I'm going to be doing something very similar to what Rhos and Ship are saying. I want my character to be a somewhat ninja-esque type of skillset. Now I haven't done anything like create a clan of ninja or studied under a ninja master, nor will I be using the title of ninja.
Instead I've tried to stay within the established lore as much as possible, using it to create what I need, even if it won't be possible to have this job in-game when doing dungeons or endgame, etc. I will RP her carrying two daggers, dressing in dark colored leathers, and being a silent tracker within the Twelveswood to achieve the desired effect.
So you could easily, very easily in fact, do the same thing with Red Mage. equip a sword and wear light armor or a fancy looking cloth piece with a mage hat. RP that you know a wide set of magic skills from both sets of white and black magicks. Make sure that you incorporate all apects of Red mage, the swordplay, the white magic, and the black magic in a balanced fashion without being too good at any one area.
And just as I will never have Manari refer to herself as a "ninja" until that job and lore actually are put into the game, you should do the same with Red Mage. I hope that makes some sense. ^.^;
