Requirements: Experience as an Animist. Mime - the oddball class. The mime does whatever its target does, be it ally or enemy. I mean literally, not generally. If they target the enemy, and the enemy attacks its own ally, a mime will move exactly how the target did, whether there's anything to attack at the designated spot or not. However, they aren't stupid. They will stop just short of hitting themselves or an ally, then continue mimicing the target. Oh, yeah, one more thing. THEY ARE VERY ANNOYING. Ability: Mimic. Use no equipment. Requirements: Experience in all base classes.

Cool! ^-^ I'd probably be a Red Mage, if I had to stick with a single role. No, scratch that. Gambits are much more fund to do.

Oh, I'm in the process of making the RP right now. It's on Gaia, though, and takes up an entire guild. There's also a class system, element system, and much much more stuff. If you don't want me to post ALL of it, I could give you a link to the info...
