I've often heard the complaint that no one wants to play the party healer, since they're not the ones getting most of the action and glory. I normally have no problem playing a support role (for some reason I've always been drawn to such characters anyway), but I still find myself reluctant to play the healer in most systems for an entirely differant reason: most systems tie healing power to some sort of mysticism. In D&D, both of the two classes that make effective healers (cleric and druid) seem bound to either religion (either god-worship or nature-worship) or to D&D's alignment system (which is extremely flawed).
Is there any effective healer class which doesn't come saddled with RP constraints? Sort of the divine caster equivalent of, say, a fighter? Note that I'm looking for classes that can heal about as well as the cleric or druid from level 1, and are available online without buying another book.
