I have a first level evoker who worships the Flame with the Dragon Prophesier feat, because I thought it was cool and I was thingking of going Dragon Prophet. But there's a bunch of other cool stuff I want to try too.... sigh

1. One idea is to become a Silver Pyromancer. Looks good. But the Silver pyromancer looses 1 level of spellcaster slots, and looses another level for taking cleric to get there. One option is to take Sacred Exorcist to get the turn undead ability without taking cleric (anyone know another way?). But Sacred Exorcist requires that I have Dismissal, which is a 5th level wiz spell, which means even though I could have 10 ranks in know planes by 7th level, i have to wait till after 9th to get dismissal. BUT, if I take Arcane Disciple I can get the exorcism domain. Guess I need to bump my wisdom. and I'd have to take 3 levels of Sacred Exorcist anyway... Or is this stupid?

2. I really like the Dragon Prophet. I also like the Cataclysm Mage. But they both take away a level of spellcasting! So combining them reduces me even farther. Is this at all worth it, or should I just pick one and stay with it. I like the way the cataclysm mage fits into exploring the history of Xen'drik, with the quori mystery and the river of silver flame as well. Any suggestions as to which anyone thinks is better? I'm thinking there are probably some issues with the Catclysm Mage in the D&D campaigns environment (the personal prophecy, for instance)

This kind of reminds me of my own planned Flamic sorcerer:

Raptoran Sorcerer 6 / Fire Elemental Savant 4 / Sacred Exorcist 5 / Silver Pyromancer 5

He specializes mostly in fire and air magic and only sacrifices one level of spellcasting. As you can see, I'm taking the scenic route to Silver Pyromancer, but it's not a problem. He'll be most effective in the mean time.
