Western Mantis

Western Mantis style places emphasis on waiting and listening. Beginning when you choose this art at 3rd level, your ability to ready yourself for danger is unmatched. Whenever you take the Ready action, you are also under the effect of the Dodge action until you use your reaction or until the beginning of your next turn.

Starting at 6th level, you can spend 1 ki point as a reaction any time you would be moved from your space or knocked prone to negate the movement. You still suffer any other effects of the action as normal.

Your experience is being connected with the earth heightens your senses. Beginning at 10th level, you gain tremorsense to a range of 20 feet.

By 14th level, your connection with the earth is unparalleled. You can spend 1 ki point as a bonus action to gain a burrow speed equal to your movement speed. You can burrow through solid rock at this speed. This burrowing ability lasts for 1 minute.

Starting at 18th level, you are immune to the effects of critical hits. A critical hit against you is treated as a normal attack.

In addition, when you score a critical hit, you can roll one of the damage dice one additional time and add it to the extra damage of the critical hit.
