Way of the Butterfly

# Way of the Butterfly
Champions are not made in monestaries. Champions are made from something deep inside them. Monks of the _Way of the Butterfly_ train endlessly every day, not just to defeat their rivals, but to break beyond the very limits of their strength. After all, a champion is someone who fights on, even when you think he can't.

### Tiger's Eye
When you choose this tradition at 3rd level, your martial arts training has led you to meet the challenge of your rivals. Once per turn, you can spend 1 ki to choose one creature you can see within 30 feet of you, that creature is marked for 1 minute with your Tiger's Eye. When a creature marked with your _Tiger's Eye_ hits you with an attack, the damage you take from the attack is reduced by your _Martial Arts_ die.

Only 1 creature can be marked with _Tiger's Eye_ at one time.

In addition, when you score a critical hit against a creature affected by your Tiger's Eye, you can use your reaction to regain 1 ki point.

### Float like a Butterfly
Your dedication to the ring has taught you many combat maneuvers. Starting at 6th level, when engaged with a enemy creature you have marked with your _Tiger's Eye_, you can perform a series of maneuvers.

**Uppercut.** As a bonus action, perform an _Unarmed Strike_ against a marked creature. This attack is a critical hit on a roll of 18-20.

**Clinching.** As a bonus action, you can attempt to grapple a enemy creature marked with your _Tiger's Eye_. While you have a creature grappled, you may roll two dice, instead of one when reducing the damage with your Tiger's Eye feature

**Weaving.**  When you hit 2 times with an _Unarmed Strike_ against a creature marked with _Tiger's Eye_, you can begin _Weaving_ as a bonus action. While _Weaving_, until the start of your next turn, any attack roll made by a creature marked with your _Tiger's Eye_ is made with disadvantage.

### Sting like a Bee
At 11th level, you focus your ki into your movements for a powerful Jab

When you hit a target with an _Unarmed Strike_, you can spend 1 ki point to perform a _Jab_, dealing additional damage equal to your _Martial Arts_ die.

At 17th level, you can expend 5 ki points to empower yourself as the _King of the Ring_ for 1 minute, granting the following benefits:

* Whenever you use the Extra Attack feature to attack twice, you can instead attack three times
* When you score a critical hit, you can use your reaction to regain 2 ki point.
