    I am betting on a Garlean class. The Garlean Empire was founded by a guy named after a Greek Death God (Hades). It's army fields Reaper-class magitek armor as its main battle mech (something Yoshida decided to remind us of in Paglth'an) in addition to having infantry units with names like Wolf Skulls. Their signature attack is Terminus Est which is Latin for "It is the End" (Terminus Est is also the name of the Death Guard flagship in Warhammer 40K but I digress). We also just had the Werlyt quests inform us that Garleans have magitek soul crystals imbedded in the armor of their elite troops in addition to having Gaius firing off a new attack called Crocea Mors, which is Latin for "Yellow Death" (and also the name of Gaius Julius Caesar's sword).

    And speaking of the Gunbreaker quests, the level 70 class quest had you facing off against a Garlean soldier, Vitus quo Messalla, firing of several new attacks with names like the Culling Blade and To the Slaughter. Culling is a synonym for Reaping and his name Vitus is Latin for Life or Lively so you quite literally had a Garlean soldier named Life using an attack called the Reaping Blade.
