Something not often picked up on is that Conjurer's wear off-white, grey, and in rare cases dark brown or green attire - though I don't think I've seen any Gridanian Conjurer's wearing the latter two - whereas Padjal (and possibly by extension all White Mages) are the only ones who wear that striking white color.Â
Hearers wear blue or purple, with the two Padjal O-App-Pesi and E-Sumi-Yan being positively decked out in purple. I don't know why these two don't wear white, though I suspect it might be because they lead and teach the Conjurer's in Gridania.
I RP'd Rakka'li as a Hearer who often shirked his duties as he could only keep his Keeper wanderer/loner tendencies in check for so long. Though unfortunately I only had cause to have him wear his blue "Hearer" robes in very few scenes (and sometimes I just plain forgot to put them on). Later on he would wear dark browns and greens when wandering alone to blend in with the Twelveswood and to not be bothered by those looking for a Hearer.
So in summary,
Conjurer: muted earth tones, or off-white.
Hearer: Blue, with more purple the more higher ranking/more powerful you are.
White: Padjal - possibly all White Mages.
I remember Sounsyy cited some lore with quotes about what each of the colors meant. ...something to do with rank, if I'm remembering properly.
