Mhenlo is a calm and wise monk who is one of the Heroes of Ascalon. After the Searing, he is encountered in several quests as the Prophecies storyline progresses.

In Factions, it was revealed that Mhenlo was a former student of Master Togo of Shing Jea Monastery in Cantha. Also in the Factions Campaign, Jamei refers to Cynn as 'Mhenlo's little girlfriend', confirming that these two are in a relationship.

Evaluation
As far as healing goes, Mhenlo is undeniably more effective than Alesia at healing, especially later on in the game, such as on the Ring of Fire Islands. If you or your human players are killed, he can often keep some henchmen alive long enough to finish off the current group of enemies. He does, however, sometimes run up to the warriors to use Healing Touch which immediately focuses enemy attention on him.

Pros Cons
 * Solid healer who, coupled with Lina, can sustain a party very well.
 * Often faster and more effective at healing than Alesia.
 * Very fragile.
 * Has the same resurrection issues as Lina. He will at times opt to resurrect when party members are taking heavy damage, resulting in one death becoming several deaths. Most annoying is that, at times, both he and Lina will attempt to resurrect the fallen member, leaving the party completely without monk support for the duration. This has been somewhat alleviated by the other henchmen using their Resurrection Signets, but unfortunately, if Mhenlo (and Lina) start using Restore Life they will not stop until the skill activation time is completed regardless of the fact that the dead ally has been resurrected already.

Tyria

 * "My mother was a priestess of Dwayna, my father a priest of Balthazar. I walk a fine line between the teachings of both. I grew up in the shadows of Serenity Temple, and as anyone who had a similar childhood can attest to, there are advantages and disadvantages to having your spiritual well-being so closely monitored."

Cantha
When spoken to in the Kaineng City areas:
 * "Keep your eyes open and your weapons at the ready, (character name). Thugs and pickpockets have plenty of places to hide here, and they will be more than happy to take advantage of you."

When spoken to in the Divine Path:
 * "Though we lost Master Togo, we can take solace in the fact that his sacrifice was not in vain. Thank you for your valiant service. If you should ever have need of me, send word my way and I will come."

Idle quotes in the Shiverpeak Mountains:
 * "The mountain folk have a belief in what they call the Great Dwarf. Imagine that. A single god. How foolish."

Idle quotes in the Ring of Fire Islands:
 * "There are some things in this life that I just do not understand. This place is one of them."
 * "This place has been too long under the gaze of Grenth."
 * "What sort of creature would WANT to live here?"

Battle quotes:
 * "By the might of Balthazar!"
 * "Dwayna take your soul."
 * "Into the rift with you, beast!"
 * "May your passing from this realm be swift."
 * "Say your prayers!"
