Female Healer

The Female Healer (also known as the Cleric) is a recurring humanoid class in the Disgaea series first introduced in Disgaea: Hour of Darkness.

Appearance
Female Healers are of course female humanoids, with a full body robe that leaves their cleavage revealed. They wear cuffs with a short chain in between their hands and arms.

Characteristics
They are said to be fallen angels from Celestia who introduced and spread healing magic across the Netherworld. They were originally looked down upon by the demons, until the demons realized that healing magic is necessary in battle. Unlike their male counterparts, they believe healing their wounded comrades is a necessity and thus they are committed to developing their skills and school of magic, which has been growing for thousands of years. They follow the practice of Vinaya, or keeping their eyes closed at all times if possible. It is said that powerful Female Healers rival even the Seraph. Sera Winguard is a famous female healer.

Gameplay
Healers serve an important purpose in learning healing spells which use SP to allow characters to recover HP. With healing, it is possible to have damaged characters continue fighting. These healing spells can be passed to other characters via use of the Master/Student Relationship system.

Since Disgaea 2: Cursed Memories, in which healing spells use the Resistance stat instead of Intelligence, healers have significantly higher RES stats than most classes. Orbs are suggested in order to boost their RES in order to make it more likely that they restore all HP when healing an ally.
