Stance of the Black Turtle

Prerequisite – 8th level Monk

At the beginning of your turn, you can expend two superiority dice to enter a defensive martial arts stance until the beginning of your next turn. When in this stance, you may not add your ability modifier to the damage rolls of attacks you make. In exchange you gain temporary hp equal to a roll of your superiority die, and once per turn you may roll your superiority die and add it to your AC or saving throw result when subjected to an attack or harmful effect while in this stance.
