I'm not one for a frenemy idea. Plus my character is going to be calm as well, so there's going to be no spark there, unless we can work out a back story.

As far as frontier jobs go I'm thinking things as simple as carpenters, sailors, and even a representative of the higher-ups would be acceptable. Anything needed to start a basic city or livable environment. Think Pocahontas? Haha I'm going with a ranger/scout that can double has a hunter.

From what I understand you don't have to be a magic user, but it will be helpful not just for your character but also in the pairing. I'm going with magic that's just there to support her other skills. Just sound based stuff; my character can change her voice and throw it around within a certain radius, then she has a confuse ray type skill. That's it :)
