Naryan Class Options: Way of the Unblinking Eye Monk

Monks are disciplined warriors who find balance between mind, spirit and body, honing their energy--their ki-- into supernatural techniques that enhance their offensive and defensive abilities in battle. Each monastery has different ideals that inform their disciplines; some are guardians who learn mastery of the body to defend their order, some are stealthy assassins who move like shadows to seek out their enemies and destroy them, and some master the elements to help the people with mage like abilities. Others are scholars who seek knowledge. Some go too far.

Some monks look for answers to questions that no mortal should ask. And sometimes someone answers. The answers they give are not for mortal minds to bear. The monks that survive and keep guard the world from these truths are the monks of The Unblinking Eye. They are corrupted by the void, the mysterious enigmas of space and time, and by forces beyond even the gods. Yet, they manage to contain the madness, tame the impossible and repurpose it as armor and weapons against their foes.

The Unblinking Eye monks are interested in attaining knowledge, protecting forbidden knowledge, and protecting the world from the forces that would corrupt it.

Corrupted Ki

Starting when you choose this path at 3rd level, your mind echoes out of itself as it tries to escape the horrible truth. You can communicate telepathically with any creature you can see within 30 feet of you. You don’t need to share a language with the creature for it to understand your telepathic utterances, but the creature must be able to understand at least one language.

Also, you can spend a ki point to add your proficiency bonus to an Arcana, History, Nature or Religion skill check.

Also, your ki has been corrupted by the unknowable knowledge that you learned but cannot unlearn. You gain the ability to disable your opponents with your ki. Whenever you hit a creature with one of the attacks granted by your Flurry of Blows, you can impose one of the following effects on that target:

• It must succeed on a Constitution saving throw or be blinded, deafened, or poisoned until the end of their next turn.
• It must succeed on an Intelligence saving throw. If they fail, the creature can't cast spells, use psionics, activate magic items, understand language, or communicate in any intelligible way until the end of their next turn.
•  If the target can hear you (though it need not understand you) or your thoughts, it must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or take 1d4 psychic damage. The psychic damage increases to 2d4 at 5th, 3d4 at 11th, and 4d4 at 17th.

Fading Spirit
Starting at 6th level, you gain the ability to destabilize reality to blink in and out of existence. As a bonus action, you can spend 2 ki points to cast blur or misty step.

Reforged Mind
 By 11th level, you have learned ways to shield your mind from invasion. Your thoughts can’t be read by telepathy or other means unless you allow it. Furthermore, you cannot be charmed while conscious and have advantage on saving throws against abilities that would compel your actions.

You also have resistance to psychic damage, and, whenever a creature deals psychic damage to you, they must make a Wisdom saving throw or take your monk level in psychic damage.

The Ethereal Eye
At 17th level, by gazing into the void, you have obtained truth. You gain true sight up to 120 feet. You can see in normal and magical darkness, see invisible creatures and objects, automatically detect visual illusions and succeed on saving throws against them, and perceives the original form of a shapechanger or a creature that is transformed by magic.

Furthermore, you can see into the Ethereal Plane and interact/affect creatures and objects within the ethereal plane as if they were part of the material plane.
