Note: this is in no means a flame or compliment or anything to those players that have famous character names and do different things with them, I'm one of them, this is just a random thought type thing...
So I was watching Fellowship of the Rings last night and during the last battle, Legolas takes out the bow then grabs 2 knives. I'm watching that thinking to myself, Legolas is a RNG/NIN and dual wielding archer's knives.
So it got me thinking, what jobs would these famous characters, as they are written in the books/movies, have in FFXI?
R.A. Salvatore's Forgotten Realms:
Drizzt: Ninja (in the books he's a ranger, but in FFXI he'd be a ninja, possible a WAR/NIN. He dual wields, has the globes of darkness, the ninjutsu ability Kurayami which blinds the enemy)
Wulfgar: Warrior
Catti-Brie: Ranger
Regis: Thief
R.A. Salvatore's Corona novels:
Nightbird: RNG/WAR
Jilsephonie: White Mage
Tad William's Memory, Sorrow & Thorn:
Binabik: Beastmaster
Deornoth: Paladin
Pyrates: Black Mage
Tolkien's Lord of the Rings:
Legolas: RNG/NIN
Aragorn: RNG/WAR
Boromir: Paladin
Eowyn: Warrior
Eomer: Warrior
Gandalf: WHM/BLM
Sarumon: BLM/WHM
Dragonlance:
Tanis: Ranger
Sturm: Paladin
Caramon: Warrior
Raistlin: Black Mage
Jordan's Wheel of Time:
Rand: Black Mage
Any Aes Sedai: White Mage
Black Aes Sedai: Black Mage
Perrin: BST/WAR
What do you think? Any others?
