-

-
CoG!

Zhentarim….go with a winner
-
Knightly Order of Mk'akta. We're not exiled, and we get DM shagged with nice extras.
-
Apply to be Caleb the Dragonslayer
-
I hear that those Sheriff folks could do with a new recruit or two
-
-
You know what all those CoGs need?
A spanner.
-
-
Will you stop listing factions and start with real concepts?
-
A sorcerer snubbed by one too many mage guilds who seeks his revenge by killing novices.
-
A golem/Warforged who wants to become human/become the greatest tinkerer there ever was, calls himself Render and drinks a lot of beer.

I'd like to see someone on the server do something in regards to a non-religiously (at least as far as the known orders/Gods go) linked monk order. The order could be clandestine and shadowy, ambiguously good or evil. Yet have a very public appearance (behind closed doors, but in plain daylight, sort of) Lot's of different ways to take the concept, but I haven't fully thrashed it out myself, seeing as how my main is very much alive at this point.

Ah yes. I remember an attempt at this not long ago. And did we fall flat on our face. Poor management killed it, but yeah. Has there ever been a living monk-order here?

There was the Order of Zenith last year, monks who were strictly against the Gods. They came a few weeks before Candlekeep showed up, I think.
Super_Hessu, MrMagpie or Jalez could likely provide more info.

Sounds like the problem for that was one of a rival faction with the same concept (but additional DM backing), appearing at the same time.
I think the reason we haven't seen a greater push for a monk cult/order is because 1)It's a class related faction, for a class typically seldom played, requiring an influx of new characters at the same time. & 2)People perhaps don't understand the monk's esoteric nature. Let's not forget, however, that RL history is rife with monk orders that have had major impacts on world events. The Order of the Knights Templar was one such event, and although I admit my ignorance in regards to ancient Budhism, I believe an argument could be made for how the emergence of early budhist monk orders had a direct impact on the deterioration of the more widespread Hindu faith (by offering up a competing philosophy).
Anyway, I'm stealing the thread, so I'm gonna run away now.
