Granted, the NWN engine does not really support these abilities, but can I RP my monk having them during times where the Wall Climbing and Fall would be of use?
Thanks in advance
The Advanced D&D 2 edition Players Handbook has this about monks:

I would recommend reading over the 3.x versions of the monk abilities. The monk's abilities were changed in 3.x. However, the answer is still the same on FRC regardless of whether you're looking at the 3.x or AD&D versions. The answer is that it depends on the DM at the time. The NWN engine does not grant monks those powers, so if you're in a DM Plot and ask the DM to use RP abilities, the DM may or may not let you use them, at their discretion. This is true of other class abilities that your class doesn't have through the game engine as well. You can generally RP abilities outside of DM events as long as they're providing no mechanical benefit, but as soon as they start doing something substantial, it's up to the DM at the time whether they work, or can be done at all. If you attempt to use an RP ability without consulting the active DM at the time, you may find that the active DM does not acknowledge those abilities, regardless of whether you've used them before. I would strongly advise you to look at the 3.x version of the class though, not previous (or more recent) incarnations. The 3.5e version of the monk can be found here (linking to d20srd.org): www.d20srd.org/srd/classes/monk.htm It has some differences with the 3.0 version of the monk, but I don't know where that version can be found online.

Thanks for the explanation, Munroe.
That source has this about the ability, but I gather that it is still up to the DM to grant it or not since it is not supported in the game.
