As an introvert myself, I have no trouble responding to social situations and working with others, but I am naturally more reserved and my thoughts more internal than an extrovert.
That was what I meant, not shyness.
And I wouldn't say she is opposed to visiting the city states to learn her craft, it's just that she tries to steer clear of non-guildmates and non-Scions socially, as she has come to see their straight-talking as a sign of their social coarseness, plus they don't immediately appreciate her Adventuring life or the good she does for them.
But anyway, some other questions about each:
1. From what I understand, Conjury comes from the elementals agreeing to do the caster's bidding. So if you don't follow the Padjal traditions or you act in a way that goes against their beliefs, will Conjury fail you? And if so, then how come many NPCs and voidsent can cast Stone and Cure?
2. The advantage of Thaumaturgy seems to be that you don't need to believe in a specific cause, as long as you've learned the Umbral/Astral shifting. But is Black Magic "corrupting" in the same way as say, Fel magic in WoW?
3. Several other people seem to think that the best choice for Miranda would be a Summoner or Scholar, given that the Arcanists are more serious and trustworthy than most other Limsa Lominsans due to the nature of their work, and the Jobs themselves make sense for serving the Scions as they no longer are tied to specific city states. However, wouldn't a Scholar effectively be required to be similar to Admiral Merlwyb, seeing as how their arcane spells were (evidently) designed around protection and directing Marauder units in battle?
