I have a faerie mage in my current party (levels 22-24), and she has more than a hundred points in each of the magic realms, so mana is'nt a too big issue. The spells I usually use with her are: of course the buffs: enchanted blade, missile shield, X-ray, fireball (I found that nuclear blast is rarely better, and costs much more mana), asphyxiation (I think that this spell is just great since there are'nt too many monsters with high air resistance, and it affects everyone in sight), set and return to portal at ferro (the priest has it somewhere else), whipping rocks (against large masses, with a powercast in the 90-s it deals 30-40 damage to every one of them at level 7), and sometimes crush against solitary enemies, and of course water spells in rapax areas and against fire resistant monsters. I found the mage to be very powerful later on, and the faster mana regeneration makes the faerie a very good choice, the only thing to be careful about is the low amount of hits (I hate nessie's first turn earthquake). So I would recommend keeping the character as a faerie, though that may depend on what else you have in your party (spell book overlaps).
