Azama is a monk that joins in [[Fierce Winds|chapter 8]] of ''Birthright'' and [[White Flames|chapter 16]] of ''Revelation''. Azama has rather unusual bases and growths for a healer, making him more fit for a physical class rather than a magic based one. Because of his low magic, it might seem better to use a more magic-based healer such as [[Sakura]] instead of Azama, however this would ignore the great uses Azama has otherwise. Azama starts out with a decent enough base magic and a D rank in staves, allowing him to use the [[Sun Festal]] at base and quickly gain EXP to reach level 10 by as early as [[To the Sea|chapter 11]]. Azama benefits greatly from early promoting to [[Great Master]], as the promotion gives him excellent bonuses to stats (most notably the +8 strength) and access to lances at the low cost of lowering his magic, skill and resistance. While it might seem strange to use a healer as a physical combat unit at first, Azama's stats will on average be on par with [[Oboro]] if she was promoted to [[Spear Master]] around the same time. After promotion, Azama can be used as a serviceable combat unit, with the help of a speed tonic and a pair up, while also providing staff utility and even as a decent user of the [[Dual Naginata]]. He also makes for a decent pair up partner for [[Hinoka]] and [[Reina]]. It might seem better to promote Azama to an [[Onmyoji]] to fix his low magic, but while his magic growth is increased in said class, it is not raised by a huge margin, resulting in him not being able to inflict much damage as compared to other magic users. Azama is in a much less fortunate position in ''Revelation'' where his bases are rather low for his join time and even an early promotion barely helps. He can still serve as a staff bot, but it is likely that there will be better options by that point.
