Hm. If you put it like that, you have a point. After all, we have combat 
and, while not non-combat, certainly less combat-ready classes 
(hero/knight/cavalier vs. buro/trader/infil) so maybe Artist could be an 
alternative to the adventurer class, for those people who don't like to 
roleplay their studious servants fighting undead and monster champions ;-)

Not that I think it would be implemented any time in the enar future (if at 
all), but at least it would fit.
