MONK
SBTI Core Outcome

MONK · The Ascetic

"Bereft of all earthly desires."

🚀 Start Test

Brutal Description

While others are singing karaoke to understand the entanglements of love and hate, the MONK personality chooses to stay home and comprehend the Dao. MONK has already seen through the red dust of the mortal world and doesn't want idlers to disturb their cultivation and break their Dao status. The personal space of a MONK is their barrier, their Mount Sumeru, their absolute domain; it is sacred and inviolable. Trespassers will feel a suffocation coming from the depths of their soul. MONKs are neither sticky nor clingy, because in their worldview, everything has its own independent orbit. Planets maintain harmony in the universe by keeping billions of kilometers apart—why shouldn't people do the same?
