Tao of Gentleness

"A single touch can mend the body, but a compassionate heart can heal the world."

Philosophy of Harmony
The Tao of Gentleness is a Monk subclass deeply rooted in pacifism and the harmonious flow of life. Practitioners of this path embrace the philosophy that true strength lies not in aggression but in the gentle touch that mends wounds and restores balance. Gentle monks see themselves as caretakers of life, using their knowledge of pressure points and the flow of chi to heal and protect.

Healing Touch Mastery
Pressure Point Healing: Gentle monks have honed their skills to utilize pressure points for healing purposes. They can expel diseases and poisons with a mere touch, or contract muscles to accelerate the natural healing process. This ability makes them invaluable in the midst of battle or in times of sickness.

Chi Resuscitation: At a higher level of mastery, a Gentle Monk can use their chi to revive fallen allies. By channeling the life force within them, they can bring a deceased companion back to life. This act is seen as the ultimate manifestation of the gentle touch, transcending the boundaries between life and death.

Path of Selflessness
Avoidance of Conflict: Practitioners of the Tao of Gentleness strive to avoid conflict whenever possible. They see violence as a last resort and prefer to use their abilities for healing and protection. Gentle monks are often sought after in times of crisis, as their presence is synonymous with salvation.

Material Detachment: Gentle monks embrace a minimalist lifestyle, valuing spiritual growth over material possessions. They wander the lands, offering their aid to those in need, often relying on the kindness of others for sustenance. The Tao of Gentleness teaches that true wealth lies in the well-being of all living things.

Ascension to Oneness
Becoming One with the Universe: The ultimate goal of a Gentle Monk is to achieve a state of oneness with the universe. Through years of disciplined practice and selflessness, they reach a point where their essence is so deeply intertwined with the cosmic energy that they become immortal. When a Gentle Monk's physical form perishes, their consciousness is reborn in a new body, continuing the cycle of life and service.

Eternal Guardians: Those who achieve the zenith of the Tao of Gentleness become eternal guardians of life. They exist beyond the limitations of mortal existence, forever bound to the cosmos. These enlightened beings are revered as saviors, wandering the world and bringing healing and tranquility wherever they go. The cycle of reincarnation becomes a sacred duty, and the Gentle Monk becomes a timeless beacon of hope for those in need.
