Base Class: Monk
Monks of the Winter's Fist learn to move and act the way winter does, cold and harsh, powerful, beautiful. As a monk of the Winter's Fist you will be able to manipulate ice and snow, even the cold wind around you. You will become a force of winter, the embodiment of cold.
Frozen Claws
Starting when you choose this tradition at 3rd level, your cold nature allows you to encase your arms, and any weapon you are holding, in a thin layer of ice. When you reduce a creature within 10 feet of you to 0 hit points, you gain an added cold damage bonus to damage rolls equal to your Wisdom modifier + your monk level (minimum of 1).
Arcane Winter
At 6th level, you have become in tune with winter, and ice encases your arms and you can cast the spell Freezing Sphere
Crystalline Parallel
Starting at 17th level, as an action, you spend 3 ki points, and an exact duplicate of yourself made of ice is created. Your copy has all ki points and all same abilities as you do. You can make this copy up to one size larger or two sizes smaller, and can use a bonus action to see through and control this clone. When not controlled, the clone acts independently at your instructions. When controlling the clone, the clone will inhabit your body and continue whatever it was you were doing. You can use this once per long rest.
Frozen Respite
Beginning at 17th level, when you are reduced to 0 HP, you can expend 3 ki points to enter a frozen stasis, where your body becomes encased in ice and you cannot take damage or healing until you release the ice. This iceberg cannot be destroyed by any means unless a spell of 9th level or higher is used. This can only be used once per two days, and lasts for as long as the caster permits it.
