full monk

A radical, permanent transformation undergone by a person, characterized by adopting a life of asceticism, self-denial, lack of material possessions, solitude, and frequent meditation. Unlike your average run-of-the-mill monk, a full monk never showers, shaves, or grooms. They abandon personal hygiene all together. Full monks usually lose touch with reality and hold a variety of bizarre delusions. They often become hermits in remote wilderness or raving doomsayers, predicting the apocalypse on public street corners. Most full monks adopt a strict vegan diet, although some may also consume small insects and microorganisms such as fungi and algae.
