An Extension of my Body

Your martial training gives you a more intimate connection to the weapons you wield, gaining the following benefits:

• Increase your Strength or Dexterity score by 1, to a maximum of 20.
• You gain proficiency in any two weapons of your choice.  Each of these weapons can be any simple or martial weapon that lacks the heavy and special properties. The longbow or a  firearm (if your DM allows firearms) is also a valid choice. Weapons of the chosen types are monk weapons for you.
• Once per turn, you can make an melee or ranged attack with a monk weapon in place of an unarmed strike. You add your ability modifier to the damage roll as you would normally to your unarmed strike.
