    Samurai are lawful to a fault, not sure how you rate that on a DnD scale. On top of that the player's Samurai is a Ronin outside Hingashi laws, so go figure that one out.

    Well my first instinct was samurai being on par with paladin with how obviously they are lawful. The very way how samurai (also outside of FF) are described could perhaps be considered the very definition of lawful. You're supposed to be loyal, adhering to specific customs, have gone through rigorous training, value honor above all else, total obedience to authority, ..

    Maybe there are more ronins in FF than regular samurai though (your player) so that's where you'd start doubting their lawfulness. Even then though I'd still consider them lawful. While they may no longer be loyal or adhering to authority, they still adhere to specific customs (the samurai way?) and depend on using skills learnt from the (old) tradition of being a samurai. Either way, to me they seem one of the more obvious lawful jobs.

    This corresponds with my motive to put warrior in neutral, but then in the opposite way. At first you'd think warrior is pretty obviously chaotic being beast like and all, but on second note, having gone through the job quests, there does seem to be a specific old tradition to being warrior since you go looking for the lost art of being a warrior, which would make them seem more lawful to their tradition and methods, so I put them as neutral leaning towards chaotic.
