Yrel

Light of Hope

An Exarch in a dangerous land, Yrel's dedication to protecting the Draenei people is legendary. Both her devotion to the Light and her ferocity as a warrior have grown prodigiously. No longer is she the frightened slave Grommash's Orcs expected. Blessed with the Gift of the Naaru by the prophet Velen himself and entrusted with his light, Yrel is the brightest beacon of hope for her people on Draenor.

Just that she's a pretty flaky healer, but fairly solid damage dealer. But given she doesn't have the stuns and vulnerability of a Tyrande, maybe support is better indeed.
Edit: Since this, Yrel has been reworked and is now 'Multiclass' (Warrior/Support)
