Base Class: Monk
The archetypal Bladedancer comes from a long line of Bladedancers or has learned their art since a young age.
Bladedancers are one with their weapons and can mentally control them. They combine flowing movements of body and blade into a deadly dance.
Bound Blade
Beginning when you choose this archetype at 3rd level, you can mentally bind a number of weapons equal to your Wisdom Modifier.
You can only bind one type of monk weapon from: Dagger, Handaxe, Sickle or Shortsword.
While you are bound to those weapons you can mentally control them within 5 feet of yourself.
When you attack you can choose to use one of your bound weapons to do so. You get +5 feet to your attack range with your bound weapons. You need a number of empty hands as if you where using the bound weapon when you make an attack with them. Rules for two-weapon fighting and other combat rules also apply to your bounded weapons.
Weapon Throw
Starting at 3rd level, instead of the unarmed attack of your Martial Arts you can when you use the Attack action with one of your bound weapons, you can throw one of your bound weapons at a target as if it had the thrown property(20/60).
You use your normal attack and damage modifier for the weapon. After the weapon hits or misses, it falls to the ground at the creatures spot or might be stuck in the enemy (DM's choice).
When you are within melee range for your bound weapons of one of your bound weapons on the ground or in an enemy you can us your bonus action to mentally retrieve it.
Blade Surfing
Starting at 7th level as an action you can start to surf on one of your bound weapons. While you surf on your bound weapon you get a flying speed equal to 10 times your Wisdom Modifier. Whenever you take damage while surfing, you have to make an athletics or acrobatics check equal to half the damage rounded up, minimum of 10 (equal to concentration for spellcasters).
The Weapon you ride on cannot be used to attack.
Blade Surge
Starting at 11th level you can use your action + bonus action spend 6 Ki Points to dash at an enemy, attacking him with all of your bound weapons.
When you take this action you can dash towards one enemy which is within your movement + melee range. This movement does not trigger attacks of opportunity. You then attack with all of your bound weapons (Versatile Weapons count as being used with one hand). Bound weapons previously thrown also fly towards the chosen enemy evading all obstacles along the way.
If you kill the enemy or crit with at least one attack you regain the spent Ki Points
Clarity of the Blade
Beginning at 17 level you can focus you mind for a limited time each day to reach greater hight of Wisdom.
As a bonus action: double your Wisdom Modifier (for the duration your minimum Wisdom Modifier is 2) and gain spectral bound blades equal to the increase for 10 Minutes.
Those blades count as +2 magic Weapons of the type you have bound.
You have one use of this ability and it resets on a long rest
