I've put together a variant monk, because I wasn't really happy with the RAW character class. It seemed a bit haphazard and incoherent, but I'm not really a kung-fu fanatic so maybe I just don't get it.

Anyway, my setting is this kind of bizarre Japano-Greco-split, but what I'm trying to do is make a monk class that will actually be associated with a temple and a god of some sort - which I figure is what monks should be all about. So I've replaced a bunch of the abilities that I never really liked in the first place and added in some divine spell-casting powers. I used the paladin as my point of comparison here. I hope it turned out okay.

The Hermit Ascetic is available here (http://www.geocities.com/dj_skrap/ascetichermit.html), and I'd love any feedback on it. I've also been trying to work in some prophetic powers, in line with a Delphi sort of feel (but also related to the yi jing, which yes, I know is Chinese), so any suggestions on how I could do that I am very open to. I should prolly keep fiddling with the name too.

So where is the hermit spell list? Have you not finished compiling it yet?
