Monk (character Class) - Final Fantasy

In Square Enix's Final Fantasy series of role-playing video games, the Monk (Japanese: モンク) is a character class (or "job"). It is frequently also referred as the Black Belt. In Final Fantasy and Final Fantasy III an upgraded, more powerful form of the class appears, named Karate Master or Karateka (からてか). In Final Fantasy Tactics Advance, Bangaas have the ability to become a Monk.

Final Fantasy games that don't use the job-system usually have a representative for the Monk class. The most well-known is Tifa Lockhart from Final Fantasy VII and Zell Dincht from Final Fantasy VIII.
