[MENTION=48762]Leif[/MENTION],
feel free to add new spells - focus on control rather than damage, things that enable sneak attack are preferable
I would rather have shield as a wand than as prepared spell (due your lower number of spells per day) - you have the spellbook now so take care
you're unchained - you have dex to damage and weapon finesse with elven blade (or rapier if you prefer)
Pick one wand - you get to draw it as free action and activate it automatically (no UMD) - my advice, take some priestly or druidic magic (magic vestment, prayer or some such)
Buy spring wrist sheaths - put wands in each (or one wand and one potion)
Remember that your spell list is wizard/sorc so no UMD for those wands, but you still need it for divine or class only spells
Finally, favorite class bonus means you have one cantrip known extra - and you can use it 8 times a day (if you take it)
Alternative - replace surprise strike with major magic and take class bonus on that (first level wizard spell X times a day) <-- this will probably give more damage than single sneak attack in surprise round if you take damage spell.
Consider bookish rogue feat at some point in the future
Your first round should preferably be surprise round: hit the opponent with sneak attack, use debilitating strike to lower the AC, use swift mythic to repeat the attack hitting this lower AC and bypassing DR

History: Banaq is not your typical Elf. His name means, essentially, 'Can't Get Right' in Elvish. Orphaned as an infant in an attack by orcs, Banaq was given his name by other Elves who found him, and then he was adopted by the Human ambassador to his village who was one of very few survivors of the attack. His adoptive father instilled in Banaq a great appreciation for social interaction as well as Elvish art, literature, culture, and language. He was raised in a home where Elvish was spoken almost exclusively, so he considers it his native tongue even though he was taught it by Humans instead of Elves. Banaq's study of Elvish culture sparked his great interest in magic, but he did not have the overwhelming intellectual aptitude that he would have wished in order for him to pursue wizardly studies. He made do by apprenticing himself to a Half-Elf Sorcerer. He did receive the usual Elvish instruction in swordplay, however. Banaq once fell under the
Fear effect of a
Dretch demon that he was battling just after the Worldwound opened. He suffered the
fear only briefly before Sir Sheldon DeBir, his Paladin ally, rallied him back into the fight. Banaq, upset over his slip, smote the
Dretch down with one mighty blow.
MEDALS AWARDED FOR GALLANTRY IN WAR AGAINST THE WORLDWOUND:
Awarded the Righteous Medal of Clarity for gathering intelligence about the Worldwound and delivering it to the Crusaders. [+2 sacred bonus on saves vs. insanity or confusion effects.]
Awarded the Righteous Medal of Spirit after feeling the
Fear effect of a
Dretch demon before being rallied by Sir Sheldon DeBir, Paladin companion. [+2 sacred bonus vs. Charm and possession.]
[/sblock]
Description of Banaq:
Banaq looks quite youthful, as most elves do, but his shoulder-length hair is snow white, whether from mere genetics or a shock received in his formative years is a matter for speculation. The comfortably fitting elvish garb that he customarily wears is made from a light and supple, yet strong and warm fabric said to be woven from the webs of great spiders, or perhaps an even more exotic source. These garments are of a greenish-blue hue, with a coppery sheen visible in certain light. Banaq wears a tunic, leggings, and a cloak all made of this substance. He also customarily wears a veil or mask over the lower part of his face, as both a guard against unwanted familiarity and a sign of mourning for his family who are presumed lost.
