'''Weapon and Armor Proficiency:''' You gain proficiency with the flail. You do not gain proficiency with any armor.
'''Monk Abilities:''' Levels in Monk of the Empty Hand count as levels in [[SRD:Monk|Monk]] for determining unarmed damage, flurry of blows, uses of [[SRD:Stunning Fist|Stunning Fist]], and bonus to [[SRD:Armor Class|AC]]. You do not gain any other benefits of that class.
'''Favored Weapon:''' You may now count the flail as a special monk weapon for the purpose of Flurry of Blows.
'''Empty Fist ([[SRD:Su|Su]]):''' You may spend a use of Stunning Blow in order to deal an extra 1d8 points of negative energy damage to a living target as part of any attack made with either your unarmed strike or a flail. The extra damage increases as shown on the chart above, for a maximum of 5d8 at 9th level. If used on [[SRD:Undead Type|Undead]], then they must make a will save (DC 10+1/2 Class Level+Wis) or be unable to act or defend themselves for a number of rounds equal to your Monk of the Empty Hand level.
'''Empty Body ([[SRD:Su|Su]]):''' At 2nd level, a Monk of the Empty Hand gains immunity to all [[SRD:Disease|diseases ]] and [[SRD:Poison|poisons]], supernatural or otherwise.
'''Empty Soul ([[SRD:Su|Su]]):''' Once per day at 4th level, and once more per day at 7th and 10th, a Monk of the Empty Hand may momentarily phase out of existence as an immediate action. This lasts until the start of the character's next turn, at which point they return in the square they were last in, or, if that area would be harmful, in a space adjacent to that square. If used as a reaction to an attack, the attack is treated as having missed, accept it can do no damage and any effects it would apply are completely negated. While using Empty Soul, a clear image of the character remains where they were, but they are immune to all forms of attack, and cannot see, hear, or take any actions.
'''Shadow Step ([[SRD:Su|Su]]):''' At 6th level, a Monk of the Empty Hand may teleport a number or squares equal half their class level times their Wisdom modifier per day as a move action. This does not provoke attacks of opportunity, and may be split up among multiple move-actions.
'''Nihilistic Mind ([[SRD:Su|Su]]):''' At 8th level, a Monk of the Empty Hand may gain immunity to [[SRD:Mind-Affecting Effect|mind-affecting spells and abilities ]] that lasts for a number or rounds per day equal to his or her class level as ''[[SRD:Mind Blank|mind blank]]''. This ability can be activated and deactivated as a free action, even while under the effects of a mind-affecting spell or ability, in which case that ability stops functioning for as long as the Monk of the Empty Hand continues to use Nihilistic Mind, and continues once this ability ends, assuming the duration allows it.
'''Ineffable Being ([[SRD:Su|Su]]):''' At 10th level, a Monk of the Empty Hand has reached the peak of his or her training, and is harder to affect with all things. He or she gains [[SRD:Damage Reduction|DR 5/-]], a +4 Perfection bonus on all saving throws, and a +4 Perfection bonus to AC.
