There once was a powerful monk who was said to rule an entire plane, bringing entire nation under his tyrannic heel, so was his power that none would even dare to defy him. What happened to him was unknown but his legacy lived, manuscripts of his exploit and techniques fell in the hand of a group of power hungry monks. These monks funded the Way of the Tiger Force, a school of philosophy embracing power and dominance over others. From the manuscript they learned of the Omega Strike, a technique allowing the monk to project his ki into a wave of destruction that only an advanced adept of the path can even hope to perform. 

The order quickly fell apart from internal struggle but the teaching lived on, still many evil-aligned monk (and few neutral) seek the manuscript to learn it ancient technique and philosophy. Many take the values outline by the ancient order as code of conduct, but those that truly understand the Way of the Tiger Force know that only the monk himself dictate the way, no code or teaching must take precedence over one's own will. Instead the monk of the tiger force who shall force his will on others.

The Tiger Force is a metaphysical force of predation and domination, the user is encouraged to dominate those weaker than him and completely obliterate those in his path.

====Class Features====

All of the following are class features of the Monk of the Tiger Force.

'''{{Anchor|Monk Abilities}}:''' Levels in monk of the tiger force stack with monk for advancing class features and count as effective monk levels. It does not grant new features you do not have, but pre-existing features (such as flurry of blows, speed bonus, and unarmed strike damage) are advanced. A monk of the tiger force no longer force the lawful only restriction of the [[SRD:Monk|monk]] class. 

'''{{Anchor|Tiger's Pride}} {{Ex}}:''' A 1st level monk of the tiger force use his pride as a tool to better himself, whenever he fail at a d20 roll (be it an attack, save, or skill) he gain a +1 penalty on subsequent checks of that sort for 1 minute. The effect is cumulative (to a maximum of +5). If the monk of the tiger force had the [[Pride (3.5e Flaw)|pride]] this class feature and it cancel each other (he still retain the feat granted by the flaw).

'''{{Anchor|Quivering Palm}} {{Su}}:''' A 2nd level Monk of the Tiger Force gain the [[SRD:Monk#Quivering Palm|Quivering Palm]] monk ability, unlike the monk he may use it once per day instead of once per week.  If he already possessed Quivering Palm or later gain it he instead gain one additional use per day.

'''{{Anchor|Crushing Monologue}} {{Ex}}:''' A 3rd level Monk of the Tiger Force can deliver a crushing monologue as a free action, in order to have effect however he must maintain it as a free action each round. At the start of each round every creature listening to the crushing monologue must make a [[Will]] save or fall under the effect of [[SRD:Crushing Despair|''crushing despair'']] for the duration of the crushing monologue and 1 hour afterward. If a creature manage to damage the Monk of the Tiger Force in a particular round he does not need to make a save against his crushing monologue. The monk of the Tiger Force may use his crushing monologue for a number of round per day equal to 3 + his [[Charisma]] bonus, the use need not to be continuous.

'''{{Anchor|Omega Blast}} {{Su}}:''' A 3rd level Monk of the Tiger Force can project his Quivering Palm in the form of a ki blast, instead of making an unarmed attack he must make a ranged touch attack with a range increment of 20 ft. The ki blast itself deal 1d10 damage per monk level, which applies even if the creature is immune to the quivering plam or succeed it save.

'''{{Anchor|Extinguish Life}} {{Su}}:''' A 4th level Monk of the Tiger Force is able to use quivering palm to extinguish all life. His quivering plalm now work on every living creature, no matter type. The Monk of the Tiger Force may even affect a creature with immunity to [Death]-effect and critical hit is no use. At his option when he kill a creature with quivering palm he may reduce it to dust as per the [[SRD:Disintegrate|''disintegrate'']] spell.

'''{{Anchor|Snuff Life}} {{Ex}}:''' Whenever a 5th level Monk of the strike a creature with less than 5 hit point per class (25 when he gain this ability) he automatically slay it.

'''{{Anchor|Repeated Quivering Palm}} {{Su}}:''' A 6th level Monk of the Tiger Force capable of using his quivering palm repeatedly, he may use his quivering palm at will with a 1d4 round cooldown between each uses.   A creature who succeed it save against your quivering plan become immune to it effect for 24 hours, however not immune to the damage of the unarmed strike used to deliver it or the Omega Blast.

'''{{Anchor|Dominator of Will}} {{Su}}:''' A Monk of the Tiger Force of 7th level or higher may utterly dominate the will of those he could normally kill, whenever he slay a creature using Quivering Palm instead of killing it he may leave it at 1 hit point and force into a permanent [[SRD:Dominate Monster|''dominate monster'']] effect. The creature can be freed as normal, and is automatically freed if the Monk of the Tiger Force is slain.

'''{{Anchor|Tiger's Guard}} {{Ex}}:''' A 7th level Monk of the Tiger Force is a unstoppable force, he is now immune to [Compulsion] and [Fear] effects and cannot become [[SRD:Staggered|Staggered]] or [[SRD:Stunned|Stunned]]. 

'''{{Anchor|Extinguish Existence}} {{Su}}:''' A 8th level Monk of the Tiger Force can wipe the existence of anything on his path, his quivering palm now work against every foes no matter the type. If the Monk of the Tiger Force kill a creature with his quivering palm he may force it into nonexistence, the creature is allowed another [[Will]] save or be completely destroyed as if he never existed. The creature cannot be raised or resurrected from the death except if it soul is restored by a [[SRD:Miracle|''miracle'']] or [[SRD:Wish|''wish'']]. The creature's body is utterly destroyed as well, at the Monk's option he may preserve the equipment otherwise it is similarly lost (except for artifact and other indestructible objects obviously).

'''{{Anchor|Homing Omega Blast}} {{Su}}:''' A 9th level Monk of the Tiger now automatically hit when he use his Omega Blast ability, much like a [[SRD:Magic Missile|magic missile]] spell or a targeted spell. He only need to be aware of his foe and line of effect to the creature, even if it is indirect. The blast is still limited by it maximum range.

'''{{Anchor|Dark Seed}}:''' A 10th level Monk of the Tiger Force is now an avatar of the tiger force itself, he cease to age (reverting all aging penalties he previously received), gain DR 10/good, become immune to vile damage and if slain he return to life as per [[SRD:True Resurrection|''true resurrection'']] a year later at the location of his choice (unless specific effort is taken to prevent his resurrection such as trapping his soul).

'''{{Anchor|Fate Worse than Death}} {{Ex}}:''' Instead of completely wiping out his opponent from reality, a 10th level Monk of the Tiger force may instead force them into a fate worse than death. If a creature fail it save against his quivering palm he may instead of outright killing it replicate the effect of both [[Imprisonment (3.5e Spell)|''imprisonment'']] and [[Eternity of Torture (3.5e Spell)|''eternity of torture'']] with no save allowed for both effects.

==Ex Monk of the Tiger Force==

No such thing, the monk of the tiger force choose his own path. While he may not be non-evil when he take the class if he later turn to non-evil alignment he lose none of his abilities, although he may not advance in the class until he turn back to a more pragmatic alignment. Monk of the tiger force do not usually have a code of conduct.
