Monastic Tradition: Way of the Vengeful Flame
This is a monastic tradition that was made specifically for a monk in my Wildemount campaign that I DM. Added on to the features of the monk class as a tradition for your monk to follow. The core concept is the idea of loss and pain stemming from the burns of fire in the past. Because of one's scars¸ they become stronger. For people who want to play a fire bending monk without many of the hurdles of the four elements tradition. This is influenced by the Paladin divine smite ability¸ as well as a theme of the ki of powerful elements like fire. In the future¸ I will release an updated version of this monastic tradition¸ one where it has options of different damage types such as cold¸ lightning¸ etc.... See this in action on youtube as well! My friend and I have just started Fantasy Academy¸ and this subclass will be tested and probably tweaked throughout the campaign. I'll have updates eventually. I'm still new and learning a lot¸ but I wanted to put my hat in the ring for the first time to hopefully get feedback. Right now I am going back and forth on 2 ki points for the fire fist ability¸ it may change to 3 if I feel they are too powerful¸ or the damage may be cut to 2 per hit or some change like that. Just food for thought and something to think about. I hope you enjoy!
