Base Class: Monk
In centuries long past, when magic flowed freely in the lands of Arcinturea, sorcerers, wizards, and other magic casters ran rampant, abusing their abilities and gifts to oppress those without. In order to combat these villains, the monastery of Wotuoca began to experiment with the flow of Ki in their current rituals. In their long search, they found a way to not only defend themselves, but to fight back. By manipulating their Ki in just the right way, they could mimic the properties of certain magics, allowing for them better chances against the magical menaces that plagued the lands. Despite the flow of magic dying out in Sudenland, the monastery's country of origin, the monks of the path still practice its arts, in case their abilities are ever needed again.

Weakness Transference
Upon reaching 17th level, you’ve gained the knowledge to manipulate your vulnerability into a strength. When you hit a creature with an unarmed strike, you can spend 3 Ki points to cause the creature to gain vulnerability to one damage type you are vulnerable to for 1 minute, or until the end of a turn in which it has taken damage of that type.
If a creature has resistance to the damage type you choose, this resistance is suppressed for 1 minute, rather than gaining vulnerability. A creature that is immune to the damage type you choose is unaffected. A creature who is affected by this feature cannot be affected by it again for 24 hours.
