Arcane Monks
The subtle force that is Ki can be manipulated in a million different ways. Some use it to empower their unarmed strikes, weapons, or to shield their bodies from Poison and Disease. What is almost unheard of, however, is the ability to suffuse one's Innate Magic with ki. Enter the Arcane Monk. His magic comes through strength of body, not strength of mind. Through intense training, he has learned to manipulate his ki to mimic spells of a certain nature. Flashy spells such as a Fireball are beyond his ken, but he has many transmutation and other evocations at his disposal. This Class brings a Much Needed Update to AEG's Magic: Arcane Monk.
Making an Arcane Monk
Abilities: Strength is the most important ability to an Arcane Monk, as it controls his Spellcasting as well as the strength of his unarmed strike.
Races: Of the Common races, Humans are most likely to adopt this class, due to their natural willingness to study new forms of magic. Half-Orcs throw themselves into the martial training with fervor, as most Half-Orcs are faced with steep hurdles to learn magic, they jump at the chance to not just learn a style, but to master it entirely. Wisdom and Dexterity are just as Important to them as normal Monks, and Constitution even moreso, due to their Lower HD.
Alignment: Any non-chaotic.
Starting Gold: 2d4×10 gp
Starting Age: As Wizard.
