[sblock=Description and History]
In time before the wars of elfic alliance, Myrrash and the drow, there was verdant forest in which legendary green dragon ruled, last of its kind known to mortal humanoids. It lived in tentative peace with surrounding realms of elves, dwarves, yuan-ti and men - those merchants traveling through it's domain knew not to fight if kobolds asked for a tithe. It surrounded itself with kobolds worshiping and serving it as best as they could from their subterranean lairs. Some of them lived above ground as scouts and enforcers, others mined deep caves for precious metals...dragon was harsh master, but much more dependable than it's red or white cousins. His servants were valued if for no other reason than to prevent the need for dragon to rouse itself more than once a century.
Than the wars came and it defended it's forest, mighty dragon stalking powerful demons while kobolds dealt with minor threats through traps and alchemy.
Viridian Queen, Lady of the Moss Forest, Ruler of infinite trees under the sky held her domain fairly clear of the demons. More intelligent ones realized there is no point in wasting troops until they secure the foothold and left her in peace. Still, incursions continued and her patience and her stock of kobolds grew ever lower. When Ministers appeared and humans organized a crusade along their dwarven allies, she offered her help. And was rebuffed by too righteous, overzealous magister. She tried to help regardless, but without support, her effect on the battle was minimal. After humans were defeated in one battle, the dragon was caught and after terrible fight succumbed. Demons weren't finished with. They rounded up kobold tribe for slaves, dragons progeny for sport, corruption or worse. Some of that progeny would be centuries old and mighty in and of themselves if they managed to survive in the demons world.
As The Queen fell and was tortured, she had time to anoint nearest kobold (one of her soul-bonded-warriors) with her blood. The kobold was trapped under the great body of The Queen and unwilling part of the ritual. As she was dying she proclaimed ancient dragon oath that bound her power to her blood. Kobold was buried under her, covered with earth and plants and slept under dragons domain through the transformation. Centuries passed and blood of the dragon and the essence of the forest seeped into its small body.
Here it lay forgotten, until such time an oracle, lead by vision of returning power of dragons brought the warrior back to light. As the light stabbed its light-sensitive eyes, tortured kobold roared to life, scales green as his dragon "parent", his body encased in green crystalline substance, his body remotely resembling the dragons, with powerful jaws, claws, tail and even wings. He felt stronger, hardier, more powerful than ever before.
Yilap, as the kobold was named, looked around the forest, the world much different than the world he went to sleep in. One ruled by humans. The forest was still here, but tamed, passable. Weak.
Creature that uncovered him asked many questions and answered some in return. Yilap worked on the crystal that encased him, chipping parts of it, molding, working until he had functional armor made of that strange green substance. He thanked the oracle and left in search of his tribe.
Underground was worse, with tiefling kobolds taking over their weaker cousins, drow and their servants enslaving anything they found. But in remote regions, some deep down, some within surface caves, small tribes survived by being stealthy enough or simply insignificant enough to hunt down.
Yilap took the name Fintir Kothar, Demon Slayer, Viridian Heir. He learned hard way that the tribes have been corrupted and he had to fight his way out of the shallow caves. There was no society anymore. No one was caring for the tribe anymore. There was no laws and no traditions. He went deeper into the ground until he could come to terms with his new body. He clawed his way down until he found the tribe of 'normal' kobolds. Those who didn't show signs of demonic influence. He spent some time with them, teaching them history of their people, connecting several tribes, their shamans, chieftains and sorcerers seeing the war coming to them once more.
In time, he was forced to take over one tribe, duel between him and the chieftain lasting all of ten seconds. After a year, they started ranging up, setting up traps and pushing into their former territories. With drow ruling around them they went further up toward the surface, avoiding powerful fey and their servants. Thunderscales were again out in the world! The warrens were fortified against drow and demons, traps were set and slowly they started re-learning the secrets of the forest. Once, out scouting, Fintir was attacked by a boar. Bowled over, harried and gored, he barely survived and that only thanks to tumbling into the ravine created by some old flood. Recovering in the branches, he considered what happened and how efficient the animal movement were. He already used his natural weapons. But he used them as a fighter would use his spear or a dagger, darting in, clawing or biting and retreating. Returning to the tribe, he changed his combat style to aggressive overbearing attack of all his weapons. At the same time, even his armor didn't save him from cuts and bruises brought by being pushed, trampled and thrown around. So he trained his body, hardening scales by repeated strikes, by roughly scouring them with stone or sand.
Thinking about it brought him to another revelation. The tribe now cared for each other without constant bickering and backstabbing. It was matter of survival, but even weak were cared for. Even weak had their place and each in its own way helped the tribe even if that was only caring about the eggs. The religion slowly shifted from Gaknulak and his focus on protection and stealth to Apsu and his ideals of Law, Good and Scaly folk.
Remembering humans rejection of his mighty Queen, but aware that his tribe will be killed or enslaved if discovered by drow from below, elves from surrounding forests or any other organized nation, Fintir Kothar learned the language of humans and went into the world, content that the tribes can now work united against common enemy.

