*Notes*

I went with Astrologian versus Astrologer because that's the term they called it in 2.4's story. :B
While designing this class, I wanted to stay away from naming stars/planets because SE has yet to give up any information on the skies of Hydalen other then the moons and some sort of "Dragon Star"
Almost all of the skills come from Astronomy terms, a few geometry terms, and Celestial Stasis is from Tactics. :B
I really wanted to try and stay away from pets and/or buffing for this one because a good chunk of my ideas are either one or both of those...

I also made this classless because of Dark Knight and I figured maybe the Ishgarian jobs won't have classes.
