New Hero for Priestess

OK, so I was going to work on developing a new hero for the Priestess.  Given that Ashlira is a legendary healer and scholar, I was figuring on one of two different types of hero for her.

Option One:

A cleric/priestess hero.  This hero would be geared towards healing and buffing units to provide sustainability for units.  This kind of goes along with the whole theme of them.  I see her unlocking abilities like "Mass Healing" (ala Wellspring), Blessing, and other skills like that.  I could also see her having an ability if possible to absorb damage meant for others (gotta look into that one).  Definitely would be able to unlock other healing type items.

Option Two:

A Holy Warrior hero.  This hero would be modeled after your typical paladin/holy warrior and would work well with the bottom path of Ashlira's sovereign tree.  His skills would be a mixture of combat and healing.  I see him being a mounted unit, so things like Charge and the like would be something he could develop.  I could see him unlocking other special weapons as well (holy sword for example and stuff like that).

What do you guys think?  I'm asking because I'm almost done with my mod for making the Priestess a little bit more interesting.  Moving and renaming some of her abilities, redoing some abilities.  I hope to release it next week for people to test.

Good god, I like them both! Probably would go for #2 just cause its more my play style, but #1 would be cool to play

I'm of the opinion that the paladin-type would be more interesting from a fluff standpoint, treat him as one of her elite captains that she sent out to recruit more soldiers/fight back against the darkness.

 

As a third option, maybe have the Healer hero with minor paladin back up units.
