    Other than the Warrior of Light, White mages are limited to the Padjals, or if you were somehow able to find some soul stones from Amdapor that hasn't been hidden by the elementals.

    In the end of Endwalker's ranged physical role questline 
    Gosetsu takes up shugendo, which could be similar to conjury; however, real-life practitioners of shugendo are called yamabushi, or mountain hermits.
    So this might not work well if your character is part of Sui-no-Sato's close-knit community.

    In addition to the parts of life that has been described about Sui-no-Sato itself, your character might also pick up skills, originating from surrounding cultures - the Ruby Sea, Hingashi, or Doma, or one from the real-world practices that inspired them - either through the Kojin, or preserved in Sui-no-Sato after they have closed off from the outside world. One example would be onmyodo.

    This is true, however pretty much any time a healer turns up in a part of the world that doesn't have its own healer job, they basically just produce a local-brand conjurer. So you can't be an actual white mage unless you're specifically a Padjali or the WoL, but there's plenty of precedent to just go 'yeah I'm a healer from this part of the world', play a white mage, and have everyone just accept it.

    Roleplayers, in my experience, are not the type to pull out an 'um actually according to The Lore' on this sort of thing. (Or most things, actually.)

    I'd never heard of this Shudengo thing, that's really interesting, I will be looking into it more. I guess it makes sense that people don't get nitpickey with lore bits, but I still prefer to try to let things be accurate and explainable, haha
    Onmyodo is one I'll save for another time, but that's also a fascinating concept!
