===Campaign Information===

====Playing a Radiant Wave Monk====

'''Combat:''' You are a blaster by any other name.  You fly over your opponent and strike them down with a flurry of ki.  Even if they get in melee, you're still a monk.  Wait, that's not a compelling argument... ah, right, you're still a melee fighter.  And you're probably better than the monk is at this point.

'''Advancement:''' Any monk friendly class works, but even archery themed classes may function with this.

'''Resources:''' Radiant wave monks usually come in twos, a master and an apprentice.  That way the master can die dramatically, propelling the apprentice to become a hero.

====Radiant Wave Monks in the World====

{{quote|Isn't that the name of a Hawaiian king?|orig=Vegetare, [[Agarican (3.5e Template)|Agarican]] Gnome shortly before being destroyed.}}

'''NPC Reactions:''' With all the fancy lasers being tossed about, a radiant wave monk may be confused for some kind of wizard of warlock.  Silly commoners.

====Radiant Wave Monk Lore====

Characters with ranks in Knowledge Psionics can research Radiant Wave Monks to learn more about them.  When a character makes a skill check, read or paraphrase the following, including information from lower DCs.

{| class="zebra d20"
|+ Knowledge Psionics
! DC || class="left" | Result
|-
| 10 || class="left" | Radiant wave monks can project the titular "radiant waves" from their body.  These ki blasts let them use their unarmed strikes at range, with the power of lasers.
|-
| 15 || class="left" | Radiant wave monks can produce a variety of blasts, fly, and even deflect shots.  Taking one at range is difficult.
|-
| 20 || class="left" | Powerful radiant wave monks move apparently instantly and effortlessly, striking at one's own ki and shutting down the body or even killing them.
|- 
| 30 || class="left" | Those that reach this level of success can research specific radiant wave monks, their motives, whereabouts, fighting styles, and other trivia.
