Cleric

The Cleric (Japanese: そうりょ Souryo; Priest) is a job in Miitopia, and one of the six jobs available at the start of the game along with the Warrior, Mage, Thief, Chef, and Pop Star. As such, it is one of the jobs that are playable in the Demo. The Cleric is also featured in Miitopia: Casting Call as a party member together with a Warrior, a Mage, and a Cat, and is one of the two main characters in the "Camaraderie" trailer alongside the Mage.

In the international promotions for the Nintendo 3DS version, the Cleric is depicted by a female Mii named Sarah. A different Mii also named Sarah is shown as the Cleric in the Miitopia - "Adventure awaits your Tomodachi Life friends!" trailer. Another Mii named Nana (なな) appears in Japanese promotional material. In the announcement trailer for the Nintendo Switch version, the female Mii representing the Cleric is named Beth by Nintendo of America and Rio (リお) by Nintendo of Japan. A different female Mii used in other overview trailers is named Yuko in the Western region trailers and Kaede (かえで) by Nintendo of Japan.

Gameplay
As mentioned in the Cleric's in-game description, the job plays a support role, specifically acting as the healer of the party. Nearly all of the Cleric's skills focus on recovery, with only a couple of offensive skills in Righteous Anger and Aura. The Cleric is able to recover its teammates' HP, revive downed teammates, and revert debuffs, and thanks to its high Magic, MP, and Speed, this job particularly excels as a healer. In the Nintendo Switch version, a Hero with the Cleric job can use the Horse-Whispering Cleric assist, which is an all-target magic support that restores all allies' HP fully and MP by half their maximum and revives all knocked out allies. The Cleric's biggest drawback is its low Defense, making it vulnerable against physical attacks.

The Cleric uses the Staff as a weapon, which increases the Attack and Magic stats. The preferred clothing are the Vestments which raise Defense. The Cleric is able to wear amiibo costumes as well. Every Vestment comes with a hat as headpiece.

Role in Miitopia: Casting Call
In Miitopia: Casting Call, the Cleric is a member of the party led by the Warrior. They wear the Novice Vestments by default, but the player may also have them wear the Frilly Vestments, the Matryoshka Vestments, and the Polka-Dot Vestments.

The Cleric is introduced in "Chosen Ones" along with the Warrior, the Mage, and the Cat as they all face off against the Dark Lord in his castle. The party's faces then get stolen save for the Warrior's, who proceeded to battle the Dark Lord alone.

In "Venture Forth", the Cleric travelled with the party to Greenhorne Castle, where they get introduced to the King and the Princess of Greenhorne. The party then set out on a journey to save the Princess after her face got stolen, with shenanigans occurring along the way, which include the Cleric being complimented by the Cat on their clothes. When the party finally encountered the General "Mii" who possessed the face of the Princess, the surprised Cleric is shown talking to the Mage, presumably about the monster.

The Cleric has a more prominent appearance in "Camaraderie" as a main character along with the Mage. The trailer showcased the two Miis and their growing bond as they continue to spend time together. However, their relationship started to show strain when the Mage became jealous from seeing the Warrior gift a present to the Cleric. The resentment turned mutual when the Mage slighted the Cleric by making them trip, resulting into trouble between the two. Despite these events, the Cleric still protected the Mage from a Kind Golem's attack by sacrificing themself, and in turn, the Mage avenged them by finishing off the enemy. Some time afterward where the two are implied to have made up, the Mage asked the Cleric if they had anything they wanted to get off their chest, to which the Cleric replied that they will tell the Mage after their journey is over.

Trivia

 * The Cleric and the Mage are the only jobs to have unique animations for Get Serious and Slack Off.
 * A QR code supposedly containing data for the pre-made female Mii representing the Cleric can be found on the official website for the Nintendo 3DS version of Miitopia . However, it is actually the QR code for the pre-made male Mii representing the Warrior named "boy," meaning the code was mistakenly posted twice.
 * The Mii representing the Cleric in Japanese promotional material for the Nintendo 3DS version reappears as the Mischievous Witch in the Nintendo Switch version, albeit with a different hair color and eye color.
