    When I saw the thread preview, I thought, "That'd be pretty cool if it weren't half as dismal as that Red Ninja game."

    I sure hope she isn't going to be dressed that skimpy (yes, I know, you like it, so don't mind me), otherwise, that drawing is awesome. I'd like to see the main character be a female dragoon (human, not like Freya, more like Kain). Then have the guy be a summoner. But the girl would be the actual main character, not just a main girl, but the main overall character.

    A pirate or a viking would be good.

    A mage would be interesting. And original for FF. Ive always liked Thiefs. The ones Id like to see most are a gunner main character or a fist fighter. NOT a monk. A *fist fighter.

    We had a gunner main character in FFX-2 and a thief main character in FFIX.

    I'd love to know the difference between a monk and a "fist fighter."

    A mage would be an interesting main hero, and a rather nice change, perhaps.

    Pirate or viking sounds good. Especially viking

    Perhaps even an archer main character, but I guess archers and mages aren't really seen as "heroes" in comparison to knights and thieves.
    Not my words Carol, the words of Top Gear magazine.

    I'd love to see a pirate, and a female heroine of some sort would definitly be nice. I know X-2 had it, but I'd like to see one leading a group of males, or at the center of the story like in VI.

    I'd love to see a story about a lonesome female Bard, that'd be great.

    A fist fighter is kind of like a brawler or, basically, any fighter who doesn't like carrying weapons and is inept when it comes to using various parts of his body other than his fists for fighting.

    Monks are, like, worshippers. You hear about them a lot in Eastern religions. They wear robes, isolate themselves from society and spend all their time worshipping and making sacrifices for their worship. Maybe they won't eat, speak, have sex, cut their hair, grow their hair, come within a certain distance of any city etc...
    They are also commonly known for their various writings. They're great unreliable historians. They survive all the wars because of sanctity of religion and non-affiliation with sides of a war, and then they recreate history with their religious spin etc.

    They're really two very different kinds of people. Los of monks, in fact, have even taken vows against violence, or so I hear.

    Personally, I'd be much more interested in a Final Fantasy with a Monk for a main character than a fist fighter. But, in ALL honesty, I'm with Chris. I think it's time we had a bard.

    I was only talking in terms of Final Fantasy, obviously. In this series, a monk and a fistfighter refer to the same type of person.

    Thats not obvious and Martyr has summed up my opinion on the difference perfectly. Yes I know there have been thiefs and I want more. I HATED the gunner main character in X-2 mainly in personality. A gunner main character with a personality of any of the other FF main characters would have done the job perfectly for me. I want them to take another wack at the gunner role....or they could just....

    So... chicks with guns, and a guy with a bunch of really bad cliched one-liners that can turn into a demon-thing.

    No not exactly. I love Marias personality and though Dante is extremely irritating I loved both theyre fighting styles.
