Job Origin Backgound

Wherever they come from, they have struck it out on their own during this time of world crisis for profit and recognition.

Notes
A balanced job stat-wise, though on low side on average and learning more towards melee. Has a varety of useful if not overly powerful skills and the basic weapon masters. Most of the mercenary skills are unrefined versions of other job skills but if it's between "use a weak skill or do nothing this round" a mercenary's flexibility is quite useful.
Mercenary as a Main Job
Mercenary offers an attractive balance of statistics, though its lack of focus in any area makes it hard to acomplish certain tasks. Without a very useful sub job Mercenary may be a bit too diverse and underpowered to perform effectively in late game. Soldier or Rogue can give Mercenary some of the advanced combat tactics it needs to perform well.
Mercenary as a Sub Job
The Mercenary's flexibility is much more useful in the less critical sub job role where it can fill in gaps in the fighting styles of other jobs. It gives Soldiers a ranged attack, lets Archers knock threatening melee fighters off of their high spots, or allows a Medic to go invisible for a time while it moves to a safer position. The stat balance gained at level up also ensures that the main job's primary statistics will be cared for.