[sblock=Description and History]
In time before the wars of elfic alliance, Myrrash and the drow, there was verdant forest in which legendary green dragon ruled, last of its kind known to mortal humanoids. It lived in tentative peace with surrounding realms of elves, dwarves, yuan-ti and men - those merchants traveling through it's domain knew not to fight if kobolds asked for a tithe. It surrounded itself with kobolds worshiping and serving it as best as they could from their subterranean lairs. Some of them lived above ground as scouts and enforcers, others mined deep caves for precious metals...dragon was harsh master, but much more dependable than it's red or white cousins. His servants were valued if for no other reason than to prevent the need for dragon to rouse itself more than once a century.
Than the wars came and it defended it's forest, mighty dragon stalking powerful demons while kobolds dealt with minor threats through traps and alchemy.
Viridian Queen, Lady of the Moss Forest, Ruler of infinite trees under the sky held her domain fairly clear of the demons. More intelligent ones realized there is no point in wasting troops until they secure the foothold and left her in peace. Still, incursions continued and her patience and her stock of kobolds grew ever lower. When Ministers appeared and humans organized a crusade along their dwarven allies, she offered her help. And was rebuffed by too righteous, overzealous magister. She tried to help regardless, but without support, her effect on the battle was minimal. After humans were defeated in one battle, the dragon was caught and after terrible fight succumbed. Demons weren't finished with. They rounded up kobold tribe for slaves, dragons progeny for sport, corruption or worse. Some of that progeny would be centuries old and mighty in and of themselves if they managed to survive in the demons world.
As The Queen fell and was tortured, she had time to anoint nearest kobold (one of her soul-bonded-warriors) with her blood. The kobold was trapped under the great body of The Queen and unwilling part of the ritual. As she was dying she proclaimed ancient dragon oath that bound her power to her blood. Kobold was buried under her, covered with earth and plants and slept under dragons domain through the transformation. Centuries passed and blood of the dragon and the essence of the forest seeped into its small body.
Here it lay forgotten, until such time an oracle, lead by vision of returning power of dragons brought the warrior back to light. As the light stabbed its light-sensitive eyes, tortured kobold roared to life, scales green as his dragon "parent", his body encased in green crystalline substance, his body remotely resembling the dragons, with powerful jaws, claws, tail and even wings. He felt stronger, hardier, more powerful than ever before.
Yilap, as the kobold was named, looked around the forest, the world much different than the world he went to sleep in. One ruled by humans. The forest was still here, but tamed, passable. Weak.
Creature that uncovered him asked many questions and answered some in return. Yilap worked on the crystal that encased him, chipping parts of it, molding, working until he had functional armor made of that strange green substance. He thanked the oracle and left in search of his tribe.
Underground was worse, with tiefling kobolds taking over their weaker cousins, drow and their servants enslaving anything they found. But in remote regions, some deep down, some within surface caves, small tribes survived by being stealthy enough or simply insignificant enough to hunt down.
Yilap took the name Fintir Kothar, Demon Slayer, Viridian Heir. He learned hard way that the tribes have been corrupted and he had to fight his way out of the shallow caves. There was no society anymore. No one was caring for the tribe anymore. There was no laws and no traditions. He went deeper into the ground until he could come to terms with his new body. He clawed his way down until he found the tribe of 'normal' kobolds. Those who didn't show signs of demonic influence. He spent some time with them, teaching them history of their people, connecting several tribes, their shamans, chieftains and sorcerers seeing the war coming to them once more.
In time, he was forced to take over one tribe, duel between him and the chieftain lasting all of ten seconds. After a year, they started ranging up, setting up traps and pushing into their former territories. With drow ruling around them they went further up toward the surface, avoiding powerful fey and their servants. Thunderscales were again out in the world! The warrens were fortified against drow and demons, traps were set and slowly they started re-learning the secrets of the forest. Once, out scouting, Fintir was attacked by a boar. Bowled over, harried and gored, he barely survived and that only thanks to tumbling into the ravine created by some old flood. Recovering in the branches, he considered what happened and how efficient the animal movement were. He already used his natural weapons. But he used them as a fighter would use his spear or a dagger, darting in, clawing or biting and retreating. Returning to the tribe, he changed his combat style to aggressive overbearing attack of all his weapons. At the same time, even his armor didn't save him from cuts and bruises brought by being pushed, trampled and thrown around. So he trained his body, hardening scales by repeated strikes, by roughly scouring them with stone or sand.
Thinking about it brought him to another revelation. The tribe now cared for each other without constant bickering and backstabbing. It was matter of survival, but even weak were cared for. Even weak had their place and each in its own way helped the tribe even if that was only caring about the eggs. The religion slowly shifted from Gaknulak and his focus on protection and stealth to Apsu and his ideals of Law, Good and Scaly folk.
Remembering humans rejection of his mighty Queen, but aware that his tribe will be killed or enslaved if discovered by drow from below, elves from surrounding forests or any other organized nation, Fintir Kothar learned the language of humans and went into the world, content that the tribes can now work united against common enemy.

EXPENDABLES TRACKING
Stunning First: 13/day
Ki Points: 15/day
AoO: 9/round
[sblock="Common Conditions"]Fatigued: A fatigued character can neither run nor charge and takes a –2 penalty to Strength and Dexterity. Doing anything that would normally cause fatigue causes the fatigued character to become exhausted. After 8 hours of complete rest, fatigued characters are no longer fatigued.
