Followers of Sylvandir, the Monks of the Air practice complete detatchment from material posessions and relations, some taking an oath celibacy to ensure they cannot form attachments. The belief is that the less attachment one can have, the less weight on one's shoulders, the more likely one may attain "flight". Attaining "flight" is in reference to a kind of oneness with their beliefs and the will of Sylvandir's will. While legends of people attaining this exist in tales and stories, most accept the belief that this flight is attained after death. The monks may have no more than cloth pants and a shirt or whatever basic clothing is needed to survive the climate. They are allowed one staff for traveling and defence. A monk may defend themselves or others if they deem the protection of another to be just. Some practiced or higher tier monks will involve themselves in the practice of wind magic through the Wylstream. For this reason, it is far more likely that people born of such natural attunement will chase the path of wind. In a way, it's like a natural attraction to the religion.
Monks of Wind and Clouds follow the gentler teaching of the goddess, Aria. These monks are often found to be very helpful travelers who "go where the wind takes them" as they say. They are seen as an omen of gentle rain and sunny days, their presence is favored by farmers.
Monks of storm and lightning, these travelers are hardened and quiet. They are expert trackers and live as rangers, their order is intertwined with the monks of Aria, like a balancing act between the two. Where Monks of Aria are gentle caretakers, Monks of Tsomn are brutal defenders.
