  The Blue Mage
As long as he/she is conscious, a Blue Mage may voluntarily forget a spell at as a move action that does not provoke an attack of opportunity.
Whenever a Blue Mage learns a spell, he or she can conserve the energy involved in its casting and gains a temporary spell slot for the sole use of the spell just learned.
For Blue Magic considerations, the spell is considered to be the level of the slot expended by the original caster (so a Maximized Fireball is a 6th level spell).

 Blue Mage - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Blue Mage is a character class (or "job") featured in Square Enix's Final Fantasy series of computer role-playing games, in which the character utilises blue magic, a specialized school of magic which replicates the special attacks of various monsters through observation, or, in the majority of cases, by being targeted and surviving an attack.
Originally Blue Mages were notable for wearing blue domino masks, but throughout the Final Fantasy series have not retained any distinct image like that of the White Mage and Black Mage.
Blue mages are similar to red mages, in this game, in that they have decent physical combat abilities.

 True Blue
Blue’s mastery of the art of magic allows it the ability to stop spells in their tracks or even reverse them.
Blue makes use of illusions and spells that cause the opponent’s own magic to work in different ways than it expects.
Thus, blue is the color most often to use technology and has the greatest synergy with artifacts.

 Judgment Limited Review: Blue
Judgment's blue expands the template's horizons in that its variation of the nightmare mechanic has produced massive creatures for their costs that should really help both blue-green and blue-white decks while blue-fl may be able to survive thanks to the more control-oriented approach those creatures will allow it.
Blue's answer to Kirtar's Desire, Lost in Thought can go one better by suppressing creature abilities as well, giving blue mages a way of coping with Cabal Torturer, Chainflinger and the like.
The whole point of blue decks having quick generic creatures is to slow down opposing aggression until blue's control elements take over, but the Newt slows you down when you're trying to get to the midgame as fast as possible.

 Final Fantasy XI - Category:Blue Magic - FFXIclopedia
The maximum number of blue magic spells that can be set at one time is also determined by the blue mage's level.
This maximum number may decrease when the blue mage is under a level restriction and so the set numbers are assigned a color for easy reference.
Unlike all other types of Magic, Blue Magic Spells are stronger against certain types of mobs, and weaker against others, depending on the Ecosystem the spell came from; For example: Sprout Smack is acquired from Saplings (From the Plantoid ecosystem).

In times of great distress, the mage may also bring fourth the elemental within him and while unable to cast his flame magic's, he temporarily regains his Elemental mage spells until the two are rejoined.
Also able to draw out the elemental bound within, the wind mage temporarily looses her specific abilities and must once again rely on her skills as an elemental mage until she is reunited with her elemental.
Death mages do not draw on the chi from their surroundings, instead they draw the death energy from their victims and re-channel it to cause more death, which only provides them with more energy, and thus the perfect weapon.

 Siliconera » New info on Blue Mage and Corsair jobs
Blue mages won’t be able to use every skill they learn in combat.
This is obviously a balance issue to prevent blue mages from camping in high level parties and obtaining powerful spells with each monster slain.
So blue magic’s strength and accuracy depends on the type of monster you got it from and the type of monster you’re using it on.

Emperor Balrahn, the then ruler of Aht Urhgan, was shocked by the futility of his veteran palace guards and mages in the face of a chimera rebellion--an incident in which his son, the crown prince, was assassinated.
Blue magic is an art that allows a person to mimic the awesome powers of monsters and far exceed the normal boundaries of mortals.
However, a blue mage uses the techniques of beasts in the form of a person, placing enormous strain on his or her physical self.

 Gaming World // Tutorials - Blue Magic Made Easy!   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
Blue magic is "Magic derived from (observing/getting the crap blown outta you by) an enemy technique." as it says in the tutorial.
If so, have the Blue Mage learn "Bad Breath", and maybe give a little congratulatory message to the player, as a way of saying that all the time blown on hunting Marlbolos/Lawyers/Gym Teachers was not in vain, and they now wield a (supposedly) fearsome power as proof of their valiant endeavors.
Simply put a fork condition that checks whether the blue mage is in the party or not, and put all of the coding in between the 'YES' area.

 Profile: Blue Dragon Mages - Message Board - ezboard.com
Mages should always be on the side of good, but in a world with few absolutes, good is not always easy to identify.
In particular, a mage should not take either side of a dispute when both parties could be in the right (or wrong).
However, most Blue Dragon mages are human, since the school's basic concept of magic involves a neutrality that members of other races often do not see.

Example: a Blue Mage who learns irresistible dance would learn it as a 6th level spell if it was cast by a Bard, but as an 8th level spell if cast by a Sorcerer or Wizard.
Depending on how "in-tune" the Blue mage is to Magic, at a certian level (s)he could possible contort the path of the magic mid-flight and simple redirect it.
Blue Magic (Ex): The only way a blue mage may learn new spells is to be hit with them.

Blue Mage - A very decent physical fighter, the Blue Mage comes close to the ranks of the knight in terms of offensive power.
Even if you can't have Blue Mage in your party for some reason, it is a very good idea to keep the learn ability on at least two of your fighters, so if an enemy launches a special attack, you have a good chance of learning it.
A Blue Mage certainly makes inane level-up battles much more gratifying, and because of this the Blue Mage ranks high in my personal list of favorite classes.

This is achieved by either an obscene usage of low-level magic, or through the raping of the Blue Mage's anus (The semen of any Red Mage is mostly highly-concentrated acid, much like the blood of Aliens, made famous by Oscar Wilde in his film E.T.).
Red Mages are most commonly found in the (un)popular RPG series, Final Fantasy, to which they prepare for their duties by maxing-out a selection of statistical attributes.

If Hock the Blue Mage is representative of all the other Final Fantasy Blue Mages, it is no wonder I have forgotten the whole sorry lot.
Since the "token Blue Mages" need to be judged both by the worth of their characters and by their usefulness in battle, I narrowed it down to Quistis, Quina and Kimahri.
Kimahri, cool cat that he is, is out, because (1) his Blue Magic is available only by way of Overdrive (though at least he can use one as soon as he learns a new one) and (2) he's the easiest character to screw up on the Sphere Grid.
