Way of the Golden Ape

The sounds of combat raged around the monk, her vestments settled over her kneeling form. Her eyes closed, the surrounding noise fell away as a low hum filled her mind. A dull glow filled her hiding place, igniting into a rolling aura around her. Her war cry fills the cave as she leaps at the gnolls, each strike tossing their broken forms away from her spinning form. Golden light pours off of her as she wades through the enemy, breaking their lines.
