Far Hand
“So, you believe I must be next to you to break your skull with my fist? I urge you to reconsider,” -Mywr the Bold, Far Hand Disciple
Prerequisites: Monk, monk unarmed strike class feature, flurry of blows class feature
[Picture Should Go Here. Anyone Have Suggestions?]
You are the master of an ancient tradition, the Psionic Fist tradition, practiced by the Far Hands. The Far Hands are a group of monks who, through intensive training of mind and body, have learned to channel their psyche into a physical manifestation of their fist, able to mirror the movements of the monk’s own fist perfectly. Masters of the Far Hand technique learn to coordinate with their projection, the psionic fist, cutting off the avenues available for their foes and delivering a beating from both sides of the battlefield.
Perhaps you are a member of one of their monasteries, or in your travels you discovered a scroll of Far Hand disciplines. Or perhaps your natural psionic talent has led you to this style of its own volition, just as the originators of the Far Hand technique did. Whatever the method, your training in the Psionic Fist tradition has honed your body and mind to a razor point – or, rather, a knuckled fist.
Far Hand Path Features:
Psionic Fist (11th level): You gain the Psionic Fist encounter power below.
Unerring Knuckles (11th level): You can use your dexterity modifier for the attack and damage rolls of melee basic attacks made with your monk unarmed strike class feature. If you possess the Melee Training feat, you can immediately retrain it (this does not count towards your limit on retrainings per level-up).
Far Handed Action (11th level): When you spend an action point to take an extra action and your psionic fist is present in the encounter, you can teleport it up to 6 squares and make a melee basic attack with your monk unarmed strike, as if you occupied the psionic fist’s space, in addition to taking the extra action.
Master’s Psionic Fist (16th level): When you use your flurry of blows class feature, you can include as a target one enemy adjacent to your psionic fist as an additional target.
Far Hand Path Powers:
Psionic Fist
You create a projection of your fist far away, which attacks your enemies as if you were there next to them
Encounter Psionic, Conjuration
Minor Action Ranged 10
Effect: You conjure a hand of violet energy in an unoccupied square within range. The hand can be used to manipulate its environment or lift an object of up to 30 pounds as a minor action, as if it were your own hand. For skill checks, it uses your skill check modifiers, though it can only perform tasks that require a single hand, and it can float in the air without a surface to support it. You can make melee basic attacks with your monk unarmed strike as if you occupied its square, and it can benefit from a magical ki focus that you wield.
As a move action, you can teleport the hand 6 squares. As it can float, it can be teleported into the air. If, at the end of your turn, the fist is more than 20 squares away from you, it dissipates. The hand lasts until the end of the encounter, or until you dismiss it as a minor action.
One-Two Warp
As your blow hits home, you channel your psionic power to launch the enemy through space… right into another punch.
Encounter Implement, Psionic
Standard Action Melee touch
Target: One enemy
Attack: Dexterity vs. Reflex
Hit: 1d10 + Dexterity modifier damage and you teleport the target to a square adjacent to your psionic fist. You can then make a melee basic attack with your monk unarmed strike using your psionic fist as the origin square against the target as a free action
Greater Psionic Fist Focus
Your psionic fist temporarily takes on a more physical manifestation, capable of executing more complex maneuvers
Encounter * Psionic
Free Action Personal
Trigger: You start your turn
Effect: Until the end of your next turn, you can use the grab power as if you occupied the space of your psionic fist. Grabs made in this way can be sustained normally. Additionally, until the end of your next turn, you can perform melee touch attacks with the psionic and implement keywords as if you occupied the fist’s space.
Warp Fist Dance
You and your psionic fist move around the battlefield, pulverizing foes with knuckles real and conjured
Daily* Psionic, Weapon, Teleportation
Standard Action Close Burst 15
Effect: You can make a melee basic attack with your monk unarmed strike against each target in the burst, even those to whom you are not adjacent. After all the attacks have been resolved, you can teleport yourself and your psionic fist to any unoccupied square in the burst within reach of an enemy.
