Monk
Monks are often spiritual ascetics and practitioners of a mystical energy known as Ki, the magical essence which flows through all living things. Monks utilized this energy to augment their own physical abilities, granting them extraordinary speed and power.
Monks who chose to become adventurers did so for various reasons. Some monks have a desire to test their own capabilities or find greater spiritual development. A few may be sent into the world with a particular purpose. Whatever the reason, the transition from a communal life to one of solitary traveling are rarely easy on monks.~
Project
This project’s goals were to make an update to help low ranked subclasses to be closer to the middle or high ranked subclasses of the same class. Rather than focus only on game mechanics or personal views of a subclass, the goal was to keep the subclass balanced within the designer’s intent and to the creator’s original concept. Lore, story, previous editions, characters, etc. were included if that was the focus of the creator or if there was a lack of enough information to fill in the required comparisons.
Way of the Drunken Master
From Xanathar's Guide to Everything
The Way of the Drunken Master teaches its students to move with the jerky, unpredictable movements of a drunkard. A drunken master sways, tottering on unsteady feet, to present what seems like an incompetent combatant who proves frustrating to engage. The drunken master’s erratic stumbles conceal a carefully executed dance of blocks, parries, advances, attacks, and retreats.
A drunken master often enjoys playing the fool to bring gladness to the despondent or to demonstrate humility to the arrogant, but when battle is joined, the drunken master can be a maddening, masterful foe.
Bonus Proficiencies
When you choose this tradition at 3rd level, you gain proficiency in the Performance skill if you don't already have it. Your martial arts technique mixes combat training with the precision of a dancer and the antics of a jester. You also gain proficiency with Brewer's Supplies if you don't already have it.
Optional:
Replace Brewer’s Supplies with any tool.
Drunken Technique
At 3rd level, you learn how to twist and turn quickly as part of your Flurry of Blows. Whenever you use Flurry of Blows, you gain the benefit of the Disengage action, and your walking speed increases by 10 feet until the end of the current turn.
Additionally, you catch others off guard when they aren’t focused on you. When a creature is the only target of your Flurry of Blows and they deal damage to anyone other than you, you have advantage on the next attack against them, and if it hits, the attack does extra damage equal to half your monk level.
Tipsy Sway
Starting at 6th level, you can move in sudden, swaying ways. You gain the following benefits.
Leap to Your Feet. When you're prone, you can stand up by spending 5 feet of movement, rather than half your speed.
Redirect Attack. When a creature misses you with a melee attack roll, you can spend 1 ki point as a reaction to cause that attack to hit one creature of your choice, other than the attacker, that you can see within 5 feet of you.
Drunkard's Luck
Starting at 11th level, you always seem to get a lucky bounce at the right moment. When you make an ability check, an attack roll, or a saving throw and have disadvantage, you can spend 2 ki points to cancel the disadvantage for that roll.
While prone, any attacks against you by creatures within 5 feet of you do not get advantage.
Intoxicated Frenzy
At 17th level, you gain the ability to make an overwhelming number of attacks against a group of enemies. When you use your Flurry of Blows, you can make up to three additional attacks with it (up to a total of five Flurry of Blows attacks), provided that each Flurry of Blows attack targets a different creature this turn.
