Halfling Monk 1

*"Size of the body indicates nothing of the depth of the spirit."*

Ascetic life tempered your endurance, and a doctrine of and helping others tempered your tolerance and compassion. Your kindness and understand you give freely, but your beliefs reserve your wrath and martial arts expertise for the cruel and wicked, especially those who harm the innocent or weak. You wander the world as a righter of wrongs, and an example that the spirit transcends and conquers the material.
