Any ideas on a good cleric build?

A mate of mine is going to join our Pathfinder game but will only be able to make it to the odd game. As per usual no one wants to run a Cleric, so I've decided to build an NPC that he can use at the games he turns up to.

Does anyone have some suggestions on a build that may suit? I've read a few of the forums and some suggest not to go down the healing path too heavily as it's a bit of a waste.

Criteria are:
20 point build;
Good alignment;
All races considered.
Herolab compatible.

Any ideas?

Cheers

I have found the "reach cleric" to be loads of fun. I would suggest checking it out.


What role?
Band-Aid?
2nd Line Fighter?
Buffer?
Archer?
The healing specialist is more of s strict NPC cohort type...

And if no one wants a cleric, they can all die and/or be permanently blinded, deafened or cursed.

You don't strictly need a cleric. Half the classes can use a wand of cure light wounds, or some other form of healing. I've played in plenty of groups where a bard, druid, paladin, or even a ranger with a CLW wand were the only healers. As for curing conditions, you can always UMD scrolls for that.

If you're insisting on a cleric, and want him to be a heal/buff specialist, you can look at my leprechaun wannabe. I think I changed the stats since starting that thread, so he started with 16 cha and 14 dex. Haven't looked at the rest in a while to see how much other stuff I changed from that original idea. But he's definitely all about buffing and healing.

If you are going to be the full time Healer, by all means, take the Healing Domain. Seems obvious, but the boost in healing is considerable.

+1 = 3. Great fun.


Can I vote for reach cleric twice?

Seriously though, this may give you some inspiration.


I know it isn't a cleric, but an Elven or Aasimar Oracle of Life would give you ridiculously powerful channeling if you take the +1/2 revelation level favored class option.

Role will be a second line fighter that heals.
