Like humans, the Humes fit the role as the versatile, Jack-of-all-Trades. Originating from the Bastok region, the Humes have spread to the farthest reaches of Vana'diel. The race is characterized by its equally balanced abilities, moderate Intelligence, and high level of skill in numerous areas. This combination of traits has played a large role in Bastok's growth into a prosperous nation of technology and industry. Players can choose to play as either a male or female Hume depending on their preference.
