, practitioners of this path tap into their inner reserves of ki, harnessing it to enhance their martial prowess to superhuman levels. By embracing their Saiyan heritage, these monks unlock transformative states that push their abilities beyond the limits of mortal capability.

At the core of the Way of the Saiyan is the Saiyan Transformation, a technique that allows monks to unlock their full potential. When entering this state, they experience a surge of power, enhancing their physical attributes and granting them temporary resilience in battle. As they progress along their path, Saiyan monks learn to further refine their transformation, mastering techniques that empower their strikes and enhance their evasive maneuvers.

For those who reach the pinnacle of the Saiyan path, the Ultimate Ascension awaits. In this transcendent state, monks become living embodiments of Saiyan power, capable of unleashing devastating attacks and shrugging off even the most formidable assaults with ease.

Yet, with great power comes great responsibility. The Way of the Saiyan teaches monks to wield their abilities with restraint and wisdom, lest they succumb to the primal urges of their Saiyan instincts. Those who walk this path must learn to balance their newfound power with humility and compassion, using their strength to protect the innocent and uphold justice in a world fraught with danger.

As a practitioner of the Way of the Saiyan, one becomes a living testament to the indomitable spirit of the Saiyan warriors, forging a legacy of courage and heroism that echoes through the ages.

 
 
 

Super Saiyan

At 3rd level, you gain the ability to tap into your Saiyan heritage and unleash your true power through transformation. As a bonus action, you can enter a state called Super Saiyan. Your hair gains a golden hue and your eyes turn a bright blue. An aura of golden energy surrounds you. While transformed, you gain the following benefits:

  • Your Dexterity score increases by 2 (this can go beyond 20), and your movement speed increases by 10 feet.

Transcendent Strike

Starting at 6th level, your strikes become infused with the power of your Saiyan transformation. Once per turn when you hit a target with an unarmed strike while transformed, you can choose to deal extra damage equal to your Martial Arts die. Additionally, your unarmed strikes count as magical for the purpose of overcoming resistance and immunity to nonmagical attacks and damage.

Ascended Super Saiyan

At 11th level, you gain the ability to push your Saiyan transformation beyond its limits for a brief moment. As a bonus action, you can expend 3 ki points to enter an Ascended Super Saiyan state. While in this state, you gain the following benefits:

  • You gain resistance to bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage.
  • Your unarmed strikes score a critical hit on a roll of 19 or 20 on the d20.

This state lasts for 1 minute or until you end it early as a bonus action. Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a short or long rest.

Ultimate Ascended Saiyan

At 17th level, you achieve the pinnacle of Saiyan power, transcending mortal limits. As a bonus action, you can enter your Ultimate Ascension. While in this form, you gain the following benefits:

  • Your Dexterity score increases by an additional 4 (this can go beyond 20), and your movement speed increases by an additional 20 feet.
  • Your unarmed strikes deal an additional 2d8 force damage.
  • You gain resistance to all damage types.

Ki Wave Cannon

At 11th level, you learn to project your ki outward as a lethal weapon. As an action, you can spend 4 ki points to unleash a blast of ki energy in a 60-foot line that is 5 feet wide. Each creature in the line must make a Dexterity saving throw against your spell save DC (wisdom), taking 6d8 force damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. The damage increases by 1d8 for each additional ki point spent on this ability beyond the initial 4.
