Much like a soldier, a mercenary is less trained, yet better able to adapt to situations. They usually work in groups, doing jobs which are dubious in nature.

|
Much like priests, but with a different mindset, druids are great hand-to-hand combatants, and often have animal partners.

|
|
Seer
|
With very little fighting skills, Seer's are not great warriors, but valuable nonetheless.

White Mage
|
Often using a cane as their only weapon, a white mage is not very good offensively.

Training in temples around the world, White mages are pure of mind, and of spirit.

A black mage is among the greatest of allies in battle, but can do very little to help the group defensively.
|
|
|
Sorcerer
|
With a mixture of white and Dark magics, the sorcerer is indeed a worthy foe. Although not as strong as a white mages white magic, or a black mages black magic, Sorcerers are great because of their versatility.

Necromancer
|
Masters of the Dead, Necromancers are much like summoners, but raise dead and undead allies to do their bidding. Necromancers usually have some tipe of black arts to serve them as well.
