First Post
Here is the homebrew of the Elements of Magic that I have thusfar decided to use. I think it balances the spell power a little better. I also offer a way to specialize and still use only the Mage class.
Have at it.

SPELLCASTERS
SPELLCASTER FRAMEWORKS
Casters can limit the sorts of spells they are able to cast in order to gain additional Magical Boons. This can be done at any time, but it constrains all further spell casting. So if a character decides to take on a framework, she is unable to cast the limited spells (even if she has already acquired a spell-list), lost spell lists are not replaced. Frameworks do not affect the acquisition of boons at all. Only one Framework can be taken ever, though it may be taken at any time.
Eg. Willa is a 3rd Mage when she decides to become a Black Mage. She gets an additional Minor Boon, but can no longer caster any spell using a White Element, and must choose only 3 non-elemental spell-lists from her known lists. If she has more than 3 non-elemental spells or any white elemental spell lists, those are lost.
Sample Frameworks:
Black/White Elementalist= 1 Minor Boon
[Can select up to 1 non-elemental spell-list per level]
Lesser Elemental Specialist (three related elements only) = 1 Medium Boon (or 2 minor)
[Can select up to 1 non-elemental spell-list per level]
Greater Elemental Specialist (one element only) = 1 Major Boon (or equivalent)
[Can select up to 1 non-elemental spell-list per 2 levels]
Mentalist (only the following lists : Alter Reality, Astral Projection, Charm, Command, Compel, Dominate, Enthrall, Instill Emotion, Mass Projection, Telekinesis, Telepathy) = 1 Medium Boon
Warmage (half level progression = .5 spellcaster levels per class level) = Martial Weapons Proficiency + all Armor Proficiencies + d6 HD.
Enchanters (No Elemental Spells) = 2 Medium Boons
(Elves can take any specialist class as a favored class)
Magic Points:
In addition to the normal recovery from rest, Spell Casters may also burn their own hit points as Magic Points. However, such hit points can only be recovered through long term rest. They cannot be healed magically, and recover at a rate or 1/level/day.
ELEMENTAL SIDE EFFECTS
Acid - Low Intensity = Acid Splash 1hp (in area of effect or 5ft radius)
Biomatter - Low Intensity = Tangle (Target gets Reflex save or suffers -2 Attack and -4 Penalty to Dexterity, Reduced to half speed and cannon run or charge, if entangled creature tries to cast a spell it must make a concentration check (DC15) or fail. The Entangled creature can escape with an Escape Artist Check (DC20) or by doing 5 hps of damage to the entangling items (Hardness = Spell level) or with a Strength burst (DC=20+Spell Level).
Biomatter - Medium Intensity = (Tangle + Suffocation or Bludgeon). As above and entanglement causes either bludgeoning attacks or suffocation.
Lava - Low Intensity = Light Fire
AVAILABLE CLASSES
The spell casting classes available are Mage, Bard, Ranger, Paladin. Specialized classes can be created by using Spell Frameworks (above).
> Bards get 8+Int skill points per level. retain all core song abilities and knowledge skills.
> Rangers get d10 HD, and 6 skill points +Int per level
> Paladins get specific sets of spell-lists and elements (based on their religion).
SKILLS
New Magic Skill Applications:
Herbalism (Can heal ability damage caused by damage through expenditure of MPs) It takes 10 minutes per attempt, requires a skill check of DC = to the Poison's DC+Ability Points to be Healed, it costs Magic Points equal to the ability points healed. Magic Points are expended whether or not the skill check is successful.
Healing (Can Heal hitpoints damage by expending MPs). It takes 10 minutes per attempt, requires a skill check of DC = 10+1/hit point sought to be healed. It costs magic points equal to hit points sought to be healed, whether successful or not. Any sort of damage can be healed this way.
BOONS
MINOR BOONS
[New] Blood Magic (Su): Caster recovers hit points used in the casting of spells at twice the rate they normally recover (2/level/day).
[New] Bonus Cantrips: The Mage gains an additional 3 free 0-level spells.
Minor Magical Infusion (Su):
New Infusions..
> +2 bonus to one of your magical skills (alchemy, dispel magic, divination, healing, herbalism, intuit direction, scry, spell craft).
> The Mage can produce a single low level elemental side effect from their body as a standard action that requires 1MP.
> Choose 2 cross-class skills and treat them as class skills henceforth.
Skill Cantrips (Sp): The Mage can use free cantrip slots as 1MP each for the purposes of magical skill operation (Divination, Spellcraft, Dispel, Heal, etc..)
MODERATE BOONS
Animagus (Sp): The Mage picks one normal animal that is between Diminutive and Medium size. She can polymorph (not alter) self into the shape of that animal at will, as a standard action. A human could thus turn into a wolf or raven, but not a tiger.
Clerical Domain: The Mage picks the domain of the religion she is a pious follower of. When casting spells from that domain, the mana cost is reduced by 1 for spells over 1st level, and all 0th level spells are free (but still count to maximum each day). Thus a 2nd level domain spell would cost 2 mana rather than 3.
Moderate Magical Infusion (Su):
New Infusions...
> Increase HD (d4 to d6, d6 to d8, etc..) Not retroactive.
MAJOR BOONS
Divine Grace (Su): Add your Charisma bonus to your saving-throws
Major Magical Infusion (Su):
New Infusions
> Spell Evasion (take no damage from spells (only) that do half damage with a save)
Summon Improved Familiar: As per the Feat in Tome Magic.
Spell-list errata

This spell list creates a visible shield of some element that provides protection to the caster. It protects the caster from attacks coming from a number of connected squares selected by the caster at the beginning of each round (Free Action to change).
Solid elements (Crystal, Death, Earth, Force, Ice, Lava, Metal, nature) provide cover to the caster. Gas/Liquid elements (Acid, Air, Fire, Life, Light Lightning, Mud, Shadow, Sonic, Steam, Void, water) provide concealment.
Creatures that attempt to attack through the shield suffer from elemental side effects starting at 2nd level. Creatures in the squares from which the caster protected suffer from one level lower elemental side effects (starting at 4th level) (Reflex save for 1/2 damage).
The Elemental Shield acts like normal cover or concealment for any attacks, spells or effects aimed at the caster (even from allies), but it does not interfere with the attacks, spells or caster?s ability to see.
Only one elemental shield can be up at a time, if a new shield is cast it will simple replace the previous version.

Magehand - As per Cantrip
Unseen Servant - As per core spell
Telekinetic sphere - carry up to the weight limit move at a 20 speed
Persistent Servant - As per unseen servant, but permanent in the area it is created, can roam with the medium range of the target.
Forceful Thrust - Can grab, bash or throw objects of up to weight limit. can do 1d6/level up to 15d6 (save for half)
Repulsion - can keep a creature or multiple creature within the mass limits from moving towards caster. Reflex save negates.
Telekinetic Engine - allows caster to launch missiles catapult style up to full range. Takes a full round action to grab and launch a missile.
Great lift - Caster is able to lift enormous weights of unsecured objects. Thus caster could life a small ship, or fallen treat, or even a great boulder. Movement is 40 Speed.
Reverse gravity - as per core spell
Force wave - Caster generates a wave of telekinetic energy that has a chance of knocking back creatures within long range of the caster. This does 1hp/level damage (reflex save for 1/2). In addition it acts as a bull rush/trip from a medium sized creature with a strength equal to the intelligence + level of the caster. For every 5points higher the caster gets on the roll the opponent is pushed back 5ft.
Have at it.
