I'd like to submit my Einar Monk design: Lee Jun.
Card text:
Spoiler Alert!
NAME = Lee Jun
GENERAL = Einar
PLANET = Earth
SPECIES = Human
UNIQUENESS = Unique Hero
CLASS = Monk
PERSONALITY = Disciplined
SIZE/HEIGHT = MEDIUM 5
4 Life
6 Move
1 Range
3 Attack
3 Defense
60 Points
Bending Reed Stance:
If Lee Jun is attacked by an opponent's figure and at least 1 skull is rolled, and Lee Jun receives no wounds from the attack, place a Stance marker on this card, up to a maximum of 3. After attacking with Lee Jun, you may remove 1 Stance marker from this card, if you do, you may attack again.
Melee Combat Expert:
Lee Jun rolls one additional defense die for each opponent's figure he is engaged to.
Stealth Leap 25:
Instead of his normal move, Lee Jun may use Stealth Leap 25. Stealth Leap 25 has a move of 3. When counting spaces for Stealth Leap 25, ignore elevations. Lee Jun may leap over water without stopping, leap over figures without becoming engaged, and leap over obstacles such as ruins. Lee Jun may not leap more than 25 levels up or down in a single leap. If Lee Jun is engaged when he starts his Stealth Leap 25, he will not take any leaving engagement attacks.
Known Synergies:
- Master Lao Xin
- Master Win Chiu Woo
- Sacred Band
- Ebon Armor
- Count Raymond
Balance/Playability: Lee Jun is naturally swingy, just like the squad. In a mostly melee fight where he can engage plenty of figures, He'll be amazing. Against Range he'll fall as fast as any of his fellow Monk Heros. His Bending Reed Stance can be great with some hot dice, and it's especially good when you can engage an Enemy hero who has Multiple attacks, but it's only as good as your defense rolls. You'll occasionally have an amazing game where he always gets his markers, and can wipe the board, but most of the time the ability is no better than double attack, and it's often worse due to it's inconsistency. Realin of course can help, but as a Melee figure, that's still pretty inconsistent to set up, and have it work out. As long as you don't attack Lee Jun, he can only attack you once. From my experience he averages about 60 points worth of damage in most games, so that's where I've priced him.
The figure used is a D&D figure from the "Giants of Legend" wave called "Scarlet Brotherhood Monk".
There is also a promo figure that has white clothing instead of red, but it is extremely rare, and expensive, so I didn't count it towards the availability.
I was able to find these quantities:

This gives a grand total of 85 at this time. There were around ~120 a couple months ago when I checked. Hopefully the supply comes back.
