New artifact The Scorpion Carapace, a suit of scale mail (made of chitin in any variant that has that material) that grants a 1d4 poison sting to the wearer’s attack chain and confers poison resistance when worn. Enchantable to +7 safely.

Monks who have passed through all the “Student of X” titles may go back and speak to the Grand Master to choose an elemental specialization and receive a power related to it. Stone gives a physical damage reduction; Air gives a random extra movement point here and there and a rare chance of dodging an attack. Water automatically counterattacks melee attacks. Fire boosts attacking power or gives extra attacks.
