Refia as a White Mage healing Ingus in Final Fantasy III.
Heal the body, heal the heart.
Dissidia Final Fantasy, White Mage Lore
White Mage (白魔道士? or 白魔道師, Shiromadōshi?, lit. White Magic Adherent), also called White Wizard, is a job class in the Final Fantasy series, and is featured in several installments. It is among the first job classes introduced in the series.
The Seer job is usually a stronger version of the White Mage, but other similar healing-type jobs exist in the series, like Bishop.
Profile
The White Mage's equipment includes staves and maces (as well as hammers in the original Final Fantasy), but in later installments they more commonly use magical rods instead. Their armor is limited to lightweight vests and mage robes. Their physical stats are usually higher than those of a Black Mage, but are not as high as some other classes. Their magic stats, of course, are high, though they tend to be a bit lower than a Black Mage or a Summoner.
The most prominent ability of a White Mage is to cast White Magic, which usually includes healing and support magic, but may also include status effect spells. In later installments, the White Mages have been given the ability Pray, in which the party's HP would be minimally restored for no cost. Their ability to heal, protect, and resurrect fallen members of the party make White Mages invaluable, as they are usually the only efficient way of healing.
White Mages tend to dress in white robes with red triangular lining. They tend to lean towards lighter armor, generally robes, and their robes are trimmed with red triangles that usually flare out from cuffs, around hems, or on the lining of the hood if they wear one. Most White Mages are female, but some males have been White Mages as well. Male White Mages generally do not wear hoods. Sometimes Summoners can also cast White Magic. The recurring White Robe and Cat-Ear Hood are related to this job. The White Mage is associated with one offensive attack, called Holy.
Appearances

Template:Sideicon
Although lacking in offensive power, White Mages are valuable due to their healing abilities. The upgraded White Wizard is even more powerful, having the ability to cast Full-Life and Holy.

Template:Sideicon Minwu is the royal White Wizard of Fynn, and one of the few male White Mages in the series. He has access to many high-level spells when he joins the party.
Final Fantasy III
Template:Sideicon
The White Mage job is gained from the Wind Crystal. White Mages excel in assisting the party with defensive and restorative White Magic. Some offensive magic is also available (Light and Wind). They possess low Attack power and Defense. After Devout becomes available, they only become back-up healers if there is a Devout and White Mage in the same party. Aria Benett, Sara Altney, Prince Alus and Unei aid the party with White Magic.

Template:Sideicon Dagger and Eiko cast White Magic along with Summon Magic, although Eiko has a greater dominance over it, while Dagger favors summoning. The latter also dresses in the traditional White Mage robes as a disguise early on.

Template:Sideicon
Medic has some new abilities exclusive to Paradigm Pack allies: Cheer, and Esunada. Noel can learn all the abilities available to the player characters, but has fairly low Magic.

Template:Sideicon Lightning can obtain a garb modeled after the White Mage job at the start of Day 4 from a treasure cube in the Ark. It has the abilities Dispel Lv. 2 and Quick Ruin Lv. 2, and the passive ability, Soul of the White Mage, which increases maximum HP by 5% and magic damage by 10%. Normal healing spells attributed to being white magic can't be used by Lightning as a normal ability, but she can use Curaga for 2 EP (Normal/Hard mode) or 1 EP (Easy mode) from the pause menu.
The Angel of Valhalla can use Cure and Curaja depending on his bond level while teamed up with Lightning in the Wildlands, but he can also use elemental spells so he is more like a Red Mage.
