Way of Alacrity

Those who follow the Way of Alacrity are free souls, bound to nothing but the restraints of time. Compared to more traditional monks, who value silent contemplation and study, these monks believe that to move is to live, and that entropy is the greatest enemy man will ever face. Many are dancers, travelers, athletes or couriers, those focused on quick and deft movements.

Your jump distance is tripled, and you only need to move 5 feet before a long or high jump.

When you gain the Slow Fall feature, you may use this ability as part of the same reaction.

 

Level 3: Fleeting Strikes

3rd level feature Way of Alacrity

Starting when you choose this tradition at 3rd level, your steps, blows, and jumps all flow into each other, making combat and movement a deadly dance and performance of speed and strikes.

• Fight. Whenever a creature misses an attack roll against you or an ally within 5 feet of you, you can expend a focus point to make an unarmed strike with advantage. If this attack hits, you gain a bonus to damage equal to one roll of your Martial Arts die.

• Flight. Whenever a creature stops or ends its turn within 5 feet of you, you can expend a focus to move up to half your movement speed in any direction without provoking oppurtunity attacks.

• Freeze. Whenever you are the target of an attack roll or saving throw, you can expend a focus point to temporarily remove all the kinetic energy in your body.
