—In-game description

Abe-no-Seimei is a supporting character in the Yasuko's Tale campaign in Age of Mythology: Retold - Heavenly Spear. He is a stronger version of the Onmyōji, but with a unique model.

Special abilities

• Divine Immunity (Passive): Cannot be targeted by god powers which target a single specific unit.
• Sacred Hands (Passive): Can pick up and deposit Relics in Temples.
• Heal (Active, automatic): Heals an injured allied unit at 10 hit points per second. Due to an oversight, he lacks an ability button in his command panel, although he can still be ordered to heal a specific unit by right-clicking on it.
