The Time Mage (時魔道士, Tokimadōshi?) is a Job class from Final Fantasy Tactics. They are a supportive magical Job class, and if left alone, can quickly bestow a number of beneficial status effects on their allies and debuffs on their foes, turning the tide of battle. The Time Mage's only offensive spell is Meteor, which is devastating, but takes a long time to charge. It costs 8,320 JP to master this Job. As of War of the Lions, the Time Mage costs 8,920 JP to master, as several spells saw increases in JP needed to learn them.
The so called "Dragqueen" character is a glitched Time Mage found in Midlight's Deep.
Leveling up Time Mage to level 3 unlocks Summoner, and leveling it up to level 4 with Mystic, Black Mage, and White Mage unlocks Arithmetician.

Time Magic/Time Magicks
Edit
Time mage job command. Enables the use of magicks that manipulate time and space.
The success rate for status changing abilities are as follows:
- (MagickAttack + PWR)x(Faith / 100)x(TargetFaith / 100)
The damage formula is as follows for damage-inflicting skills:
- MagickAttackxPWRx(Faith / 100)x(TargetFaith / 100)
Of important note, Hasteja and Slowja have a 20% chance of randomly being learned in battle by a Time Mage who has yet to learn the spell and is inflicted with the status.
