Monk

A Monk is the male counterpart of a Nun. Monk is Athenian for Holy Teacher. Extremely devout to the faith Monks never marry, never seek out romance, and study all day. They write the majority of copies of the Big Book of Ancient Gabanian Fables. They run the 2 Schools for Priest. They are located in Citta Atena and St. Bishop

History
It is widely accredited that the first monk was St. Bishop the First, also known as the giver, the first man created by the Mother Goddess Pallas Athena. Although Bishop would marry Athena and later on be just as revered as a God, His doctrine's ordered that there would and must always be a monk, a teacher so that Priest may know how to be priest. Since St. Bishop, no other Monk has ever married or thought of romance that is why Female Monasteries are separated from Male Monasteries.

Dress and Duties
Monks must wear long coverings known as Saladomes made of Cotton or Wool of Plants. As with all other Athenians the Monks follow Koshem how ever they fast most of the day and rely on just one meal a day. The Duties of the Monks like their Nun counterparts is to teach tomorrows Priest. Technically Monks are Priest in themselves as they teach and preach the will of the Gods, how ever they themselves do not interpret the will, they can only teach it.
