Way of the Thrummer
Monks that follow the way of the Thrummer embrace the
slow meandering way of the Log Thrummers, mysterious
intelligent plants that produce a mystical type of honey and
have dominion over bees. These monks embrace the slow life
with these creatures, learning to master their use of insects
and rooting themselves in for a powerful defense.

Bee's Stinger

Beginning when you choose this monastic tradition at 3rd
level your fingers become harder and able to pierce steel and
flesh alike. When you make an unarmed attack, you can
choose to deal piercing damage rather than bludgeoning.
When you deal piercing damage in this way, you may choose
to deal only 1 piercing to deal an additional amount of poison
damage equal to your martial arts die plus your dexterity or
strength modifier.

Form of the Thrummer

Also at 3rd level, your body begins to resemble the mystical
creatures more. You become immune to poison damage and
resistance to radiant. As an action, you can choose to force
bark to grow over your flesh, granting you a bonus to your AC
equal to one half your proficiency bonus, but your speed is
reduced by 15 feet. This form lasts for 1 minute or until you
end it as a bonus action. When the form ends, each creature
within 10 feet of you must make a Dexterity saving throw,
taking bludgeoning damage equal to 2 times your martial arts
die as hardened wood flies from your body. Once you use this
trait, you cannot use it again until you finish a short or long
rest.

Howler's Protection

Starting when you reach 6th level, you learn to emulate the
protective abilities of your master's howling minions. As a
reaction to you or a creature you can see within 15 feet of you
being hit by an attack that targets only that creature and does
not deal fire damage, you can halve the damage as a spectral
log howler appears, knocking the attack aside. You can use
this ability a number of times equal to your Wisdom modifier,
regaining expended uses when you finish a short or long rest.

Thrummer Photosynthesis

Beginning at 11th level, you become immune to radiant
damage and may expend a ki point as a reaction to absorb the
light, healing for half the damage you would have taken.
While using Form of the Thrummer, you instead gain the full
amount you would have taken.

Living Hive

Starting when you reach 17th level, you embody the hive
aspect of the thrummers. Bees begin burrowing into your
skin and defend you from attack. Whenever a creature comes
within 5 feet of you for the first time on each turn, or they
begin their turn there, they immediately take poison damage
equal to your martial arts die. In addition, when a creature
hits you with an attack from within 10 feet of you, you can
use your reaction to send bees after them. They must make a
Dexterity saving throw, taking 2d4 piercing damage and an
additional 2d10 poison damage on a failed saving throw, or
half as much on a success.

Way of the Centered Breath
The Centered Breath tradition emphasizes honing
your
mental awareness to better harness psionic
powers. This
tradition teaches that only by controlling yourself can you
control your environment. The
tradition's adherents are
typically ascetics, whose
monasteries stand in quiet corners
ofthe world where
the monks can train and study without
distraction. In
some ofthese monasteries, speech is forbidden
except
for one hour each day.

Centered Flurry of Blows

Beginning when you join this way at 3rd level, you learn to
imbue forceful psionic power into your fists. When you use
your flurry of blows feature, you can use your Wisdom
modifier instead of your Strength or Dexterity for attack and
damage rolls. In addition, each time you hit a creature with it,
you can move it up to 5 feet in any direction of your choice, so
long as it does not move it into harmful or difficult terrain.
You may move 5 feet each time you move the target, moving
into the space they had occupied without provoking attacks of
opportunity.

Dancing Cobra

Also at 3rd level, any time a creature makes an attack of
opportunity against you, you can use a reaction to add 3 to
your AC. If the attack misses, you can make an attack of
opportunity against that creature as well.

Five Storms

Beginning when you reach 6th level, you can channel your
inner psionic power and let it burst outward in a quick
succession of blows. As an action, you can launch an all out
attack. Make a melee weapon attack. Any creature of your
choice adjacent to you whose AC is beaten by your roll takes
bludgeoning damage equal to your martial arts die and
psychic damage equal to your wisdom modifier.

Drunken Monkey

Starting at 11th level, you are able to lurch and move your
body in unnatural ways, throwing your opponents off guard
and confusing them. When you use your flurry of blows, if
you landed all attacks against the target in a turn, you may
force the target to make a Wisdom saving throw. On a failure,
you move the creature 5 feet and it makes a melee weapon
attack against a creature of your choice as a free action.

Masterful Spiral

Beginning at 17th level, you have unlocked your full potential
and can fully make use of the masterful spiral stance. Your
melee reach increases by 5 feet and when you make a melee
weapon attack, you can choose to make the attack against all
adjacent enemies instead of one target. If you do, you do not
add your ability modifier to the damage.

Starting when you join this way at 3rd level, you learn to fill
your arms with psionic energy, increasing the power behind
your blows. When you use your flurry of blows feature, if you
use strength for the attack and damage rolls, you deal
additional damage equal to your proficiency bonus.

Crane's Wings

Also at 3rd level, you can use a bonus action to give yourself a
burst of great strength when you take the attack action on
your turn. Before you make an attack, you can make a long
jump as though you had a running start and a +5 bonus to
your Athletics. If you move at least 15 feet with this jump, you
deal an additional 1d6 damage if you hit.

