BATTLEMAGE
Since the dawn of humankind, when our ancestors first discovered the killing power of rock and bone, blood has been spilled in the name of everything, from gods to justice to simple, psychotic rage. It was only a matter of time when magic was first applied to the battlefield. They come in a variety of forms, alignments and backgrounds. But in essence, a battlemage is the perfect balance between a warrior and a mage.
A battlemage is at their best when they have a clear path to their foes and someone to watch their back. When a battlemage is outnumbered in melee, they are highly vulnerable and usually try to avoid it. In addition to being a mobile artillery platform, they often have other magic at their disposal which may prove useful to other party members.
Battlemages are trained in a military fashion, and are expected to contribute more to an engagement than just spells. Thus, they receive roughly the same amount of weapon proficiency as a cleric. Battlemages have proficiency in light armor and light shields, but must keep one hand free if they wish to cast anything.
