Summoner and BLM differences

[AspectOfWinter]

I can't really speak for how you choose to roleplay Miranda

Okay well, first off, let me apologize for not being able to leave well enough alone. I know I can be pretty stubborn sometimes and I apologize if I'm being annoying.

Eikidoh has a VERY good point about the Jobs, that I must admit I kind of overlooked in my Scholar vs Bard thread. The advantage of the two Arcanist Jobs is that you are virtually the only one of their kind in the present day world, besides Tristan of course. So for purposes of the story, it doesn't really matter what traits the ancient Nymian Scholars or the Ancient Allagan Summoners had.

By that definition, if I say Miranda couldn't be a Scholar just because they were militant in the past, then being a BLM or a WHM would have to be disqualified as well, seeing as how it's heavily implied that most past WHMs and BLMs were very much fanatical warmongers, which is how the aether ran out and the arts became forbidden.

I also only recently did the WHM quests up to level 45 on Miranda, so I know for a fact that WHMs today aren't always peaceful and friendly.

But yeah, one other thing I apologize for not making clearer: Miranda's bitterness stems mostly from her strong belief that "tough love" and arrogance do more harm than good, and seeing as how the city states have a knack for displaying both attitudes, she has ended up becoming disillusioned and independent minded. Pretty much, what she's against is fighting out of hubris, not fighting in general.
