D&D 5E - 5 APPROACHES TO PLAYING AN URBAN MONK.. Season 3 Episode 49


Listen Later

“Urban adventures can be really fun.  Our group had a good time running and playing an all-urban campaign.  A city can just be a city, or, it can be an entire campaign setting within the confines of city walls.”

 

These are the talking points:

  • FIGURE OUT WHERE YOUR MONK FITS, IN THE URBAN CAMPAIGN.  THEY DON’T HAVE TO BE FROM A MONASTERY OR FORMALLY TRAINED.
  • PHILOSOPHY IS A PIECE OF EASTERN MONK TEACHINGS.  THIS CAN BE MUCH LIKE KNOWING THE NATURE OF THINGS, YOUR URBAN MONK CAN BE WELL VERSED IN THE NATURE OF THE CITY, IT’S POLITICS AND IT’S PEOPLE.
  • DEPENDING ON WHERE YOUR MONK COMES FROM IN THE CITY, THEY MAY NOT BE A PEACEFUL MONK WHO IS A SKILLED FIGHTER BUT QUITE THE OPPOSITE.
  • MAYBE YOUR MONK IS A DRUNKEN BAR PATRON AND HIS FIGHTING STYLE IS AKIN TO DRUNKEN KUNG FU.
  • HOW DO I EXPLAIN KI?
