Base Class: Monk
Monks who train in the Way of the Crystal Mind believe that gems and crystals are the purest form of Ki and magical energy, and seek to purify themselves with it. Focusing their Ki through enhancers made of gem shards, they are able to sense magic in the air and cause your Ki to physically manifest.
Arcane Eye
At 3rd level, you have been fully trained in ways to deal with magic by detecting it and absorbing it. You gain the following benefits:
- You gain proficiency in Arcana if you don't already have it.
- You can cast Detect Magic at will. (You use Wisdom for your Spell Agility Score.)
- Once per long rest, you can cast either Counterspell or Dispel Magic. (You use Wisdom for your Spell Agility Score.)
Diamond Fists
At 6th level, you have perfected the purest form of combat. Your first are as sharp as blades and as hard as stone. When you hit an enemy with your Fury of Blows, you can choose to spend a Ki point to transfer your magical energy into them. The target must succeed a DC 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Wisdom modifier Wisdom saving throw or take 2 points of your Martial Die of Force damage and are launched 10 feet away from you on a failed save, and half as much damage and are not pushed away on a successful save.
Geode Heart
At 11th level, your inner form has been hardened and purified. Your Ki itself has been honed and strengthened. You gain the following benefits:
- Your Constitution score goes up by 2, to a maximum of 20
- When you are hit with a ranged spell that targets you and no one else, you can use your reaction to spend as many Ki points as you want. For each Ki point used, you gain 1 HP and roll one of your Martial Die. You subtract the dice total from the damage of the spell. If you reduce the damage to 0, you can spend two additional Ki points to reflect the spell, making an attack with that spell using Wisdom modifier as your Spellcasting modifier.
Crystal Minded
At 17th level, you have become a pure being. The impurities of the world can no longer harm you as your Ki manifest in a physical form as crystals. You gain the following benefits:
- You are immune to Psychic damage as long as you have 3 Ki points left
- Your AC increases by 3 as long as you have at least 5 Ki points left.
- You have advantage on all Saving Throws you have a +8 or higher in as long as you have 8 Ki points left.
