The monk is a character class in a number of role-playing tabletop and video games. In those games which follow the ''Dungeons & Dragons'' traditions, monks are characters with martial arts skills and have very powerful strategies. Many role-playing video games include warrior classes similar to the ''Dungeons & Dragons'' monk. The monk class has also found its way into ''NetHack'' and ''Linley's Dungeon Crawl'', which borrow elements of the class from ''Dungeons & Dragons''. Conversely, in ''Guild Wars'' released in 2005, the monk is similar to the cleric class of other popular games, using spiritual powers to heal and purge disease. ==''Dungeons & Dragons''== (詳細はcharacter class in the ''Dungeons & Dragons'' role-playing game which is typically portrayed as a master of martial arts. It is loosely based on the stereotype of Shaolin Buddhist warrior monks. The ''Dungeons & Dragons'' monk specializes in unarmed combat, with no use of armor and only special "monk weapons", such as kama or nunchaku. The monk class, as with other classes of the ''Dungeons & Dragons'' game, utilizes a spiritual element, ''Ki'', that augments their fighting through the use of special abilities gained with experience. These powers and abilities are not traditional magic spells as would be gained from other similar character classes such as clerics and rangers (which also rely heavily on the wisdom attribute). Attacks by an unarmed monk are soon treated the same as a strike from a weapon with magical enhancements. Monks gain increased speed, attacks per round, high saving throws against special attacks, and immunities unique to the class as experience grows. Monks become increasingly difficult to hit because of their dexterity and armor class bonuses. Monks can gain high spell resistances, making them dangerous to mages, but, in some circumstances, can be overwhelmed when attacked by many enemies at once. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Monk (character class)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
