Well, if you really wanted to lower the amount of jobs I have an idea. Since it's steampunk, maybe we automatons that can fill in some positions and eliminate the need for a character to fill it, but still leaving the position intact.

I second this. 

Although I, for one, would not be opposed to playing more than one character. Jobs can be combined as well, it could be a mix of all three.
