If you want a really cool mage, and don't mind taking a little time, you might try dual classing a fighter at level 7 (a fighter gets a second attack at level 7). This way, you could equip your mage with a helmet and shield(unless you want to use a two handed weapon), use elven chainmail(and still cast spells in armor), and use heavy crossbows or whatever you wanted. That doesn't include the incredible hit point advantage over traditional mages, plus you have a chance for exceptional strength, which is only available to fighters. If you plan to play Heart of Winter, you would do well to consider a Paladin for your pure fighter, since they have made tham immune to fear and disease now.
