Abyssal Arcane Destroyer
http://www.wizards.com/dnd/images/bovd_gallery/88161_620_22.jpg
Sir Bodric the paladin walked walked wounded through the dark cold dungeon, he had lost his party and searched desperately for them. "Fellows!" he would shout "Fellows, I search for you! please tell me you are close!"
But he heard the sounds of a creature in pain and thought it his duty to aid it before he himself was to be saved. He found it with little difficulty, and in the corner of the room stood a sickly man prying dead and blackened skin off of his already mangled and boney hands and as he does, he switchins from cackles of masochistic pleasure to whimpers and screams of pain...
But they were also the last things Sir Bodric ever heard as he was obliterated in a burst of demonic fire at the hands of an Abyssal Arcane Destroyer.

Proficiencies: Abyssal Arcane destroyers are proficient with all simple weapons and two martial weapons of thier choice.
Frailty (Ex): The raw surging power that flows through them is not only dangerous to all around them, but to them aswell. The first time the Abyssal Arcane Destroyer casts a damaging spell of the evocation school he must make a fortitude save (10+highest spell-level known). If the save fails, they take caster level+spell level damage of the same energy type the spell being cast was. Should the save succeed, they may cast freely without making a fortitude save in order to not take damage for the rest of the encounter. Resist Destruction applies to this save.
Spellcasting: At every odd numbered AAD level, aswell as 10th, the character gains new spells per day (and spells known, if applicable) as if he had also gained a level in whatever arcane spellcasting class in which he could cast. He does not, however, gain any other benefit a character of that class would have gained. If a character had more than one arcane spellcasting class before he became an abyssal arcane destroyer, he must decide to which class he adds each level of abyssal arcane destroyer for the purpose of determining spells per day.
Damage Reduction (Su): at third level, Abyssal Arcane Destroyers gain Damage Reduction 1/cold iron or good, it goes up to 3/cold iron or good at 7th level and 5/cold iron or good at 9th level.
Demonic Might (Su): Through the brute force of the Abyss, the 'AAD' may add his strength modifier(if positive) to the damage roll of any evocation spell they cast. In cases of more than one attack roll (if any) is made during the casting of a spell, each attack roll adds the 'AAD's strength modifier. (ex. scorching ray or magic missile)
Resist Destruction (Su): the 'AAD' gains a +1 resistance to all evocation spells cast upon them every 2 level's at 2nd level. This also applied to saves against thier own frailty resistance checks, see above.
Quasit Familiar: the 'AAD' will gain a quasit as a familiar, whether they want it or not. The quasit devours the 'AAD's original familiar but the 'AAD' takes no damage or experience point loss.
Empowered Evocation (Su): at 5th level, all evocation spells are treated as Empowered spells and do not take a higher spellslot.
Balor's Gift: At 8th level, the AAD recieves a gift of a +1 vorpal longsword. They are considered proficient with it, but no other longsword if not already. Should the owner of this sword try and sell this sword, they are attacked by a balor within 1d4 days. Should the weapon ever be lost, it will not be replaced. Should anyone but the caster attempts to wield this sword, it loses it's magical ability until it goes back into the hands of the owner.
Power of the demons (Su): At 10th level, all evocation spells are maximized and empowered, but the frailty damage dealt to the caster on a failed save is doubled and a roll of a natural 1 on this save is triple damage. When this ability is gained, demonic might no longer applies.
Ex-destroyers: Should an abyssal arcane destroyer ever sway from his chaotic evil alignment, he loses all special abilities, but retains saves, base attack bonuses, spell per day/spells known and proficiencies. Also, if they should ever happen to becomes of Lawful good alignment, they are attacked by 1d4+1 balors. Although this may be averted with an atonement spell cast by a lawful good cleric of at least 15th level.
Edit: spelign airers
Edir2: balors gift can now only be wielded by caster without it just becoming a masterwork sword
and i'm sure this will need some balancing
