Source Player Core 2 pg. 179
Monastic training has taught you martial arts and allowed you to hone your mind, body, and spirit.

Multiclass Monk Characters

The monk archetype is a strong choice for any character who fights unarmored or with unarmed attacks. Multiclassed monks are typically more centered, philosophical, and disciplined than other members of their class.
  • Barbarian monks with the animal instinct can combine the barbarian's excellent unarmed damage with the monk's diverse unarmed special abilities.
  • Champion monks are perfect for champions of Irori or other deities who favor unarmed attacks.
  • Fighter monks can supplement free-hand fighting and add mobility to the fighter's toolkit.
  • Rogue monks are incredibly effective because stances grant some of the best agile finesse attacks and flurry gives more sneak attacks.
  • Spellcaster monks can augment their combat abilities with haste, runic body, or similar spells to mix magic and martial arts.
