Tenebraturge
Most spellcasters have their ways of influencing shadows. Devotion, study, innate ability, occasionally a combination. While most choose to cling to one, others decide to dabble. A rare few learn the secret to severing the borders between these magics, almost unifying them into a single practice.
Special:
Unlike normal classes, one cannot actually take levels in tenebraturge. Rather, they exchange levels in other spellcasting classes for spellcasting in this one. Upon attaining a new level, a character may exchange the spellcasting of 1 level of an arcane spellcasting class, a divine spellcasting class, and a mystery using class. This has no impact upon their saves, skill points, or class features other than spellcasting and mysteries. This is done in addition to gaining a level in a class.
For example: A character that is Wizard 1/Shadowcaster 1 who decides to take on a level of cleric may choose to exchange 1 level of spellcasting from each. While they become Wizard 1/Shadowcaster 1/Cleric 1, as far as spellcasting is concerned they become Tenebraturge 3. Following the example, a 20th level character might be for all intents and purposes Wizard 7/Shadowcaster 7/Cleric 6, their spellcasting could be Tenebraturge 18/Wizard 1/Shadowcaster 1.

A concept I had that is definitely a work in process. The idea is you toss away casting from a couple classes to gain a single casting progression/ability/ect. potentially even viability for entry and advancement via PrC. Im still figuring out how to phrase things and how to make things operate. Seeing as how from this specific structure the class doesn't actually exist prior to 3rd level, there are no class features for 1st or 2nd. I'll work on it, and advice would be greatly appreciated.
