Monk: Way of Tectonic Force V 2.0

## Way of Tectonic force

Developed by dwarves, goliaths, dragonborn, genasi, and minotaurs looking to take advantage of their natural strength and resilience. These monks have two areas of pride, the first is their ability to shrug off any blow, and the ability to hit back harder than they took.

strikes and Some believe that sometimes the easiest answers is sometimes the best. That instead of wearing somethingg down over time, that the bettter answer might be to apply as much force as possible and go through the obsticle in the way. This tradition looks at Mountains and stone and ubeives thhat While the mountains may oneday be worn away, that their resolute defiance of the world is the truly impressive act. These monks forgo the act of striking often for, striking with as much force as possible. And learning how to withstand any blow and shrug it off.

Monks of the Way of the Open Hand are the ultimate masters of martial arts combat, whether armed or unarmed. They learn techniques to push and trip their opponents, manipulate ki to heal damage to their bodies, and practice advanced meditation that can protect them from harm.

At 3rd level the monk has gotten use to their earthen core and developed a way to build on this technique. The monk is now able to make there skin harder than most stone. While *Stone Form* is active the monk gains the following effects:
- Resistance to nonmagical slashing, piercing, and bludgeoning damage.
- Advantage against being grappled, tripped, shoved, or forced to move.
- While grappling another creature your movement speed is not reduced.

*Stone form* lasts one minute, or until you end it as a free action. You can use Stone Form a number of times equal to your proficiency modifier before you must take a long rest

**At level 6** The monk can choose additional resistances equal to their Strength ability modifier.

**At level 11** The monk can choose additional resistances equal to their Wisdom ability modifier.

**At level 17** The monk can choose additional resistances equal to their Constitution modifier

### Stonefist Technique
At level 3 The monk has discovered a few smaller tricks with their *Earthen Core*. While *Stone Form* is active or by spending 2 Ki point the monk covers theirs arms and legs  in a localized *Stone Form* and gains the following for 10 minutes:
- All of your unarmed strikes gain the siege property *(your attacks deal double damage to objects, structures, and creatures of the construct type)*.
- You gain a climbing speed equal to your walking speed, even on sheer surfaces. During this time, you have advantage on Strength (*Athletics*) checks you make to climb.

### Unwaivering Foundation
At 6th level with time and effort the monk has adopted the resilience of mountains. Learning how to stand against what others run and scramble from. In some instances causing their stone form to erupt from them harder than steel for mere moments. Whenever a monk feature or saving throw requires Dexterity, Constitution can be used instead. When you do this if the monk does not have proficiency in Constitution, they can instead roll a martial arts die and use half rounded down. (Min 1).

### Cataclysm strike

At Level 11 these monks learned how earthquakes and volcanoes occur, more importantly they know how to replicate this release of power through their own body. After making an unarmed strike but before the the DM says if the attack hits or not. The monk can then choose to forgo any number of unarmed strikes that they can make this turn at this. If the Unarmed strike hits, calculate damage as normal but multiply the total by number of unarmed strikes forgone then roll 3 additional martial arts die for each attack forgone.

This feature can be used a number of times equal to the monks wisdom modifier, and regain on a long rest.

level 6) Stone Hand Technique: When you successfully shove or trip an enemy, you deal damage equal to your Martial Arts die. You count as one size larger for the purpose of shoving or tripping enemy as well as being shoved or tripped yourself.

Grounded Stance

Level 7) Whenever you would make a dexterity save, make a con save instead. You gain proficency in con saves.

level 11) Unstoppable Force: when you shove an enemy, you can decide to shove them a length up to five times your prof. modifier. The target can take a new Strength (Athletics) or Dexterity (Acrobatics) check against the inital value of your Strength (Athletics) check every 5 feet.

Level 17) Will of Stone: Other creatures provoke an opportunity attack from you when they enter your reach. When you make an attack of opportunity, you can instead opt to shove or trip action them.

its probably still too strong, but its more reasonable now, dealing 1 more damage than the standard monk, is arguably a tiny bit less mad, has some great shoving/tripping options and a pretty nice defensive suit.
