Way of the Frozen Mountain

One's soul is bound in frost, a calm wind echoing through the mind. Monks who follow this path value wisdom, patience and empathy. Whilst these monks tend to be peaceful, they can invoke the very wrath of the mountains should one transgress them. The quarterstaff is the most valued weapon to these monks, for it is a symbol of balance between the peace within and the war outside. Patient training with the cold winds conditions one to not only channel the cold as a weapon, but to use it as a shield and even a guide.

Starting at 3rd level, this unique ki allows you to utilize the power of the mountains to defend yourself.
