Job Request - Dark Transformation Theme'd Job [Vincent, Dante, Yuri, Bayonetta, etc]

Hmm... I'd consider it if we could do something like choose the aspect of the transformation - choosing between light and dark. Maybe if one could turn the "cape" inside out to do that maybe? Sort of like wearing a fur cape lined on one side with e.g. Amdapor Achamoth scales/Kuribu feathers for mage and ranged, and the other side with fur from e.g. a Coeurl and Behemoth for melee damage and defence increase.

Going by the categories above, I'd imagine it would go like:

- Bruiser could be Behemoth
- Damage dealing melee could be Couerl
- Damage dealing ranged could be Hippogryph, Waukkeon, or Zu
- Magic damage could be Achamoth/Kuribu, or later something else, like Apa, and Steppe Anala

The transformations could also come from other beasts of course.

Slavic and Norse mythology spoke about people (werewolves) transforming at will by wearing wolf skins, so if FFXIV were to implement something like a transforming class I'd take a look at those influences as well. Also, Norse berserkers were supposedly fighting in trance-like states, while wearing either wolf, bear, or boar skins. To go berserk for a berserker was considered akin to a transformation for the berserkers as well. So that could be used as inspiration along with the Trance used by Terra from FFVI as an ultimate finisher or LB3.

Edit: A full beast transformation probably couldn't be implemented, but if something like the aura effects from Dragoon and Summoner were used to indicate the transformation, it could probably work.
