It should be noted that the reason you will never see them playable - at least not the silver-haired "pureblood" Garleans like Cid, Livia, and the emperor - is that they are congenitally incapable of using magic. Cid and Livia never cast a spell, and it is the reason that the empire relies so much on technology. That would shut out every Disciple of Magic class, not to mention aether-using abilities of non-mage classes.

Every magic-using Garlean is some dark-haired conscript of a conquered nation, using a Midlander hyur who probably wanted nothing more than to serve their term of forced service in peace until the Warrior of Light breaks into their castrum to kill them for crafting mats...
