AAs and Prestige

Those who desire to engage in graceful, hand-to-hand martial combat will find the Monk profession to be an exciting path. The Monk is a spiritual combatant who practices philosophies of mind-over-body. The Monk is best served on the front lines where their advanced physical skills are most effective against their foe.
