At 1st level, your ki point maximum increases by the amount listed in the Ki Points column of this class’s table. The number listed is the overall gain, not the individual increase per level.

Instant Transmission

At 1st level in this class, you can focus your ki to teleport. In exchange for half your movement and bonus action, you can teleport to a creature within your flying speed + 10 feet that you are aware of. This movement does not incur attacks of opportunity.

You may also spend 1 minute (ten rounds) meditating and searching for the Ki or life energy of any being the same plane as you. You must have met this creature before and they must not be behind any form of dimensional or magical barrier blocking teleportation. You may attempt an Arcana check with a DC equal to your ki save +1 for every additional willing creature touching you that you wish to teleport. You may move an unwilling creature as well, but the DC is doubled. Using Instant Transmission in this manner costs 5 ki.

Ability Score Increase

When you reach 2nd level in this class, and again at 6th and 10th level, you can increase one ability score of your choice by 2, or you can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1. You can't increase an ability score above 30 using this feature.

Extra Attack

At 5th level in this class, you may attack an additional time when you take the Attack action. This stacks with any Extra Attack you have from a different class (ex. Fighter)

Biding Restoration

At 6th level, you gain the ability to grow senzu beans. Any plant seed can become a senzu seed for 20 ki points. When planted, they immediately begin to grow for 5 months. This process creates a single bean, and a single seed. Beans must have at least 20ft between them to grow. Each bean counts as 5 days of food and restores 12d12 hit points or 12d4 ki points.

Martial Memory

At 8th level, you may gain one subclass feature from the Ki Fighter class. You can not choose one from the School of the Scientist or Djinn.

Ultimate Self

At 9th level, when you roll for initiative and have no ki points remaining, you regain 20 additional Ki Points.

At 10th level, you can completely ignore your limits when it counts. When you are below 1/4 of your total hit points, you can choose to enter the Do or Die transformation as a free action, exiting at the end of your third turn in this form. This can be used in conjunction with other transformations. In this state, you can not become unconscious, even if you are below 0 hit points, you do not incur penalties from exhaustion, and your ki point minimum changes from 0 to negative your maximum. If you have negative Ki Points when you exit this form, you gain 1 level of exhaustion.

Afterimage Technique

At 2nd level, as a reaction when you are attacked, you may spend 2 Ki Points to move up to 10 feet. This movement does not incur attacks of opportunity.

100% Full Power

At 4th level, you can push your body past its limits, for a cost. As a bonus action for 5 ki, you channel your ki into your muscles, causing them to expand rapidly. Exiting this form is a free action. While in this form, you gain the following effects:

School of the Mind

The School of the Mind was created by a traveling martial artist and a powerful mage. They combined their power to unlock the power the more physical warrior’s mind had sealed away. After some time, he realized that he no longer needed the mage to wield this power and, with the newfound cruelness of his mind, killed him.

You can survive for 3 days in this form, and do not require food, water, air, or sleep. If you come in contact with an unconscious humanoid, you can choose to take over them. You regain all features your previous bodies had, and you gain all non-class features that your new body has. This does not stop Disintegration or any other effect that can permanently kill you.

School of the Supreme Kai

The hierarchy of the kai is headed by four beings known as the supreme kai. As the rulers of the other kai, they are theoretically the most powerful among them. As such, their training goes beyond that of any mortal design, incorporating ancient, esoteric magic into their training.

Additionally, if you have the Backup feature, you may create a new body for 20 Ki Points.

Transfiguration Beam

At 7th level, you gain a unique technique. As an action, you can spend 10 ki to fire a beam from your antenna at a creature within 20ft as a spell attack. On a hit, it deals 10d10 psychic damage. On a critical hit, the creature is transformed into an object of your choosing for 1d8 rounds. If this object is edible, you may use Buu Absorption by eating it. When this time limit is over, the creature takes 2d12 acid damage, exits your body, and returns to normal. If it becomes a weapon and is used to attack, it takes 1d8 bludgeoning damage. Otherwise, when attacked, it takes damage as normal and attack rolls against it have advantage.

• Your size increases by 1 to a minimum of large.

School of the Time Skip

The School of the Time Skip was derived by an assassin who lived for thousands of years. Devising a way to create time anomalies with a minimal amount of ki, he realized just how difficult teaching such a technique is, given the inability to actually observe it, thus keeping the school greatly limited.

Time Skip

At 2nd level, you gain the quintessential technique of this School. As a full turn action, you stop time for every creature but yourself until the end of your next turn. Stopping time in this manner does not have the range or interaction limitations of the Time Stop spell. (7 Ki Points)

At 7th level, as a reaction, you become completely intangible. You can not take or deal any damage until the beginning of your next turn. (4 Ki Points)

Pure Progress

At 10th level, you constantly improve over the course of a battle. Every time you unintentionally fail a Dexterity saving throw that would reduce an effect's damage or are unwillingly hit by another creature's attack, you may attempt a DC 15 Intelligence saving throw. On a success, any attack and damage rolls you make have a +1 bonus. You may gain the benefits of this effect up to 10 times.

Cocotte Zone

At 2nd level, as an action for 5 Ki Points, you can cover a 15-30 foot radius area in a purple interdimensional barrier. No creature can exit a barrier, even through teleportation or dimensional travel, such as by the dimension door spell.

You may destroy a barrier at will.
