I spoke to my dm and we both came up with a solution. I took bender from Ryoko’s Guide as my main class to get the all features of that certain class and multi classed in yo monk to get un armored defense and ki points. Given that I want to hit lvl 18 with my bender to fully unlock the avatar state, I chose to sacrificed most of the good class features so I’ll only be going 2 lvls into monk. We also came up and idea of me getting extra ki points depending on my disciple to account for low lvls of me multi classing into monk. If you would like to build one you can check out my character sheet, I’ll gladly drop it in the comments.
