Originally just trying to combine Mike9k1's Tension mod with Tellah9's Mage Hero mod, it kinda turned into a mesh of changes I wanted to implement. Such as turning the males into the casters and the females into physical fighters. This doesn't change who can equip what besides the Hero being able to use wands now. However I haven't fixed the wands added by Tellah9 from being called <end> it doesn't bother me enough to fix it at the moment. Basically, this is a personal mod turning the characters into what I wanted them to be, which originally was just making Eric the main healer and became so much more.

Some example of changes:

Eric now basically has Serena's spellset with a few extras. He has become the party's main healer.

Sylvando has mostly become the aliment master, originally I had him as the main dps mage, but missed his antics.

Rab is now our full dps mage. Throwing out every elemental spell aside from Zam and Whoosh to keep variety. 

The girls have lost all spells. Yes even Jade can't transform anymore. They are warriors now. Warning, Veronica's staff is practically useless now, recommend using the whip for her, but it's up to you.

This is just a summery of the character changes, all changes to the player from Tellah9's mod have been kept, and the tension system works just fine. I have mostly moved onto Skyrim, but I'm sure I'll find my way back here eventually and fix the improper names.

Anyway! I hope you enjoy, please let me know if you have any problems. I made this mod last year and just never posted it. I truly hope it brings joy to all those like me who love male mages and most of all, male healers. I know most of the males were already healers, but I always wanted Eric to be our main healer, the best part is, the characters have lines when tossing items, and those lines play for the healing spells too. So Eric will give light hearted taunts when healing allies.

How to install:
Make a paks file folder in your DRAGON QUEST XI S/Game/Content
Unzip the file into the folder

(Psssst! If you don't want to start a new game, just use the console commands to have a character leave and come back. It will update. Set the levels you had before and bam! Though seeing them learn the spells as they level is a joy you can't replace!)

Once again, thank you https://next.nexusmods.com/profile/Tellah9/about-me for the Hero Mage mod

Thank you https://next.nexusmods.com/profile/mike9k1/about-me for the Tension mod

Thank you https://next.nexusmods.com/profile/Demolinizer5/about-me for the difficulty edits. (Though I did edit his mod heavily, he provided the base.)

This mod is incompatible with all mods mentioned above, and most likely any mod that edits those areas. Pretty much any mod that edits character stats and spells on level up.
