Roach Mage
From IPY Codex
The Roach Mage is considered the most defensive mage template that you can possibly build. With the use of parrying and healing you become a force that is extremely hard to take down. With no weapon skills you lack offensive damage but will make up it up with your defensive capabilities. This is likely a very strong template for Paladins considering the paladin shield will allow you to cast with it equipped.
Roach Mage Template
The Standard Roach Mage build does not use any weapon skills. So you will be without Tactics and a fighting skill but instead taking up Healing and Parrying.
