Mendicant

The Mendicant is a better more devoted Acolyte. He is more efficient at healing and clearing status effects. He has an Interrogate ability that automatically succeeds. He can grant the Holy keyword to a Hero (not a Malice Hero). He can limit an enemies use of FD and can even Resurrect. And he is much better with a hammer. The Mendicant is a better Acolyte in every way. Better courage, better Vitality, and better Faith. This allows the Mendicant to approach leveling up two different ways. The extra Faith along with Faith from the items he is sure to have allows him to replace Pray cards with new abilities giving him a lot of different options. Or, he can keep his Pray cards and turn the two or three Faith based cards he keeps into uber-abilities. Imagine Last Rites with 7, 8, or even 9 Faith. It is monstrously powerful.
