Reincarnation, or How I Became a Kobold.

Interesting challenges indeed. Not the least of which being your pitiful Str. checks. Well, I suppose not everyone can be reincarnated as a half-elven sorceress. ;)
That new lousy Strength coupled with the worse Small-sized damage table makes for a pretty bad monk. Serious challenges. :)

It's not all bad!

I actually think you've got some good oout of this. You're two feet tall with a move of 60' (!!!--eat that, gnomes and halflings), as a monk you carry your weapons with you with no encumbrance (flavour text: start specializing in tail-slaps!), and you get a dex bonus, for even better armour class (added to the bonus from being small).

Sure, youlose a bit, but the cool role-playing options open to you, combined with a savvy choice for your next feat should set you right on the path towards continnued enlightenment.
 

All very true. And, you know Zoryn was never about the damage anyway (if e was, he'd be a pretty sad little monk ;)). He's about the roldplaying (heck, you even have a nifty accent). And this adds that much more roleplaying possibilities. Maybe the sorceress will take you on as a familiar....
 

Well, ther's always the Risen Martyr class from BoED. That's really cool to play also.
Have fun with it, and don't get frustrated if you can't do much damage, let someone who hasn't DIED for the team take up the slack!

Actually, I nearly qualify for the Martyred Champion of Ilmater (or something like that, don't have the book in front of me). I do like the idea of being possibly the fastest Kobold on Faerun.

Besides, for a monk of the God of Suffering, what's better than coming back to life as a miserable little lizard guy!
