Building a Dweomerkeeper

[CoolMatthew]

I've just got a few questions:

1) Can the "+1 level of existing spellcasting class" of the Dweomerkeeper (http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/we/20040522a) be applied to the spellcasting progression of the Mystic Theurge (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/prestigeClasses/mysticTheurge.htm)?

2) Is there any way to meet the "Domain: Magic" requirement without actually being a cleric? (I would prefer Archivist (http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/ex/20051007a&page=3))

3) Can the Obtain Familiar feat be taken by a Wizard whose caster level is higher then his class level? (And if not what can I replace my familiar with?)

4) Should I focus all my feats on metamagic or mix in some things like Obtain Familiar and Practiced Spellcaster?

I'm looking at something like this:

Wizard 3/Archivist 3/Mystic Theurge 1/Dweomerkeeper 10 at ECL 17

1. No. "+1 levels" like that can only be applied to a class that actually gives spellcasting, not one that merely advances it. However, "+1 level of existing class features", such as from Legacy Champion (WoL) or Uncanny Trickster (CScn), *would* advance MT.

2. A one-level dip into Contemplative (CDiv) will net you a bonus domain.

3. Yes, you can. Of course, there are many options to replace your familiar, not the least of which would be the alternatives presented in UA for specialist wizards.

4. Metamagic.

A few levels of cloistered cleric (wee I just found what it was a few days ago) gives you a cleric that has a wizard like flair.
