Base Class: Monk
Grandmaster Yu Jong‘s temple is located northeast of Silverymoon. The training at this temple is one of the most grueling training in all of Faerun. Exposure to the elements, sleep deprivation, and continual sparring with stone constructs is only the tip of the iceberg for initiates.
The Way of Ki Reinforcement is a tradition that practitioners use ki to enhance their physical abilities temporary. One can increase striking damage, movement speed, or perception beyond reasoning. But pushing oneself to the up most limits is a double edged sword and causes temporary disabilities.
Reinforcement Technique
Starting when you choose this tradition at 3rd level, you can manipulate your ki to reinforce your fist for harder bludgeoning damage, fingers for a spear hand attack (piercing damage) or finger nails for a claw attack (slashing damage).
1 ki point to add one d4, 2 ki points to add one d6, or 3 Ki Points to add one d8 to attack.
Full Body reinforcement
At 6th level, ki fills your entire body, your speed is doubled, you gain a +2 bonus to AC, you have advantage on Dexterity Saving Throws, and you gain an additional action on each of your turns. That action can be used only to take the Attack (one weapon Attack only), Dash, Disengage, Hide, or Use an Object action. This ability can only be used once per long rest. (Temporary Haste lasts for 3 combat rounds)
After 18 seconds you can't move or take actions until after your next turn, as a wave of lethargy sweeps over it. Exhaustion last for 1 hour from levels 6-10, 30 min for levels 11-15, and 10 min for levels 15-20.
Ryūsui Seikūken

Additionally, other creatures have disadvantage on Attack rolls against the you for the duration. This ability can only be used once per long rest. (Foresight lasts for 3 combat rounds)
After the effect wears off you are enfeebled for the next 30 min. (You can't cast Spells, activate Magic Items, understand language, or communicate in any intelligible way. You can, however, identify friends, follow them, and even protect them)
From levels 15-20 debuff lasts 10 mins.