Dragon's Tail

When you reach 6th level, you can sweep your arm out as
though it were a dragon's tail. When you take the attack
action, you can use a bonus action to imbue yourself with
great power. Once per turn, on a hit, you deal an additional
amount of damage equal to your Strength modifier and the
target must make a Strength saving throw against your Ki
Save DC, falling prone on a failure. If you hit, you may then
swap places with an adjacent willing or prone creature.

Optional Class Features

You gain class features in the Audalis Player's Handbook
when you reach certain levels in your class. This
section
offers additional features that you can gain
as a paladin.
Unlike the features in the Audalis Player's Handbook, you
don't gain the features here automatically. Consulting
with
your DM, you decide whether to gain a feature
in this section
if you meet the level requirement
noted in the feature's
description. These features
can be selected separately from
one another; you
can use one, both, or none of them.

Decrepit Touch
1st-level paladin feature


You can use your Lay on Hands, you can choose to imbue it
with negative energy. These points cause necrotic damage
instead and requires an melee attack roll to use as a weapon.
If used on an undead, it instead heals the target.

Fighting Style Options
2nd-level paladin feature


When you choose a fighting style, the following styles are
added to your list of options.

Godly Voice

You learn two cantrips of your choice from the invoker spell
list. They count as paladin spells for you, and Charisma is
your spellcasting ability for them. Whenever you gain a level
in this class, you can replace one of these talents with
another talent from the invoker spell list.

Accurate Striker

You may choose to use a bonus action before you take the
attack action on your turn to focus your strikes. Each attack
that turn gains a bonus to the attack roll equal to your
proficiency bonus. If the attack hits, you subtract your
proficiency bonus from the attack's damage.

Reaching Attacker

While you are wielding a melee weapon in one hand and no
other weapons, the weapon you are wielding is considered to
have the reach property. If the weapon already has this
property, the reach increases by 5 feet.

Brute

Whenever you hit a creature with a melee weapon that has
the two-handed or versatile property and that you are
wielding in two hands, you can attempt to drive the target
back and force the creature to make a Strength saving throw
with a DC of 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Strength
modifier. On a failed save, the target is pushed 5 feet away
from you. The weapon must have the two-handed or versatile
property and be held in two hands for you to gain this benefit,
and you may not use this effect more than once a turn.

You also gain an additional way to use your sneak attack;
you don't need advantage on the attack roll to use your sneak
attack against a creature if you are grappling it.

Enforcer's Armaments

Also at 3rd level, you gain proficiency with medium, shields,
and three martial melee weapons of your choice. These
weapons must lack the heavy and two-handed properties.

Intimidating

Beginning when you reach 7th level, you gain the ability to
unnerve your foes. As a bonus action, you can make an
Charisma (Intimidation) check against a creature you can see
that isn’t incapacitated, contested by the target’s Wisdom
(Insight) check. If you succeed, you have advantage on attack
rolls against the target.

This benefit lasts for 1 minute, until you use it on another
target, or until you do not hit the target on your turn.

Constricting Grip

Starting at 13th level, while you are grappling a creature, you
can use a bonus action to make a Strength (Athletics) check
against the creature's Strength (Athletics). If you succeed, the
creature is restrained rather than grappled until the end of
your next turn.

Heavy-Handed

Beginning at 17th level, you learn to make the most of
immobilizing your opponents. Any time you hit a creature you
are grappling and apply sneak attack, your sneak attack
damage against that target increases by 3d6.

School of the Lawmage

Restriction: Drannish Only

Only Drannish humans may choose the Lawmage arcane
tradition. Lawmages are an important part of society in
Drannon, and others learning their secrets could undermine
their authority.

Voice of Reason

When you choose this arcane tradition at 2nd level, you gain
the friends cantrip if you don't already know it. You also gain
proficiency in History, and your choice of Persuasion or
Intimidation, as well as learning one additional language of
your choice.

When you cast the friends cantrip, the spell does not
require somatic components, and the target does not become
aware of the spell nor become automatically hostile towards
you afterwards. If the creature is suspicious something may
have happened, they may make a Wisdom (Insight) check
against your spell save DC, becoming aware on a success.
They still do not become automatically hostile, but can use
their knowledge to decide how to continue.

Strength of Law

Also at 2nd level, you gain an additional 2 maximum hit
points, plus 1 more whenever you gain a level in this class. In
addition, you gain proficiency with light armor and simple
weapons.

In addition, while wearing light armor, you can treat any
simple weapon you wield as an arcane focus.

Light of Civilization

Beginning at 6th level, creatures take a penalty equal to your
Intelligence modifier on saving throws against any spell you
cast that would charm, restrain, or paralyze a creature but
deals no damage.

Lawful Denial

Starting when you reach 10th level, any creature charmed by
you is considered charmed by each of your allies as well. In
addition, any creature restrained by one of your spells is
considered paralyzed instead.

Final Say

Beginning at 14th level, spells you cast count as 6th level if
they are not already higher for the sake of spells such as
counterspell or dispel magic. In addition, your concentration
on any spell that charms, restrains, or paralyzes a creature
and deals no damage cannot be broken as the result of
damage.
