open a door. I happen to know most of them.”
Where strife festers, opportunists are rarely far behind. A land caught between the High Heavens and the Burning Hells overflows with rogues and rakes, and both of those words certainly describe Lyndon.
The recent years of his whirlwind existence have been spent running from place to place, conning locals, seducing ladies, and relieving the unwitting of their drink and money. The threat of imprisonment or an armed guard has never dissuaded Lyndon from living a life of larceny.
Dedicating himself to a conflict against an endless stream of cruel demons and rampaging beasts seems out of character for a man so outwardly charming and unhesitatingly selfish. There must be more to Lyndon than his lust for wine, women and wealth.
Mustn't there?
Lyndon fights with ranged weapons, allowing him to keep his distance from the beasts and cultists that, really, it's your job to deal with anyway. In battle, he fires quick bolts and arrows at your enemies to cripple them, stun them, or do moderate single-target damage. Lyndon also carries pieces of unique equipment with him, mementos of a life guided by wit and luck, like loaded dice and hidden pouches. These souvenirs improve his ability in combat as much as, if not more than, the jewelry and other trinkets he stockpiles.

"Hokey religions and ancient weapons are no match for a good blaster at your side, kid."
"Look, Your Worshipfulness, let's get one thing straight. I take orders from just one person: me. "
"Get in there, you big furry oaf! I don't care what you smell! "
"Scoundrel? Scoundrel? I like the sound of that. "

My first reason is the dynamic of their gameplay. Both employ a fast pace of combat. the monk runs in headstrong while the Scoundrel will provide ranged support. In the event where the Monk must retreat, the Scoundrel may cover his back while he gets away.
My Second reason is the conflicting lifestyles of the two. Blizzard has noted that each class (monk, wizard, etc) will speak and act differently to the setting of the area and characters they are with. I believe that the Monk will have somewhat interesting conversations with the Scoundrel and a unique relationship with him. One leads a life of pure righteousness while the other a life of larceny. Yet both for reasons or another have the singular goal of weeding out evil.