Pinned: A pinned creature is tightly bound and can take few actions. A pinned creature cannot move and is denied its Dexterity bonus. A pinned character also takes an additional –4 penalty to his Armor Class. A pinned creature is limited in the actions that it can take. A pinned creature can always attempt to free itself, usually through a combat maneuver check or Escape Artist check. A pinned creature can take verbal and mental actions, but cannot cast any spells that require a somatic or material component. A pinned character who attempts to cast a spell or use a spell-like ability must make a concentration check (DC 10 + grappler’s CMB + spell level) or lose the spell. Pinned is a more severe version of grappled, and their effects do not stack.
Casting Spells while Pinned: The only spells which can be cast while grappling or pinned are those without somatic components and whose material components (if any) you have in hand. Even so, you must make a concentration check (DC 10 + the grappler’s CMB + the level of the spell you’re casting) or lose the spell.
Prone: The character is lying on the ground. A prone attacker has a –4 penalty on melee attack rolls and cannot use a ranged weapon (except for a crossbow). A prone defender gains a +4 bonus to Armor Class against ranged attacks, but takes a –4 penalty to AC against melee attacks.
Standing up is a move-equivalent action that provokes an attack of opportunity.
Sickened: The character takes a –2 penalty on all attack rolls, weapon damage rolls, saving throws, skill checks, and ability checks.
Staggered:A staggered creature may take a single move action or standard action each round (but not both, nor can he take full-round actions). A staggered creature can still take free, swift, and immediate actions. A creature with nonlethal damage exactly equal to its current hit points gains the staggered condition.
Stunned:A stunned creature drops everything held, can’t take actions, takes a –2 penalty to AC, and loses its Dexterity bonus to AC (if any).
Attackers receive a +4 bonus on attack rolls to perform combat maneuvers against a stunned opponent.

EXPENDABLES TRACKING
Stunning First: 13/day
Ki Points: 15/day
AoO: 9/round
[sblock="Common Conditions"]Fatigued: A fatigued character can neither run nor charge and takes a –2 penalty to Strength and Dexterity. Doing anything that would normally cause fatigue causes the fatigued character to become exhausted. After 8 hours of complete rest, fatigued characters are no longer fatigued.
Pinned: A pinned creature is tightly bound and can take few actions. A pinned creature cannot move and is denied its Dexterity bonus. A pinned character also takes an additional –4 penalty to his Armor Class. A pinned creature is limited in the actions that it can take. A pinned creature can always attempt to free itself, usually through a combat maneuver check or Escape Artist check. A pinned creature can take verbal and mental actions, but cannot cast any spells that require a somatic or material component. A pinned character who attempts to cast a spell or use a spell-like ability must make a concentration check (DC 10 + grappler’s CMB + spell level) or lose the spell. Pinned is a more severe version of grappled, and their effects do not stack.
Casting Spells while Pinned: The only spells which can be cast while grappling or pinned are those without somatic components and whose material components (if any) you have in hand. Even so, you must make a concentration check (DC 10 + the grappler’s CMB + the level of the spell you’re casting) or lose the spell.
Prone: The character is lying on the ground. A prone attacker has a –4 penalty on melee attack rolls and cannot use a ranged weapon (except for a crossbow). A prone defender gains a +4 bonus to Armor Class against ranged attacks, but takes a –4 penalty to AC against melee attacks.
Standing up is a move-equivalent action that provokes an attack of opportunity.
Sickened: The character takes a –2 penalty on all attack rolls, weapon damage rolls, saving throws, skill checks, and ability checks.
Staggered:A staggered creature may take a single move action or standard action each round (but not both, nor can he take full-round actions). A staggered creature can still take free, swift, and immediate actions. A creature with nonlethal damage exactly equal to its current hit points gains the staggered condition.
Stunned:A stunned creature drops everything held, can’t take actions, takes a –2 penalty to AC, and loses its Dexterity bonus to AC (if any).
Attackers receive a +4 bonus on attack rolls to perform combat maneuvers against a stunned opponent.

Monk: 1st: Improved Grapple; 2nd: Combat Reflexes; 6th: Improved Trip; 10th: Improved Critical (unarmed strike)
Combat Reflexes: You can make additional attacks of opportunity.
You may make a number of additional attacks of opportunity per round equal to your Dexterity bonus. With this feat, you may also make attacks of opportunity while flat-footed.
Greater Grapple: Maintaining a grapple is second nature to you.
You receive a +2 bonus on checks made to grapple a foe. This bonus stacks with the bonus granted by Improved Grapple. Once you have grappled a creature, maintaining the grapple is a move action. This feat allows you to make two grapple checks each round (to move, harm, or pin your opponent), but you are not required to make two checks. You only need to succeed at one of these checks to maintain the grapple.
Greater Trip: You can make free attacks on foes that you knock down.
You receive a +2 bonus on checks made to trip a foe. This bonus stacks with the bonus granted by Improved Trip. Whenever you successfully trip an opponent, that opponent provokes attacks of opportunity.
Improved Critical: Unarmed Strikes Attacks made with your chosen weapon are quite deadly.
When using the weapon you selected, your threat range is doubled.
You can gain Improved Critical multiple times. The effects do not stack. Each time you take the feat, it applies to a new type of weapon.
This effect doesn’t stack with any other effect that expands the threat range of a weapon.
