[@Ezmeralda] It would be strange, in times of war. From the books, we know that the Yellows are very cautious- and they likely wouldn't risk losing one of their Healers in training when they aren't ready for battle. You can play a Healer, sure, but if they're that young, they will be stuck in the White Tower/Tar Valon, learning, for the duration of the RP.

I don't expect a healer to be a battlemage- it takes a lot of training in universe to become a Healer to the full capacity needed to help adequately on the battlefield. Unless you're Nynaeve, since she's... the best. Ever.

By the way, I do give Healers credit. I always play defense or heals in games... what was your evidence that I don't???
