These spells include Invulnerability, Fire Shield and Soul Vortex, and he's sacred and can bless himself too. Surely you all have already realized this. Those two 50% resistances help, too. The poison resistance lets him cast Invulnerability and be just 50% suspectable to Poison, and they and few cheaper Yomi mages have Air randoms so they can get Rings of Tamed Lightning as well to use Ironskin. No access to cold resistance, though.
Their body protection is 23, but natural armor just 10 (8 +2 from Earth), so their head armor is only 10... Crossbowmen and even occassional bowmen can get lucky, and feeble-mindedness is as evil as ever, and Yomi gets just 1 Earth gem/turn. You need luck to make enough helmets for them! That, or find some Earth sites, or research Construction for other types of helmets. Not that those are necessarily worse options, mind you.
BTW, I had nice luck in my test game. +20 hp and +5 str thanks to Heroic Obesity! Not bad for turn 2, eh? The +3 Enc hurts, but not this early. He needs lighter armor before he can cast boost spells, though. Or perhaps Earthpower.
