I for one think No Doubt, SOLDIER should be a Prestige Class, purely because of the context of the class, You were a really great militiaman in the Shinra army, therefore you were taken in for the soldier program.

I agree with THIS statement from the post... I really liked the SOLDIER prestige class, but I think it would be hard to implement in the system judging by the story and restrictions from the company involved with the Prestige class... It may be neat having an allegiance to a company and having to conduct yourself in a specific way as to not besmirch the "ethics", codes, and tenets of a company, possibly even getting side missions from your employers(a contact controlled by the DM would send secret messages or a courier), but that seems pretty difficult to incorporate.

Either way, SOLDIERs are infused with jenova cells and mako energy, and would have bonuses based on that. Maybe you could even lose the need for keeping with the tenets and rules of Shinra if you became an Ex-SOLDIER, like Cloud did, but maybe you would lose the ability to continue levelling up with the SOLDIER prestige class. Just spit-balling here, ideas flowing out.

Doesn't even have to be Shinra necessarily, unless it's in a FF VII campaign.

On that note, even the Turks would be a possibility, but same issues.
