Monks are at their best when unarmed. I think a RP Evil Monk would be excellent. In fact, you may want to multiclass the Monkl with a Rogue for some of their benefits (backstab, evade, etc.).

I've been thinking about evil monk assassins for quite sometime. I've been meaning to speak with Silk and Orleron about the feasability of a guild of just these in Avlis...

Yeah that could be done. If you tell me what you want their ideals and philosophies to be, I can create their basic background and you take it from there.

A monk with a weapon? Nah don't do that man, unarmed is the way to go.

But do make sure you keep some magic monk weapons, or failing that <i>something</i> you're proficient with. You'll need it to hit ghosts if you're class level 9 or lower, and you'll need it for those with damage reduction.

And a guild of monk assassins and spies would be awesome.
