Description
SUMMARY: This mod is designed for a starting Monk character, and comes with a large range of upgradeable robes designed for single and multi-class monks. The setting is the Island of Jin-Po, which can be imagined as a feudal Chinese island under the control of a Japanese Empire. The possession of weapons is highly illegal, and so the great Master Monk Gouken has begun training students in The Way at his mountaintop temple. Now, as a Novice of the Temple, the time has come for you to take your Initiation, and become a full-fledged Disciple of Gouken. But dark agencies both mundane and supernatural are at work on the Island of Jin-Po, and it will take all your skill and training to prevail. FEATURES: Full supporting cast of NPCs, many with unique and useful abilities and knowledge. Some NPCs (both friendly and enemy) are capable of stealth and ambushes. Two semi-secret side quests for the more advanced player. A unique (I think) system for death and respawning.
Excellent job! It's too bad there doesn't seem to be a sequel, but maybe the author is waiting for NWN II to come out first? The only suggestion I have is that someone in the temple give a little more instructions and advice on the upgradeable outfits. I and some other players took a little while to figure them out.

I solved this problem by; 1. telling Yohko to 'stand guard' by the door 2. Upon polymorphing, I immediately right clicked my character and 'unpoloymorphed' myself 3. Grabbed the death key 4. Killed the bad guys 5. went back to Yohko and told her to 'follow' on my way out the door.

I'm running into the same crash problem in the vestry of death as mentioned by OpiumVanDerPol. I haven't managed to find any solution, unfortunately. If Opium or anyone else who has solved the problem could post the solution here it would be much appreciated.

Can't wait for part 2, still on the work or scrapped?

Great module, unique and interesting monsters and good design throught. My only complaint is that I found some fights to be a bit to hard, I often had to stop and rest between each fight, and that is just boring in the long run.

One of the best class specific mods as well as the best Eastern Asia setting I have seen.

I had forgotten NWN for a little while when I switched computers, but I recently started playing and getting modules again. Your mod was one of two that I remembered and loved well enough to search out and get again (and it was a pretty tough search with all the modules on the vault now, haha). Needless to say, I like this mod a lot, and hope all is going well with you =).

I found a very round-about solution to my problem.
