I was reading through one of the Pathfinder novels, one of those little popcorn fiction books where characters are defined more by their RPG class than actual characterization, and it being DnD related, got me thinking. Thinking about random/unorthodox race-class combos. And then it hit me; an orc monk.

Not just an orc monk in fact, an orc running a martial arts monastery in the wilderness teaching discipline to the savage races. Where else would I get the image of a gnoll monk in my head? And why not an ogre monk while I'm at it. Or an ogre mage monk... Okay, I'd better stop it before I end up creating Kung-fu Bugbear. But I really should file away that orc monastery for somewhere in Valagn.

And I could beefifize my latest custom Oblivion character build and make a minotaur spellblade aka magus aka duskblade aka eldritch knight. Because I can.
