Monk > Master

The masters of unarmed combat, they are capable of decimating their opponents without the use of either armor or weapons. Rather than use such cowardly tools, they prefer to rely only on the combined strength of their body and mind. They replicate the forces of nature into various fighting stances, each with their individual advantages and strengths.

When you have 100 combination resource, you may agree to give up both of your next attacks to perform a combination attack with a melee range ally. This kills the man. Or at least fucks them up.
7. Show Them Your Power Level Daily Attack
Unleash the full force of your power upon an unsuspecting soul, and hit them with a single devastating unnarmed strike. This fully drains the target’s morale if applicable, and their allies must roll checks to see if they are feared for the next round. This also deals (A fuck ton) in physical damage to them.
8. No. Daily interrupt.
When an enemy tries to affect you with some sort of mental based attack, status effect or other reasonable and similar effect, you may beg to differ frather.

During this time you are immune to status effects and healing, and you take half your health in true damage at the end of every round for the remainder of the time you are conscious. While this skill is active, if you are at 50% or lower hp you gain an additional attack per round. If you are at 25% or lower you gain an additional action. At 10% or lower you cannot critically fail.
