I was unaware that a primal-like spirit would put a constant strain on the aetherial flow of the immediate area around it. Â That does put a bit of a chink in my backstory.
I do quite enjoy the idea of the ebb and flow of the powers that Zhuto would have had the abiliy to call upon; that is to say with the Dark Knight being believed to be stronger with the new moon and the White Mage being stronger with the full moon.
I know that most people wouldn't play their "Job" proper, and I have no intention of doing it either. Â My main class is Dragoon, but Zhuto's certainly no proper dragoon. Â She's a wild huntress who prizes the spear as her primary weapon do to its reach, strength, and its ability to be used as an effective method of catching fish just as well as it can kill a boar. Â Also do to the length of the weapon, the non-pointy end can be used for non-combat purposes, such as checking the depth of water before jumping on in. Â For someone living in the wilds, there is no more versatile or valuable weapon from those that we have to choose from. Â On top of that, the jumps can easily be used IC even if she is not a dragoon because of how powerful miqo'te's legs are supposed to be. Â Her jumps can easily be aggressive pounces.
As for Bards... Â Well, music is universal. Â Even the most uncivilized and truly 'wild' human tribes have an affinity for their own brand of music, be it for entertainment, for war, for peace, or for celebration. Â I'd say that can easily translate to any sentient being in any fantasy universe.
As I said in my original post, I love to marry mechanics and role play when it is possible. Â In the case of the dragoon and that bard, that is very easy and translates cleanly and plainly.
So if we cast aside the very notion of a primal, is there any way to incorporate a Dark Kight and White Mage into a Shroud-Dwelling Keeper of the Moon?
Again, bear in mind that I am NOT asking about how to make her an Ishgardian Dark Knight or a Trained White Mage - only looking for a way to tap into similar powers with which to allow me to justify having the classes available for when I need to tank or heal IC.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
