Unarmed deity
Is there a deity with unarmed strike as his or her favoured weapon? I'm planning on making a Monk (or Chaos Monk) going into Pious Templar.

Re: Unarmed deity
I believe Zuoken has Unarmed Strike as a favoured weapon.
I tried to find a god with War Domain, UAS as a favoured weapon and Luck domain for a WarBardLock I was playing, but no dice.

Re: Unarmed deity
Ilmater, Ilsensine, Pistis Sophia, Talona, The Path of Light, and Yurtrus all have unarmed strike as a favored weapon. Of those, Pistis Sophia (lawful good deity from Book of Exalted Deeds) or the Path of Light (lawful neutral from Eberron Campaign Setting) are probably the best fits - Ilmater is from FR and the other three are all evil.

Re: Unarmed deity
Don't have a deity - follow the principles of monastic martial prowess and good fortune.

Re: Unarmed deity
I think the answer is fairly obvious.

Re: Unarmed deity
The Evil God Zarsus is an unarmed deity (In all fairness he is Batman for the Gods) Unfortunately he does not provide the War domain...

Re: Unarmed deity
Thanks for the listing! I think I'll just have to go with the "no god" route, though I'll have to ask my DM about Pious Templar in that case. Though with that, I can add "find one of my god's relics" to her list of goals!
Now that you mention him, he will likely be my character's greatest opponent. Considering Zarsus is an oppressive, racist, sexist, rule-lawyering evil bastard, he will be in the top three of gods she'd want to take down.
One of the other two is Tiamat.Homebrewer's Signature | Avatar by Strawberries

Re: Unarmed deity
Zarsus, isn't a Sexist, Rule-lawyering, or Oppressive O_O He just teaches his clerics to value Humanity over all else... Doesn't sound to Evil to mean... and besides Zarsus is lawful stupid to the extreme!
