No, you can indeed continue RPing your job. Some people interpret lore one way, lots of others, including myself, interpret it completely different. So if you want to RP a Black Mage, you are completely free to do so. Hell on Balmung, I've met and RPed with upwards to 15 different black mages. Even my own FC has summoners, black mages, scholars, and of course, white mages.
In the end, your character, your choice.

Wrong. I actually was one of the most knowledgable people of warcraft lore, until Blizzard butchered it starting in Burning Crusade. Since that expansion, things had gotten even worse for that games lore. This games lore is consistent, and doesn't contradict itself, even though there are a few who disagree.
But one thing in Warcraft lore that used to be canon, was that the eredar corrupted sargeras, but then their own lore guy who wrote the original version, didn't remember his own lore and had sargeras correct the eredar instead. When their own lore guy cannot even keep the worlds history together and continues even to this day, to butcher the lore which just about every warcraft lore geek now agrees, is beyond saving now, then it is perfectly justifiable to say this games lore is 100% more stable.
