Krile and Pictomancer

[Avoidy]

Krile tutored Alphinaud, right? Feels like she should've been the Sage in EW. Meanwhile, it's established that Alphinaud is a great artist. So he could've been a pictomancer.
Hell, just make Alphinaud the job representative 2 expansions in a row. I don't think anyone would've minded. The only thing that fits about this for krile imo is the job's color scheme, which seems full of bright primary colors just like Krile's outfit.

Feels less forced than this being an issue.

I think its completely fine, she wants to contribute in her own unique way, seems like she will get a chance to do just that.

Don't get the why this should be a big deal, it's not like she had to stop being a serious character now that she is a Pictomancer.

so much this. the idea that artists have to be bubbly and vapid or something? what... does that even mean...

We already have healer NPCs in our little group of companions, tatru already proven she's a failure at combat but better at running a business or weaving threads. If any of the scions were to be pictomancer, it would have to be Alphinaud, but he's super annoying and get away too much screen time as it is. I'm all for bringing krile onboard in any way , as she hasn't been doing a whole lot of combat stuff. I generally don't like the idea of pictomancer , considering how low quality and childish the aesthetic looks, like it's straight out of genshin or something. At the end of the day I'm fine with whatever, just let it be and see what happens before we go complaining about stuff when we haven't even seen what happens in DT yer

During the cut scenes where Leviathan is summoned and the Scions are fighting off waves of sahagin and Serpent Reavers, Thancred makes a comment about how he has to stop holding back while he picks up a second knife and switches from gladiator to rogue/ninja fighting stances. And the totally-not-Rogues' Guild members (looking back, it's pretty clear that they're stand-ins for Jacke and V'kebbe, but are very noticeably not them, for whatever reason) that you later introduce to Yugiri comment on knowing him from back in the day. So the clear intent is that Thancred was always supposed to be a rogue, it just didn't exist as a separate job yet.

something about her personality.. its just not really the "artsy" kinda type, it lacks the lighhearted bubblyness that youde think would be needed to take up pictomancy.

This is potentially one of the strangest arguments I've seen on this forum.

So are you going to counter it....or?

I don't know if there's really any need... "Artists" don't have pre-written personalities, that's all.

I’m an artist. I’m about as far from “light-hearted bubbliness” as you can get! lol Sometimes my artwork can venture into the whimsical realm, but you wouldn’t know it from looking at me. And I’d say for a lot of artists, even if you know them personally, you might be surprised by what some of their art looks like. You don’t need a certain personality to be an artist. Krile will be perfect for the role imo.
