I get your opinion on the STR monks, however it is a fact that you gave little to none useful answers to my particular questions. I am going to make it work! :P
That's because there ARE no good answers. Your character will have an AC of 14 and 3+6 per level hp. Enemies in BG3 are particularly prone to targeting low AC characters. You will be shot full of goblin arrows and die. Maybe try Shadow monk, since that will make you slightly better at running away and hiding whilst your companions do all the fighting. But you would have to live until level 3 first.
