Re: Defining pretenders
A combat pretender of the "Super Combatant" type will typically use magic to cast spells that augment his melee capability, like quickness, fire shield, iron skins, etc. A pretender with no magic seems like a bad idea.
The kind of "combat mage" you are probably thinking of would likely need to be immortal to be of much use.
A blessing pretender with 9 in something will almost certainly be a combat pretender, to some degree at least.
