Monk

Monk is a creature class. The monk class is a relatively late addition to the game. Originally, creatures with the word "monk" in their names bore the cleric type, but monk became its' own creature type with the release of the Kamigawa block, and monks printed before that now have both types. Dervish (<c>Whirling Dervish</c>) was also changed into subtype Monk. 
==Description==
Monks are individuals who have devoted their lives to quiet introspection and meditation, though many monks are skilled at magic, martial arts, or both. Some monks live their lives in solitude, while others come together in monasteries. Some monks are devoted to a specific faith, while others seek enlightenment away from religion. Most monks are white, green, or blue in roughly this order, with the majority of multicolored ones occurring in blue/red/white.

==Monk Track==
The "Monk Track" is a test card concept introduced on the Mystery Booster 2 card . It is a scale that mimics the evolution of the Monk D&D core class. A monk creature usually occupies a space equal to its power on the Monk Track. This can be adjusted with Sinecure.
