Ironfang Shinobi: 5e Monk Subclass (Homebrew)
A downloadable mod
Ironfang Shinobi
A 5e Monk Subclass created by T-L-G-T-W, whose head is on fire.
Based on the main character of Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice (2019).
An additional 'dark mode' PDF is also available for download, where the images used for the art for each Shinobi Tool is also made prettier to see against a black background.
-- Summary --
As herein dubbed an "Ironfang Shinobi," your character upon stat-ing into this subclass will lose a limb or part of their body to be replaced with a 'Shinobi Prosthetic.' An esoteric weapon part-mechanism part-magic that will serve your character in mastering that art all Shinobi aim to perfect--the art of killing.
Based on the prosthetic arm from the game itself, Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, the essence of the Ironfang Shinobi subclass is in choosing your Shinobi Tools, providing access to powerful and varied techniques in combat, able to mixed and matched according precisely to your character's style.
You will find the majority of prosthetic tools from Sekiro present in this fan-made module, with some alterations made towards fitting the appearance of Sekiro's real-time action combat to the turn-based strategy of '5th Edition.'
There is also the optional story content/inspiration in the descriptions of the later Shinobi Tools themselves in this module. Written in the style of the original game, while made to be setting-agnostic, so as to potentially fit into the story of any campaign.
