Way of the Yellow Rose (5e Subclass)
Way of the Yellow Rose[edit]
Monk Subclass
Monks of the Way of the Yellow Rose serve the god Ilmater and are taught to embody his compassion and endurance. Students undergo rigorous training to endure suffering and take action against those who cause it. To the oppressed and downtrodden, the monks of the Yellow Rose are known as guardians and champions. To tyrants and the enemies of Ilmater, they are feared for their relentless pursuit and near indestructibility.