Improved Grapple: You are skilled at grappling opponents.You can gain Improved Critical multiple times. The effects do not stack. Each time you take the feat, it applies to a new type of weapon.
This effect doesn’t stack with any other effect that expands the threat range of a weapon.
You do not provoke an attack of opportunity when performing a grapple combat maneuver. In addition, you receive a +2 bonus on checks made to grapple a foe. You also receive a +2 bonus to your Combat Maneuver Defense whenever an opponent tries to grapple you.
Improved Trip: You are skilled at sending your opponents to the ground.
You do not provoke an attack of opportunity when performing a trip combat maneuver. In addition, you receive a +2 bonus on checks made to trip a foe. You also receive a +2 bonus to your Combat Maneuver Defense whenever an opponent tries to trip you.
Nimble Moves: You can move across a single obstacle with ease.
Whenever you move, you may move through 5 feet of difficult terrain each round as if it were normal terrain. This feat allows you to take a 5-foot step into difficult terrain.
Power Attack: You can make exceptionally deadly melee attacks by sacrificing accuracy for strength.
You can choose to take a –1 penalty on all melee attack rolls and combat maneuver checks to gain a +2 bonus on all melee damage rolls. This bonus to damage is increased by half (+50%) if you are making an attack with a two-handed weapon, a one handed weapon using two hands, or a primary natural weapon that adds 1-1/2 times your Strength modifier on damage rolls. This bonus to damage is halved (–50%) if you are making an attack with an off-hand weapon or secondary natural weapon.
When your base attack bonus reaches +4, and every 4 points thereafter, the penalty increases by –1 and the bonus to damage increases by +2.
You must choose to use this feat before making an attack roll, and its effects last until your next turn. The bonus damage does not apply to touch attacks or effects that do not deal hit point damage.
Stunning Fist: At 1st level, the monk gains Stunning Fist as a bonus feat, even if he does not meet the prerequisites.When your base attack bonus reaches +4, and every 4 points thereafter, the penalty increases by –1 and the bonus to damage increases by +2.
You must choose to use this feat before making an attack roll, and its effects last until your next turn. The bonus damage does not apply to touch attacks or effects that do not deal hit point damage.
You must declare that you are using this feat before you make your attack roll (thus, a failed attack roll ruins the attempt). Stunning Fist forces a foe damaged by your unarmed attack to make a Fortitude saving throw (DC 10 + 1/2 your character level + your Wis modifier), in addition to dealing damage normally. A defender who fails this saving throw is stunned for 1 round (until just before your next turn). A stunned character drops everything held, can’t take actions, loses any Dexterity bonus to AC, and takes a –2 penalty to AC. You may attempt a stunning attack once per day for every four levels you have attained (but see Special), and no more than once per round. Constructs, oozes, plants, undead, incorporeal creatures, and creatures immune to critical hits cannot be stunned.
A monk receives Stunning Fist as a bonus feat at 1st level, even if he does not meet the prerequisites. A monk may attempt a stunning attack a number of times per day equal to his monk level, plus one more time per day for every four levels he has in classes other than monk.
At 4th level, and every 4 levels thereafter, the monk gains the ability to apply a new condition to the target of his Stunning Fist. This condition replaces stunning the target for 1 round, and a successful saving throw still negates the effect. At 4th level, the monk can choose to make the target fatigued. At 8th level, he can make the target sickened for 1 minute. At 12th level, he can make the target staggered for 1d6+1 rounds.
Vicious Stomp: You take advantage of the moment to brutally kick an enemy when he is down.A monk receives Stunning Fist as a bonus feat at 1st level, even if he does not meet the prerequisites. A monk may attempt a stunning attack a number of times per day equal to his monk level, plus one more time per day for every four levels he has in classes other than monk.
At 4th level, and every 4 levels thereafter, the monk gains the ability to apply a new condition to the target of his Stunning Fist.

At 8th level, he can make the target sickened for 1 minute. At 12th level, he can make the target staggered for 1d6+1 rounds.
Whenever an opponent falls prone adjacent to you, that opponent provokes an attack of opportunity from you. This attack must be an unarmed strike.
Weapon Focus: Unarmed Strike
You gain a +1 bonus on all attack rolls you make using the selected weapon.
You can gain this feat multiple times. Its effects do not stack. Each time you take the feat, it applies to a new type of weapon.
[/sblock][sblock="Class: Unchained Monk"]AC Bonus:You can gain this feat multiple times. Its effects do not stack. Each time you take the feat, it applies to a new type of weapon.
When unarmored and unencumbered, the monk adds his Wisdom bonus (if any) to his AC and CMD. In addition, a monk gains a +1 bonus to AC and CMD at 4th level. This bonus increases by 1 for every four monk levels thereafter, up to a maximum of +5 at 20th level. These bonuses to AC apply even against touch attacks or when the monk is flat-footed. He loses these bonuses when he is immobilized or helpless, when he wears any armor, when he carries a shield, or when he carries a medium or heavy load.
Bonus Feats
At 1st level, 2nd level, and every 4 levels thereafter, a monk can select a bonus feat. These feats must be taken from the following list: Catch Off-Guard, Combat Reflexes, Deflect Arrows, Dodge, Improved Grapple, Scorpion Style, and Throw Anything. At 6th level, the following feats are added to the list: Gorgon’s Fist, Improved Bull Rush, Improved Disarm, Improved Feint, Improved Trip, and Mobility. At 10th level, the following feats are added to the list: Improved Critical, Medusa’s Wrath, Snatch Arrows, and Spring Attack. A monk need not have any of the prerequisites normally required for these feats to select them.
