If you've ever played the game, you should know how this will go down. This is on the same continent as the original Fire Emblem.
There has been an uprising against man, the "furred ones", as they have been called, have led this charge against the humans. Ostia and Pherae have allied themselves with the furred ones in order to end the tyrannical reign of the nation of Bern. Bern has been hunting down the furred ones and slaughtering them without mercy. This had brought about a war engulfing a small part of the continent. If it continues to spread, only one race will survive this conflict.
If you choose to fight alongside the furred ones, you will start off in either Ostia or Pherae. If you choose to fight against them, you will start off in Bern. The humans have the standard job list. The furred ones have most of those choices except for a few.
Human Job List
Mercenary: basic sword wielder(more powerful)
Myrmidon: basic sword wielder(has a better chance of a killing blow)
Fighter: basic axe wielder
Archer: basic bow and arrow wielder

Cavalier: Wields swords and lances from horseback[human]

The furred one's extra jobs:

Now, each weapon has a weakness. Swords are stronger than axes, axes are stronger than lances, and lances are stronger than swords. Archers can't attack units that are too close. If someone get up close to your archer, you'd better run. Some magic is stronger than others. Anima(fire, thunder, ice, and wind) is stronger than light magic, light magic is stronger than dark magic, and dark magic is stronger than Anima.

I packed up my bag, only packing essential supplies for the trip to Ostia. I slung my bow across my back, shouldering my quiver as well. My clothes not resembling the nobility I was. I packed a pouch full of healing concoctions in case I got wounded. I slowly made my way out of my room, silently sneaking down the stairs so I wouldn't wake up my parents or give our my presence to the guards. I slowly made my way through the shadows, avoiding guards was a must. I heard a clanking like the sound of metal against stone. I pinned myself against a pillar and held my breath, not knowing who it could have been.
