There is a group of monks who originally worshipped the god, Gorn. Gorn's prescripts prohibited the drawing of blood of thy fellow creatures, it did not prohibit the use of body to bring people into the light which is the Almighty Blessed Gorn. These monks developed a series of skills based upon a bare-handed fighting style. Through speed and skill these fierce and faithful followers fight with purity of body and soul for the glory of Gorn. Since that time, there have been factions which have split off and started worshipping their own gods. They have, however, maintained the practices that have existed for the past 2000 years.

Worshipping

Monks "normally" worship Gorn, for his bonus to hand to hand damage and other monk related activities. Werredan is also a popular choice, because monk damage isn't nerfed, and you get the nifty werredan xp and hp bonus.

Fighting

Soloing: Soloing is possible, especially with a gorn worship. Go for as much AC gear as you need... that's general advice, but it is mostly dependent on how much hp you have.

Tanking: Monks are great tanks. Remember to keep your hands free (no shields, no swords) for using your monk abilities. Your ac is going to be less than you're use to, but you should be fine with around -700 (that's plenty). Monks are a versatile tank, they have good enough hp, plenty of mana, and inclass rescue and trip. Like always, try to trip if you are just fighting one mob so you don't get the rescue penalty to ac.

Hitting: Uh, monks rarely is ever hit hit. There hitting is some of the worse at hero, of all the non-casting classes.