Flurry of Blows:
At 1st level, a monk can make a flurry of blows as a full-attack action. When making a flurry of blows, the monk can make one additional attack at his highest base attack bonus. This additional attack stacks with the bonus attacks from haste and other similar effects. When using this ability, the monk can make these attacks with any combination of his unarmed strikes and weapons that have the monk special weapon quality. He takes no penalty for using multiple weapons when making a flurry of blows, but he does not gain any additional attacks beyond what’s already granted by the flurry for doing so. (He can still gain additional attacks from a high base attack bonus, from this ability, and from haste and similar effects).
At 11th level, a monk can make an additional attack at his highest base attack bonus whenever he makes a flurry of blows. This stacks with the first attack from this ability and additional attacks from haste and similar effects.
Ki Pool (Su):At 11th level, a monk can make an additional attack at his highest base attack bonus whenever he makes a flurry of blows. This stacks with the first attack from this ability and additional attacks from haste and similar effects.
At 3rd level, a monk gains a pool of ki points, supernatural energy he can use to accomplish amazing feats. The number of points in a monk’s ki pool is equal to 1/2 his monk level + his Wisdom modifier. As long as he has at least 1 point in his ki pool, he can make a ki strike.
At 3rd level, ki strike allows his unarmed attacks to be treated as magic weapons for the purpose of overcoming damage reduction.
At 7th level, his unarmed attacks are also treated as cold iron and silver for the purpose of overcoming damage reduction.
At 10th level, his unarmed attacks are also treated as lawful weapons for the purpose of overcoming damage reduction.
At 16th level, his unarmed attacks are treated as adamantine weapons for the purpose of overcoming damage reduction and bypassing hardness.
By spending 1 point from his ki pool as a swift action, a monk can make one additional unarmed strike at his highest attack bonus when making a flurry of blows attack. This bonus attack stacks with all bonus attacks gained from flurry of blows, as well as those from haste and similar effects. A monk gains additional powers that consume points from his ki pool as he gains levels.
The ki pool is replenished each morning after 8 hours of rest or meditation; these hours do not need to be consecutive.
Ki Power (Su):At 3rd level, ki strike allows his unarmed attacks to be treated as magic weapons for the purpose of overcoming damage reduction.
At 7th level, his unarmed attacks are also treated as cold iron and silver for the purpose of overcoming damage reduction.
At 10th level, his unarmed attacks are also treated as lawful weapons for the purpose of overcoming damage reduction.
At 16th level, his unarmed attacks are treated as adamantine weapons for the purpose of overcoming damage reduction and bypassing hardness.
By spending 1 point from his ki pool as a swift action, a monk can make one additional unarmed strike at his highest attack bonus when making a flurry of blows attack. This bonus attack stacks with all bonus attacks gained from flurry of blows, as well as those from haste and similar effects. A monk gains additional powers that consume points from his ki pool as he gains levels.
The ki pool is replenished each morning after 8 hours of rest or meditation; these hours do not need to be consecutive.
At 4th level and every 2 levels thereafter, a monk can select one ki power. These powers allow the monk to perform amazing feats of mystical power and acrobatic prowess by expending points from his ki pool. Once a ki power is selected, it cannot be changed. Some ki powers require the monk to be of a specific level or higher before they can be chosen. Unless otherwise noted, a monk cannot select an individual ki power more than once.
4th: Slow Fall (Su):
Improved Evasion (Ex):4th: Slow Fall (Su):
A monk within arm’s reach of a wall can use it to slow his descent by expending 1 point from his ki pool. When he uses this ability, he takes no damage from the fall (as if using feather fall), but he must be adjacent to a wall for the length of the fall (although this can be used to reduce the damage from a fall if only part of it is adjacent to a wall).
6th: Elemental Fury (Su):
A monk who selects this ki power must select one type of energy: acid, cold, electricity, or fire. Once this choice is made, it cannot be changed. The monk can expend 1 point from his ki pool as a swift action to imbue his natural attacks with this energy, causing them to deal 1d6 points of damage of the chosen type for a number of rounds equal to 1/2 his monk level. A monk must be at least 6th level before selecting this ki power.
8th: Formless Mastery (Ex):
A monk with this ability varies his styles, never repeating the same move twice and capitalizing on the weaknesses of an opponent’s style. As long as he does not possess any style feat, the monk can spend 1 point from his ki pool as an immediate action to gain the following against opponents in the stance of a style feat: a +4 dodge bonus to AC, a +4 circumstance bonus on attack rolls, and a bonus equal to his monk level on damage rolls. These bonuses last until the end of the monk’s next turn (or his current turn if he uses this ability on his own turn). The monk can activate this ability and the furious defense ki power with the same immediate action for a total cost of 3 ki points. A monk must be at least 7th level before selecting this ki power.
