Other Components[edit]
Highlights[edit]
Excelent Reflex saves
This character has pretty good reflex saves, even though his will saves are pretty low.
AC bonus
Lizardfolk's natural armor plus Monk's armor and Duelist's Canny defense turns this guy into a pretty hard skin warrior.
Extraordinary abilities
Most of his abilities work even in places were arcane or divine magic spells have troubles.
Fancy ways to attack
Can attack with monk weapons, martial weapons, natural weapons and unarmed attacks.
Munchkin-Size Me[edit]
Monk’s Belt, any item that provides bonus to wisdom, intelligency or dexterety can raise the defenses of this build.
Side Notes[edit]
Limitations[edit]
Trouble is that he needs to get near his victim to make some damage,and even though he has a pretty high AC is better to be friendly with the party's healer because of the low will saves. Also more than a damage dealer this character is a living shield.
DM Counters[edit]
Difficult terrain, creatures with high AC or spellcasting.
