Let us see what we can come up with. Basically the concept is a character who can spellcast like a normal mage or can create varying levels of magic weapons to combat his foes. However, to use these powerful weapons and shields he must have his hands free - making him vulnerable if he cannot summon them. Hope I didn't go over on skills.
