History

Trials of Mana

The Monk is Kevin's class-2 on his light path. He can either be promoted at level 38 to the Divine Fist with a Gold Aura or the Warrior Monk with a Silver Aura. Regardless of the player's Class 3 evolution, becoming a Monk will select the Beast King as Kevin's Class 4 evolution.

Game Description

2D Version

Finding the call to arms being that of the fighting spirit, the Monk finds solace in the belief that it is within the affairs of the heart and soul that a martial artist derives their strength from. Along with taking up the vow that justified force must be that of equal and necessary power to the fight before them that lies ahead, the Monk also turns to the ways of internal development and discipline to reinforce their affirmations and motivations. From this, Monks find the interval where willpower and spirit is turned into strength and action, and train themselves to ready their mind and heart to give their utmost conviction in battle, coming to learn that power is not just through strength, but to being able to apply themselves with skill, technique, and cunning in the face of life's challenges.

3D Version

A balanced warrior class. Good at both healing magic and fighting, Monks can support both themselves and their allies during battle.
