Class Features

All of the following are class features of the White Belt.

Weapon and Armor Proficiency: White belts are proficient with club, crossbow (light or heavy), dagger, handaxe, javelin, kama, nunchaku, quarterstaff, sai, shuriken, siangham, sling, and unarmed strikes.

White belts are not proficient with any armor or shields.

When wearing armor, using a shield, or carrying a medium or heavy load, a white belt loses her AC bonus, as well as her fast movement and rapid blows abilities.

AC Bonus (Ex): When unarmored and unencumbered, the white belt adds her Wisdom bonus (if any) to her AC. In addition, a white belt gains a +1 bonus to AC at 9th level. This bonus increases by +1 at 18th level. These bonuses to AC apply even against touch attacks or when the white belt is flat-footed. She loses these bonuses when she is immobilized or helpless, when she wears any armor, when she carries a shield, or when she carries a medium or heavy load.

Bonus Feat: At 1st level, 6th level, and every six levels beyond a white belt may select any Monk type feat as a bonus feat. Unlike the monk they must have the prerequisites required with exception to Stunning Fist. White belts count as monks for the purpose of pre-requisites.

Stable Vitality (Ex): The 2nd level white belt automatically stabilizes if dying.

Rapid Blows (Ex): The 3rd level white belt is not as good at rapid attacks as a monk. On a full attack they may take a swift action to gain an additional attack at their highest attack bonus with any monk weapon, but takes a -2 penalty on all attacks in that round. This never scales beyond one extra attack. It counts as flurry of blows for pre-requisites.

Slow Fall (Ex): The 4th level white belt gains slow fall as a monk of their level, except it is equal to 10 ft per two class levels.

Save Training (Ex): The 5th level white belt is slightly better than their poor saves suggest. They gain a +1 insight bonus on all saving throws. This increases by 1 at 11th and 17th level.

Wholeness of Body (Ex): : At 7th level or higher, a white belt can heal her own wounds. She can heal a number of hit points of damage equal to twice her current white belt level each day, and she can spread this healing out among several uses.

Evasion (Ex): The 9th level white belt gains evasion as a monk.

Striped White Belt (Ex): The 20th level white belt wins being an NPC, and gains damage reduction 5/magic.