10th: Abundant Step (Su):
A monk with this ki power can slip magically between spaces, as if using the spell dimension door. Using this ability is a move action that consumes 2 points from his ki pool. The monk’s caster level for this effect is equal to his monk level. He cannot take other creatures with him when he uses this ability. A monk must be at least 8th level before selecting this ki power.[sblock="Dimension Door"]Casting Time: 1 standard action
Components: V
Range: long (400 ft. + 40 ft./level)
Target: you and touched objects[-] or other touched willing creatures[/-]
Duration: instantaneous
Saving Throw: none and Will negates (object);
Spell Resistance: no and yes (object)
DESCRIPTION
You instantly transfer yourself from your current location to any other spot within range. You always arrive at exactly the spot desired – whether by simply visualizing the area or by stating direction. After using this spell, you can’t take any other actions until your next turn. You can bring along objects as long as their weight doesn’t exceed your maximum load. You may also bring one additional willing Medium or smaller creature (carrying gear or objects up to its maximum load) or its equivalent per three caster levels. A Large creature counts as two Medium creatures, a Huge creature counts as two Large creatures, and so forth. All creatures to be transported must be in contact with one another, and at least one of those creatures must be in contact with you.
If you arrive in a place that is already occupied by a solid body, you and each creature traveling with you take 1d6 points of damage and are shunted to a random open space on a suitable surface within 100 feet of the intended location.
If there is no free space within 100 feet, you and each creature traveling with you take an additional 2d6 points of damage and are shunted to a free space within 1,000 feet. If there is no free space within 1,000 feet, you and each creature traveling with you take an additional 4d6 points of damage and the spell simply fails.

Because ships are constantly in motion, the caster of spells of the teleportation subschool must have line of sight to teleport onto a ship. Otherwise, a caster must scry upon a particular ship first, then immediately teleport to the scryed destination. Any delay in casting means the ship has moved from its scryed location and the spell fails.

A monk can spend 2 points from his ki pool as a swift action to gain spell resistance equal to his monk level + 10. This spell resistance lasts for a number of rounds equal to the monk’s level. A monk must be at least 12th level before selecting this ki power.
You take no damage on successful Reflex saving throws against attacks, and you only tale half damage on failed saves. A helpless monk does not gain the benefit of improved evasion.
Still Mind (Ex):
At 4th level, a monk gains a +2 bonus on saving throws against enchantment spells and effects.
Purity of Body (Ex):
At 5th level, a monk gains immunity to all diseases, including supernatural and magical diseases.
Style Strike (Ex):
At 5th level, a monk can learn one type of style strike. Whenever he makes a flurry of blows, he can designate one of his unarmed strikes as a style strike. This attack is resolved as normal, but it has an additional effect depending on the type of strike chosen. At 9th level, and every 4 levels thereafter, a monk learns an additional style strike. He must choose which style strike to apply before the attack roll is made. At 15th level, he can designate up to two of his unarmed strikes each round as a style strike, and each one can be a different type. The monk can choose from any of the following strikes.
5th: Shattering Punch
[/sblock][/sblock][sblock="EQUIPMENT"]Headband of Inspired Wisdom +4 (16,000gp) +4 Wis5th: Shattering Punch
The monk delivers a brutal punch that can penetrate defenses. If the attack hits, it bypasses any damage reduction or hardness possessed by the target of that attack. The monk must attack with a fist to use this style strike.
9th: Foot Stomp
The monk stomps on a foe’s foot, preventing the opponent from escaping. If the attack hits and the monk ends his turn adjacent to that foe, the foe’s movement is restricted. Until the start of the monk’s next turn, the target of this attack can move only in such a way that the space it occupies is adjacent to the monk. Alternatively, it can attempt a combat maneuver check (against the monk’s CMD) as a standard action to break free. This strike does not work against foes that cannot be tripped. The monk must attack with a kick to use this style strike.

Monk's Robe (13,000gp)
When worn, this simple brown robe confers great ability in unarmed combat. If the wearer has levels in monk, her AC and unarmed damage is treated as a monk of five levels higher. If donned by a character with the Stunning Fist feat, the robe lets her make one additional stunning attack per day. If the character is not a monk, she gains the AC and unarmed damage of a 5th-Level monk (although she does not add her Wisdom bonus to her AC). This AC bonus functions just like the monk’s AC bonus.

[sblock=Background]Aranel was born an elf, was raised an elf, and because she was not an elf she wanted to be more of an elf than most elves were. Her father is a noble who's family influence and wealth permits his eccentric taste to pass mostly unremarked, at least to his face. Her mother lived with him, even married him, and was a bright spot of light in Aranel's young life. She understood the difficulties of living with the long-lived, often haughty beings. Though Aranel was of their blood, they tended to see her as 'half human' rather than 'half elf.' And yet, frustratingly, they reacted to her as they would to an elf of similar age...that is, a child.
Seized with a desire to prove herself, Aranel devoted herself to the study of the elven people and their history and ways. She didn't limit herself to texts and scrolls, but ventured into the world to seek out ancient sites and sacred places to see firsthand. It was on one such expedition that she began to have the 'dragon dreams.'
They began as just a presence that she would feel while asleep...a strange feeling that would 'awaken' her within her own dream, turning the dream lucid just before she awakened fully. Over the next few nights the feeling became stronger, the period of lucidity longer, until finally she felt it trying to communicate with her. In her dream she knew it was near by the shadow of a great dragon cast over the ground. It urged her onward.
