==Student of Kung Fu==

The Student of Kung Fu is a new take on the Traditional DnD Martial Artist, combining aspects of the Ranger and Monk along with some potent supernatural abilities that make a deadly warrior in almost any situation. Although not as proficient in Unarmed Combat as the Typical Monk, the Student of Kung Fu Makes up for this with focused weapon specializations that gain in power as the Student of Kung Fu gains in experience.

===Making a Student of Kung Fu===

Like a Ranger, a Student of Kung Fu picks a Fighting Style that defines their abilities for their entire career. There are multiple styles to choose from, each with it's own strengths and weaknesses. More on these are discussed later.

'''Abilities:''' Wisdom is important to Students of Kung Fu, as it determines the effectiveness of some of their abilities and improves their AC. Strength is important for damage and chance to hit. Dexterity is needed to improve AC and Reflex Saves, and finally, Constitution helps make up for their smaller hit dice.

'''Races:''' Of the common races, Humans are the most likely to take up this class. Their natural adaptiveness combined with their unquenchable thirsts for studying new ways to kill eachother draw many to this class. 

'''Alignment:''' Any

'''Starting Gold:''' 2d4&times;10 gp.
