Couldn't have said it better myself, Eva.
And Curtis, my plan was that Uther would learn to use a sword and shield for paladin. The handling of the weapon itself would be awkward at first, since he's used to polearms, but he's already an experienced close quarters fighter so the change wouldn't be out of control for him.Â
If I were a black mage and decided to be a warrior one day and didn't even put in effort to explain the change in combat style, weapon wielding, or even how he handles the weight of the armor, I could see that turning some heads. Really though, any change can be made as long as the person doing it at least gives it a reasonable explanation IMO.
Some people just like sticking to one class. I don't get it either, despite dragoon being far-and-away my main focus for my character.
EDIT: Don't know why I'm explaining all of Uther's plans to you, Curtis. We're in the same linkshell. You'll see it all eventually.
