Red Mage as Tank? What? WHAT? ya know, it doesnt soudn like it, but original Red Mage coudnt wear anything heavier than chainmails.
Ok, he could use Broadswords and such, but shields, rather than warrior, onl buckler. So Red Mage as tank is like DRG as healer.

Please keep some concepts within some realistic patterns. :P
