I think it is high time that I present a monk feat. The monk is one of my most favorite classes and I simply haven’t given it the feat-discussion justice that the class deserves
Aspect of the Rock [General]
Prerequisites: Improved Unarmed Strike, Stunning Fist, Power Attack
Benefit: When using the power attack feat the DC of your successful Stunning Fist attacks increases by the penalty you take due to the power attack feat.
Note this is designed with the Pathfinder version of the Power Attack feat in mind, other editions should tailor the progression of the feat presented above in a similar way.




I like this. I even see myself giving a fighter a ki focus reach weapon and this feat. Now… I just need a way to combine it all with Whirlwind attack.

Glad you approve
The original design was actually to have unarmed strikes count as +2 damage weapons for power-attack. Until I read it all again and realized that they already do exactly that…

If you like monks, you should really look into Exalted. They go way in-depth with tons of different style of monk.

Book of Exalted Deeds?

I think jokasti is referring to Exalted, by White Wolf. Fun game. Remind me to run a session with you sometime.

I will gladly participate in / help out with any Exalted needs. It’s my preferred RPG atm.
