okay, ive been playing things like final fantasy 11 and final fantasy tatics advanced and ive been wondering something about dragoons

WHY do they jump so high, or have the ability?

i know that actaully dragoons are like old french soldiers but im talking about fantasy dragoons like in FF

there's not much i could find on this subject, but "dragoons" are soldiers blessed with exceptional "aireal and jumping" abilities.

they're nicknamed dragoons because their "key" ability lies in attacking from the sky....much like actual dragons themselves. dragons don't stay "grounded" for long, as they're somewhat "limited" within their fighting prowess if so. also, parts of the armor pay a bit of "homage" to the dragons themselves.....another indication of their namesake.