Aranel knew by now that the histories of the elves and dragons were entangled, but the details remained frustratingly vague. The great wyrms were supposedly gone from the world, but perhaps some ancient spell or magic remained? What could be learned from it? Secrets and lore never before discovered...the kind of thing that couldn't be ignored by the Quorum.
She went deeper, to a place where the forest had grown over crumbling ruins and signs of an ancient struggle. The shadow of the dragon in her dreams flashed an image, powerful enough to fascinate; to fixate. A peculiar eight-petaled flower growing alone from the bole of a tree that had fallen and broken over a steep embankment. She sent the others on her expedition back, pushing forward alone as food and water dwindled, driven forward by that echo in her mind.
When Aranel found it, she dug down...and didn't have to dig far before she found jags of what looked like emerald. An enormous green gem, rough and uncut, buried under the loam. And within...
She met what might have been, at one point, a kobold. But this kobold had almost nothing in common with the tiny, craven reptile-men of the current age. Larger, stronger, with developed wings...he was as much dragon as kobold. From her studies Aranel could work out his ancient dialect of Draconic well enough to communicate, and the spoke at some length...telling one another of their respective times. Then he set out to find 'his tribe.' Aranel might have gone with him, but the dream still beckoned, thunderously.
Deeper under the hill she'd found him in Aranel discovered the remains, the bones, of what had to be a great wyrm. When she reached out to touch a skull big enough for her to fit entirely inside, something passed from it to her. Or perhaps more accurately, passed through it to her.
Timelessness. Falling. No...flying. She was flame, howling through the sky like a meteor; she was a gale of arctic chill, a stroke of living lightning. They were with her, voices that split the void, speaking a language where each word was imbued with all the meaning of an entire tome of knowledge. At the end they spoke one more such word; it was to be her name. Like everything else they said, it meant many things.
In the common tongue the closest resonance would be...Herald.
She awakened under the hill, not knowing how much time had passed. Not caring. Near her were other ancient remains...the dragon had not fallen undefended. Moving on some cloudy memory from the 'dream,' Aranel pushed the cracked and mouldering piles of rust aside to find something that glittered and shone; a suit of armor wrought from dragonscales that had survived all these years. It was for her now. Aranel took it and started the journey back to the elven city. That night her hair fell out. It was all right. She didn't need it anymore. More changes were to come. Aranel might have the blood of high elves, but her soul had been touched, molded, by something that was to dragons what dragons were to humans. She had to know what that meant.[/sblock]

[sblock=Image & Backstory]
Arduniel was like any other young elf, timeless, enjoying life, living with nature and learning what it means to live for centuries. And he did. He discovered early his magic potential. He was trained to be a wizard as most other elves with the spark did. But he, he was different. his magic was part of his being, but he was no wizard. He couldn't manage even the simplest spells. He could learn the spells, the gestures, use components...but nothing would happen. Ever. He was tested as a sorcerer. Nothing. One day, magic theory course talked about true names, the language of magic so profound that mere names of things can change the reality. They learned that calling out true name of a being can aid in summoning and helping in controlling the creature. Short demonstration of the tutor called a minor fey. They were taught that mere mention of the more powerful creatures may gain them attention, but that any true calling included spells far above their ability. But when Arduniel called the names things happened. Calling for fire, things burst in flames. Naming the language of magic enabled him to read it. Or to see magic around him. Nearly lost magic of true names, of true language of magic returned to the elves.
Part of his training were of course various runes. And mention of ancient Thassilon, human empire where wizards ruled. He learned about the corruption of power as humans changed seven virtues into seven sins. In his arrogance, his isolated, easy and peaceful life, he dismissed it as human weakness.
Until one faithful day when his settlement was attacked by humanoid tribe and they were nearly wiped out. His home despoiled. His people killed. Women taken. He joined other youths in immediate pursuit, lead by righteous anger, an outrage and hurt. They caught up with the raiders and killed them all. The elves showed no mercy and Arduniel was no better than the lowest of guards. His anger, no, his wrath, empowered his magic to terrible levels. Disillusioned about the elves, his own superiority and power in general. He spent decades trying to get rid of the anger and to make things (and himself) better. After time in isolation he managed to control his anger. And given his propensity for words that change the reality, he externalized the anger. He is now as peaceful as he ever was. Living with the immortal fey and the elves in isolated city he again started feeling normal when the disease struck. He didn't really worry too much, weakness and ambivalence to everything was known to elves. After all, you can only repeat the same things so many times before they grow old on you. But this turned out to be more serious than that and he started the research. His friend Goliath mentioned nymphs and he joined them looking for some extra info. When strangers appeared, he was alarmed at first, but as he listened he grew more and more interested.

[sblock=Image & Backstory]
Arduniel was like any other young elf, timeless, enjoying life, living with nature and learning what it means to live for centuries. And he did. He discovered early his magic potential. He was trained to be a wizard as most other elves with the spark did. But he, he was different. his magic was part of his being, but he was no wizard. He couldn't manage even the simplest spells. He could learn the spells, the gestures, use components...but nothing would happen. Ever. He was tested as a sorcerer. Nothing. One day, magic theory course talked about true names, the language of magic so profound that mere names of things can change the reality. They learned that calling out true name of a being can aid in summoning and helping in controlling the creature. Short demonstration of the tutor called a minor fey. They were taught that mere mention of the more powerful creatures may gain them attention, but that any true calling included spells far above their ability. But when Arduniel called the names things happened. Calling for fire, things burst in flames. Naming the language of magic enabled him to read it. Or to see magic around him. Nearly lost magic of true names, of true language of magic returned to the elves.
