Most races have legends of warriors capable of performing unnatural feats. If they existed back then, these stories are possibly memories of early combat mages. As their name suggests, combat mages use their magic exclusively for the purpose of fighting. Though they are also hired for combating mortal foes, of greater interest to them is taking on the demons who still visit normal space.
The magic of the combat mage consists primarily of spellcasting. The process described in the Sorcerer section is used. It should be noted however that virtually all combat mage spells effect the caster only. Also the immediate nature of combat mage magic means they cannot perform ritual sorcery.
The combat mage can only use the Summoning skill for banishing as described in the Summoner section. However, unlike others who use the summoning skill, combat mages are capable of banishing any kind of spirit being.
