If you can't respect lore - why are you playing a Final Fantasy game?
Because it's an MMO game? Not even FFXI gated new Jobs behind plot. If you wanted to be a DNC before finishing the first main scenario (Shadowlord), then you could. All you needed to do was be level 30, start the quest, activate a cavernous maw and you were set (Wings of the Goddess is of course a requirement as well).
