Shaolin Temple
Monks Page
The Monk!!  I believe this character to be one that is played as you see it in your mind. I also believe it to be one of the most versatile. My monk is hopefully patterned after the ancient Shaolin Monks.   But there are all kinds of monks...so you have lots of room to be creative.
The Monk wears no armor, if he does, it lowers his resistances.  He uses no weapons, fights barehanded.  Wisdom and dexterity are most important to this character.  For if you have no armor or weapons, you need to be able to evade well.  The monk also will learn to heal himself when he has progressed some levels.  He also learns many feats that are different from those learned by other professions.  Those feats are learned almost each level when young. 
One will allow you to stun a creature, called Stunning Fist.
The healing one is called Lesser Chi Healing.
Beginning stats for the monk should be similar to these:

   Strength  16                   Intelligence 12                     Wisdom  14
   Stamina  14                    Agility 12                         Coordination 14

     Every fourth level you can add one point to one of your stats... so remember to do so!  And when you are ready to choose secondary class, you could need to train something different.
     Also remember that the race/stat difference needs to be taken into consideration.
    Once the Monk has reached his/her fifteenth level of study, they can choose another path for themselves.  The choices are: Martial Artist, Shaman, Mentalist, or Druid.  
     As of this point in time, only the Druid Guild and Martial Artist Guild are open.
   I received this bit of information from Saphyre, one of Eaxia's most famous and most loved Monks.   To become a Druid the monk must attain 15th level first. 
    
( Saphyre also recommends starting stats of 16 strength, 16 wisdom, and 16 dexterity. ){Under the old system} So as I have said previously on the main page, although stats are EXTREMELY important to start off, tis a matter of preference and what works for YOU!! 
     Saphyre also reminded me that most of the monks awesome feats are not in working order at this time.  But they are very much on the drawing board.
