This sort of thing is more interesting. But you could go further
6/3/4/7 Wrestle, Grab A/GSP 90k? (Or higher?)
I would have thought AV 8 too high for a monk, the skills above show them moving people around and having only A access controls their development somewhat.

But as has been pointed out above min maxing should always be a concern. Anyway is Cathy supposed to be more Japan than china in the WFB 1980's view of the world?
Shouldn't think so. Hence why sumo is out of place. Monks is a very generic term though, and seem to be every in the eastern mythology.

I thought I would post the changes from the first post here as well. I hope there will be more comments and discussions.

So, I've taken the ideas of others into account and I've made changes to everything. The Empire of Cathay is far to the east (but not across any seas, we don't want to confuse it Nippon, so no Sumo or Ninjas). Like other nations of this world, the Empire is involved in Blood Bowl, but unlike other nations, the sport is tightly controlled by the Dynasty and so Blood Bowl is only played by those that pass rigorous physical and mental tests, as well as they loyalty to the Empire and the Emperor. At times, the lure of Blood Bowl is so strong that even students and young monks from distant monasteries are drawn in to play for sponsored teams. With a level of professionalism not seen in many other teams, (and cash) these teams play hard, with each team member playing a part in getting victory. Many of the positional have Pass Access, so any player could develop into a throw, and with many positionals starting with Nerves of Steel, picking up the ball when surrounded by opponents is an option, as is throwing that ball out of the same situation.

0-4 Blitzer 90k 6 / 3 / 3 / 9 Block, Nerves of Steel, GSP/A
0-2 Monk 100k 6 / 3 / 4 / 7 Dauntless, Jump Up, Thick Skull, GA/SP
