Base Class: Monk
Monks who follow the way of fury are warrior monks - also referred to as
Baoli, they are religious soldiers who protect large monasteries. Unlike
shamans, Baoli are more militant than holy, and receive very little religious
instruction. Instead they are trained in the art of fighting.
Brutal, reckless, and fueled by a bloody Ki frenzy, Baoli are feared
throughout the land. Much like samurai, Baoli serve a master whom they
obey without question.
Ki Frenzy
Starting when you choose this tradition at 3rd level, you gain the ability to
focus your Ki power into a frenzy of berserk energy, provided that you ar-
en’t wearing armor or using a shield. It empowers you with supernatural
combat skills.
If you are able to cast spells, you can’t cast them or concentrate on them
while in Ki frenzy.
You can spend 2 Ki and use a bonus action to enter your Ki frenzy,
which lasts for 1 minute. It ends early if you are incapacitated, if you don
armor or a shield, or if you haven’t attacked a hostile creature since your
last turn or taken damage since then. You can also end your Ki frenzy as a
bonus action.
While your Ki frenzy is active, you gain the following benefits:
• Your walking speed increases by 10 feet.
• You have advantage on Dexterity checks and Dexterity saving
throws.
• All physical damage you take, both magical and nonmagical, is
reduced by an amount equal to your Wisdom modifier.
• You have advantage on melee attack rolls using Dexterity, but
attack rolls against you also have advantage.
You can use this feature twice. You regain all expended uses of it when
you finish a long rest.

al damage with every successful melee attack.
