Nightshade Monk
Belonging to an order of ancient assassins, the nightshade monks practice sudden blows to pressure points. It is said that the true initiates of the nightshade are capable of delivering blows so quick they cannot be seen.
Class: Monk
Level: 1st-20th
Replaces: Flurry of Blows, Stunning Blow
Benefit: A nightshade monk gain the following class features:
Bonus Feat: A nightshade monk may select [ambush] feat as her monk bonus feat, in Pathfinder she may select a rogue talent instead of a monk bonus feat.
Invisible Strike (Ex): Once per day per monk level, you can make an attack that is so quick that it is invisible. You make one unarmed strike, for the purpose of this attack you are considered to be an invisible opponent. Since the blow is invisible due to extreme speed, effects such as see invisibility or blindsight have no effect, but the Blind-Fight feat and uncanny dodge class features behaves normally.
If the attack hits it deals extra damage equal to your monk level, this extra damage is precision damage and is not multiplied on a critical hit. You may only make a single invisible strike per round.
This ability replaces stunning fist, but counts as stunning fist for the purpose of prerequisites and behave as stunning fist for the purpose of the One Finger feat.
Unarmed Sneak Attack (Ex): A 1st level nightshade monk gains sneak attack +1d6, as a rogue. She may only deliver her sneak attack with unarmed strike. At 3rd level and each 2 levels thereafter, her sneak attack increases by +1d6.
This ability replaces flurry of blows.
