Monk Subclass

An elf wanders through the city, seeking the shapeshifting doppelganger she has come to kill. She sees her prey surrounded by illusory guards, disguised as a noble from a non-existent land. She approaches him, seeing right through his illusions and lies, and dispatches him with a single deadly punch to the back of his fragile skull.

A human calmly walks onto the battlefield, taking in his surroundings as a horde of goblinoids bears down on him. He calmly takes a single step forward before disappearing, suddenly appearing in their midst with an explosion of energy that sends goblinoid corpses flying in all directions.

As the massive black dragon approached her, the halfling smiled as she threw out her arm, and watched with calm satisfaction as the dragon collapsed in agony as he disintegrates, a single pure-black beam extending into his chest from the halfling's outstretched arm.

The Way of the Void is a path many monks refuse to walk, as it espouses action and death to one's foes rather than calm and thoughtfulness. Those few that choose to walk this path, however, can tap into the absolute nothingness that lies beyond the Outer Planes, able to manifest it in their blows and in their bodies, able to derive great power from it-at a cost, of course. Many a monk who followed the Way of the Void has been consumed-body, mind, and soul-by the power they wield, unable to harness and contain it within themselves, resulting in a great implosion that can, depending on the power of the monk, leave a crater ranging from a few miles in diameter to hundreds of miles wide. Those that manage to contain the power within themselves often go mad from the vast expanse of infinite nonexistence that they have witnessed, unable to comprehend the idea of true lack of existence. But such is the nature of the Void. You either control it, or are consumed by it. It is nonexistence, nothingness, and an infinite expanse of oblivion within which has never, cannot, and will never exist.
