I'm going to have to call you on reach:
"Astral Self: Monks of this subclass can spend 1 ki point to increase the reach of their unarmed strikes by 5 feet."
Spear only has 5ft reach as well.

Please justify your 10ft reach in some way for use in combat, for picking things up or stretching I'll allow it, but for attack, I'm questioning it.

Hey, it was in the LV3 character sheet you gave us. I didn't write that. I was wondering if I had some feat that granted me reach but I don't know of any. That's why I'm surprised.

Edit:
I found it!
It's about the plasmoid's Shape Self and only applies to my pseudopod.
As a bonus action, you can extrude a pseudpod that is up to 6in wide and 10ft long or reabsorb it into your body. As part of the same bonus action, you can use this pseudopod to manipulate an object, open or close a door or container or pick up or set down a tiny object. The pseudopod contains no sensory organs, can't attack, activate magic items or lift more than 10lbs.

There we have it. Doesn't apply to any attacks. Still I completely forgot I can do that, might be useful. Also I can hold my breath for 1h.

That's why I questioned it because I do vaguely remember something about stretching but that it couldn't attack.

Ooo maybe I'll summon a giant hamster to tow my hooptie like Overlord

[Kashtan]

why not? at least its something unique. how many carriages are towed by a hamster?

but for now the situation sucks. we fought so hard and achieved nothing except blowing our cover. everyones up again and the bandits ran. i hoped we could at least kill the beastmaster. would have been better to use sacred flame. i feared he had high wisdom. Alice and Yulya used almost all their abilities. we gotta rest.

Ashley pls try to kill the troll with the Bigglesworths! that would be glorious! a huge monster finished off by two cute small cats. if it doesnt work Yulya will come to your aid with Toll the Dead. but shed like to use the attack against surviving wolves if you manage to down the troll. She's still 30ft in the air. Shield facing SE against the bandit with the crossbow.
