"From what Glen has told me, those following The Way of The Free Spirit are to act as if they are a torrent of vengeant wind. A gale so powerful that its very presence knocks those unfortunate enough into a quick, effortless submission. At least, that’s what they are told. The majority just like to run amok and break things. Damn kids."

                        - The Unknown Scholar, Leading professor of The Magic Tripiece at The Arkhollow Academy.

 Way of The Free Spirit monks possess a special insight when it comes to the world around them. While most see a simple tree, a Free Spirit monk would see opportunity. Perhaps it could be used for valuable high ground to gain a potentially lethal high kick? Maybe it leads into an open window of a high-security jail? Every piece of the world can be utilised in a useful way, it just requires a special sort of mind and a nimble enough body.

Monks of this monastery are more often found in urban environments, springing from rooftop to rooftop or balcony from balcony. Some, however, prefer the peacefulness of the dense woodland, perching among tree branches and vines. The Way of The Free Spirit is typically a journey of the self, constantly pushing your body's limits in order to reach its desired location, no matter where. Monks of this monastery are typically seen doing street art or dares in order to scrape in gold. A few, however, utilise their skills and resort to high stake cat burglary.

Whilst in Spirit Flow, when you make a melee attack, you can choose whether the target must succeed a DC 8+Proficiency bonus+Dexterity modifer strength saving throw or be pushed 5ft away. You can only do this to targets one size larger than you or smaller. If the target hits an object, they take bludegoning damage equal to your monk level. If the target hits another creature, they both take this damage.
