-Despite the disapproval of defensive glyphs, Jehora is actually a fairly solid contender for defensive-oriented classes. The real gem of his abilities is Retribution, which lets each blow you take work in your favor. For characters who plan on taking lots of hits head-on, like [[Alpha:Monk|Monks]], [[Alpha:Paladin|Paladins]] or [[Alpha:Berserker|Berserker]], this can carry its weight significantly. Madness helps to shore up the lower damage of monks or amp up the existing damage of berserkers, and Bolstering will let you take more hits (and thus award more piety) in exchange for healing fewer hits later. Due to Bolstering's low piety cost, people hoping to obtain lots of piety under Jehora should consider it first.

 Jehora's two defining abilities, however, are Chaos and Polymorph. The former is the ultimate gamble, and if your piety is significantly high (for example, above 50) it may save an otherwise unwinnable game. Do not take Chaos, however, if you're unprepared for the consequences of failure. As for Polymorph, this ability can change an impossible boss ([[Alpha:Goo blob#Boss info|tower of goo]] versus a monk, for example) into an easy one. This ability alone makes Jehora a decent option for nearly every side dungeon, where the chief difficulty comes from the monster selection. However, Jehora's cost for joining is very expensive for glass cannon roles that avoid death through trickery, such as [[Alpha:Rogue|Rogue]] and [[Alpha:Warlord|Warlord]].
