#### Monk: ### Way of the Beast The way of the beast is the way of nature. Ferocious, unbridled and joyful. Bestial monks often come from the wilds, raised and loved by the denizens of the forest. To them, ki is the flow of life through the natural world, from the joy and necessity of the hunt, to the unconditional and unsophisticated bond of the pack. Bestial monks often find themselves as Adventurers, as the wanderlust and the thrill of the hunt is satiated in chasing down dragons and facing down world-ending threats. ##### Way of the Beast Features | Monk Level | Features | |:----:|:---------------------------------------| | 3rd | Naturalist, Rush of the hunt | | 6th | Primal roar, Woodsman | | 11th | Bestial aspect | | 17th | Wild heart |
