Headhunters’ Evaluation

Potential Staffing: Research, Combat Support, Anti-Vampire Ops

The Monk is a Flanker, but his primary ability is to terminate Vampire resurrections. If he is able to deliver the final blow to a Vampire, the Vampire will be unable to resurrect and will be lost forever, even if he was at the highest level.

Thus, this holy man is invaluable in any scenario in which you end up facing Vampires. In such situations, grab as many as you can. Build them their own little priory off in some corner of your dungeon, so they won’t get on your monsters’ nerves.

When not fighting Vamps, the Monk is a decent researcher. In combat, his spells tend toward the protective, making him better at backing up other creatures than at leading the charge himself. His value as a recruit in the absence of enemy Vampires is marginal, although his combat support abilities do fill a unique niche in your order of battle.

He can also make a fine researcher, but if fighting off Vampires, he should really be trained up to withstand the Vampires’ vicious attacks.
