Way of the Phoenix

Monks of the Way of the Phoenix are champions of justice. They learn techniques to punish evildoers and burn away evil at the seams. They utilize ki to fuel their burning spirit and to punish villains wherever they should appear.

Burning Fist

Starting when you choose this tradition at 3rd level, you can channel ki into your fists to burn your opponent. When you hit a creature with an unarmed strike, you can expend one ki point to deal an additional 1d8 fire damage to the target.

Rekindling the Flame

At 6th level, you gain the ability to channel phoenix's rebirthing flames through your body to another. As an action, you can touch a creature and restore hit points equal to two times your Monk level and temporary hit points equal to your Wisdom modifier. You must finish a long rest before you can use this ability again.

Flames of the Phoenix

By 11th level, you carry the spirit of the phoenix within you. When you would make a death saving throw and you have at least one ki point, you can instead spring back to your feet with a burst of flaming energy. You immediately stand up (if you so choose), and you regain hit points equal to two times your Monk level + your Wisdom modifier.

All hostile creatures within 30 feet of you must make a Dexterity saving throw or take 10 + your Wisdom modifier in fire damage, or half on a successful save.

Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a long rest.

Searing retribution

At 17th level, you gain the ability to embody the will of the phoenix. When you hit a creature with an unarmed strike, you can spend 4 ki points to deal a fatal blow. When you use this action, the creature must make a Constitution saving throw and take 6d12 radiant damage, or half as much on a successful save.
