Here’s an idea for a class, the monk!
The monk is a unique close range robe class that uses the weapon - a metal gauntlet to attack. The gauntlet has appeared before, on another concept of mine, the pyromancer: New class idea: Pyromancer
The monk has less range than the ninja, has less health and wears robes so he is naturally squishier, but his ability, the black belt, allows him to channel his martial spirit to dodge incoming damage for a brief moment, but at a heavy cost. If played well, the monk can get in, dodge shots and deal some of the highest DPS in the game.
