The Time Mage controls time and space. This sorcerer toys with the laws of the universe.
Time Mage is a job from Final Fantasy Tactics unlocked by achieving level 2 in Black Mage. A supportive magickal job, if left alone a Time Mage can quickly bestow a number of beneficial status effects on their allies and cripple their foes with ailments, turning the tide of battle. The Time Mage's only offensive spell is Meteor, which is devastating, but takes a long time to charge, and the Gravity spells, which can hurt enemies by a fourth of their HP or half of their HP, if they hit. Time Mage costs 8,320 JP to master in the original version and 8,920 JP The War of the Lions.
The so called "Dragqueen" character is a glitched Time Mage found in Midlight's Deep.
Leveling Time Mage to level 3 unlocks Summoner, and leveling it to level 4 with Mystic, Black Mage, and White Mage unlocks Arithmetician.
