Magic as a Main Theme in an Expansion?

[Len]

Thank you for the link. However it's natural that Yugiri would be part of the story, however that does not make the Ninja job itself a primary focus.

That's not even the point. She is a character that has been established as a Ninja and she has been present in the story in a major way.

The visibility of magic-based characters in the story pales in comparison.

Sorry, but that's not true at all.

Y'shtola
Minfillia
Alphie
Papalymo
Urianger
Krile

There are a ridiculous number of highly visible magic-based characters in the story.

Not to mention Gandelf (Louisoix) who is probably one of the most well known characters in the game and lore. Definitely far more famous than the WoL is right now.

I should have been more specific; how many of those characters can you say fall into any of the magic jobs we have available to us? (Black Mage, White Mage, Summoner, Scholar, Astrologian)

None of them. It would benefit class identity if we had characters in the story that represented these jobs in the same vein as a Yugiri, Estinien, Thancred, and now the new characters being added in Stormblood.

Y'shtola is a WHM
Alphie is an Arcanist/SMN
Papalymo was a BLM and a WHM
Urianger is an Arcanist/SMN

Krile is the only one in my list besides Minfillia that isn't explicitly determined, though her clothing is that of a WHM from FF5.
