The Way of the Cobalt Soul is a new class option for monks that Matt created. There's more information about it in the Tal'Dorei Campaign Setting, but basically the monks of the Cobalt Reserve tend to be followers of Ioun and so they seek out knowledge, uncover secrets, and solve mysteries.

From a mechanical standpoint, they have several abilities that revolve around gaining knowledge, such as being able to figure out an enemy's stats/abilities/resistances/etc. after striking them, or preventing a creature from telling a lie for 1 minute, and they can gain advantage on various kinds of Intelligence checks by spending ki points. There's more, of course, but if I continue I'm just gonna end up typing out the whole page.
