Frequently, White Mages will be extremely effective against undead, either through holy magic, magic specifically designed to hurt undead, or ReviveKillsZombie.
Many games with a CharacterClassSystem or JobSystem, especially {{Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game}}s, will have a White Mage class that fulfils the [[AnAdventurerIsYou Healer]] role.
A White Mage is almost always TheMedic, although they have the addition of buffs. Female White Mages in {{Eastern RPG}}s are frequently the StaffChick, although they must also fit the personality requirements for that trope.
