    The Dancer leads an exuberant War Parade, granting all members of the alliance regain while consuming TP. The amount of regain received and TP consumed would increase as the parade marches on.
    *Starts out at 1 tp regain for 2 tp consumed. Increases every 36 seconds until the regain:consumtion ratio becomes 5:10 (at three minutes.)
    **Radius is 30 yalms.
    ***The Dancer would not receive the effect of Parade.
    ****Would effect pets aswell.

    Obviously melee would receive a huge boost from this, but since black mages now get TP from spells I think this would help them too. I have a feeling SE might add something worth while for BLM who use TP. Hvellgeregrg users using Myrkr would also appreciate it, I imagine. This would particularly shine in Einherjar type battles. SMN and Pet type jobs would also recieve a large boost from this. The best part is the DNC doesn't really take the "spot" of any key jobs because it doesn't have to be in the DD or mage party to give the effect, of course it would completely stack with all brd and cor buffs.

    edit: the historical name is a kind of sinister, but I think it fits in with the German words often used with DNC. German users might not appreciate it though.
    The chances of them extending the aura-type TP draining ability to alliance members and pets is about the same as the probability that I'll spontaneously combust exactly 3.5 seconds after writing this post.

    Also regarding the name...while holding the likelihood of drawing ire from particularly the European crowd, German words were used with DNC in our AF quests and that's it. Since then we've only really seen 2 foreign names and they've either been French (Casaque) or Italian (Presto).
