Just putting together a character for a friend's campaign... we're at about 11th lvl (I'm a late entry) and as I was looking to put my character together, I came across the idea of... for lack of a better term, a mage assassin.
Now, I know what you're saying 'hey, assassin has arcane spells, you n00b! Use that!' But I'm looking to see if anyone knows of feats/spells/PrC that would fit this archetype of an arcane spellcaster that sulks about, but focuses more on spells and shadow-y forces and the like, rather than sneak attack or a death attack.
I guess the idea is, while to have some basic skill in hide/move silenty and that sort of thing, the character gets by more with the bent of his arcane abilities, then anything else.
The one thought I /did/ have was that the Illusionist variants in Unearthed Arcana was pretty close to the sort of thing I was looking at...
Any thoughts?