Part of his training were of course various runes. And mention of ancient Thassilon, human empire where wizards ruled. He learned about the corruption of power as humans changed seven virtues into seven sins. In his arrogance, his isolated, easy and peaceful life, he dismissed it as human weakness.
Until one faithful day when his settlement was attacked by humanoid tribe and they were nearly wiped out. His home despoiled. His people killed. Women taken. He joined other youths in immediate pursuit, lead by righteous anger, an outrage and hurt. They caught up with the raiders and killed them all. The elves showed no mercy and Arduniel was no better than the lowest of guards. His anger, no, his wrath, empowered his magic to terrible levels. Disillusioned about the elves, his own superiority and power in general. He spent decades trying to get rid of the anger and to make things (and himself) better. After time in isolation he managed to control his anger. And given his propensity for words that change the reality, he externalized the anger. He is now as peaceful as he ever was. Living with the immortal fey and the elves in isolated city he again started feeling normal when the disease struck. He didn't really worry too much, weakness and ambivalence to everything was known to elves. After all, you can only repeat the same things so many times before they grow old on you. But this turned out to be more serious than that and he started the research. His friend Goliath mentioned nymphs and he joined them looking for some extra info. When strangers appeared, he was alarmed at first, but as he listened he grew more and more interested.

Guys I'm returning to all games this week. To close the troublesome days, I've been quite sick, to the point I had to lay down and wait, basically. Please, pass on the word. Sorry again. We'll resume all games to normal pacing till tomorrow.

--------------------
Tieflings face a great deal of discrimination in this world, both from average people who leap to conclusions regarding their demonic appearances, and from more "enlightened" scholars who insist on there being an intellectual basis for why they must never be trusted. The fact that no tiefling can recall the details of any afterlife has been seized upon by many bigoted scholars as proof that they have no souls, for example, or that they are all compelled to lie about their return to the infernal realms by demonic masters able to outwit mortal divination spells.
Consequently, Chalk has grown up in something of a defensive crouch her entire life, surrounded by people in the slums she had to be unfailingly polite to since she knew that the difference between her seeing another day and one more dead tiefling was a matter of goodwill. She was always intelligent, but never had a means to apply it other than the occasional streetfight where she could lay out someone twice her size by knowing just where and when to strike with her claws.
Her fortunes changed when she wound up a deckhand on the merchant ship Belle of the Ball; the ship's captain, the half-orc Bastok, cared little about the fate of her soul as long as she kept the deck swabbed. She learned the finer arts of swordplay from the ship's first mate Beryl, but her passion was truly ignited by the ship's alchemist, who was a tiefling as well; the alchemist, nicknamed Matchstick, kept the ship stocked in everything from alchemical ammunition for the ship's weapons, to safe-burning sources of light for thick fog and moonless nights, to the kind of intoxicants that only a sailor could enjoy.
On shore leave, Matchstick wound up accused of a crime he could not have committed, and the young Chalk set out to prove his innocence, and the combination of all that she had learned served as a key sliding into a well-oiled lock; as good as she was at swordplay and alchemy, she was an outstanding detective, partly due to raw talent and partly due to a work ethic that put many to shame. A couple of sleepless nights later, and with a well-secured bribe to a non-tiefling to represent her alchemist mentor in court, Chalk had secured Matchstick's freedom and her own future.
Since then, Chalk's star has risen, her pechant for solving impossible crimes keeping pace with her reputation. She figured out she was transgender less than a year ago and cooked up an alchemical treatment to make herself the lady she wanted to be; many people think that Alice Chalk is a relative of the famed investigator Archer Chalk, many others think that too much time in the lab has done something to her brain, many others still don't see what the big deal is in a world where a significant percentage of the population can turn into a bear, and a few have inquired on the sly just how her treatment works. She discovered the secret of the unfolding heart, solved a locked room mystery where the murder weapon was a weaponized melody, and most infamously, figured out the ending of the ongoing dramatic ballad "The Nowhere People," forcing the bard to change the ending to a significantly less satisfactory one. (She doesn't regret much, but she does regret this.)
Alice's personal passion is combating the stereotypes of tieflings; even those who have fallen to evil elicit some sympathy from her, since she's intimately familiar with the notion of the world telling you you're something to the point you believe it yourself. Her personal passion project is to discover what the tiefling afterlife is; to either prove that tieflings are judged by the merits of their lives, like any other mortal, or if they're not judged fairly, that whoever does the judging gets their ass kicked hard enough they reconsider their policy. But Alice is in no mood to die just yet; there are many more mysteries in this life to unravel.
Appearance: when she went by Archer, she had a rumpled appearance complete with a drab and stained coat stuffed with her alchemical substances and gear; since changing her name to Alice she has cleaned up significantly, with a sharper command of color (due to some special alchemical dyes) and a more organized approach. She is quite visible a tiefling, with blue scaley skin and red eyes (authentic) and red hair (dyed from her typical black.) She has short but sharp claws on her fingers and a tail with - she swears - a mind of its own, that she is quite skilled at using as its own appendage.
