Prerequisite: Dexterity 13 or higher, Gith (githzerai)
You have been trained in the elite monastic schools of the Githzerai. You gain the following two features to represent your training as a monk:
- Your unarmed strikes deal damage of one higher dice than they would otherwise (for example, if your unarmed strikes deal 1 damage, they deal 1d4 damage with this feat, and if they deal 1d8 damage, they deal 1d10 damage with this feat). You can use Dexterity instead of Strength for the attack and damage rolls of your unarmed strikes.
- You gain one additional ki point. If you do not know any ki features, you learn the Flurry of Blows feature. When you reach fifth level, you learn the Patient Defense feature, and when you reach seventh level, you learn the Step of the Wind feature. The rules for ki and these ki features are detailed in the Monk class description.
Author's Note: The feat homebrewing on D&D Beyond don't currently allow Gith prerequisites, so in the builder you can select this feat without being a githzerai. I will update it when this is fixed.

Posted Nov 8, 2019I like the concept but this is way imbalanced for a monk and unimpressive for most other classes. Would combine well with tavern brawler though.

Posted Nov 10, 2019I know, I wrote this ages ago (as in, just after gith were released as a race) and it only recently got published. There are many balance changes I would make now I’m a more experienced homebrewer.
