Try this for the link to the helms: http://www.spellflight.com/Spelljammer/SJHelms.htm
If that doesn't work, the main page is www.spellflight.com/Spelljammer
 
I understand your concern about why a Chaotic Good deity would sponsor a
lawful order. My take is that a goddess whose temperment stresses
tolerance and acceptance above all other principals would accept monks
of a more lawful bent. There's a line in A Brave New World that says
something to the effect of a society stressing tolerance should be able
to accomodate savage from the outside world. That's partly what I had in
mind. Do others have a similar problem with Selune being the monks'
sponsors? I suppose I could create a deity with a similar portfolio and
value system.
 
Maybe I didn't word it right but Eilistraee doesn't actually sponsor the
monks. They just liked some of their values, and they saw her followers
as people who weren't tolerated anywhere else. Perhaps I should list
them as allies and de-emphasize a couple of things in their background.
 
I see what you mean about the monk's ability to turn on and off their
Body of Iron and Steel ability at will. I modified it to work more like
stoneskin (which I based the ability off of).
 
I suppose an honorary rank might be a bit much, and the more I think of
it, the title sounds too much like Halo. I'll have to think of a better
name for the ability than Crew Chief. I might look into a green and
black outfit for Thrar Two Crows though. ;)
 
Greater Fury? Oh, heh. Yeah that's a typo, I changed that to Greater
Flurry. I wouldn't want the monks going around and saying "Puppy Power!"
Nor do I see some angst-ridden teenager screaming out "Iron! Palm!
STRIKE!"
 
Thanks for your comments,
-Mike

Selune and Eilistraee are Chaotic Good deities, IIRC. Why would they
have any interest in sponsoring a lawful order? Also, it is easier to
qualify for this class as a Fighter than a Monk. Is that desired?> > > >
