Bard (Final Fantasy V)

The Bard is a job in Final Fantasy V, which is part of the Fire Crystal job sets. However, the actual shard is located on a chocobo later on.

Appearance
The bard doesn't really look like they're going to sing. Perhaps the job is supposed to look like a minstrel or something.

Abilities

 * Job Command - Sing
 * Innate Abilities - None
 * Equipment - Short Sword, Harp

No inate ability and a weak command make the bard the weakest job in Final Fantasy V. Then again, the bard is one of the weakest jobs in Final Fantasy as a whole. Singing songs will usually buff your party, but your bard can't do anything while singing, making them a sitting duck.

Level-Up Abilities

 * Name: Hide

One of the most useless commands. Since you can't heal the hidden target, there's no real point in hiding, since you aren't going to be hiding characters with lots of HP.

Any job with this ability will be able to equip Harps.

Lets any job use the sing command.
