Jaes believes in keeping religion where it belongs, close to your heart and out of others' ears... which isn't exactly Kara's approach
. He'll answer questions, but if he feels the conversation getting heated, he's just not gonna talk about it.
With a hybrid class, you can only do each class's encounter heal once per encounter (so one Healing Word, one Inspiring Word), but he also has some other healing stuff, such as an encounter that allows an adjacent ally to spend a surge, and he took the Bardic multiclass, so he has Majestic word twice in a single encounter per day. He actually has more healing powers than Arku did, but also the ability to dish some decent damage (not great, but better than the bear) and Commanding Strike will let me order an ally to attack on my turn, so I can throw the standard over to Zeke or Kara, anyone who can hit an enemy adjacent to me, whether they're stronger against AC than me, or can hit a different defense that may be weaker than the opponent's AC, which will also fit with his personality.
