=== Unarmed Attack ===
=== Unarmed Attack ===
At 1st level, a monk gains [[Unarmed Strike, Improved (Feat)]] as a bonus feat. A monk's unarmed attacks may be with fist, elbows, knees, and feet. This means that a monk may make unarmed strikes even if her hands are full. There is no such thing as an off-hand attack for a monk striking unarmed. A monk may thus apply her full Strength bonus (or Dex bonus, see Versatile Attack) on damage rolls for all her unarmed strikes.

Usually a monk's unarmed strikes deal lethal damage, but she can choose to deal [[Non-Lethal Damage]] instead with no penalty on her attack rolls. She has the same choice to deal lethal or Non-Lethal Damage while grappling.
