Right! I apologize, I misread.
I agree, I actually thought all job stories would have been akin to the Paladin questline, where adventurers can become Free Paladins. I had no idea you become the Azure Dragoon of Ishgard...certainly, perhaps the Holy See is training a "foreign legion" of its lancers for help against the dragon threat.Â
My guess is that they had different writers for each questline, and that having all the job lines as "Long-established title is being trained openly to adventurers" would be too repetitive (this is from Squeenix's angle that is)
EDIT: Gosh, i still don't know how to quote in this forum. This post was a direct reply to Naunet's #13 post.
EDIT2: Derp, this went onto a second page. I second Sounsyy once again. Personally, I consider myself quite proudly an Ul'dahn RPer (waa, Ottoman/Arabic city as the largest city in-game right now, and not some generic European city? yes please!). Paladins are, historically, Ul'dahn...while my character will always antagonize free paladins (not Sultansworn of course), if anything, this is more to explore the lore and history of Ul'dah, and not criticize the player's RP choices. "Captain Jenlyns says anyone of pure spirit can be a paladin! Meanings change over time!" vs "Captain Jenlyns' effete words means nothing to six centuries worth of history! The only true paladins are Sultansworn!" etc
