Bio

These mysterious humanoids never speak and live in solitude. It's said that they dwell in secret places, in caves hidden behind waterfalls where they might even establish makeshift monasteries. However, there are many stories of Monks coming to the aid of injured mountain climbers, nourishing them back to health and guiding them along the treacherous mountain paths.

History

The Monks are one of the few Monster species that immigrated willingly to the Monster Sanctuary. In 3 AC, it is assumed that all of the Monks who lived in the mountain lands of the Old World left their hidden domiciles and ventured to the Monster Sanctuary. Perhaps they saw that it was inevitable for the humans of the Old World to encroach on their sacred monasteries and shrines. Indeed, many of the abandoned monasteries left behind in the Old World have since been pillaged and destroyed.

Acquisition

Monk is an optional Champion Monster in the Mountain Path. You can obtain its egg by achieving a 5-star rating and only once per playthrough. Click here for more details!

• Use the Mountain Path Key from Old Buran
• The Monk Champion

1/2

Once you defeat the Steam Golem Champion, Old Buran gives you a Mountain Path Key. Use the key to open the locked door west of the Teleporter Stone. In the next room, the Monk awaits. Alternatively, you can enter from the left entrance once you obtain the Double Jump Boots.

It can also be normally encountered in the Blue Caves. Alternatively, you can obtain its egg by achieving a 3-star rating against the Ascendant Champion. Click here for its location details!

Evolution

Monk can evolve into Ascendant with the Primordial Branch evolution catalyst.
