Way of Self-Objectification

Monks who follow the Way of Self-Objectification see their own bodies as weapons to be trained, displayed, and weaponized—not just through martial discipline, but through extreme posing, showmanship, and ridiculously impractical attacks. Whether striking with their hips, flexing to deflect spells, or distracting foes with sheer audacity, these monks become living spectacles of sensual absurdity.

Bodacious Blow

When you choose this tradition at 3rd level, you can use your body to strike in unorthodox ways.

• When you make an unarmed strike, you can choose to use a Bodacious Blow, using your butt, chest, or thighs (player choice) to deal bludgeoning damage equal to your Martial Arts die + your Charisma modifier instead of Dexterity.

• On a hit, the target must make a Strength saving throw (DC = 8 + your Proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier) or be knocked back 10 feet.

• You may use this feature a number of times equal to your Proficiency bonus, regaining all uses on a long rest.

Fanservice Focus

At 6th level, you’ve mastered the art of turning your aura into a dazzling display.

• As a bonus action, you may spend 1 ki point to enter a Fanservice Focus for 1 minute. While in this state:

  • Attack rolls against you have disadvantage if the attacker can see you and is not blinded.

  • You can use your Charisma modifier in place of Dexterity or Wisdom for Monk features like AC, Stunning Strike DCs, and Monk weapon attack rolls.

  • You glow with sparkles and wind inexplicably blows through your hair.

Clash of Curves

Starting at level 11, your strikes reverberate with the power of raw sensuality.

• When a creature misses you with a melee attack, you can use your reaction and spend 1 ki point to attempt a counterattack with your body.

• Make an unarmed strike using your Bodacious Blow. On a hit, the target is either:

  • Knocked prone, or

  • Sent flying 15 feet and takes extra force damage equal to your Martial Arts die.

• If the attack is a critical hit, your opponent is also stunned until the end of your next turn.

Objectify This!

At 17th level, you've trained your body—and your sense of timing—to unleash an attack so devastating it defies reason and logic.

• As an action, you may spend 3 ki points to unleash your Ultimate Technique. Choose a number of creatures you can see within 20 feet equal to your Charisma modifier. Each target must make a Constitution Saving Throw (DC = 8 + Proficiency + Charisma mod).

  • On a failed save, they are blinded, prone, and incapacitated until the end of your next turn, overwhelmed by the sheer majesty of your finishing pose.

  • On a successful save, they take force damage equal to 4 martial arts dice, but suffer no status effect.

After using this feature, you must complete a long rest before using it again.
