Base Class: Monk
The Way of The Nimble Reflex is the study of the most efficient movement of body in combat. Deep knowledge and practice in the way of The Nimble Reflex leads to adept dodges and quick movements to heighten any advantage in close combat.
Heighten Senses
You gain an advantage on initiative unless otherwise blinded, deafened, or incapacitated.
Artful Dodge
Starting at 3rd level, when an attacker that you can see hits you with an attack, you can use your reaction to halve the attack’s damage against you.
Bonus Proficiencies
When you choose this tradition at 3rd level, you gain proficiency in the Perception and Acrobatics skill if you don’t already have it. Your martial arts technique mixes combat training with the precision of a dancer and the anticipation of a fox.
Nimble Awareness
At level 6, you have become adept at enemy awareness and body control. You can add your proficiency bonus to your AC for 1 hour by using one (1) Ki point. You can also add your Wisdom modifier to your acrobatics check to avoid being grappled or trapped by ropes or nets.
Redirect Attack
At level 11 You can redirect an enemies missed attack to another creature near you as an reaction. The attack must have missed and the creature must be within 10 feet of you. The redirected attack behaves as normal attack.
Fearless Challenge
At level 11 Your training has made you fearless in challenging multiple opponents in battle. You can spend 1 Ki point to have all enemies within 30 feet of you focus on you for their attack. For one round, these enemies will have disadvantage attacking anyone but you.
Quick Reflex
At level 17, you can use three (3) ki point to have a reaction attack to all enemies attacking you for one round. The reaction provides an attack before the enemy attacks you. The reaction attack behaves as a normal attack.

Posted Jan 4, 2022Some cool stuff here.
Nimble Awareness What type of action is required to use this? Are you always able to add your wisdom modifier to your acrobatics check to avoid grappled or trapping or is this only in affect while the bonus AC for the hour is active?
Redirect Attack Ironically a homebrew Monk of my own has a similar ability. Behaving like a normal attack does that mean that you have to now roll to see if you hit with the missed attack? Do you roll the stats of the missed weapon/spell?
Fearless Challenge I think the ki cost should be increased to two instead of one, especially for a late level ability that has the potential to target every enemy.
Quick Reflex I love this ability. Do you still have your normal one reaction per round available for use? Also does this work on any attacks from each enemy or just the first attack from each enemy?
In any case I can see this working, best of luck perfecting it.
