  • Way of Shadow (Player's Handbook). Mastering the arts of darkness these monks are superior assassins and infiltrators, as Kyme political strife is ever fomenting. Stealthily entering into the vault a lycan werecat initiates her shadowy techniques so the patrols cannot hear her shovel treasure into her pack. An air eleman assassin's victim draws their last breath, stepping into darkness he dissipates, never seen and never heard.

  • Way of Mercy (Tasha's Cauldron of Everything). Vaunted as as both healers and dealers in death, these monks have harnessed the vital essence of life to heighten their prowess. Behind a veil marking them as a priestess of Soel, a celehim bestows a curative blessing to the afflicted. A human seeks to transcend their mortal shell, becoming a vessel of death's volition.
