In a similarly peaceful manner, Tranquility places the Monk under the Sanctuary spell after finishing a long rest, forcing any creature that attacks them to make a Wisdom saving throw. This can be used after successfully making an Unarmed Strike on a foe and spending 3 ki points. When the monk does so, the enemy must pass a Constitution save or be reduced to zero hit points; on a pass, they suffer 10d10 damage.
But really, what could be cooler than killing a dragon using the Five Point Palm Exploding Heart technique? Sinister, quasi-necromantic Monks, those following the Way of the Long Death are fascinated by the point at which the soul and body separate. Hour of Reaping allows the monk to spend an action to attempt to terrify every enemy within 30 feet, forcing them to make a Wisdom save or suffer the Frightened effect for a turn.
If they use this they will be sacrificing all their attacks for the turn, but they acquire it at just level six, when they may still be facing powerful foes with poor Wisdom saves natural beasts, Hill Giants and Slaad are great targets. Mastery of Death will have the party Barbarian gnashing their teeth in envy and the Cleric kissing you: for a single ki point and no action, if the Monk would be knocked to 0hp they instead remain standing on 1hp.
Spend 1 to 10 ki points, touch an adjacent creature, and force them to make a Constitution save. If they fail they take 2d10 necrotic damage for every ki point spent; on a pass they suffer half as much. The Way of the Sun Soul teaches Monks to unleash the power of their soul in bursts of radiant energy. Martial arts and energy beams? This is one for fans of Dragon Ball Z. The Radiant Sun Bolt allows the Monk to make ranged spell attacks.
When a Monk unleashes a sun bolt, they opt to spend 1 ki to unleash two more as a bonus action. Searing Arc Strike allows the Monk to channel ki into casting Burning Hands as a bonus action after attacking. You can also channel additional ki to cast it at a higher level, though you can only spend an amount of ki equal to half your Monk level. A foot range spell that creates a blast of light with a foot radius, creatures caught in the blast must pass a Constitution save or suffer 2d6 radiant damage, an amount that can be boosted by spending up to 3 ki points for 2d6 damage each.
Though less potent than Fireball, resistance to radiant damage is extremely rare, and if you catch the party Fighter in the blast they have a good chance of passing their save to avoid damage.
When the Monk reaches level 17 they go Super Saiyan. Though they all stem from similar Wuxia archetypes, Monk characters can be customised for many different adventuring roles. Halflings have a reputation for living the good life, so who would suspect a Halfling drunk of being a secret master of the martial arts?
A generational curse afflicts the crow-like Kenku, stripping them of the wings their ancestors once bore. Many Kenku strive to achieve flight.

However if you want a tankier character for your group, then fighter makes a somewhat better choice. You can get all the goodness from Fighter Stances while knocking some one around silly with Monk abilities. While monks provide superior combat abilities, the class mostly win through attrition. This means it can take a long time for them to gain victory, but they almost always come out a bit better in an equal fight. If you spell buff them properly, then they can even wander into a crowd, cause some havoc, and then leave with little trouble, buying you some time for the rest of your team.
In any situation, a monk survives by disrupting; not by tanking. If you leave them in a group of melee enemies, then they might not fare so well. How ever with some proper resistances and bit of healing, they can handle spell casters with little trouble as the rest of your group works on the enemy's front line.

Foreman Ismey. As a sign of this new commitment, the postulant wears a long black robe called a tunic. The next step in the formation of a monk — and perhaps the most important — is the Novitiate, which, like the Postulancy usually is a year in length. During this year, the Novice receives more intense instruction in Worship and Prayer, in the appreciation of the Psalms, and the Rule of Saint Benedict.
The Novitiate begins with the Rite of Monastic Initiation at Vespers during which he is given a new name and vested in a specific monastic habit: the tunic and modified scapular. The daily life of a Novice includes not only participating in all the common prayer, meals, recreation and work of the monks, but also a continuation of studies mentioned above.
During the Novitiate, as during the Observership and Postulancy, you or the Community may decide that monastic life is not for you.
A monk in formation is free to leave the community at any time, or may be asked to leave. For example, mid-way through the Novitiate, the Chapter votes again on the suitability of the Novice to continue. And at the end of the year-long novitiate, the Chapter votes a third time to decide whether the Novice should profess temporary vows.
The stages of formation are: Observership three months Postulancy one year Novitiate one year Simple Profession three years Solemn Profession for life Some monks are also called by God to become priests for ministry to his brother monks, Abbey guests, and others depending on the needs of the monastery and in accordance with the decision of the abbot.
What does it take to become a monk? Some of the criteria of a vocation to be a monk at Saint Benedict Abbey are: you must be a practicing Roman Catholic male between the ages of 18 and thirty you must be free from all binding obligations to your family, and not be in significant debt you must be in good health, physically and emotionally; you must have the capacity to live with others in community you must have the intellectual ability to understand your prayers, the instructions you receive, and the spiritual reading Lectio Divina that constitutes an essential part of monastic life you must have the capacity to participate fully in the Latin Novus Ordo Mass and Divine Office with the other monks.
