Way of the Tiger's Claw

One of the Five Animals of martial arts, the Tiger’s Claw focuses on performing a large flurry of punches and kicks to overpower your opponent. The most strength based of the Five Animals, Tiger’s Claws use their ki to increase their physicality instead of manipulating their and others’ ki like other disciplines.Tiger’s Claws take strong stances which allow them to strike multiple times in rapid succession, each hit striking with greater efficacy and strength. A quick jab in the shoulder opens the target’s defenses for a sudden strike to the chest. With greater emphasis on physical strength than most disciplines, Tiger’s Claws spend their studies training before mental study, though the particularly advanced monks have grown their minds alongside their bodies.

Advanced Flurry

Starting at 3rd level, your strikes keep your enemies on the back-foot, with incredible speed and force. When you hit a creature with an unarmed strike, your subsequent attacks gain a +1 to damage. This bonus stacks additively with itself, dealing up to your proficiency bonus as bonus damage. This bonus resets at the end of your turn.

Debilitating Pummel

Starting from 3rd level, you have adapted your knowledge to aid you further in battle. Once per turn, when you hit a creature with two unarmed strikes in one round, you can spend 1 ki point to force the target to make a Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, the target has disadvantage on its next attack roll and you can immediately make an unarmed strike on the target.

Forceful Thrust

From 6th level, you can fill your strikes with powerful ki force. Once per turn, when you hit a creature with an unarmed strike you can spend 2 ki points to deal bonus force damage and cause the target to make a Dexterity saving throw or be knocked back 5ft and fall prone. The bonus force damage equals your martial arts die.

Furthered Flurry

Starting at 11th level, when you spend a ki point to use your Flurry of Blows, you can spend an extra ki point to make an additional attack as part of the Flurry of Blows action.

Tiger's Patience

From 17th level, your incredible, forceful flurry leaves your foes bewildered, granting you some breathing space. If you hit a creature 6 times in one turn you briefly enter a recovery stance, regaining hit points equal to half your Monk level and 1 ki point.
