Honestly, at this point, I think I'm just going to use Fantasia on this character, and go back to being a Miqo'te Monk.

However, I would absolutely appreciate advice on what my new character should be. He'll literally have the exact same appearance as my current character here; deeply-tanned skin, auburn hair, and golden eyes. What I can't decide is whether would "fit" the Story better for him to:

A) Start out as a Gladiator, join the Immortal Flames, and become a Paladin, before eventually fleeing to Ishgard and becoming a Dark Knight, or

B) Start out as a Marauder, join the Maelstrom, and stay less personally-involved with the goings-on of Ul'dah.

Also, given that the Xaela's names and lore are supposely based on the Mongolians, I wonder if that should factor in?
