#REDIRECT [[Class]]
Eorzea is home to myriad disciplines, or '''classes''', suitable to every adventuring style. Each class is capable of performing unique actions acquired through experience. Furthermore, achieving a certain level of mastery in multiple classes will unlock [[job]]s, which feature even greater specialization.
 
To be better prepared to brave the wilds, all adventurers begin their journey as either a [[#Disciples of War|Disciple of War]]—a master of arms who lives for the call of battle—or a [[#Disciples of Magic|Disciple of Magic]]—an erudite researcher of all things esoteric.
 
Experienced adventurers can take up other martial classes to diversify their skills. If you seek more peaceful pursuits, you may consider becoming a [[#Disciples of the Land|Disciple of the Land]]—one who gathers and harvests Eorzea’s natural resources—or a [[#Disciples of the Hand|Disciple of the Hand]]—one who uses these resources to craft wares and turn a profit.
