In regards to RPing professions rather than classes: this is definitely an option! But I've always super enjoyed healing type characters. But I think I could get away with doing even a surgeon or almost an alchemist type without relying on magic? That would also be very interesting and fun to RP! It is very good to know that WHM and other classes just don't work well in the setting from an RP perspective depending on what type of RPer you are.
I guess the base classes you can choose at character creation are the standardised and more lore-friendly options, whereby a good portion of the higher level jobs are, as a general rule, unique to the 'hero' of the story and 'out of bounds' so to speak? Such as, for example, the WHM lore that has been explained to be on the thread.
I thank you all for the time you guys have invested in providing really good information. Learning a new game that is so expansive is a bit daunting but it's always nice to have folks in communities that are newbie-friendly.
