Being evil involves more than challenging and killing everyone you see. That is just being stupid, and annoying. Again, roleplay takes priority. Please keep this in mind.
You will have to train both magic and sword skill if you want to be powerful in both - and while possible, this isn\'t realistic, considering the insane amount of tria and PPs you will need. You can dabble in both, but you certainly will not be a master.
Lemurs, Xacha, Nolthrir, Ynnwn and Dermorians are good races for magic, while Kran, Stonebreakers, Ylians, and Enkidukai make for good warriors. It\'s all up to you. Nothing is set in stone.
