If a monk gets the tavern brawler feat does his martial arts damage stack with the 1d4 damage given with tavern brawler? IE. Could a 1st level monk deal 2d4 damage with his unarmed strikes if he had the tavern brawler feat?

          No.



          From the Monk's Martial Arts feature:




          You can roll a d4 in place of the normal damage of your unarmed strike or monk weapon.




          From the Tavern Brawler feat:




          Your unarmed strike uses a d4 for damage.




          Both abilities replace the unarmed strike damage die, they don't add to it. So if you have both abilities you would still only roll 1d4.

            I suggest expanding a bit to point out what happens when the monk's martial arts die changes size.
