Mastery of the Arts: The Monk gains +3 bonus on all of his Hand-to-Hand or Martial Arts tests.
Raised in Solitary: The Monk suffers -3 penalty on any normal social interaction. This penalty may be overcome through Meditation and gaining experience in normal social environment.
Ascetic: The monks living expenses are minimal, and his body have used to harsh diet, enabling him to consume less than normally.
Without a doubt, The Monk would be excellent at moving silently or shadowing others, but that is not the way of the order. The Silence stands for the silence of the mind, and the practicioners always
true to themselves, presenting oneself as they really are. Still, The Monk is able to hide his presence when the need rises which is different than the Concealment ability. In fact, he might go unnoticed by people even he would remain at plain sight.
He is probably still able to claim most of the surfaces through his excellent Athletics and Acrobatics alone even without having any mastery at the Climbing skill.
INDIVIDUAL GOAL 1: Being accepted as an Initiate of the Inner Circle.
INDIVIDUAL GOAL 2: Acquiring the secrets (Polaris Force) of the Inner Circle.
INDIVIDUAL GOAL 3: Achieve enlightenment. This could also mean that the character is no longer controlled by the player character, and is not sen as human anymore but as a being of higher consciousness.
