Way of the Frozen Fist

Monks who study the way of the frozen fist are some of the most deadliest fighter in the known world. Using the temperature of ice to freeze their opponents in an instant before they can even attack. They train in the deadly cold of the elemental plane of ice before becoming one with their powers.

Cold fist techniques

When you choose this subclass at 3rd level the cold fist unlocks your true power.

• using a ki point you encase your fits in ice. Your unarmed strikes deal cold damage as well as bludgeoning lasting 1 minute. The cold damage it deals is equal to your martial arts die. 
• You can now spend a ki point and cast the [spell[frostbite[/spell] cantrip.

• You can shape ice to your benefit. You choose an area of ice that you can see within range(30ft) and that fits within a 5-foot cube. You manipulate it in one of the following ways:

  • You instantaneously move or otherwise change the flow of the ice as you direct, up to 5 feet in any direction. This movement doesn’t have enough force to cause damage.

  • You cause the ice to form into simple shapes and animate at your direction. This change lasts for 1 hour.

  • You change the ice's color or opacity. The ice must be changed in the same way throughout. This change lasts for 1 hour.

  • You unfreeze the ice, provided that there are no creatures in it. The water refreezes in 1 hour.

  If you use this ability multiple times, you can have no more than two of its non-instantaneous effects active at a time, and you can dismiss such an effect as an action.

Ice Barrier

Your body has become as strong as ice. you may use a ki points and cast armor of agathys at 3rd level.

On a success they take 10d10 cold damage.
