Event || Worldwide Tourists

Who: All New Arrivals and Curti Center Staff
When: April 15th-30th
Where: All over Vaikuntha, starting outside of the airship hanger
What: Ganeshan, the resident Job Expert, will be taking the new arrivals around the the various Guilds so they can collect their chosen Job Asterisks as noted in their applications.
Warnings/Notes: Guild prompts can be found here

Enter the Master

[Each new arrival's iMog buzzes with a message instructing them to gather for a worldwide adventure to obtain the power of Vaikuntha. If they follow the invitation's instructions, they will arrive at outside of the airship hanger on the morning of the 15th, with their meager belongings packed.

An Enterprise-Class airship, the Ragnarok, hovers outside of the Curti Center. There is a flash of light on the top of the ship.]


"WELCOME!"

[A figure, minuscule at this distance, launches itself off of the ship and hurtles toward the ground. As he draws closer to the ground, he starts to flip, landing with a flourish. An armored figure, sans helm, turns his toothy Zora grin to the crowd. With a shimmer, his armor transforms into a white mage's robe, and he sends a rush of wind through the crowd for dramatic effect.]

"I AM GANESHAN, THE JOB MASTER! GYA HA HA HA! TODAY, YOUR LIVES WILL CHANGE FOREVER."

[Ganeshan shimmers again, ruthlessly abusing the Chemist's Modifier skill to once again shift Job Classes so he can lower the airship's loading dock with a wave of his hand.]

"I BELIEVE THAT EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU HAS THE ABILITY TO MASTER THE JOB CLASSES. SOME OF YOU MAY MASTER MANY, OTHERS WILL PURSUE THE PERFECT MASTERY OF JUST ONE. BUT EITHER WAY, YOU'LL BE INCREDIBLE!"

[Ganeshan gives everyone a big thumbs-up. The out-worlders who are not scared off by this booming speech can feel free to enter the airship and prepare for their ride around the world. Hopefully some of the Curti Center's newest hires can serve as non-crazy less exuberant tour guides for the new arrivals.]

Around the World

[The Ragnarok will be stopping at every major city in Vaikuntha, with the exception of those cut off by the Imperial border closing. Characters can create top levels to respond to the Guild prompts and explore the cities themselves as the ship makes its stops. Each Guild provides information sessions, free food and trinkets for potential applicants, and once you're ready to receive your Asterisk, all you have to do is take some introductory lessons and fill out forms. Characters can receive up to two asterisks. Time to get to know your new world!

Questions for Ganeshan can be directed to the Ganeshan top level post.]

[ Lean's had his share of helping out newbies, so when he approaches Ganeshan, it's to ask a question of a more selfish nature. ]

I've heard that Geomancers posses a much better understanding of nature and its processes, which in turns allow them to manipulate not just earth, but plants as well... is that true?

[ Never mind the tunnels - making flowers grow with a mere touch of your finger? Now that's cool. ]

MOST OF THE ACTIVE SKILLS FOCUS ON EARTH AND STONE, BUT THEY ALSO HAVE AN EXTREMELY GREEN THUMB! IT IS A PEACEFUL ABILITY, THOUGH, AND THE GEOMANCERS I HAVE MET PREFER TO USE THIS ABILITY AS A HOBBY RATHER THAN WEAPONIZING IT.

[Lean, Ganeshan will never turn away a question about Jobs! Whether you've been on Vaikuntha for a week or your whole life, there is still more to learn about Jobs.]

[ Well, he’s glad he took the opportunity to ask because this answer is precisely what he was looking for! There’s a curious glint in his eye. ]

Oh - it didn’t even cross my mind to use such a skill as a weapon. I simply think it would be very interesting to investigate the extent of side-effects these Jobs carry even outside of the battlefield.

That being said... [ He hesitates for a bit, but Ganeshan is clearly a well-informed guy! ] Since I’m aiming to acquire a Supreme Skill, I need to be really careful about my skill sets. Would you say Geomancer could be a good fit for a combination of Cavalier and Chemist, or would you recommend a more universal pick that is Black Mage?

PURSUING A SUPREME SKILL? HOW WONDERFUL!

[It is sad to not be able to take on 10 Jobs, but truly mastering one Job is important as well. Ganeshan approves. He pats Lean on the shoulder gently, mindful of his Zora strength.]

BLACK MAGE IS A POWERFUL JOB, BUT YOU SHOULD CHOOSE JOBS THAT YOU WILL LOVE, NOT JOBS YOU THINK YOU SHOULD TAKE. IF YOU ENJOY MAGIC, IT IS A GOOD CHOICE.

GEOMANCER SKILLS WILL ALLOW YOU TO GROW INGREDIENTS FOR YOUR CHEMIST'S POTIONS AND WILL GIVE YOU AND YOUR CHOCOBO A BOOST BASED ON TERRAIN. WITH THE CHEMIST'S MODIFIER, YOU CAN SWITCH BETWEEN JOBS, ALLOWING YOU TO BETTER RESPOND TO ENEMY THREATS. IF YOU PLAN TO LIVE IN CLOUD CITY OR FIGHT IN AERIAL BATTLES, GEOMANCER IS NOT WELL SUITED FOR THAT KIND OF COMBAT, BUT OTHERWISE, IT IS A SOLID CHOICE.

[ It's ridiculous how flustered it makes him feel to get such words of praise. Then again, it might be partially due to the fact the Zora shouts them out for everyone else to hear. ]

... Actually, I don't like the cold climate of Cloud City that much. [ He smiles sheepishly. ] Thanks, Ganeshan, I appreciate the advice. I'll try to make the best out of it.

[What reason would Ganeshan have to hide his praise of a young Job Seeker? He is not shy in letting people know when he's proud of them. Besides, Curti Center employees have to support one another, do they not?]

YOU KNOW I'VE ALWAYS GOT TIME FOR JOB QUESTIONS, LEAN. YOU'LL HAVE TO LET ME KNOW HOW THIS COMBO WORKS OUT FOR YOU!
