Vampires in Eorzea

As a race they would be fine, but if they are the same as blue mage, I would prefer a blue mage because they are pure awesomeness and it would be a disserve to have them replaced by a fairly unknown job like the vampire.

A good point. Vampires worked in Tactics S as the game had like 50+jobs.

However nothing stops the vampire race to roll as blue mage. I think the most natural fits would be blue mage, white mage and dark knight.

Actually now that I think about it perhaps "Vampires" could be Blue Mages in a lore perspective similar to how in Final Fantasy XI Blue Mages sacrifice there humanity to become beasts. Or similar to how all Death Knights In World Of Warcraft are Undead. I mean it would make sense since vampires are transformed humanoids and the only distinct feature they really possess are fangs, and pale skin.

Now I know that jobs don't change the physical appearance of the player, but perhaps when you equip the blue mage job your appearance could change into a vampire humanoid. (Example: Undead Lalafell with vampire features)

This in my opinion could bring to the game some interesting and dark lore, and take the blue mage into a level that they have never gone to before. Heck it could even potentially beat the epic lore of the blue mage in FF11.

It sure could. Only thing left is to explain why vampires chose to name it 'blue' magic
