Changing Your Primary Job

When you have at least eight hours to rest, you can
change your primary job to any other job you have
access to. When you change you Primary Job:
1) Calculate your new Max HP and Max MP for
the new Job.
2) Mark your new Active Ability and other
abilities your new job gives you access to. Be
sure to mark which abilities you no longer
have access to.
3) If your new job has different weapon and
armor licenses than your previous job, you will
have to remove your current equipment and
change it to something job appropriate.

Base Jobs
Everyone starts with access to five basic Jobs: Fighter,
Thief, Whiter Mage, Black Mage, and Archer. You
can purchase abilities from these jobs and switch any
of them to your Primary Job freely.

Starting Pack
Each of the base classes has a starting pack of items that includes things they will find useful on their
adventures. Each pack cost 50 gil to buy a replacement.
Adventurer's Pack: Included 100ft of rope, chalk, a tent and everything needed to set one up, a bedroll, a pick,
three torches, and flint and steel, among mundane trifles.
Thief's Pack: Includes a lockpick set, a 6ft pole, manacles, a set of dark clothing, a bedroll, and flint and steel,
among mundane trifles.
Mage's Pack: Includes a pouch of regents for spellcasting, paper and ink, oil, a lantern, three candles, and a
bedroll, among mundane trifles.

Mounts
While airship travel is common for traveling great distances, anyone planning on adventuring through the
deserts or the icelands where the airships don't travel will eventually have to get themselves a loyal mount.
Fortunately, Ivalice is the home of a friendly and intelligent species of animal called a Chocobo.
Chobobos come in several breed, recognizable by the color of their feathers. The different varieties are:
Yellow: The most common and widespread, yellow chocobos can be found all over Ivalice. They are fairly
easy to tame, and many breeders have a wide stock for sale at relatively affordable prices.
White: The albino chocobo is not as rare as some believe, but it is very elusive. Incredibly skittish, it is tough
for a hume to even get close enough to try and tame one. Some tamers claim that it is caused by a strong
connection to the ether.
Black: One of the rarer breeds, it is the only chocobo known to have the capacity of flight.
Red: A violent and ill-tempered variety of the typically docile chocobo, they are tough to tame as mounts,
though skilled beastmasters have been seen riding between battles with them and then fighting side by side.
Gold: The rarest all choco breeds, gold chocobos are highly sought after both for the stunning color of their
feathers and for their speed, which handily surpasses all other breeds.

Other Mounts
Ivalice is also home to many horses, such as the powerful warhorses used by the Judges, and light rouncies
sometimes favored by the nobility for the smoothness of their strides. Uncommon mounts such as ponies, large
cats, and even unicorns are not considered strange sights. With enough gil and the proper handling skill, you
are free to travel Ivalice in the style you see fit.

Mounted Combat
When riding a mount into combat, you must roll Handle Animal each turn to keep control of the mount, unless
your mount is specifically trained for combat. A combat-trained mount will follow your orders to move through
combat without a roll. You can also order it to attack with its natural weapons in place of your action (if it has
one that is not being used for stability). While on a mount, you can attack normally, and use spells and
techniques that do not move you. Mounting and dismounting in combat takes an action.
Enemies may choose to attack you or your mount. If your mount takes damage, you must roll Handle Animal
with a Difficulty equal to the damage to remain mounted. Attacks directed at you can be blocked or parried as
normal while mounted, but you can not dodge Melee, Ranged, or Thrown Weapons. If you would be effected
by a spell, you may roll Handle Animal in place of a dodge. On a success, you take half damage and your
mount is unharmed.
Magic Weapons
Swords of flames, invisible daggers, arrows that veer towards their targets. Magic weapons are the stuff of
legends, forged in times forgotten and passed down through the generation. The greatest adventurers of our
time often mark their success by which artifact of power they have managed to wield.

Defender
Type: Knight-sword
Special: You are treated as having the Fighter Ability “Weapon Guard” while wielding this weapon.

Mage Masher
Type: Dagger
Special: HP damage dealt with this weapon is also dealt to the target's MP.

Slasher
Type: Greataxe
Special: Critical Hits with Slasher inflict the opponent with the Slow status.
Special Armor
It's tough to forge magic into something as big as an entire suit of armor, but that does not stop some from
trying bigger and better solutions to keep themselves from getting fried by a fire spell or cut by a sword.
Treated with special chemical, lined with glyphs in important places, or sometimes just adding more steel to the
point the wearer can barely move are all techniques used to create these unique suits of armor.

White Mage's Vestments

Type: Robes
Special: You take half damage from Fire, Water, Earth, and Air sources. Does not stack with other effects that
halve damage.
Magical Accessories
Without true magic armor to speak of, the most powerful warriors supplement their armor with magical helms,
ribbons, scarfs, and so on. You can only have Magic Accessory equipped at a time.

Auto-Shell Amulet
Special: Whenever you are the target of a spell that would deal HP damage to you, you are automatically
effected the Shell status, which lasts until the end of the turn.

Black Mage's Hood

Special: Your Max MP is increased by by 1 per Character Level.
