My raceless monk
Pretty simple I am making a Monk, Drunken Master and I don't have a race for him I have considered different things but nothing seems to click.
I would like to make a goliath but my DM doesn't approve of goliath monks.I got a couple of race books and it's in 3.5.
Any help is appreciated.DEGENERATION 93: Copy this into your sig and subtract 1 from the degeneration when you first see it. This is an antisocial experiment.

Re: My raceless monk
Expanded Psionics Handbook or Monster Manual...2?
I'd recommend a Human, honestly. Monks are always hurting for feats. Otherwise, a Half-Giant or Half-Ogre (Savage Species or Races of Destiny).Last edited by Chronicled; 2008-08-19 at 01:48 PM.

Re: My raceless monk
For the sheer absurdity: Crucian, from Sandstorm.
You can actually have a Ninja Turtle! The abilities would actually make a decent-ish Monk.Last edited by Telonius; 2008-08-19 at 01:57 PM.

Re: My raceless monk
Second dwarf, for coolness and because you don't care about your Charisma anyway. Get the DM to rule alcohol as a "poison" (completely reasonable judgement IMHO) for better fort saves.
Love the Third Amendment?

If ya really wanna get crazy, go Monk into fist of Zuoken for psionic enlarge, and, by higher levels, get up to gargantuan size.
Plus, who wouldn't want to play a monk that was an ABOMINABLE SNOWMAN?Last edited by Talic; 2008-08-19 at 02:40 PM.

Sven Yodelmeister, the Storm Giant Monk. Standing twenty feet tall with fingers like tree trunks and eyebrows that could crush a man's skull, Sven swaggers through the bar like... seriously, right through it.

Re: My raceless monk
goblin, for the fugg'all of it.
Because seriously? what wouldn't be funny about being mauled by a homeless looking goblin that reeked of cheap bourbon.
but more realistically? I dunno. Ogre-Mage could be fun but that's an absurdly high LA and Racial HD.
If psionics are allowed, Elan. but that could be said about nearly any class.

Re: My raceless monk
Be a Nymph.
A flipping male, drunken master, Nymph.
Screw the +7 LA with 6 Racial HD, it would be freaking hilariousness.

Re: My raceless monk
Thri-kreen is in Monster Manual 2 in 3ed, shining south (forgotten realms), expanded psionics, Savage specis, a few others besides
3 ecl, 1 La, 2 hit dice
+2 str, +4 dex, -2 int -2 wis -4 cha
40 spd
But the thing that makes them amazing is the fact they have 4 arms. Espically if you can become a vampire monk.
Extra limbs is amazing in D&D...

Re: My raceless monk
If we're going there... Illithid monk.
Some psionics, 4 tentacles, 2 fists... I mean, come on!
And think of the grappler fun.
Alternately, go thri-kreen with illithid heritage and illithid tentacle feats.
For when you need 4 arms AND 4 tentacles.
EDIT: If we're doing 2 flaws?
1) Racial HD - 3 feats (base, flaw flaw - Illithid heritage, Illithid tentacle x2)
2) Racial HD
3) LA
4) Monk 1 - 1 feat (illithid tentacle x3)
5) Monk 2
6) Monk 3
7) Monk 4 - (illithid tentacle x4)
8) Monk 5
9) Monk 6
10) Monk 7 - Multiattack (sure, why not)
11) Monk 8
12) Monk 9
13) Monk 10 - Aberrant Heritage
14) Monk 11
15) Monk 12
16) Monk 13 - Inhuman Reach (10 foot reach!)
17) Monk 14
18) Monk 15
19) Monk 16 - Superior natural attack (fist)
20) Sorceror 1 - Yay enlarge person
Now, using natural attack progression...
4 attacks (fist) + 2 tentacle attacks - at level 3.
4 attacks (fist) + 3 tentacle attacks - at level 4.
4 attacks (fist) + 4 tentacle attacks - at level 7.
Fists at full BAB, tentacles at BAB-2 - Level 10.
Increased reach at level 16.
So unoptimized it's not funny, but full of fun.Last edited by Talic; 2008-08-20 at 05:08 AM.
