Monk
Base Class: Monk

Monks of the Blurred step seek to sharpen their speed to perfection while enhancing their quickness of thought. Those who master this tradition see the world around them in slow motion, giving their minds the time to notice each and every detail of their surroundings. In combat, these monks are greatly feared. Their strikes are like that of lightning. When they move, it is as if they vanish and appear somewhere else.

 

Blurred Movement

Starting when you choose this tradition at 3rd level, the speed of your strikes imbues them with intense force. When you hit with an unarmed strike, the target is pushed 10 feet away from you. In addition, your reflexes have become sharpened to the point of reacting with superhuman speed. As a reaction when a hostile creature you can see  makes an attack roll, you can use your reaction to move up to half your speed toward that creature and make an unarmed strike attack.

Slowed Reality

At 6th level, you can use the ki around you to manipulate the fabric of time. By spending 3 ki points, you can cast haste or slow.

Lightning Step

Starting at 11th level, you have enhanced your speed to the point that physical obstacles no longer hinder your speed. Difficult terrain no longer costs you extra movement. In addition, when you take the dash action, you gain the following benefits:

  • Opportunity attacks you provoke while moving are rolled with disadvantage
  • You can move through the space of Medium or smaller creature while moving. When you do so, that creature is knocked prone.
  • When you end your movement within 5 feet of a hostile creature, the creature takes lightning damage equal to your proficiency bonus.

Frozen Vision

At 17th level, your body and mind have been quickened to the point that you can briefly stop the flow of time. By spending 7 ki points, you can cast time stop.
