Sage

From Final Fantasy Wiki

Tellah from Final Fantasy IV is a Sage.

The Sage (賢者 Kenja or セージ Sēji) is a job class that has appeared in a number of games in the Final Fantasy series. The sage could be considered the ultimate Red Mage, being able to cast both Black and White Magic. However, the sage is physically very weak with virtually no prowess with weapons. They also have very low MP and speed, and weak defenses as most mage-type classes do.

Tellah is a Sage and is able to cast limited White and Black Magic when he joins the party, as he has forgotten much of his spells in his old age. He later remembers the spells he has forgotten, giving him the ability to cast all but a select few spells. Fusoya is classified as a Lunarian, but also has the ability to use White and Black Magic. Unlike Tellah though, he has all the spells in the game. Both Tellah and Fusoya have very low MP, however.
