    Edit: Course, as I'm typing this up all of these get listed on their own anyway, heh.

    Could be Puppetmaster cause of web/strings.

    Could be Dancer, cause he's pretty agile and generally graceful in movement. Could also be a type of acrobat styled job based on that too.

    Some have theorized Blue Mage cause of getting abilities from a creature.

    A few threw out the idea of Samurai, connecting Sam Raimi's name somehow.

    Beyond that, I'm lost to any other possibilities.

    I think there are much better T-shirt to announce the dancer....
    And the whole Sam Raimi thing is wayyyyy too far fetched considering how clear and direct every other t-shirt have been.
    007 - machinsit (gun/gadget)
    batman - darknight (on top of that, batman is often refered as the dark night... so...)
    scarlet witch - red mage, scarlet being a kind of red and witch being.. you know...


    Personally, I'm going for Blue Mage or some kind of Puppetmaster, but I have a problem with both.
    I have a problem with Blue Mage because they've announced the red mage, it would make this xpac a 3 caster xpac. (I'm assuming the Blue Mage would be a tank in this case)
    Regarding the puppetmaster, this job is very famous in the FireEmblem serie, but non existent in FF. If we were in 5.0 or 6.0, I wouldn't say, but there are soooo many other iconic job could be added, Dancer, Beastmaster, TimeMage, Geomancer, just to name a few... that addidng a Puppetmaster would feel very out of place.

    And just for the sake of making all people wrong with this god damn "Sam Raimi" I hope the Samurai won't be added this xpac.

    Puppetmaster isn't iconic in the series, hell it almost wasn't a thing it was introduced last minute to replace necromancer because it didn't "fit" final fantasy. Don't get me wrong I like puppetmaster and it was my main in FFXI, but I don't see it being added unless yoshi-p really really likes the job and sees a niche for it ingame. Plus puppetmaster has an identity crisis it cannot be a hybrid so if it's added it'll be like AST "FFXIV original job". I think the best bet for PUP being added is to merge FFXI PUP with mime from older FFs.

    Saying that though, things like Geomancer and Beastmaster just for examples as they were mentioned, are hardly iconic to the series either, having only being used in a few games, and only 1-2 main series games. If we want to claim them as iconic, then technically Puppetmaster has been in games beforehand too. FFIV had a Puppetmaster villain, and Cait Sith could be considered the Puppet of it's Master Reeve in VII, and Lulu in X was a Puppetmaster/Black Mage hybrid.

    True they have puppetmaster aspects but it wasn't a job until 2007, and even then it has never been reintroduced so puppetmaster is in the lowest tier of wanted jobs next to gunblade users which as of yet has no job in the series. In my opinion PUP was a very fun and original job in the series but any chance of it being reintroduced has been destroyed by FFXI thanks to their poorly executed release. If puppetmaster was on par with BLU and COR I bet we would have seen them much more in the series. But SE released them horribly broken which damaged their reputation. (I believe Astrologian will suffer the same fate in the series because of it being released broken at launch.)
