I played a monk my first time through the game. IMHO they are to easy once you get to higher levels. If you manage to pick up the gauntlets of crushing you can regularly deal out 60+ hp of damage per round which basically means that most creatures crumble before you. When you tie in the magic resistance it makes them virtually invincible. With hindsight it would have been great to have one in BG1 as they would have been really difficult to play at low levels. I'm considering soloing one to see if it makes them more of a challenge.

On that first game of mine with the monk I ripped through it just to see what the end was like. I finished the game in something like 35 days and only got to 14lvl that's how powerful they are!

Oh yes they get the fighter stronghold.

OK rant over
