A true tank actually doesn't have too much attack power or speed. They focus on defense and provoking. Which is why they usually have abilities to bring in hate or buff up defense. 

Cause if they don't, DPS or mages will get hate <.< always the white Mage I swear to god in every video game I've played. Always. 

*goes through montage of rages with white Mage death*
FF7: Sephiroth you doushe! I leveled her soooo much now I need to prep a new one!
FF9: Screw you silence! *insta death Dagger* GraaaAh! And screw you no magic area!
FF10: Yuna how can you die in a hit? Now I need to go level so I can at least summon my summons as well.
FF11: Guys... Hey guys, the white Mage is down again! Yeah I think they got aggro'd by five gobs! 
Dragon Age: Stop killing my Mage you stupid dragon! Hate meeeeee! Damn it Alistar Tank!
Tales of Vesperia: Ya know Estelle, I'd really appreciate it if... You heal faster!!!
Tales of Symphonia: Raine... Your a Mage so do me a favor. Stay the hell away from the enemies so you don't get mauled you dumb AI!!!!
Etc, etc

Anyways <.< since everyone's doing it, and it doesn't mean I'll change anything since I don't really want to give Ike extra work, Ryu can you look over mine? Yes there's typos but spare me because I blame the works of a iPhone >.<

Made first post, finally gonna look over and add a few characters to the roster. If your CS is in the first post you have authority to make your IC posts. If not, please wait and possibly you'll be added onto the list later. Also, if anyone can find a sexy picture of something to put in the first post (because I'm a scrub that couldn't find one) I would appreciate it, because it looks ugly and that makes me sad.
