I don\'t see why diaboli healers are such a surprise.  Think about it, it doesn\'t matter how good or evil you are, you still need healing.  Healing yourself or your friend doesn\'t make you good.  I think the problem is, too many people associate Healers with being these saintly characters.  Stereotype.

yes what about a cleric who heals for the purpose of evil, perhaps using his knowlege of light and healing to help the dead conquer the living world? doesnt sound to far fetched to me. I mean if you know the stuff your enemy can cast, you also know how to prevent against it and in the case of healing you can use it to heal your own army too. Diabolis are the way to go IMO, although it would be kind of nice to be the only diaboli on the block. You all go play your klyros\' or whatever.. ill stick to the Diaboli.

Hmm yes what if you had a spell that changes the way you recieve damage to:

Get damaged --> Gain HP
Heal --> Lose HP

Then use a spell called \"Full Healing\" which cures all your HP :P

P.S. This is taken from Seymore in FFX....

Edit: Fixed some silly spelling mistakes.

nyah... a necromancer isn\'t really in contact with any divine presence, he just uses his skills in magic to reanimate the dead, without divine aid..

Healing (In DnD) can be either divine or magical. Divine spells come as gifts from gods, while magical spells come from within the caster.

Healing your own army? Pah! If the fools were unskilled enough to get hurt, let them suffer for their weakness!

That\'s what an evil person would say. Sure, he could heal party members, but why should he? I mean, it\'s their fault for getting hurt in the first place, right?

Why here?

Hmm maybe yo\'re trying to say that the Diaboli are beginning to sound like Dark Elves and we shouldn\'t be comparing half-elves to Ynnwn?

It\'s not that an evil person wouldn\'t care about his army. An evil person usually bullies himself to get to the top, killing people along the way. Why should he waste his energies on those that are below him who allowed themselves to get hurt? Better if they don\'t survive, if they have a weakness.

P.S. : Neither I or my character think or act like this, I\'m just getting into the head of an evil guy.

In most RPGs (computer games and pen and paper) healers tend to be clerics, hence divine.

I posted the link, because I am very much in favor of sticking to stereotypes.  Karakth, you said that straying from stereotypes would discourage Roleplayers. I agree.  If PS wants to have red demonic looking characters in it, then they should be prepared to have them roleplayed as \"evil\".  

An easy character for me to roleplay is the overly zealous but not very bright warrior.  I can type in fragments, and call everything evil that way.




Evil healing? Hummph, I say.

Evil warriors are better of dead! And in a shallow grave.   To be \"healed\" with evil magic is worse than death!.  If my hand was healed with evil magic I would cut it off with my good one!
