Professor Birch has been having a great week! His kid's birthday was earlier this week, and the annual celebratory cookout was a blast! Plus, therapy's been really paying off, and he made a great discovery at work, and- and-

Well, Mustard getting lost was kind of a bummer. He practically considers her his own kid! But he's 99% sure they can go in, grab her, and get out before the day is done! Honest! (Don't ask about the missing 1%.)

Birch's Strength stat is the worst out of all your party members. However, he doesn't need it to be valuable: First of all, Birch has a large Health pool that allows him to easily absorb damage. Second of all, Birch is the only character that knows Healing actions, and plays a vital role in keeping your party alive.

Birch plays best as your party's cheerleader. Use him to top off your party's health and provide small Defense buffs. Plus, his Healing power directly scales off of his max Health, so be sure to stack on HP-boosting accessories to increase his power!
