Imagine taking a real world stereotypical librarian or chemist (who didn't have a background of like being ex-military or mixed martial artist) but giving them a spectacular limited set of things they could call up once in a while, and then sending them off with the crew from Predator.   What if the full caster wizard with the current spell list went back to that - d4 hp, really bad to hit, etc...   And then if someone doesn't want to be a complete glass cannon they should spend some levels multiclassing and getting trained in something combat useful.Or, if that would be an unfun trap class for most people, put it in the DMG and make the default be a 3/4 caster and put that in the PHB.</blockquote>
