[QUOTE="Satyrn, post: 7313399, member: 6801204"] Monks based on the disciplines would be neat. I could totally see an fighter subclass like the eldritch knight but using maneuvers. Or start from scratch with a new class, with those disciplines as the subclass. Maybe even make 3 such classes to mirror the tome of battle, but I think the best 5e way would just be monk and fighter subclasses. The binder was done by a third party publisher. I forget who. The truenamer, as you say, was built on a mechanic that doesn't work, but the theme is certainly doable. I think iI'd try it as a bard subclass (though it would look very unlike the 3e true namer). I'd do the shadowcaster as both a wizard subclass and a sorcerer subclass, just because there's lots of ground to cover with "shadow magic" and variety is nice. As for incarnum, I never found it weird so much as boring. If I was to use it, I'd introduce the concept through a variety spells that formed the - what were they called? - effects. I might even be tempted to have them require concentration, unless they are bound to the chakra. How that rule would look, I don't know [/QUOTE]
