Garlean Playable Race (?)

[Lanadra]

Part of the lore is they are not able to use magic, so they would have to be locked out of any job that can use magic or manipulate aether at all. Which is why I could never happen.

It is also forbidden for any non-Padjali to become a White Mage, the WoL, a non-Padjali, becomes an exception. Summoning as a more advanced art (as in, not the basic Carbuncles of Arcanists) is long dead.. yet somehow the WoL is able to revive it. The WoL also becomes chosen by a Fairy is able to revive the arts of the Scholar. In all three of these examples, and there's probably more, the WoL is an exceptionally unusual exception to what would normally be a rule (arts is forbidden or dead). It would be no different with a Garlean WoL, they would be the exception to the rule 'Garleans cannot normally use magic'. Things are only impossible if you convince yourself of such and thus never even try.
