Characters in the Wild ARMs main series have usually had their own unique way of fighting in battle that could be described as a character class. Each of the character carries an ARM that can download various job classes and allow that character instant access to each downloaded class. You cannot switch classes during the course of a battle but are given the oppourtunity to change clases on the world map or in the prepreation phase before a battle.
Classes will alter the battle parameters of a character but will not have a perminant affect on their parameters or growth. Each class has up to four Original Commands and a series of personal skills. Original Commands are skills that can be used in the battlefield such as special physical attacks, magic spells, parameter altering abilities, etc. Personal Skills are attributes that are automatically activated during the course of battle such as an increased likelyhood of critical attacks or healing MP when guarding.
As the character gains more Class Points CSP they will be able to use an amount of these original skills and personal skills while being in different classes allowing for diverse and versitile characters. Each character listed in the "Hero" section has a unique class that only they can access in addition to the general classes.
Drifters hired at bars and inns can only choose from general classes. At the beginning of the game there are only four general classes avalible but many more are obtained over the course of the game.
A five-chapter manga was released, drawn by Karin Suzuragi [1] and containing epilogue of a year time skip and reunion of the members of Chevalet Blanc, including Felius Arwin whose fate was left ambiguous in the game's ending.

The franchise consists of several Western-themed role-playingvideo games and related media. Since the launch of the original Wild Arms title in , [2] the series has gone on to encompass several media, including toys, manga, mobile phone applications, and a episode anime.
Wild Arms is noteworthy as being one of the few role-playing video game series to adopt an American Old West motif. The series has largely been overseen by producer Akifumi Kaneko and is viewed as a cult classic among other role-playing game franchises. The Wild Arms games are popular in Japan. Wild Arms was the first role-playing video game project of Media. Vision that had been known primarily for their shooter game series Crime Crackers and Rapid Reload. Vision to create a game that would combine elements of a traditional RPG with limited 3D graphics to promote the hardware of their newly released PlayStationconsole.
Utilizing a unique approach to setting and character design, Wild Arms set the standard for all future games in the series. Drawing inspiration from American westerns, as well as western-themed manga such as Yasuhiro Nightow's Trigun , Kaneko and Fukushima crafted a video game world that resembles the contemporary fantasy environment seen in similar titles, but with added allusions to gun-play, outlaws, lawmen, and wilderness tamers.
The background music of Wild Arms follows the games' continued motif by providing a soundtrack reminiscent of Western films. The groundwork for the series' music was laid by composer Michiko Naruke, who had previously only written the scores to Super Nintendo Entertainment System titles. While classically influenced, the music of each game often diverges into other genres, including folk, rock, electronic, swing, and choral. The usage of firearms factors heavily into the Wild Arms mythos.
Called 'ARMs', these weapons are often associated with ancient technology and represent a more violent and warlike age; thus, a social stigma is often given to anyone possessing or using them. The practical usage of ARMs, either to protect or destroy life, is left to the user's discretion, and serves as a plot point within each game to establish a character's true motives.
Environmentalism is also a key factor in many Wild Arms games, which often center around the restoration of the environment that has long since been tainted, either by warfare or natural phenomena.
The governing forces of the planet are personified as 'Guardians', spirit-like anthropomorphic creatures who act as the gods of natural aspects such as water, fire, and wind, along with human traits such as love, hope, and courage. The primary heroes of each game often ally themselves with these Guardians to defeat technology-reliant or ecologically unconscious villains who would either subjugate or destroy the world to suit their respective goals.
Each Wild Arms story takes place on a planet called Filgaia, though each 'Filgaia' appears to be an entirely separate world with a different arrangement of continents, in similar tradition to the discontinuity between games of the Final Fantasy series. Several other land types and climates exist, including forests, mountainous regions, grasslands, and Arctic tundras, though their predominance varies from one game to the next.
Filgaia is also home to a number of different races including the Native American-inspired Baskars, nature-dwelling Elws, and vampiric Crimson Nobles. An opportunistic senate has formed its own police force and is gradually usurping power from the royal family. It is against this backdrop of political intrigue and social decay that the main character Clarissa Arwin, accompanied by her half-brother and protector, Felius, enter Elesius hot on the trail of Rupert Dandridge, the man who murdered her mother.
What started out as a personal vendetta soon turns into an epic battle to not only keep a kingdom from falling, but to save the world of Filgaia from being turned into an uninhabitable wasteland.
