Based on Warmage. Will edit.
Basically a mystic blade with more sword abilities. Renaming spells and skills, etc. (Of course getting rid of some for balancing)

Mystic blades have the following game statistics.
Abilities: Charisma determines how powerful a spell
a mystic blade can cast, how many spells a mystic blade can cast
per day, and how hard those spells are to resist (see Spells,
below). A mystic blade?s Intelligence bonus is added to damage
dealt by spells through his mystic blade edge ability. Like a
sorcerer or wizard, a mystic blade benefi ts from high Dexterity
and Constitution scores.
Alignment: Any.
Hit Die: d6.

The mystic blade?s class skills (and the key ability for each
skill) are Concentration (Con), Craft (Int), Intimidate (Cha),
Knowledge (arcana) (Int), Knowledge (history) (Int), Profession
(Wis), and Spellcraft (Int).
Skill Points at 1st Level: (2 + Int modifi er) ? 4.
Skill Points at Each Additional Level: 2 + Int
modifier.

All the following are class features of the mystic blade.
Weapon and Armor Proficiency: Mystic blades are profi -
cient with all simple weapons, martial weapons, light armor, and light shields.
At 8th level, a mystic blade gains profi ciency with medium armor
(see Armored Mage, below).
Spells: A mystic blade casts arcane spells (the same type of
spells available to sorcerers and wizards), which are drawn
from the mystic blade spell list given below. He can cast any
spell he knows without preparing it ahead of time the way
a cleric or wizard must. When a mystic blade gains access to a
new level of spells, he automatically knows all the spells for
that level listed on the mystic blade?s spell list. Essentially, his
spell list is the same as his spells known list. Mystic blades also
have the option of adding to their existing spell list through
their advanced learning ability as they increase in level (see
below). See page 90 for the mystic blade?s spell list.
To cast a spell, a mystic blade must have a Charisma score of
10 + the spell?s level (Cha 10 for 0-level spells, Cha 11 for 1stlevel
spells, and so forth). The Diffi culty Class for a saving
throw against a mystic blade?s spell is 10 + the spell?s level +
the mystic blade?s Charisma modifi er. Like other spellcasters,
a mystic blade can cast only a certain number of spells of each
spell level per day. His base daily spell allotment is given
on Table 1?1: The Mystic blade. In addition, he receives bonus
spells for a high Charisma score (see Table 1?1, page 8 of the
Player?s Handbook).
Unlike a cleric or a wizard, a mystic blade need not prepare
his spells in advance. He can cast any spell he knows at any
time, assuming he has not yet used up his spells per day for
that spell level.
Armored Mage (Ex): Normally, armor of any type interferes
with an arcane spellcaster?s gestures, which can cause
his spells to fail (if those spells have somatic components). A
mystic blade?s limited focus and specialized training, however,
allows him to avoid arcane spell failure as long as he sticks to
light armor and light shields. This training does not extend
to medium or heavier armors, nor to heavy shields. Nor does
this ability apply to spells gained from a different spellcasting
class. At 8th level, a mystic blade learns to use medium armor with
no chance of arcane spell failure.
Mystic blade Edge (Ex): A mystic blade is specialized in dealing
damage with his spells. Whenever a mystic blade casts a spell
that deals hit point damage, he adds his Intelligence bonus (if
any) to the amount of damage dealt. For instance, if a 1st-level
mystic blade with 17 Intelligence casts magic missile, he deals
1d4+1 points of damage normally, plus an extra 3 points of
damage due to his Intelligence bonus. The bonus from the
mystic blade edge special ability applies only to spells that he
casts as a mystic blade, not to those he might have by virtue of
levels in another class.
A single spell can never gain this extra damage more than
once per casting. For instance, a fi reball deals the extra damage
to all creatures in the area it affects. However, if a 3rd-level
mystic blade casts magic missile and produces two missiles, only
one of them (of the mystic blade?s choice) gains the extra damage,
even if both missiles are directed at the same target. If a spell
deals damage for more than 1 round, it deals this extra damage
in each round.
Scrolls scribed by a mystic blade do not gain any benefi t from
mystic blade edge. Scrolls activated by a mystic blade also gain no
benefi t from mystic blade edge. The same is true for most other
magic items, such as wands and potions. However, staffs activated
by a mystic blade use not only the mystic blade?s caster level but
also gain the benefi ts of the mystic blade edge, if applicable.
Advanced Learning (Ex): At 3rd, 6th, 11th, and 16th
level, a mystic blade can add a new spell to his list, representing
the result of personal study and experimentation. The spell
must be a wizard spell of the evocation school, and of a level
no higher than that of the highest-level spell the mystic blade
already knows. Once a new spell is selected, it is forever added
to that mystic blade?s spell list and can be cast just like any other
spell on the mystic blade?s list.
Sudden Empower: At 7th level, a mystic blade gains Sudden
Empower (described in Chapter 3) as a bonus feat. If he
already has the feat, he can choose a different metamagic
feat.
Sudden Enlarge: At 10th level, a mystic blade gains Sudden
Enlarge (described in Chapter 3) as a bonus feat. If he already
has the feat, he can choose a different metamagic feat.
Sudden Widen: At 15th level, a mystic blade gains Sudden
Widen (described in Chapter 3) as a bonus feat. If he already
has the feat, he can choose a different metamagic feat.
Sudden Maximize: At 20th level, a mystic blade gains Sudden
Maximize (described in Chapter 3) as a bonus feat. If he
already has the feat, he can choose a different metamagic
feat.
