I mean, I'm a Life Arch Mage fer cryin' out loud, I can heal my whole stack in and out of combat. Why can't this spell be used to protect my pet wolf? She's a good girl with a gorgeous set of teeth, it's just her hit points are a little low, especially when 3 shamans casting Coal Stones are on yon hillock.
What's the point with heroes anyway? They get an injury or two, no big whup. Nothing a potion can't fix.
