the academy for whatever reason had a monk from a far away land, your master a 3-foot-tall kobold woman by the name of Ke-fang. from what the other staff and students say she seems to be more of a guess scholar than a teacher as she never takes on any students and some of the other staff and fauitly seems to hate her for how she smalls of burning as all the time. the alchemist seems to be the most vocal of the same agast her for possible be the one sneaking into his herb garden and stealing some valuable "medicinal herbs" from him every once in a while, that and she a scaly beastfolk. one day, while you were meeting with the guidance counselor again to try to decide on a corse for your hero class. Ke-fang was their outside the offices, she wanted to meet with you, she wanted to train you to be a monk.
for 6 years, had you harden your body with intense training, swimming up rivers, 100 pulls-ups every morning, evening and afternoon, and tenderizing the local butcher's meat with your bare hands. all while your surprisingly heavy master is on your back instructing you the whole time. You open your spirit with guided meditation, and a surprisingly large amount of drugs, especially for the school setting or that the Ke-fang would still be up for physical conditioning after doing 12 hits of acid and half an herb garden of weeb. Finally opening your mind with the readings of philosophy from lands farther east and magics known as "Chi."
"you have done well my student, very well" she said passing you the chi-infused blut to you in the meditation chamber that is in a completely different part of the school property. she gives a pained cough, wiping some blood from her snout, shes been sick for sometime now. the village healer said it don't look good and the clerics on campus have been talking to her about burial rites.
"thank you, master...what can I do for you" you say as you take a hit from the blunt.
"I...will pass on to the join the other before me...I have teach you everything I know and you have done me proud but you got a long road ahead of you"
your master tells you of a temple of a far of land that she would like to be bared at. the monks their can help you master your skills...and awaking your soul for you have a destiny but she cant say more.
a week later, the hour that your master's wake was finished, you getting your stuff ready, your robes, your staff, a tea set and mate and a jar with the ashes of your master. it will be a long road but one that needs to be traveled.
